Bolognese chips used to be a thing in Northern Ireland- I remember getting it in a chippy there. In fact chippies in Belfast used to have quite a broad range of stuff you could have on chips: curry, peas, gravy, chilli, cheese or mixtures of that lot. peas + gravy was ace.

(You've got me on the lovely cartoonist bit though, sorry.  )I'd also like to know how someone got the username Communist Thoughts and didn't know that self-criticism promoting personal development is a thing in certain schools of communist thought.

Jedit posted:Anyone can make mistakes. An idiot is someone who makes mistakes but doesn't know better, and a oval office is someone who does know better but insists their mistakes aren't mistakes. You're neither. The whole point of my name is a quote from disco elysium where an actual practicing communist laughs at the main character for thinking he is one. One of your responses can be "but... I have communist thoughts in my head!" E actually there's a fun joke about self criticism too where that same character is recounting the defeat of communism in that universe and all his friends die in a horrible bombing campaign and he breaks ranks and flees in terror, the first thing he does after calming down is write a self criticism of himself for running Communist Thoughts fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Oct 30, 2020 |

I always enjoyed your cartoons and didn't think you were a oval office, I was sad to see how things unfolded. There was a lot of pain and hurt going around after the election. I mean I don't post much but I'd be pleased to see you posting again until I inevitably need to lock this thread and news in general out of my life again.

Azza Bamboo posted:I'm not talking about growth here. What I mean by "checked out" and "I am a oval office" is that I've become that much despised "I don't do politics" figure. I'm totally broken, done, just going to try and make life work in ways that are actually available to me. I mainly come here just to understand the headlines I see because it's still curious sometimes, but I don't possess the bravery to actually fight any more. That's why the people who believe that there's no such thing as society or that the individual is the natural unit of anything are always so miserable, even when they're loving things up. feedmegin posted:Edit: I too am Team Early Modern, Levellers were rad and it's the only time we were a Republic. Bring back the Commonwealth imo, though maybe with a bit less oppressing the Irish.  The acceptable amount of oppressing would have been shooting all the Royalist Old English landlords and using their ashes to fertilize the fields in Leinster so that their former tenants may have remained there. Also all of the King's descendants should have been exiled to Australia rather than mainland Europe, which as we had no idea where that was at the time could be accomplished by chucking them in the sea and claiming they were sent there. I still maintain that if Freeborn John were around today he'd be the sort of colossal dickhead that tries to bring up the Magna Carta and fringed flags in legal disputes.

Pistol_Pete posted:I wish political parties were obliged by law to release their membership figures on a monthly basis, 'cos I'd love to see what's happened to Labour's since Starmer took over. It'd be good to see it broken down as a number of people leaving and number of people joining instead of just the number of members at the sample interval. Only if I had to take a guess I'd say the number is probably not shifting, but in/out numbers may be larger than a steady hold would normally indicate.

I spent the last seven hours banging nails into masonry so I am feeling much better and also I have a persistent tingling in the fingers of my left hand. I think this is probably more fun than six hours of shrek interspersed with footage of T34s running over germans but not by much.

One thing that I've noticed is party leaders always just look completely hosed after a few weeks in post. Bojo turned to warmed up dogshit particularly quickly, but Starmer has got this miserable puffy gammon face to him that he didn't have before.... both May and Cameron ended looking much the worse for wear too. Corbyn managed to escape that.
