Spent all morning getting mud and rubble out of the culverts and drainage channels around all our houses because of the flood warning, but I'm not sure if any of that was down to any prior pebble dashing of any semis that flank my mid-jitty?  Not going to be best pleased if he put a bunch of pebbles down one of those little culvert channels tho.

If his da was a toolmaker he should have made something to gouge the drain culverts with because it's very clear that nobody else has done it for over 60 years and a big flat screwdriver and a dustpan and brush was a better shot than anyone else had tried with.

^^^ apparently only blue octopi not pink ones. Next time they go on about Gordon Brown stealing all the poonds, seems like they're about to do the same thing UK Treasury set for £100mn windfall from nationalised banks’ pension funds Government took over Bradford & Bingley and Northern Rock during 2008 financial crisis https://www.ft.com/content/958b42eb-f728-41d8-8bc1-a83fc5f0651b non-paywall: https://archive.ph/pqAiH quote:The UK Treasury is in line for a windfall of more than £100mn as it takes control of the pension schemes of two banks bailed out by the taxpayer during the 2008 financial crisis.

I assume it will all pay directly into public schemes with provable returns on investment like feeding children in schools, or sure start schemes, or at the very bare minimum preventing the evils of Sir Humphrey Davy's laughing gas menace by giving them free school milk to waylay any concerns about vitamin B12 deficiency. No, just more funding for bollocks then?

Bollocks you say? It'll mean claims that tax cuts are now fully funded. Especially as they grow the economy.

Maybe whatever the person was using to write it with didn't have a % button on their gadget or know how to find it if they do? Also sometimes % doesn't render correctly or has alternative meanings when typed in text (as in how it is interpreted in html or a browser). That's how I always consider it anyway when I see it. Same when people use "deg" instead of the o symbol.

Ever since the post-9-11 fast-tracking of Islamophobia in the UK really kicked off, the Great Replacement types have tended to characterise their ideological enemies as a two-tier opposition of 1) naive, wet-wipe lefties standing up for 2) murderous foreign barbarians who are just waiting for their chance to oppress and kill their own allies once they seize power. It's not really driven by logic on the level you suggest, IMO. It's about spite and schadenfreude; the contemptuous expectation that anyone LGBTQ+ protesting in support of Muslims is going to get their just desserts for their ingratitude against the Great British society that's just about come around to begrudgingly tolerating them. (That'll show 'em!!) In my experience it's sadly quite an effective tactic, because it lets them dismiss any opposing views out of hand: you may think you're standing up for human rights in a complex situation, but your arguments are irrelevant, because you're actually a useful idiot giving cover to the irrational fanatic hordes, the rise of Sharia law, etc, etc. grobbo fucked around with this message at 11:04 on Oct 22, 2023 |
