@RachAvvqg What do you mean? Strawberries do have a smell, as soon as you cut them you smell the juice and it smells like strawberry. Not as pungent as the fake smell, but they definitely have a scent.
@JohnHann04 Whoever believed that electric cars wouldn’t have tax was an idiot. Eventually all cars will be electric and revenue had to come from somewhere.
@MissSassbox No because these fairytales were written at a time when social mobility came from marriage, especially for women, so ‘sacrifice for love’ was a net gain. These characters are never giving it all for the local miner.
@mattvanswol I taught a boy whose dad was 100% fit and healthy - then he dropped dead in the bathroom one day as they got read for work/school. At 70+ anything can happen out the blue. Aneurism, stroke, heart attack. Not everything is a conspiracy. Death comes for us all.
@BBCr4today I and thousands of others haven’t consumed any BBC media in a decade. How is the licence fee fair anymore? They should go commercial and stop the licence fee altogether.
@EllipticalMan@LuciaLobosvilla Mate, I’m going to blow your mind - I read one a day from about age 9. I read so much I finished every book in 2 libraries (1 was 4 floors) by 14. I read Shakespeare independently for fun at 12. My 12 year old son has read 5 1000pg books this year among the 40
Novels he’s read.
@MickMilee Why does one of them have to be right? What about Judaism?Sikhism? Hell for all we know we should all be worshipping Zeus still and we’ve all messed up. Many people have believed in many gods for far longer than Islam and Christianity.
@MashoodMNKhan@HannahDCox@hollowearthterf The minority of subjects have coursework, school is exam heavy since 2015. STEM subjects get all the money and prestige and the arts are being phased out… but try again. Also those rich kids were BOYS. Then it was was middle class BOYS.
@BradfemlyWalsh The sad thing is kids today lack the skills to decode unfamiliar language. I was reading Dickens, Austen and Shakespeare for pleasure at 12/13. The Hobbit was barely a blip in sophistication.
@SeddSezz Fuck. me. Why am I going to work at all? I could be jobless and have a dozen kids and be laughing, free money, free house, free childcare and free food. This man is not making the friends he thinks he is.
@willows_elise I’ve never even spoken to another woman in the bathroom (unless I was already with them) beyond ‘excuse me’ or ‘thanks’ for opening the door.
@DanNeidle But they haven’t. If you stay in that house you aren’t suddenly richer, if you sell that house to move in the region everything else has gone up the same, you’re not richer. It’s only a fiscal asset increase if you moved from a ‘rich’ region to a ‘poor’ one.
