Some of the non-alcoholic beers they have these days are really good. I went to a pub on new medication that can’t be combined with alcohol, and kept having to double check my beer was really zero - I could straight up not tell

And if I’m honest the books are similar. I like them, but all the women are super sexy super hot and they exist for Geralt to have sex with

For those who don’t want to click: it’s the meme coin

Connolly’s husband lost his seat

Oh good

as Reform UK took control

Oh no

Fable II was the perfect intersection of jank weirdness and genuine good-game-ness

I’m no expert but Wikipedia says 15m is wounding range? I’m just wondering cos I don’t know if you can throw a grenade more than 50m

I’m the same, I couldn’t be bothered this time so I told him I wouldn’t help. Didnt know he was gonna do that, I feel guilty now. But I like to role play so hey it’s just more lore for my character

Irregardless, I think their making a joke

Where do many of these students come from, who are they, how do they get into Harvard, or even our country - and why is there so much HATE?

The Harvard Corporation is run by strongly left-leaning Obama political appointee Penny Pritzker, a Democrat Operative, who is catastrophic

What a completely normal and professional letter

He didn’t take out the cop that killed his son, he drove into a random deputy on traffic duty.

And this incident happened the morning after his son was killed - although I agree there’s never much hope for the system to police itself, this was too soon for any prosecutors or judges or anyone to have failed to hold the cop accountable

I think that’s a very narrow view of religion though, albeit one that is true of a lot and I agree is toxic. Ironically since you’re a UK person, it’s a type of religion I associate with the US and the American right (though I also know through friends growing up that it can be fairly common in some Muslim and Hindi groups)

I think a lot of times religion is used as a kind of cultural link: ‘this is why we have these traditions, this is a moral we have that we can explain with this story’ etc. And with that context I think it can be fine, even helpful to raise someone within a religious tradition

I guess I broadly agree with you mostly, but I would say that religion can be coherent with critical thinking and open-mindedness: it’s cultural as much as its about fundamental belief

(and when it is about fundamental belief then yeah it’s often awful)

“what is a personal pronoun”

These 100 year old Kentuckians are far too woke

This book was funded and published by Uri Tzafon, an extremist fringe group that even the Israeli Government distance themselves from

I’m not pointing this out to try and downplay the genocide in Gaza or ignore illegal settlements, and of course there’s a discussion to be had about the extent to which small radical factions can reflect and influence the political mainstream

But its a bit disingenuous to present this as just an ‘Israeli Children’s Book’. It’s kinda like calling Nick Fuentes an ‘American Journalist’
