Maybe not as important as the snoopers charter or brexit, but it's one of those things where I honestly have to sit back and think a moment. I enjoyed Rugby because I was poo poo at football and it provided an alternative way to take part in that social element of school. But on the other hand, it does gently caress kids up and there's no real good reason aside from 'character building' (I prefer to read this as social moulding) bullshit given by coaches and whatnot.

loving hell I broke my nose the last time I played rugby and i have to say seriously, harden the gently caress up, you're going to get injuries in any sort of sport and rugby is probably a darn sight safer than american football.

I played rugby in school. Well, I played for the school twice. We got utterly steamrolled both times, and my memory of the first game is pretty much non-existent because I got a big concussion after a hefty tackle (not helped by the fact we barely got any training in so nobody actually showed me how to take a tackle safely), was taken out of the game for about one minute to "catch your breath" & then sent back on. Which is kind of bonkers in hindsight.

if you tackle properly in rugby your head shouldn't get hit, I agree that being pushed out on a pitch to play for the school team without any practice is bonkers. My secondary school was in the countryside (think hot fuzz) so it was a state one but had plenty of rugby pitches and you started from year 7.

Yes, existence is monstrous. Do we do something about it or shrug and say "it wasn't just me who made existence monstrous"?

it doesn't really matter who made it this way, it's doing something about it and there's no value in berating people for their participating in this broken society unless you yourself are living off grid in a totally sustainable way.

let's all try to decrease the harm and increase love and positivity, working towards actually making some changes rather than this ouroboros of trolling and poo poo posting.

I admit I'm not hugely knowledgeable about how the sex industry works beyond 70s films, but isn't the entire reason pimps exist specifically because the entire practice is illegal and it's not as if the prostitutes he's got a hold over are going to go to the police because they've got a much higher chance of being thrown away than he does?

It's essentially domestic violence without any sort of legal structure to deal with it. Not even the poo poo structure that exists with regular domestic violence.

Good pimps exploit but also protect, from the Law, from Violent Johns.

This is a really good documentary about the subject.

If it makes you feel any better I then got a probation for lollin at our favourite ex-patriot.

it's no biggie, I just thought it was funny that someone reported that as you know it's a game of muscly men grappling one another and because they're pretty much all backs so there's no fat dudes like in union, but whatever, it's cool.

America has longer opening hours generally and it's bloody awesome, I work 9-5 so if shops shut at 5.30 during the week that sucks. sometimes I can't get everything I want on a saturday and am doing stuff on sunday so being able to go to the grocery store at 10pm on sunday is quite useful.

Plenty of people do not work monday to friday 9-5 and quite frankly that so many of you are willing to arrange the whole of society around the capitalist work week is loving shocking. let people decide when they want to work and when they want to have time off.

what about the loving jews or muslims who have their holy days on different days of the week??? what about them, sunday as the sacred holy day of rest is no bloody good to them.

fucks sake. open it all up, let people decide what they want to do.
