A daily reminder men are terrible. Pop star Duffy says she was raped, drugged and held captive. Welsh singer made statement on Instagram saying she was held captive for several days.

Ms Adequate posted:I mean, that's rape, right? Maybe the lodger was fine with it, but ultimately that's extorting sex from someone who is depending on you for a place to live. Even if you say "You can pay in cash instead that's fine", is that a believable thing in that situation? Is it worth risking your ire when you can just conjure up some nonsense and kick them out if you're mad at them? I dunno if it is legally pursueable or whatever but it certainly makes her a lovely person. Pablo Bluth posted:A daily reminder men are terrible. I think it might be power and its just typically men that have that?

Sorry, to clarify, I don't mean legally rape, I don't think it meets that criteria. Just morally, that's the kind of thing we would call rape.Pablo Bluth posted:A daily reminder men are terrible. Jesus Christ

I'm a little behind on Private Eye, but the edition before the current one told me that the largest individual donor to the Brexit Party is a British cryptocurrency investor based in Thailand, which raises more red flags than a loving May Day parade.

Yoooo can we be a bit more sensitive about the amount of detail written as the title of a link? At least give people the option to decide if they want to be exposed to that kind of information kthnx

We’ve been watching Celebrity Gogglebox over here in Aus which he is on and he comes across as a total arse. Plus he tries to show off by using chopsticks to eat and he has very bad chopstick technique that makes him look like even more of an arse.

Got my ballot. Who're we voting for? I don't want to look into this too closely. Is the UKMT approved list similar to the Momentum one? They text me the other day Despite myself I got the impression from various people that Starmer has this stitched up, so if that's the case then I'm thinking quitting in protest Hope yer all well x

I'm gonna cast this now so I can get it over with and forget about it. Literally ten minutes flicking back through this thread looking for discussion on it and already my mood's gonna be tanked for the rest of the day. Stay safe comrades

Momentum has a suggested slate which I followed of Leigh Drennan and Lauren Townsend, plus Nav Mishra if you can vote in the BAME slate.

Job application chat: If you are asked to send your application in via email and it's a form not a cv, do you put the text of what would be your covering letter as the email body text, or do you write a polite but very short email saying 'please find attached' and send in the 'covering letter' as a separate file or merge it to the front of the application form file? What do you think recent-job-hunting / recruiting folk?

Include the information you would be putting in your cover letter in the form, it should have a section for that sort of information (i.e. 'why do you want to work here, why do you think you're good for the position').

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Job application chat: I have no idea really. If I wanted them to read it on a bit of paper and see it all nicely presented as a proper letter then I would attach as a separate file, otherwise it risks getting printed out from an email and being a mess of forward forward so on gunk all over it and making me look like I don't care about presentation. But if they are only ever likely to read it on a screen then in the body of the email seems fine? I think I would still attach as a pdf though. But maybe the computer jobs you are applying to thats bad, so LaTeX.

Hello thread! I’ve been avoiding reading anything at all about politics since mid December (my brain’s just getting too broke with the absolute state of things) and that’s included this thread. The labour leader thing is happening and I don’t want to not vote, but currently have no idea. I trust you: who’s still a raving lefty in the party because they can have my vote? (I know I should read the thread or something but I really don’t want to, I’ll end up sad and angry and fighting with family again and I don’t have the mental capacity for that).
