Nah we mostly followed the roads. I was accompanying a wheelchair user so it was best to avoid going in and out of the road.

I was there today, it was a blast, everybody was super friendly.
If you didn’t get a chance to come this time, you should come to the far-right counter protest on the 16th of May!

Sometimes the conspiracy theorists pop out of their echo chamber and make a statement that seems reasonable and widely accepted to them but can only be believed if you first believe 17 layers of propaganda, leaps of logic and generally brainrot. Usually all fed to them by bigots and billionaires.
Then are then surprised by normal people clowning on them and instead of reflecting, they just tell themselves they know something the normies don’t and that makes them special.

Wait, this is real? I thought this was a joke…

Ah, now the joke makes sense. Thanks.
Wasn’t sure if it was some sort of typo.

Wtf is “depends” here?

I’ve seen both in the UK. Personally, I’m a shoes off guy. Means less cleaning needed.
- Comment on Man posts his incorrect opinion online 1 month ago:
Shoes off means you don’t wear shoes inside your house. The reverse the opposite.

Just binged the whole thing and it’s pretty funny, though a bit objectifying.

It’s not certain this is true, but it’s somewhat likely. At least, that’s what I’m getting from the Wikipedia article.

She was not kept as a pet by Darwin, but she may have been collected by him on a journey, then kept at a museum(?)
- Comment on But think of the landlords! 2 months ago:
Yeah, that’s why I’d like them to build more social housing.
The lifecycle of social housing projects like these, as I understand them, is meant to be that you continue to build them, and as the old ones reach the end of their lifetime (around 60 years?) you demolish them and move the people into the new ones.
In practice, most places are not continuously building them as they should, so many of them are reaching the end of their lives without a plan for where to move people afterwards. This shows a lack of foresight and long-term planning.
Of course, politics are a fickle thing so the latest government can choose to decide that actually, poor people should be punished for the failures of the system and long-term initiatives fail.

Social housing typically doesn’t look as good as high-end apartments, but it doesn’t have to look terrible. Here’s some pretty neat looking social housing in south Paris.
It’s kind of the China Town of Paris.
It’s right next to an accessible tram station, has green spaces and social areas spread around, a couple of malls with great independent restaurants right next door. There are cycle lanes all around the place.
If you’re curious, here it is on Google Maps
I’d live here. I only wish there were more neighbourhoods like this.

The UK recently hosted the Israeli President Isaac Herzog, who has also committed many war crimes, so they’re doing worse here.

- Comment on My culture also loves music, dancing and telling stories 3 months ago:
I have met people in Britain who genuinely seem to hate food. They have a plain cheese sandwich, the worst imaginable bread or eat Huel every day.
That doesn’t necessarily reflect all Britons, but I do think they genuinely care about food less on average than other cultures.

Awwww was baby Hegseth triggered by the mean old font? Authoritarians are so sensitive, they get upset at everything.
- Comment on Are they the same person? 3 months ago:
Christian Nationalists are basically white nationalists. White nationalists are US-flavoured Nazis. KKK material.
They should be a fringe group shunned by all society, perhaps given mental help and deprogramming treatment. In this timeline though they are out-and-proud and in positions of power.
- Comment on Alas! 3 months ago:
I have a habit of getting into trouble for criticizing the work of others. I do it constructively, but not always tactfully.
One I pulled a few months back was something along the lines of “don’t do this, as it means other people will have to clean up after you”.
I’m… working on it.
