I remember trying to listen to Radio Caroline under my duvet on an am portable radio as a kid. This film is loosely based on their story. Great cast. Absolute junk film - one of only four films (in any language) I’ve ever switched off before the end… but that’s just my opinion. I hope you enjoy it.
I’ve thought about this a lot myself. I’m 12-15 friends/acquaintances down due to them deciding to step out of life in their twenties or thirties. On paper none of them seemed to be in too bad a way and yet…
There’s obviously the problem that having and discussing emotions is for girls and gays only (/s), but there must be more to it than that.
I think there’s an expectation (where I live) that men should be strong and stoic at all times - but, honestly, many of us are fragile little flowers, some of the time, but it’s seen (erroneously) as weakness.
In my experience most men are happy to talk about: “big screen tv’s, blunts, 40’s and bitches” to NSFW quote
but they can’t open up about emotions and feelings.
Needed to be said. I honestly thought I was in Onion territory at first…
Apparently the left stops somewhere about right of centre - what a quaint political system the US has.
First question: when you use the terms “liberal” and “fascist” do you mean them in their original sense or as they are currently employed in US English?
I hope they never walk past a church…
Sri Lankans (of all varieties - complicated history) have elected a left leaning coalition. It’s very unusual the majority of every “section” of Sri Lanka to throw their support behind the same candidate / party (again - historical reasons.)
Here’s a BBC link. It appears to be reasonably factual as I understand it and is a good synopsis:
The incredibly recent Sri Lankan election enters the chat… and feels sad at being ignored.
To be an immigrant you must first be an emigrant. Emigrants leave their country, immigrants join a country.
If over half of your active voters want to kill people as part of a national policy then you’re probably fucked beyond repair as a people and a nation. My condolences.
Regardless of your views on the Orange Grifter / Gift from God (delete as applicable) this question is fundamentally flawed. “How do we build bridges, find common ground and begin to win over our fellow US citizens who have, in my opinion, made a poor and misinformed political choice that could have terrible consequences for them, our country and the world at large?” might be a more appropriate opener. I understand you’re upset, scared, desolate etc but your language comes off as belligerent and aggressive. Perhaps soften your tone and be more receptive to others’ concerns. For the record, I’ve got no flies on this turd as I’m not from the US, nor do I live there. Good luck.
Seems reasonable. After I posted I realised that “Donald and Harris” would be a meaningless word-soup in my head for a few seconds if you’d gone with that instead.
It does look like a Mini at first glance.
Just out of curiosity is there any reason, you’re aware of, that you went for “Trump and Kamala” as opposed to “Trump and Harris” when you wrote your post? I’ve got no clowns in this circus so it’s a genuine question.
Thanks for taking your time to interact here. I appreciate it. Enjoy your scrolling…
My wrong take of sh.it.just.works’s name is that it’s for people who neither care nor know how the fediverse works or what it even is - people who just want to consume and occasionally randomly interact.
Generally, yeah. Your initials and family name - of the account payer only. First line of your address. I think the Terminator film, amongst others, shows this being used to locate someone.
Hello? This is the internet. Please don’t complicate things with your thinking and logic. /s
Yeah - an application of heat to create a chemical change. You’re correct there. My answer was incomplete.
I think you’re correct that (some / many) people see the tiniest chink in your armour and go for the juggler (jugular vein - clown 🤡 joke) to compound your misery to make themselves feel/look “strong”.
And, yes, in abusive relationships I believe a husband is more likely to hurt and damage his wife with his fists whereas a wife would be more likely to hurt and damage her husband with words - generally speaking. It’s tragic either way…
