But he won’t, for these two grew up together as brethren, and have shared the common bond of brotherly blackmail and the knowledge of where the remote control is buried.

I thought someone was going to start yelling “Shawn… Shawn… SHAWN!”

I think her predicament was self-inflicted and she was hoping for something better.

That or she is now cursed to forever be with this cat.

He would though. All the superheroes are the epitome of powerful right-wing nutjobs who take justice into their own hands without the consent of anyone else.

They do so by bootstrapping themselves using their innate power (or, uh, inherited wealth in some cases) to better the world to their image.

Their only saving grace is that they strive to uphold these meritocratic ideals to their purest form, free from corruption and marginalisation, which is often a far-cry from reality.

An Englishman, an Irishman, and a Scottishman walk into a bar and immediately begin urinating into their foam seats.

“What are you doing!?” exclaims the barman.

The Irishman zips up and replies, “it is my Celtic birthright to mark my territory from foreign invaders.”

The Englishman zips up and replies, “it was like that when I got here”.

The Scottishman carries on peeing and replies, “what does it look like I’m doing you daft cunt?”

That’s pretty thoughtful to put drink dispensers next to portapotty’s.

You have not peed in enough bars, friend. Once the conversational juices get flowing, people sometimes follow you in to the toilet to keep the conversation going.

Lmao, of course there’s a relevant SNL

Well I kind of agree with you there. How much of UK produce is actually sold in Tescos and Sainsbury’s, I doubt it’s as high as people think

Okay I must admit that the Geometry nodes + Grease pencil is a powerful artistic style

get a loan for

Yeah, and pay it off with what? A lot of farms run on really thin margins.

net assets of more than a million pounds, you’re not really working class

Again, I’m not so sure. Plenty of people I know work 2-3 jobs to make ends meet but happen to own a home they bought cheap before their area gentrified.

The housing market has severely skewed any sense of normalcy on land and property values, and it’s not like those who own houses are getting dividends on the change in the value of the house.

Manhattan TV seems to be a good product for me at the moment (UK). It’s got all the HD channels live, and you can easily record them to disk.

I miss the smoking indoors. As a child who would attend political events with my parents, it gave rooms a misty haze of mystery and intrigue. Plus, you could always tell where the real political tables were by the density of the fog hanging over the table.

If I had to live in a red country back in those days, I think I’d pick East Germany. Berlin in particular is where both powers were strutting their wares/values, so I like to believe that the East Berliners had it better than most

Maybe unrelated, but the US isn’t a country, its a fucking continent by European standards. I never understand why the progressive states don’t just split off and form their own union, and leave the regressive states in the USA.

If you’re not being represented properly, maybe it’s time to split.

(Yes Brexit was a mistake, but e.g. Scottish independence would have been interesting)

Hey. Cmon man, every instance has its agendas and bad apples. Some spread pro-US and anti-Russia/China rhetoric, others are flipped.

Yes, a minority of the mods are fucked in some of their values and beliefs but that’s true of any instance, and most of the time it’s not an issue.

We all harbour our strange 1% ideas that’s separate us from the norm, but that’s the beauty of the lemmyverse that you can find a server where that’s better represented.

Too much? Go to an instance where it’s not and chill there for a bit.

I guess that makes sense. I couldn’t do it myslef

Well, I did not really pursue my little princess with persistence and I was so low-key that she was unaware of my existence.

From a distance I desired her, secretly admired her wired her a letter to get her, and it went:

“My dear, my dear, my dear, you do not know me, but I know you very well, now let me tell you 'bout the feelings I have for you when I try, or make some sort of attempt, I simp - damn, I wish I wasn’t such a wimp - cos then I would let you know that I love you so and if I was your man, then I would be true, and the only lying I would do is in the bed with you.”

Then I signed “Sincerely, the one who loves you dearly, P.S. Love Me Tender.”
