I'm surprised the NY Times doesn't demand that the Pulitzer people establish an award for euphemism. They'd win the Pulitzer Prize for Euphemism every year.

Gwent need to pull their finger out and get a grip on this.

It's completely unacceptable just how far behind they are on the basics.

Boris Johnson, "I tried to get the scientists to say that lockdown was a bad idea"

*they all laugh*

There were 26,000 covid deaths because Boris Johnson ignored scientists and delayed the first lockdown by a week

PEOPLE! There are LITERAL CBRN EXPERTS on this site who will tell you that the best thing you can do for tear gas or pepper spray is to just flush your eyes and face with water.

Any “home remedy” bullshit is just that: bullshit. It won’t help and can actually make things worse.

Spread THAT word.

1/ A Russian soldier has recorded a video in advance of his own anticipated murder, speaking about how his commander has executed and buried other members of his unit, as well as hoarding aid meant for the soldiers. The speaker has since disappeared and is now likely dead too. ⬇️

We don’t care if it makes you uncomfortable.
We’re angry — and we’re done apologising for it.

Female rage isn’t a weakness. It’s a force: raw, righteous, and long overdue.

Be loud. Be brave.

I wish I was as diligent, steadfast and committed to anything as much as the media is committed to NOT saying or writing "the president lied" in the face of the most obvious flat-out lies.
