I’d gamed with a mate for years and went to his wedding. First time I’d ever met him IRL but sat on his table at the reception.
@SpoonCass
@cbell_cbell
Unfortunately we never got to meet his wife Polly and his two teenage boys but we knew them so well because every Friday night, from 9 o’clock we’d all sign in and chat shit until the early hours and I’d give my right arm for one more night listening to his West Country accent.

All this was whilst another member of our squad, Nick (we’d played BF together since Bad Co2) fought cancer, outliving his prognosis by 2 yrs. We were devastated and grieved him like the old friend he was. Gaming friends, are real friends

If you think people on benefits have such an easy life why don’t you hand your notice in, sit back, put your feet up and wait for the money to come rolling in?
The motion to remove the women’s and girl’s teams from Thornaby FC should never have been brought to the committee. I very much value women in football especially at a grassroots level, as does our Chairman. I am totally behind him and we will absolutely fight to right this wrong

This is the best response I’ve seen. My alcoholic sister moved back in with my parents and it was hellish for them. The negative impact on their MH was evident. Ultimately I took the impossible decision out of their hands and evicted her myself. Ultimately the best action for all

Deal with the traumatic events his family have gone through maybe? I hate to piss on your chips but somethings are actually more important than a game of football.

3 out of 4 women are raped by someone they know, so getting a man to walk you home doesn’t seem that safe neither does it? So no, it’s men who should absolutely look at their own behaviour.

@TheEricGoldman
It moves the plot forward because it drives a profane, fundamental change in Joel. Bill’s letter forces him to accept his role as Ellie’s protector. Yes, the letter refers to Tess but it makes Joel realise that in the situation he is in at that moment, it is Ellie he should save.
BREAKING 🚨 Thornaby FC's proposed new board has confirmed that they plan to reinstate their female teams.
🗣️ Alison McGee is in line to become their new CEO and says “there is so much potential for men and women together, girls and boys, one club."

Only because we’ve given them a legal route. I wonder why this govt hasn’t given the same opportunities to people from the Middle East, Africa etc?

@ShowTheSalary
Exactly this! I don’t buy into the antiquated idea of keeping salaries a secret and I have told my colleagues mine. Hiding it means that businesses can recruit skilled people from lower paid businesses/industries for less than existing workforce, driving down the avg wage.
Frankly I’m embarrassed by the fact that I didn’t know a lot of history of the roots of the tea, coffee and sugar industries and their connection to slavery past and present.
@JudeChels
It is valid because you have to realise that their staff stay because there’s no social safety net that would allow them to quit and search for another job; UC doesn't kick in for 5 weeks. Defending a business that exploits their workers and treats them poorly is a weird flex
@Ecclescakey
Respectfully, I’m more appraised of the details that you are. There are 2 sides to every story but that doesn’t mean that the truth is always somewhere in the middle; sometimes as in this case, one side is right and the other wrong.
I’ve bitten the bullet and put myself up for councillor in the upcoming local elections. I figured it’s high time I did and hopefully I’ll get elected to the town council so that I can help make a change for the better.
Attended my niece’s Celebration Hearing today at which she was finally adopted and the judge gave her a cute toy animal to look after “just like her new family will look after her” and honestly it was adorable

I disagree, to use an example from my own field (H&S) it’s widely accepted that the most effective way of reducing the total number of incidents is to deal with the workplace culture. You have to get down to the underlying root cause not just investigating individual accidents.
Had a Skype interview (which I hate) earlier today for a potentially huge promotion. I think it went well but you just never know do you. I’ve had interviews for jobs in the past which I thought went terribly, that I got and ones which I thought I’d aced which went no further 🤞🏼
I handed in my notice today to a company I’ve worked at for over 20 years. It was/is scary but I’ve been offered a new role for a company that really excites me, a chance to build something new and I couldn’t pass that up. Wish me luck!!

It means things like learning about consent, it means:
not accepting rape culture as the way things are
don’t blame victims for walking alone
Pull up your mates when they’re making ‘jokes’ about assault or just being creepy because that alpha male bullshit needs to stop.
@rodbishop15
You’re spectacularly missing the point of what defunding the police actually means. No one is saying disband them, we’re saying divert some of their funding to more appropriate areas such as MH professionals to deal with MH issues.

Same! I’ve always said that RJ took the story that was left him, the only way it could go IMO. Something traumatic has to have happened for Luke to cut himself off from the Force completely and it needed to be a part of Kylo’s turn to the dark side.

On one of my many failed attempts, the examiner turned to look at me at the end and said “I’m pleased to tell you Mr Genery, that you have failed your driving test”.

This is untrue by any logical measure. Even with ‘only’ 13.5m votes for, Blair’s winning majority was by 3.9m votes, the Brexit majority was 1.27m. That’s a much smaller % in relation to total votes cast and only a 2.8% between yes/no, so hardly the “biggest mandate” at all.

Your full confidence isn’t the ringing endorsement that you seem to think it is.

Well this is just wrong. I know that you think that you’ve kicked this thread off with a banker but it just shows how little you understand what you’re talking about.

As he says, it happened to his friend. If they didn’t want to press charges/go public then it’s not on him to do it, they should only do it when they are able to.

When I, a worker ask my boss for a pay rise I absolutely go in armed with all the reasons why I deserve it lol
You know what I also do, I share ALL the info with my co-workers too. My current pay, what I’m asking for, and why I’m asking; so that they can do the same.

Honestly the anger over this is stupid. Those bombers had, as all SW ships must have had, an artificial gravity in order to allow people to walk upright. Those bombs were affected by this as they left the ship; they then carried on in that plane in a downwards descent.
@ReticentGenius
Those two things aren’t mutually exclusive but you know that already. This is a well respected man who has spent his entire career educating people about natural history and yet here you are having paid your $8 thinking you know better…
