There's a reason it's not allowed in the EU.

Weirdly enough, the police is well educated over here. So they can't even claim ignorance.

I'm a cis lesbian and I'll punch anyone who's transphobic right in the face.

I also think it's rather sad that we're generalising in an LGBTQ+ space, of all places. Please remember that they want us to be divided because we're stronger when we stick together.

It's not a competition.

Screw subscriptions. They're invariably a rip off and I'm not made of money.

They consider trans women men, and men are smarter than women. That's what it implies anyway.

Rowling became a billionaire by writing popular books and selling the movie rights. She's a scummy person, obviously, but she didn't become rich by being one.

They don't adapt, though.

Misogyny in books. I was reading a Morse book. He described the woman of a couple from dyed hair to hammer toes but had no physical description of her husband whatsoever.

Mosaic crocheting. You can create blankets that basically look like quilts, or photographs (although I don't like the look of the latter).

Covid spreads easily because people who have it are often asymptomatic.

For god's, sake, it's been 3.5 years. How do people still not know this?

Alan Rickman - lovely guy but didn't take shit from anyone.

Karl Urban - didn't really speak to him, but his PA was very rude.

Kate Mulgrew - amazing lady, very funny and also absolutely lovely.

That makes no sense. Alabama is infamous for its racism

I have a suspicion they're an AfD supporter.

PS. "Did you comb your hair with a hammer" won the internet today.

I saw one of those just before I left Reddit. A woman slapped a guy with her flat hand (they didn't show you why) and he knocked her unconscious. And Reddit was celebrating the guy 🤮.

I wish actual humans would also stop reposting shit. Karma farming is not necessary on Lemmy or Kbin.

An ultra right wing populist is usually the worst choice. It's always the fascists who blame the other parties.

But being lame sucks. That's the point. Someone who is paralysed isn't going to say it doesn't.

Being gay doesn't suck so it should not be used to describe something that does.

It doesn't help when the same user posts the same thing over a bunch of instances. It's obnoxious.

Yes, not sure why the Guardian is reporting on this. I'm not even sure Threads is available in Britain.

This drug got a huge amount of public funding.

Aye. I even went to a couple of meets (PS Screw you, Lorry).

Because you can't afford to go to Italy?

The US used to have similar laws and nobody whined about free speech. Media outlets should not be able to lie to people. Period.

Just before the new covid wave nobody is vaccinated against. Nice.

And your notes don't suddenly increase the price of your storage.

Yup.

And IIRC, it was the UK that came up with the ECHR in the first place.

That's the only one that works.

I can't get it to work with Kbin. It only has a list of Lemmy instances and it doesn't recognise Kbin.

A lot of newspapers don't do it anymore either.

It's still used for book titles, though.

Well... If I never see a post about tech or a meme again it'll be too soon.

A jackdaw is a corvid but not a crow. I am determined to continue Unidan's legacy.

Corsica. The Calanques de Piana. The road is barely one coach wide, and it's got a sheer drop on one side and goes straight up on the other. Everybody parks on the passing places so if you meet someone you're screwed. I met a coach. Luckily I was driving a Twingo. I managed to get past it with one side of the car about 5 cm from the drop, with the coach driver helping me out. The coach badly scratched one of the cars parked on the passing place. Karma for the dumb tourist.

Ich meine, you're not wrong.

Meta gets paid a fortune to spread disinformation. That's why they're doing this.

Wow, he must really hate his wife and daughters.

Yes, I like tildes. Basically, it has less chance of misogynistic neckbeard.

How much did they pay you to say that?

I'm really worried that people are this ignorant about Meta/Facebook.

He's going to make it worse. Guaranteed. Look at literally every fucking other country run by people like this.
