e: i live near here and cant decide whether it's natural letter dropping off or the folk who performed a Vandalism were too stupid to remove the G.

I live near there as well. Someone took the 'H' off the 'Shore head Café' sign to make it 'Sore head Café'. It's the closest thing to entertainment there, I think.

How much do you think she's getting paid for the story? Surely she's not putting her face on the front page of the sun for nothing? Wouldn't getting a cash sum from The Sun kick her off her benefits?

I think the nazi pug joke is weak and if you think it indicates he's a real nazi or anything by all means punch his face in, but I do laugh when diehard cop haters are like "Eh, poo poo joke, jail him for me, polis, please!"

that’s sad but it shouldn’t affect his twitter account’s output

He's been through huge personal loss, the great depression, world war 2, and has campaigned into decrepitude to maintain the NHS from the tories, but thank god Pissflaps is here to remind us that he probably doesn't maintain his own twitter account.

Now here is free money, this will go above 8 cents for yes sometime before march 31, if only due to noise. https://www.predictit.org/markets/detail/5049/Will-the-UK-announce-another-Brexit-referendum-by-Mar-31,-2019

It's horrible she's leaving behind a little girl. I don't think there's a worse way to die than through stupidity. Stuff like cancer is seen as a brave battle against a disease, and even stuff like drug overdoses are usually seen as tragic and symptomatic of the person having a lot of problems in their lives etc. Choking to death on jaffa cakes for the sake of a crap challenge is just embarrassing.

how did The Who guy evade prison ?

I don’t think he was actually in possession of any child abuse images, he used his credit card to access a website hosting them. He said it was to prove banks were channelling profits from pedophile rings. Whether that’s a load of poo poo or not the UK courts tend not to jail people as a first resort for non-contact offences unless they’re a clear danger or there’s some exacerbating factor.

It's your average english voter!; Giving yourself a rage induced bloodclot over nonces hurting children, but can't wait to make kids hungry, cold and traumatised with a tory government. It builds character! https://twitter.com/C4Dispatches/status/1200836894231126017?s=20

Unsure which way to vote considering the last results here. I suppose both would essentially be in support of Corbyn anyway so I should flip a coin or something?

Vote Labour you moron. “Vote Tactically” for what, do the Lib Dems can go into coalition with the loving Tories? don’t be a rube.


Vox Nihili posted:

The only reason to vote SNP would be if you're in a district where only SNP or Tory stand a chance. In your district voting Labour is downright obvious.

Well my Labour candidate is pushing a big "Stop indyref 2" thing and I'm pro-independence. Plus it's essentially a given that the SNP would back a Labour government. Will probably just throw my hat in for the jam man anyways while I still have a sliver of hope that England isn't doomed to perma-Tory hell.

Please don't feel bad for staying with your parents, the most important thing is you're somewhere safe with people you can trust. I'm sure there's ways you can show your appreciation by doing housework etc. if you're up to it.

Speaking as a borderline alcoholic: if you're in a bad mindset, drinking that amount of booze can just as easily strip away your capability to cope, and has the potential to make anxiety far worse.

Nobody knows how this election will pan out, the exit polls have the potential to not be fully accurate.

There's nearly 2 hours til that point though and if you're half a litre deep already and feeling like this, I cannot imagine you're in a good position to receive bad news.

For what it's worth, I'd recommend getting to bed before 10 and reading the results in the morning if at all possible.

Also no matter what, don't check out before your time, as tempting as your final suggestion is.

In a way it's simpler/more relaxing for me replacing my conflicted political views and fragile sense of hope with: Take a saw to the English border and float away to the undying lands.
