I was thinking about this and it's not that dumb. Anyone trying to watch a clip is going to be wondering why Starmer is covered in glitter, so any news covering it is going to have to include the clip of it being thrown, Starmer rebooting, and the guy shouting his manifesto (or at least that seems to have been his intent before being tackled).

I guess I've just become accustomed to protests being more milkshaky or roadblocky.

That’s cool, if a somewhat random choice for Bristol. No Black UK women to make a statue of? Still, one statue is better than no statues.

I worked with HeLa cells when I was a cell biologist. Those things are a mess. Poor her :(
Yeah I can understand the idea behind not making her legacy tied to a single nation, because places the world over benefited from HeLa cells without her consent, and if it gets people talking about medical ethics then the statue is doing what was intended for.

There's a Mary Seacole statue in London outside of St. Thomas' Hospital that may have been a more appropriate Bristol choice.

I only know Tom Harwood from Twitter, and assumed he was just one of the young nepobaby GBeebie presenters. I didn't realise he had a loving BBC job, but the reply to the video explains why he's at the BBC and is a factoid I forgot over time.

Yeah, and the artist is a black Bristolian artist who'd been working with Lacks' family for years and suggested to the university cell biology dept that they honour her, so fair enough really.

I'm sure everything's fine and above board. Remember that he used to be a leading Human Rights Barrister, and he has a 100% unblemished record from his time as DPP and has never told a lie in his life. He also won the Colgate freshest breath competition for 5 years in a row. The man is a living god.

The museum was indeed good but a little jarring to come out and walk back to find st peters square swarming with cops and a big TV advertisement van promoting the concept of Israel.

Spotted this interesting floor plan while looking for properties.



It seems that to make use of the bidet, you must first shuffle yourself out of the toilet (assuming someone hasn't left the living room door slightly ajar and trapped you in there) and along the hallway, while your trousers are around your ankles, and then into the bathroom. And then after using the bidet, you get direct access to the garden where you can have a quiet sit and think about what you just did

just go up the garden and slide your hole along the grass like a dog imo

If your car bursts into flames, destroys a 20million pound carpark, all the hundreds of other cars in it and grounds hundreds of flights at an international airport for a period of hours/days costing hundreds of thousands of pounds in cancellations and refunds, do they put up your car insurance rate the next year?

The real worry would be if the cost of damage and injury etc exceeds the amount they'll cover you for public liability

E: or they find the remains of an aftermarket stereo you didn't declare on your insurance and they decide to void your warranty

Dunno, but you'd better hope that the people who know the car you drive, where you were flying from, and the fact you don't have a car when you get back... like you a fair bit, Otherwise, someone's getting named and shamed in true Long Pooden style

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.

You don't have to deal with higher rates if nobody is willing to offer you insurance *taps side of head*
