  • Irish unification referendum by 2030, Sinn Fein leader tells Sky News

    Jump

  • Not sure I’ve ever even met anyone who’d care if Northern Ireland split off. Maybe some Rangers fans?

    There were literally decades of violence and terrorism over that, so clearly someone cares.

    That being said, But then I'm Welsh and live in England, I do not have a horse in this race. If the people in NI want to unify with Ireland and regain all their EU citizenship benefits as well as removing the whole "Northern Ireland border issue", then I wouldn't blame them at all.

  • Maybe I should at least reserve my real name on it…

    *gets asked for mobile number

    Nope, don’t care that much.

  • What do you think history textbooks will say 50 years from now?

    Jump

  • Oh, 100% agree. I was just answering the prompt "What do you think history textbooks will say 50 years from now?" in the most depressing way possible. I do not endorse Trump, Fascism or anything that will lead to a dystopian future.

  • Nice to see that old face again

  • I got fucking chills the first time I realised who he was. Then his total change of demeanour, then when he finally said his name. Ooh. 2007. What a time to be alive.

    Jump

  • “And that was the beginning of the reign of the immortal God-emperor Trump (praise him!)”

  • If that isn't a mood

    Jump

  • I really liked ’the Fam’. It was a nice change of dynamic from previous (usually) single companions. And different from the Amy and Rory relationship too - grandfather/grandson and Ryan not being romantically involved with Yaz just felt different.

    Plus they were all good fun and bounced well off The Doctor in their different ways.

    And Jodie Whitaker was a great Doctor too. While I won’t try and defend every idea in every episode, we needed the change of pace from a decade of Moffat and Segun Akinola’s music was also excellent.

    Thirteen gave me what I wanted out of a Doctor when she left - the desire for just a bit more time with her.

    Jump

  • My favourite Doctor is:

    1. Whoever is currently playing The Doctor

    2. Paul McGann (the film wasn't great but he was, and I wish we'd seen more of him than one mini episode and a quick cameo...)

  • Fuck this, fuck that, fuck you, fuck everything

  • It's the ciiiiiiiiiircle of lif *gets eye scratched out

  • UK’s poorest have borne brunt of cost of living crisis, says thinktank

    Jump

  • And I feel bad for those of them that didn’t vote Tory in the last couple of elections and didn’t vote for Brexit. The rest of them were turkeys voting for Christmas and the fact that they’re surprised about this means they’ll probably vote Tory next time too and think their problems are still due to immigrants…

    Not to exclusively blame them, of course. Tory scum are the root of all the problems and the sooner we take them out and shoot them, the better for everyone.

    If you had one chance to eat or drink something poisonous without dying or experiencing any health repercussions, what would you try?

    Jump

  • Fugu. I’m far too much of a coward to try it normally.

  • Haley loses Nevada GOP primary skipped by Trump to 'none of these candidates'

    Jump

  • More likely the D&D/fantasy version. Harry Potter called them “horcruxes”. Keep your soul in a box and whatever happens to your body, you can’t truly die.

    But I didn’t know they were based on Jewish mythology, so thanks for that TIL!

  • An Execution Binge in Iran

    Jump

  • How do we stop Iran killing their own citizens? I know, we kill them first! I are very smart!

    If you're cold, they're cold! Bring them in!

  • I’d assume they were still called “Woody” and “Buzz”…

  • Nah, cows can't move that fast.

    They can't fly either...

  • Man accused of destroying Satanic Temple display at Iowa Capitol is now charged with hate crime

    Jump

  • Ahahahahahaaha. Hahaha. Haha. Ah.

    Glorious.

  • Cover art from the Japanese print of Star Wars: Allegiance

    Jump

  • It just looks creepily like Mara's right arm is bending backwards.

    What a great pair of books though (Allegiance and Choice of One). Would have made a great Disney Plus series if that had been a thing back when they were released. Honestly, they could still do something similar. Cut out Mara (sad face) and the Luke and Han stuff, but a story about a group of renegade stormtroopers trying to make the Empire a better place by taking out pirate gangs and corrupt Imperials would be pretty awesome.

  • Maryland bill would force gun owners to get $300K liability insurance to wear or carry

    Jump

  • If your state doesn't have concealed or open carry laws, you can still 'bear arms' by having them at home and transporting them in proper cases, correct? So this isn't paywalling the right to own guns, just the right to take them around with you like a murdery little comfort blanket.

  • I'm a doctor, not a PhD!

    Jump

  • See, Disco had it right. Doctors wore white, compared to the navy blue uniforms of all the other divisions, including Sciences. Presumably during the war someone decided that your medic being conspicuously covered in blood gave a bad impression, that was downgraded to nurses (SNW Chapel) and the doctors wore blue (although the slightly lighter shade than science divison). Then later, nurses got blue as well (TOS Chapel). Or was Chapel a full MD by then? Not sure about that.

    Why is everything a sequel, reboot or remake?
