The good news is we can negotiate how we handle crimes against society and arrive at equitable and balanced judgements. The bad news is only rich and influential people are provided this luxury.

It's difficult to overstate the importance of education. I went back to school at 32 with very little formal education. It was tough but having graduated after ten years I never regretted it. I'm doing a job that I love and have more employment options. Whether or not you go back depends on many factors, especially if it is a serious investment in time and money. I didn't like my work and that was what motivated me but I had savings and no debt or responsibilities.

If only there was some way to check if they are lying.

Seems like the Aussies assessed the evidence, figured out that social media does more harm than porn and took the appropriate action. The English worked backwards from the assumption that porn does more harm and allowed social media to continue spreading its poison. Classic English values.

They are probably holding two partially contradictory concepts of masculinity in mind and trying to find the tiny population of men that exist in that intersection.

They are seeking a warm and considerate racist or a strong weak man. Good luck with that.

Most domestic insurance policies do not cover the use of a vehicle on company business and your employer would become implicated in the event of an accident. This necessarily implies that driving to work is not company business which doesn't make sense to me. Do they think I was out for a drive each morning and just so happened to be in the vicinity of my workplace so I thought why not drop in for a shift? Them's the rules.

If you do get into an accident and they ask you 'what gear were you in at the moment of impact?' Tell them Gucci sweats and Reebok Classics.

How can we have a surplus of soy boys and soy beans at the same time?

It's ofcom but my phone desperately wants it to be Offcom for some reason

Offcom has been drinking, came home in a blackout and committed domestic abuse of 4chan. Does Offcom even internet? Alternative plot twist, Offcom is trolling 4chan.

I wanna say that Offcom is doing a good job and trying to protect British people in good faith but I feel like they are being used as a cudgel by the British ruling class to advance an anachronistic agenda. Don't forget, they fired their expert drugs advisor for telling them that MDMA is comparable to horse riding in terms of safety. They want certain things to be true, regardless of the scientific accuracy.

If only someone warned us about uncle Joe ahead of time, like around 2020 when his platform grew exponentially due to COVID misinformation.

another to Obama

Donny still not got over that joke at the white house dinner. It would be hilarious to give Obama an award for services to immigration or golf.
