What if a journalist is looking at London Bridge and it falls down? How would they report that without everyone thinking the Queen is dead?

Azza Bamboo posted:One of my least favourite kinds of TV is those shows where they put together a bunch of clips from the past and then get some B list celebrities to reminisce over them. I'm willing to bet there's a backlog of royalist trash in that vein just waiting to come out. I want Danny Dyer and Ross Kemp to do a documentary about how tough she was.

notaspy posted:Remind me, what was the length of the queue to get to the Eternity Gate in 40k? The lore says it takes multiple generations to get through the queue, which does sound a bit silly, what do they eat, where do they give birth, why would the children who grow up in the queue not just leave? I guess we're about to find out.

Drone_Fragger posted:Only for you piss loving lager drinkers, where the carbonation is added afterwards, to make up for your weak and tepid yeasts. For the glorious ale master race there's no issue because most bottle finished ale carbonates itself. I've been thinking of starting to brew my own since Christmas is gonna suck if it starts costing like £20 for 4 beers or something, and I could gift people beer. Cavemen figured it out, why not me (they did a lot of things I couldn't figure out, I'm gonna gently caress this up)

big scary monsters posted:Nah brewing beer is easy. Get yourself a premade extract kit or just put the ingredients together yourself from a recipe, get a big pot to brew in and a fermentation bucket, follow the instructions and you'll almost guaranteed end up with something drinkable and alcoholic. If you get into trouble ask in the Home Brewing Thread. You can end up with some pretty decent results from your very first try. Thanks, bookmarked it.

HopperUK posted:My house was cold as gently caress this morning. I'm sitting with a heated pad behind me and a sleevy blanket over me and I am comfy as hell. Not sure it'll hold up once the temp plunges but I can add layers. We're thinking we'll run the heat down at like 15C or something and then layer up. My mum is a disabled pensioner and I'm going to be keeping a sharp eye on her. If she starts suffering from the chilliness I'm going to turn the heat up and tell the energy companies to gently caress right off, I suppose. Yeah mine too. I'm kinda thinking of rehoming my cats, it's not fair to them if I have them live in a cold house this winter. That would be a last resort though. They'll probably just rehome themselves anyway they know the neighbours better than I do.

Scientastic posted:I used to live in a tenement flat in Edinburgh, which we were too poor to heat, and my two cats were absolutely fine over winter, I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Cats have survived millions of years without central heating yes, but this generation of cats understand that there are houses that are perfectly warm and houses that are cold. I've already have problems with an old lady neighbour who would feed my cats fresh salmon and tinned tuna to try to steal them, at least they stuck with me through that. Btw the police literally laughed me off about that. Apparently Cats are "property" and I need to "secure" them.

There are genuine pogroms going on in India, but since India are an "ally" of the west (they do play multiple sides a bit), there's no need for that to be a big thing and it kinda just gets ignored in western media. India is a "democracy" too (as in it allows private profit for western investors). A lot of people who own the media have no need to talk about it. There are many conflicts around the world that just don't get talked about, a lie through omission. It's much more important when it's a statistical analysis of population/farming trends in the offices of a CIA thinktank against a current geopolitical enemy, in that case it'll be propagated everywhere.

There was a case in the US a few years back where a shoplifter ran outside of the shop with some crap, the minimum wage employee ran out after him and fatally shot him in the back and called the police, who then charged him with murder. His heroic moment, all that daydreaming, came to that.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Anyway, being anti-natalist makes sense from a selfish perspective if you don't expect to live long enough for those kids to pay for your old age. Anti-natalism is way too happy, optimistic, and anthropocentric. Read some Ligotti, and learn about how the existence of any life, anywhere in the universe, is a blight upon its serenity.

Angela Rayner can just vaguely mention being a socialist, play up her accent a bit, and then be the perfect Starmerite free from criticism. It's very tory. That whole ablative armor strategy. She can just come out with whatever dumb poo poo about being tough on crime and criticising Corbyn for antisemitism but it doesn't matter, she has the accent she must be one of us.

OwlFancier posted:I really wish I could throttle every one of the idiots who voted for this lot because god forbid we have nationalized industries. The energy crisis does seem to be making some people consider that these people are extracting profit while adding nothing. It's one of those doublespeak things, the selling off of our national assets that were built at public expense can be explained to the public as "investment" and then that word shorts their brains.
