Ah that explains why MPs and Lords protect us by taking as much of that shame on themselves as possible, and the more state money they take, the more shameful they look.

Well, if you assume that cutting benefits and imposing more penalties will lead to people dying, going to some sort of Afterlife where they are looked after by kind and benevolent celestial beings/sea giants.

So if all that does happen, then yeah, they would have more financial independence and a more fulfilling (after)life.

was written as a criticism of morally hollow American 'prosperity gospel' preachers, it wasn't intended as a blueprint for Conservative eschatology policy.

I'm sure that Braverman is jotting down "subscription plan afterlife" in an ideas jotter somewhere.

"Perhaps we grew more accustomed to “wild toileting” during the pandemic – sales of Shewees, for instance, the device that allows women to stand while peeing, and therefore pee where men pee, have boomed 700% since the first lockdown – and it has taken us a while to return to normal standards. It has always been a problem when large numbers of people descend on a place, such as the visitors to Cheltenham races last month."

Women, in mens toilets?!? *faux outrage*

Wild swimming is the loving dumbest term ever and only exists in the UK, because you guessed it, this country is loving dumb.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. It has, however, made him into a very, very smart boy with something like a university degree in Truth. Instead of building Communism, he now builds a precise model of this grotesque, duplicitous world.
And blood-black nothingness began to spin
Will you spend money?
A system of cells interlinked within
How will you pay nurses?
Cells interlinked within cells interlinked
How will you fix schools?
Within one stem. And dreadfully distinct
Will you tax the rich?
Against the dark, a tall white mountain played.

Eh, what’s wrong with wild swimming? It helps differentiate between swimming in a pool and going in a lake or outside body of water, which are quite different activities. Plus, wild swimming rules and pool swimming is boring

There's nothing wrong with swimming in a lake, but there's a lot wrong with dumping 5000 gallons of human effluent in a river and then claiming that it couldn't possibly be you who did that because you weren't even near the lake/river at the time.

Wild swimming in country lakes is fine. Giving 22 year olds 43°C fevers that cause their kidneys to shut down and land them on permanent dialysis because of the typhus in your poo poo arse feces water is not.

Is wild swimming becoming a synonym for the latter? Because if so I retract my previous statement about enjoying wild swimming

The way I read Diet Cracks post wasn't that there's something wrong with Wild Swimming the thing, more that it having it's own special name and people who get really into it and I assume legal distinctions is the dumb part. Then also the fact that in the UK you will be swimming in shite water if you partake (although I assume in most countries swimming in rivers near cities/towns will probably never be the healthiest.

On the other hand they tried out reinforced concrete using copper which has a different coefficient of expansion than concrete so that didn't workout.

This - if it's outdoors and in water, you're wild swimming? When was there a necessity for differentiating where you're swimming? It's almost as if for clout to be like "well I WAS WILD with it." Plus it sounds loving stupid.
