That's not to be sniffed at.

At the other end of the spectrum, when my dad was ~17 he did well in an event for young chemists and the prize was a trip to an asbestos factory.

My 9yo is going on a school trip to Abba Voyage this week for a tenner, which I'm just throwing out there as the best school trip I've ever heard of

Don't assume that the 92% isn't from Russia-funded disruption groups.

Polish kabanos are the king of all sausages.

Your sincerely held but, ultimately, laughably incorrect contradictory opinions on this subject are of no interest to me.

Quick update from me.

I've explored all the available options and I've decided, after much reflection, to be ANTI-facist.

Technically, we need both Hamas to be stupid AND for Netanyahu to be a psychopath.

So...

Yeah, what you said.

"Soros money" is the current era's way of saying "Jewish money" whilst covering up that you're a massive antisemite.

James Barišić 🇭🇷 @james.barisic.fr · 3d

What I don't get, right, is that, as someone who worked in politics for more years than I care to remember, I never saw an advert for the job of "professional protestor", nor was I ever offered use of any protestors, nor did I ever get my hands on any "Soros money". Odd.

Sen. Roger Marshall: "October 18 is when the protest gets here. This will be a Soros paid-for protest for his professional protesters. The agitators show up. We'll have to get the National Guard out. Hopefully it will be peaceful. I doubt it."

Oh, and there's also the "Guess which one wants to legalise incest" game.

No, seriously, one of themlp does. Stop being so woke, will you?!
