So is she a terf, a melt or both? FWIW I listened to the first quarter of Wolf Hall on audiobook and it seems pretty good but I didn't get around to listening to the rest.

I'm going away for a few days tomorrow (finally getting to use an airbnb voucher for a cancelled trip over a year ago). It includes 3h on a train.

So I will be wearing a mask and a visor on the train. Windows don't open on modern trains so ventilation will be crap.

I've no idea how many people might be on the train! If it turns out I'm alone in a carriage I might remove the visor.

Trains are still not as busy as they were pre-apocalypse but barely anyone on them bothers with masks anymore. Be safe.

They should do an episode where there's no ingredients because the crops have failed

A cooking show where they can only used long life/dry ingredients or tinned goods would be fun.

Weren't people in this very thread claiming that Line Of Duty was brave for showing bent coppers, when in reality it's some of the most blatant copaganda in years lol

Not really? There's barely a handful of cops in the show that aren't scum (and even they're pretty dodgy in their own way) and the whole point is that the rot is far too embedded to fix.

The bent bastards at the top even use the 'few bad apples' defence. It's not subtle.

Our flat has a gas hob and we hate it. It heats pans more quickly but the ignitor is unreliable and my brain makes me check about ten times a day that it's not been left on leaking gas into the flat. If it wasn't owned by the landlord we'd have replaced it ages ago.

I can see the next civil war being triggered by the season cutoff for Bastani's compulsory Simpsons watching. Contrarian that I am I *will* be manning the barricades for the "Season 12 was better than Season 1" falangists.

I was gaslit into believing it didn't get good until season 3/4 for most of my life. Rewatching recently season 1 was actually legit great and a lot more clever than it was later on.

I wonder what kind of mental instability would make you care about having a crown on your pint glass.

Probably the same one that makes you care about your passport being dark blue or your electronics being deadly.

Absolutely baffled that there are real people out there that don't understand negative numbers my god

Numeracy is pretty terrible across the board in this country. A majority of voters don't understand the very basics of how marginal tax rates work, so it's not surprising that some people can't grasp negative numbers.

If you haven't been properly educated in it then the concept of negative anything is mind blowing.

Sky was fine for us until we upgraded to fibreoptic and the engineer disconnected our basic connection and forgot to plug in the fibre connection leaving us with no internet for a week. Didn't offer to refund that week or anything.

Enjoying decorating is frankly unhinged and I hope you get the help you need before you do something dangerous.

(It could be that I'm the weirdo here. People keep saying "isn't it satisfying when you're done?" and no, not especially, I just have a mild sense of relief and sadness at time that wasn't spent procrastinating)

Decorating can go gently caress itself but a weekend spent building IKEA furniture is incredibly satisfying.
