Cis and trans are terms used in chemistry to describe two molecules that differ from each other in 3D structure only. This does not apply to people. #IRejectCis
@afneil@Salierite It amuses me when people talk about him being the ‘King in the North’ as if it’s a reference to Game of Thrones.
Those that do clearly don’t remember what happened to the two ‘kings in the north’ in that show and it wasn’t exactly a roaring success.
@NoShirleyNo@lizzbag My kids phones have Norton family installed on them and we still have to approve app installs for my daughter (16). Tiktok is blocked on their phones. My son, who is 19, doesn’t complain about it.
@GSpellchecker@AndyBulFor@stephenpollard My daughter perfected her GCSE piano ensemble piece by playing alongside the other part on a YouTube video. She could not have hoped to practice alongside anther person for that length of time.
@HaydenHewitt@NadiaWhittomeMP Imposing boundaries on your kids is never easy but not impossible. Not doing so just stores up problems for another day.
My kids didn’t need the government to dictate what they did with their phones… that was my job.
@Miss_Snuffy Parents can do many basic steps that limit the harms of phone use. For example, phones aren’t allowed in bedrooms between certain hours and ‘bedtime’ is strict.
Our kids have never been allowed tiktok.
Homework and revision is not done in the same room as the phone.
@ZubyMusic@Miss_Snuffy Because parents don’t want to actually parent their children any more. They don’t want to enforce boundaries and would prefer it if they could outsource decision making to the state.
@MasterMaliq If savage males cannot control their base urges when seeing a woman in public,they should ensure they are blindfolded whenever they leave the house.
@LBC@NickFerrariLBC How many illiterate savages are we prepared to tolerate for every one of Benn’s hypothetical ‘surgeons’?
Are there not surgeons in many counties more compatible with our language and culture who want to live here? What is so special about Sudanese surgeons?
@dshensmith@Hurfs1 There WAS a taxpayer subsidy for private schools until recently in that private school teachers has access to the Teachers Pension Scheme and employer/employee contributions were not sufficient to cover future liability.
This loophole had ALREADY been closed by the tories.
@ThePosieParker@BroadWithABrain I interpreted the family’s statement to say they don’t want anger and hatred towards the Sikh community.
I don’t see why anger towards the police and other government institutions is not entirely justified.
@Stealth_Dobe@zatzi@destinyangel5 I think the biggest issue was the reduction in the threshold for employers NI to £5k. It means that those part time weekend jobs that six-formers rely on for their first jobs are suddenly way more costly for the employers.
