Northerns are dumb racists who are mad Labour are wasting time on racism instead of things that impact them personally because of one geezer I spoke to with lightning rune tattoos on his bald head on Stockport High Street

Lol she didn't even do that she said look at all these Tory MPs supporting it they know northerners are racist unlike labour

I liked this response from The Indy's Jon Stone, as he torpedoes his chances of getting a job at the Guardian or the New Statesman any time in the next few years

He's one of the only journalists who isn't a monster. His thread of new labour being poo poo is great

Genuinely have no idea how I managed with a sub-40 inch TV. My eyesight was either amazing or we must have sat really close.

I can't really talk though, I'm the prick who starts messing with other people's TV settings to turn off motion smoothing. Most of the time they say they can't see any difference. :negative:

i loving hate motion smoothing and watching tv somewhere with it on

The thing I wonder about Elliott Page is that his role in the umbrella academy is female. Must be a bit hurtful to have to continue to play a female character on screen, if coming out as trans is essentially saying you've been pretending to be the opposite gender your whole life and don't want to do so any more.

For what it's worth, I don't feel male. I'm not sure i'd feel any better female, but I do get a bit of euphoria seeing faceapp female pictures of myself. I don't think I'm up for the hassle of having to explain what gender neutral means, so I'll probably handle the issue by not talking to people wherever possible.

That's a good point that I'd missed. Suspect we'll be seeing celebs/politicians find ways to categorise themselves to get a vaccine early on though (maybe an exception for public figures or something ridiculous).

I don't know how people can drink on flights, something about the air makes me feel hungover and awful ~45 minutes after having anything.

Stop flying on non-pressurised planes.

On that note I highly recommend going parachuting after the plague if you're able

I've already decided I'm going to give parasailing, possibly powered, a go in the summer because parachuting appeals but I know there's no loving way I'd ever be able to jump out of an airplane.

if you do it tandem you just shuffle along to the edge of the bit you jump off and your experienced partner does the jumping/pushing bit. i was so excited for teh whole thing i wasn't nervous at all but i do warn people that the harness can hurt your crotch
