I have, in the past, when faced with a shortage of the necessary ingredients to prepare a campari spritz, made an entirely drinkable alternative out of Irn Bru and gin.

m2-res_480p (1).mp4 Oh no! He said the quiet part out loud!! Edit: insert laughing emoji here ↘️, then continue to ignore the problem...

Ahh man, that's devastating. Poor wee thing.

That's horrible to see. Good on you for stepping in, but yeah, people can be shite. I nearly mashed a young cyclist once, I had just dropped off my son at his montessori and was driving around the compound to the exit, a Ukrainian refugee girl comes barrelling around a sharp corner and down a hill... there's about 40 families housed in a disused maternity hospital on the same site... no brakes on the donated bike she's got... I managed to swerve off the single lane, one-way road so she hit the side of the car at a sloping angle and slide along it instead of straight into the bonnet at 90°, god knows how it would have ended up otherwise. I was only going about 8kph and had stopped before she impacted, but still. Got out and picked her up, rubbed her grazed knee for a bit, tried my best to fix the f*cked up brakes on her bike. Poor thing was in bits at first but had put a brave face on it by the end. Not much point to this story other than only donate toys to refugees that are in good working order, I suppose. Anyway, today I'm pulling all the bindweed out of my folks compost bins, fruit patch and apple trees, and we'll take it from there. Have a good day everyone.

So, on top of the pancake stack of (false, obviously...) sexual assault allegations, what do people think about these crazy ideas that if Trump wins the next election there won't be any more elections? (Edit... there's a lot of these giggling little buffoons down in the bottom right corner of this post... but no-one actually addressing the question... As usual! See the video posted below, where King Donald the First promises no more voting!)

Donald Trump, the president of the United States from 2017 to 2021, has a history of insulting and belittling women when speaking to the media and on social media.[1][2] He has made lewd comments, disparaged women's physical appearances, and referred to them using derogatory epithets.[2][3][4] Since the 1970s, at least 26 women have publicly accused Trump of rape, kissing, and groping without consent; looking under women's skirts; and walking in on naked teenage pageant contestants.[5][6][7] Trump has denied all of the allegations.[7 ... "Can you imagine how controversial I'd be?...You think about (Bill Clinton) with the women. How about me with the women? Can you imagine?"[179] Trump's top strategist, Steve Bannon, said that Trump lawyer "Marc Kasowitz 'took care' of 100 women during the [2016] presidential campaign".[181] ... Mariah Billado, Miss Vermont Teen USA, is one of five women to mention such a dressing room visit incident in 1997.[173] Billado said of the visit: "I remember putting on my dress really quick, because I was like, 'Oh my god, there's a man in here.' Trump, she recalled, said something like, 'Don't worry, ladies, I've seen it all before.'"[31] Billado recalled talking to Ivanka, Trump's daughter, who responded "Yeah, he does that."[31] Victoria Hughes, Miss New Mexico Teen USA, also said Trump did conduct a dressing room visit, and that the youngest contestant there was 15.[173] ... Ehh, what's the point. You'll never hear a bad word said about your God Emperor. You're in too deep.

Yeah, if there's any other shops available, just don't bother with him. Sounds like he's not worth the hassle.

I'm in the UK for a week doing a few garden tidy jobs for my folks. I flew over Ryanair, so I didn't bring a single thing with me. They've got a few tools available, but no saw, so they asked the fella across the road if I could borrow his for a couple of days... He brought it round earlier, and after a few minutes of jiggery pokery we got it working... I've never used a 171 before, and I've only just spotted the plastic dogs... That is absolutely f*cking adorable! 😹

Jeez, would you not buy a girl a drink at least before you try and slip the finger in?

Told you! Told you!

It's a real breath of fresh air when you show up J, I understand why you aren't here more often, and frankly I don't blame you. But it is hugely important to give a little pushback when these bootlickers are spewing their bile and hatred, so that anyone who reads but doesn't post on the forum (because they are there, lurking, who knows how many, but they are there) can see that their disgusting opinions aren't acceptable, and they don't speak for everyone. Unfortunately, arb work does seem to have more of that sort of person, so while the voice of compassion, tolerance, and reason can seem a little quiet at times on here, we do still exist. I'll suggest an answer to your two points if I may, regarding the WW1 dead and the disabled reporter: they will either ignore that kind of behaviour altogether (let's be honest, noone is going to give you an answer), or they agree with it. Because they hate everyone.

Ehh... no. I don't think that comparison stands up to much scrutiny.

That's certainly one way of looking at it. vhys086bsred1.mp4
