@floridaprintz@alwayshome25@elonmusk Uk Slave Act in 1807 ended the slave trade in British colonies. US didn’t follow suit until emancipation proclamation in 1863.
Perhaps you should have paid more attention in school
@iiMohamedO@elonmusk Yes, taxpayers money was used to buy freedom for slaves and end slavery in those countries. What would you have preferred had happened? Civil war? Who would have suffered the most in a war?
@jamesinsurrey@nikkik668 Marking is such a load of BS - tell the kids to swap books and they mark each others then read out the marks.
The other piss take is ‘lesson prep’. Teach the same as time last year, they haven’t found new Tudor kings, Shakespeare’s poetry or redefined an oxbow fucking lake
@stevuck@fesshole It is very left leaning but that’s their prerogative, as with everything media wise, look at something else if you don’t like it.
Personally I just skip over the political fess’es because most of what’s on here is genuinely brilliant.
@benonwine Watch last years series Ben, the one with Alan Carr and Joe Marler et al. Way better and allows you to binge watch to work out if it’s your cup of tea or not.
Personally, while this year hasn’t taken off yet, it’s still one of the best things on tv.
@frat247@thencshow Totally agree. Spent close to 400 to take my son to his first NFL game at spurs. Obviously they didn’t find any other idiots to pay full price so we were surrounded by primary school kids with complimentary tickets Thanks NFL!
Won’t be so stupid next time. Got food poisoning too
@gearsoft2@MorihausKyne Why does it matter to you if it’s a woman? You know that women were allowed to have jobs even back then, and some of them were scientists. Crazy huh?
@gearsoft2@MorihausKyne It explained in the final credits who the female scientist represented, makes total sense. They were all British because we’re the best and it would wind up those pesky Russians.
