I hated Brexit when it happened and I hate it still. I knew exactly what would happen to the UK the moment it was brought to my attention, and couldn’t believe it even managed to pass.
I forgot how easy it is to rile up people for a cause they’re ignorant on by simply lying to their faces. It’s much easier to shout along with some fucking twat screaming about how “immigrants are bad!” than it is to sit down and actually read anything established economists are publishing about the matter.
It was a complete waste of time the moment the notion was even brought up, and the regret was inevitable.
My mother is Asian and my father is British. My father had a pen pal that was a friend of my mother’s, and my mother also decided to write to him. I believe they wrote for about two years before deciding that if they want a relationship, they’ll have to get married. So my mother moved to Britain and they were married within the month.
Before the internet (and Facebook) became more accessible, my mother would write to her family often and occasionally call, which was expensive.
My sister-in-law, the chillest and least likely person I know to ever say this, actually wished death on Trump the other day. He’s done so much global damage, and it hasn’t even been a year.
He’s an actual scourge.
I tend to prefer bigger games delay purely so they don’t release as buggy messes (hello, Cyberpunk 2077).
Hoping they use that time to refine what they have and maybe even have it ported to PC for release.

When our new kitten decided her favourite scratching post was the doorframe outside the bathroom, we went ahead and bought one of those hanging scratching mats to nail over it.
Saved the doorframe, and have a happy kitten.
I don’t think I’ve seen a more gen-AI game before in my life.
I just assumed she might be British due to spelling/tone. Cats have been around here for about 1,600 years and it’s considered fairly normal to let them out.
They should be rallying for his impeachment.
Lack of empathy, especially towards women, is generally associated with conservatives due to the current political climate. Whether or not that’s got any truth to it, I couldn’t say.
I just switched when the API nonsense shat all over the actually good reddit apps, since I primarily used reddit on my phone.
I saw lemmy touted as an alternative and figured why not?
Dad fell for a Microsoft key scam. They were calling him about invalid registration or something. Kept asking for £500.
Stopped calling after my infuriated sister, who was living with our parents at the time, basically bullied the shit out of them on the phone.
I’m not sure about other places, but in mod comments on Nexus it’s fairly standard to just reply in your native language and have the other person translate.
You’ll often see discussions with one half in English and the other in Chinese, for example.
Make America Great Again!
Spends all day every day fucking over the majority of the population.
Sure.
Just put the whole government in the bin at this point.
Trump is a genuine man-child. He probably doesn’t understand half of what he’s saying or what it means whatsoever, and why is “wokeness” even taken seriously as a political talking point?
He just does things he’s told to do like he has no autonomy, but I guess you can’t expect more from Putin’s licking dog.
I feel like this anger towards trans-lesbians is a spiralling problem caused by a minority of both groups acting out.
I had two trans-lesbian friends who grew increasingly aggressive and abusive towards me when they discovered I wasn’t attracted to them physically or romantically, despite me never claiming to be bi or lesbian in any capacity. It got to the point where I developed a fear towards them that I would liken to that of a fear of an aggressive, sexually frustrated man. I cut them off before it escalated to something more intimately violent.
I don’t hate trans-women or trans-lesbians because of it, but that’s because I viewed this behaviour as their own and not as a collective trait. It would be incredibly easy for me to just say all trans-lesbians are like that, and therefore I should exclude them from my life. But my experience is not unique, considering the growing disrest in the lesbian community.
