STOP! That’s my drag stage name!

No.

I have no idea but I just made some pancakes with dehydrated apple slices in the mix.

It could just be a coincidence.

Great, thank you. Good to know. I’ll file that away in the old bonce.

I’ll withdraw my statement on the off chance that his family did in fact take part.

He’s still an entitled twat and utterly out of touch, but that’s another argument.

I’m afraid I’m referring to his Indian heritage. Although, to be fair, I have not done the research to find out whether his grandparents / greats were in the UK at the time or indeed participated in WWII in Europe.

Yeah I get that the sentiment appears to sail rather close to the wind, and I’m not racist.

I merely think he may not have as deeply-felt reverent ideas about the day as other Brits.

No disrespect to his heritage, but it may not ring quite the same for him.

He’s certainly got his priorities.

To be fair, he wouldn’t have lost any ancestors in D-Day.

I was just pondering this on my way to work. Balzac’s “Behind every great fortune is a great crime.” (I’m doubtlessly misquoting it)

Whether it’s directly adjacent the monetary gain or displaced by distance and time, it always holds true.

I voiced a calm opinion. Others seem to be more ‘engaged’ in trying to shout me down. Just as I thought might happen.

Yeah I hear you. TBH I think it’s because Lemmy is so quiet, sometimes 100% of the time in some communities, that I frequently don’t care what sort of engagement I get as long as it’s something.

Chasing the dopamine of social interaction I guess.

I can’t promise to only foster empathy everywhere but I’ll do my best to be cool here.

As long as you’re not Armalite!

TBH I actually have a lot of empathy but I also love going off half-cocked online. Probably as a release valve for my inner demons which don’t get exercised enough in daily life.

I’m rarely actually serious (apart from my hatred of the disfunction-by-design of the RightWing) but it’s easy for that to get lost in translation.

Poe’s law etc.

I’m glad someone did this study, even if it’s not going to change my use of the slur against rabid gun owners.

Funny how people get so butthurt and rage-filled when it comes to aesthetic opinions.

Oh I’m just spouting off occasionally with hyperbole, rants and un-serious trolling.

Don’t sweat it.

I’m not talking about a cup of oil, just a tsp or so. Sometimes all our kindling etc is a little damp and stuff seems reluctant to get going. The oil or even an old tea-light paraffin candle helps it marvellously!

Fuckin tell me about it.

Scots take few prisoners, in humour.

… and they are wrong. It’s imbalanced.

I understand that, But they’re still wrong.

Yup Hamas Kindergarten. Sooooper dangerous.

I still don’t like it. It’s not a logical placement of strokes. No I don’t care that the Kanji ultimately means ‘5’.

I don’t like it. It’s aesthetically displeasing with no logic.

I never liked U2 after they got all up themselves anyway.

The Asian one makes no sense.

TIL that tiger sharks can hunt in bush land.
