  Ore forebears’ masters were money-grubbing cunts, this is true. Let’s not pretend old matey in the pits was actively participating in the enactment of policies which caused death and emigration on scales unbeknownst before.

  Our masters are now too, but at least they pretend not to be. Although they still don’t teach kids about the empire properly.

  They have enough of those in their club already tbh.

  It’s hard not to be a doomer with news like this - I’m glad I’m not having kids is all I can think about when I read this; I don’t want to think about what the world is going to look like when I’m (not much) older.

  Population is increasing, despite this. But the current dialogue around immigration is absolutely horrific, so good luck to everyone who plans on living long enough to maybe need care.

  I mean, It was that or being deported to Afghanistan - he obviously thought a boat journey was better than taking his daughter to “safe” Basra.

  That’s sort of besides the point really, though, no?

  If you’re tasked with maintaining a structure (lol) you can be expected to perhaps attempt to know where all the bits you’re responsible for are aren’t you?

  But then again, Severn-Trent uses dousing rods to find water mains so who knows what they he’ll they’re actually doing.
