Re: No interest?
White slaveholders often used Black overseers to beat and whip their slaves (sometimes to death) in order to keep them in line. That didn't in any way mitigate the racist nature of slavery. Likewise, the fact that Black cops are sometimes the ones who do the dirty work does not disguise the inheren...

Re: End times
More people under 40 in England and Wales now declare “no religion” than profess to be Christian – the first time the UK’s dominant religion has been pushed into second place in any age group. The striking census findings – which also show more than 50% of twentysomethings are not religious, compar...

Re: Children are safer in drag queen story hours than in church
We'll have to check with Gob and see what he understands by it all. :shrug He's usually got great insight. ;) Nah, I cannot understand why a mythical infallible deity would indulge in such stupidity. But, if this is old testament, aren't we supposed to ignore it, (apart from the bits about poofs an...

End times
As the US adjusts to an increasingly non-religious population, thousands of churches are closing each year in the country – a figure that experts believe may have accelerated since the Covid-19 pandemic. The situation means some hard decisions for pastors, who have to decide when a dwindling congre...

Re: Children are safer in drag queen story hours than in church
What is the point of drag queens? Why do these blokes enjoy dressing up as hideous parodies of women?
You'd not catch me doing it.

Re: Inflation?
My last specs cost me £110 for two pairs.
I could have had slim lenses and bifocals for £180. (2 pairs.)

Buying specs online is risky if your prescription is more than 2years old.

Start them young..
The shooting of a teacher in the city of Newport News in Virginia by a six-year-old student should be a red flag for the US, the city’s mayor has said, as the teacher’s condition showed signs of improvement. The mayor, Phillip Jones, said the condition of the teacher, identified by local media as A...

I think Andy nailed it. Still having problems with the ticket agency, going for the best price isn't always wisest.

Re: Comin into Los Angeles...
Easy. I love flying.
However, due to them changing my flight details, and requiring a visa to transit via the USA*, I've ditched that booking.
*Seriously, WTF?

Comin into Los Angeles...
But not carrying anything, honest officer. Flying back to Australia, the best flight deal transits me via LA, (not confidential.) I don't think this breaks my life long commitment to never set foot in the USA, does it? Going back for a couple of weeks, just to catch up with Hatch and her man, and al...
