I’m a rail worker and RMT member. Voted no to striking but went out on strike yesterday. Feels good sticking it to the man. Been a great and truly awkward atmosphere today back at work. I’m not on any social media but I’ve got some absolute gold iosm style posts from a WhatsApp group of union members I’m in.

Can’t post them obviously but it is great seeing people who were led down the garden path by the tabloids finally realise that their media of choice isn’t always right. Funny how it’s not funny when they come for you.

They also pick the people who run it and most of the people who present for it are card carrying tories, and the tories recruit a lot of their comms people from the BBC.

So, like, the dislike seems rather performative.

Oh no!😱

The BBC as a news organisation is pro establishment and conservative (small c), not specifically pro tory. Its a fine line and a real loving subtle distinction as those things have a hell of an overlap, but there you go.

It's archaic now (most use bachelor party) but over here in God's Country I've heared stag party and stag film and such but do used in this way is new to me.

And I guess they use hen for the female version because otherwise you'd have a doe do and that would just sound silly.

I was gonna say, aren't there quite a few Youtube channels of "young couple lives off the grid"? I know this because they like to make the thumbnail be the lady while she's showering or doing stretches or whatever.

As in many cases the US prefers the privatised approach of many layered systems of economic and social incentives that ensure that only an insignificant number of people get to hear things that would be inconvenient to those in power whereas the UK adopts the state controlled approach of making it simply illegal.

Unless they're writing about trans people, then they'll gleefully post an article about how trans women are rapists with the only source being an anti-trans hate group and include quotes from a cis lesbian rapist who has called for literal genocide against trans people and include no quotes from actual trans women for balance in the article.

There's a lot of jokes to be made about how a poo poo ton protein powders and muscle builder stuff and what not contain soy, but they are technically correct that if you are trying to build muscles, eating soy to the exclusion of all other foods, wouldn't be a great idea.

Most certainly related to everything involving crypto/NFTs being a scam/illegal/both. It's all the lowest-effort trash humanly possible. The ongoing ape event in NYC invited Amy Schumer to open, for reasons that escape me, and she apparently spent the whole time making fun of them. The fact that it's going on while the entire crypto ecosystem is falling apart is extra hilarious.

Wallet drained, all my slurp juice gone

For context, that monster's article was filled with so much hate and anger towards trans women, that it made MY stomach churn as a cis woman's. Literally just "De-transition and apologize, or us lesbians are going to kill you".

That's not true, they did have quotes from a trans women! It's just that women was also a piece of poo poo who agreed with the rapist.
