• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are bots on lemmy?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Hello fellow human, I’m so glad you asked. All evidence points to there being no bots here

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did it really used to be common for guys to go to a bar every night like in Cheers or The Simpsons?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Worked in a pub in the UK.

  Yes, we had regulars. They’d be there nearly every night after work for a quick pint before heading home.

  Very few of them would stay for more than one or two though

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We must act now: without a written constitution, Reform UK will have carte blanche to toxify our nation | George Monbiot⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  America has a written constitution. Can’t see it’s helping very much.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Family seek £180k-a-year tutor from 'socially appropriate background' to prepare one-year-old son for ‘Eton or Harrow’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  A 1 year old?

  I’d quite happily wing it for a few months until I got found out. 4 months and thats a few k over my annual salary.

  Remember, nobody can prove you weren’t a regional manager for ToysRus

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do so many boomers and even some gen x believe so peristently that if you dressup and show up in person anywhere you will get whatever you went there for?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The only time showing up in person works in the UK is if you’re a teenager looking for part time or apprenticeship work in independent shops/hospitality/mechanics etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨£6 million repaid to workers as Government cracks down on employers underpaying their staff⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The trouble with the likes of Uber etc is they claim that the people working for them are technically self employed and thus not entitled to NMW.

  I know there was a court case a few years ago about the worker’s status but I’ve not really been familiar with the issues since I worked for HMRC

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The most important person in Britain you’ve never heard of⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  True, but still. Having someone named who coild so easily fall victim to some blackmail scheme is a problem waiting to happen

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The most important person in Britain you’ve never heard of⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can’t help but think that publicising his name and role are literally the worst possible fucking thing someone could do.

  Jesus wept, we may as well just tell the Russians where he lives and what car he drives

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Texas National Guard arriving in Chicago⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He even talked about fucking his own daughter if he had the chance

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Defence ministry spends millions on private schools to avoid Welsh⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A parent has a right to send a child to any legal school they want.

  If a parent is forced by circumstance to live in a specific area then they shouldn’t be forced to send their child to a school they believe is unsuitable.

  In this case, if it were me I’d consider forcing my child to spend X number of hours a week learning a language that is of absolutely no use to them an unacceptable waste of time.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The UK can't see Imgur links right now, apparently.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Can confirm. Cannot see anything

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord customer service data breach leaks user info and scanned photo IDs⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Having all your data leaked is a small price to pay to prevent kids accessing stuff their parents should be preventing them from accessing.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The only thing stopping Homelander from going on a rampage, killing tens of thousands of people and seizing control of the world is that he cares what people think about him. He wants to be loved, not feared.

  He kills innocent people but he does it discreetly or when it looks like he can justify his actions.

  But can you imagine an absolute piece of shit like Stephen Miller getting super powers? He’d be far, far worse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which timezone would win in a conflict?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Love some nice baps

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which timezone would win in a conflict?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You shut your filthy whore mouth.

  Its a cob.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I balance my checkbook every day. I manage my bank acount . Why does the goverment have so much problems with this? I get large payouts and such but it always seem they are in the neg??⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Because if you run out of money, there’s a consequence…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Michelle Mone demands Keir Starmer ends 'vendetta' against her in letter to PM⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They pay back the money you stole

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has anyone else experienced these psychological changes after eating meat?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You need to goto a scientist and let them know you are a superhuman

  In the real world, you either didnt hold onto it for 30 seconds, or the pan wasn’t very hot.

  You would be physically incapable of holding something that is 200c for more than a second. Your body wouldn’t let you.

  And if for some reason you dont have nerve endings, you’d be in hospital

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨JFC, who did this?!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah thats the one

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨JFC, who did this?!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You’ve also got the more recent one with Sandra Bullock, where the monsters only attack people who look at them. Except they’re invisible.

  And there’s mist everywhere at the beginning I think

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨JFC, who did this?!⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  He’s the main character in The Happening. Similar premise except its a plague that causes people to commit suicide

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Has anyone else experienced these psychological changes after eating meat?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  You did not “hold” a 200c pan for 30 seconds and escape with one blister and no burns.

  Eating meat doesn’t rewrite your genetic code and give you heat resistance.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And me lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I know, but do the guards stay with the group or will one break off and jog alongside you…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve not seen the film yet. I wonder, if there’s no maximum speed can you just sprint ahead and then stop for a little rest?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Ultra-marathon runners will typically run/jog for over 100 miles without stopping (except for a piss), and the hard-core ones will just piss themselves anyway.

  With decent footwear and training the only thing stopping you from walking will be your need for sleep which will come at the 48-36 hour mark. But even then I suppose the desire to not be shot will keep you going further.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OK what is your Roman name?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Pieus Chipius

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  And if we’re having to present an ID card for the mundane it isn’t a stretch to imagine the government having the ability to harvest that information.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lucky git. I’m 42 and I think the last time I was asked for ID was when I was 26.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Who got raptured today?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Shit, I missed it. I guess I’m stuck here now
