Same cause as a lot of problems: the UK has an incredibly right-wing press (mostly owned by a few billionaires) that pumps out propaganda all the time
It would be a mistake to think that what has happened to Britain since 2010 is an accident, an unforeseen side-effect...
Short-term thinking has been the fatal tendency of the Conservative governments to which Britain has been subjected since 2010.

I think the truth is women do like muscly men, but men tend to overestimate how muscly. Like swimmer physique is attractive, hollywood batman physique is male power fantasy; or something
There's really no good reason to believe that the devourer is Chronos/Saturn, that the devouree is even a child, or that either body is male.
There is a good reason to think it's a child - it looks like one. Just not necessarily the child of the devourer

I meant cheese made/available in the US, rather than any specific type called "American cheese". But thanks for your answer
Is American cheese any good? TV shows seem to imply it isn't but it seems weird you wouldn't have good cheese by now

Oh my god who cares, shut the fuck up
I'm not really involved in US politics, but how do you change the voting system away from FPTP while still voting for Biden, who (as far as I'm aware) supports FPTP?

Worth remembering that it wasn't always a free-for-all before minimum wage was introduced. I think there was a mechanism to set minimum wages by industry, which got dismantled by thatcher (not sure on specifics but pretty sure there was some mechanism to set minimum wages).
They keep emailing me to say mine has reached its end of life and needs to be replaced - and yet funnily enough it still works while all these smart meters don't
Does everyone know they're not real? I'm not suggesting they are real, only that for all I know the quality of these fakes might be convincing.
Whether this story is "overblown" or not is subjective I guess but the victim's being "creeped out" does seem like actual harm to me
In just over a month, 11,200 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza by Israeli forces. This cannot go on. Labour MPs must put themselves on the right side of history and vote for a ceasefire, writes former Scottish Labour Party leader Richard Leonard.

The Ofcom GB News ruling shows the regulator is as mighty as a drain fly when it comes to doing anything about Tory MPs posing as journalists
Ofcom has found that a GB News show presented by two Tory MPs breached its impartiality rules. However, the regulator only scalded the far-right media outlet over it not airing differing views. Ofcom failed to rule against the fact that two sitting Conservative MPs were posing as journalists interviewing a sitting Conservative minister.
The problem here isn’t the fact GB News is a screeching, far-right foghorn amplifier. At the Canary we’ve never claimed to be impartial. They and we are private entities, and that’s our right in the UK. However, while GB News can present its programming with whatever ideological stand point it wishes, it should not be allowing sitting politicians to do it.
The UK’s democracy is already a shambolic farce, which has become increasingly worse in recent years. Allowing sitting MPs to present news programmes is the thin end of the wedge. Ofcom, with all the might of a drain fly, is failing to act quickly enough to stop this practice before even more damage is done.

A farmer was forced to shoot the escaped dogs as they terrorised his defenceless livestock
Two escaped dogs savaged a flock of pregnant sheep, killing 22 and injuring another 48, before the out-of-control American XL bulldogs were shot. A farmer turned his gun on the pair of escaped animals that subjected his livestock to a brutal attack on a Welsh farm.
The financial cost of the incident, including the numerous deaths and injuries, amounted to more than £14,000.
The owner of the two dogs – David Hughes, 26, of Pen y Wern, Rhosllanerchrugog – appeared at Wrexham Magistrates’ Court where he admitted being in charge of a dog dangerously out of control and being the owner of a dog worrying livestock. Hughes was banned from keeping dogs for five years and ordered to pay £900 in fines.
