I expect Trump and his family would spam you relentlessly and then sell your info to Russian hackers.

I was going to write that Canada is a nice place and makes a safe alternative for a visit to North America, but I see that you already know that.

I have to constantly remind myself that not all Americans support this lunacy.

Treatment can be life changing, so if one is more likely to die of something else before the cancer shortens life then best to leave it alone.

Probably more effective, everyone under 16 knows all about VPN.

All your photos are amazing but this one is beyond words

Wanton cruelty, how can people be treated like this? And it’s exactly the same as the 2 child cap. May those who come up with these policies burn in hell.

Let’s all tell him that he can fly by flapping his arms and position him by an open window on the 37th floor.

I hate them. One of my granddads was unemployed for a while in the 1930s, he applied for relief & someone came round to check on their situation, because the family owned a wireless they were denied help, he ended up having pull up the floorboards for fuel for the fire.

My brother usually goes to Spain to watch England play, he knows a sleepy little Spanish village with few other English and watches the games in a civilised and safe space.

I absolutely agree. Go to Canada, go to Mexico, but boycott USA. Further, while I accept Visas can be cancelled, travelling on ESTA makes one extremely vulnerable. In the small print you give up your legal rights to dispute USA officialdom and can be deported on a whim.

What penalties do they suffer when found out in their lie?

Wiggle it while breathing through my ears?

Is the sign aimed at women buying their own lingerie or men venturing into a strange space to buy lingerie for their partner? Either way it seems an odd sign.

Govts can legislate to set age barriers, but anyone who think they will be effective doesn’t understand technology or teenagers.

I see there to be 3 counter arguments/actions:
1) asylum seekers / migrants are overall good for the communities that host them.
2) to reduce nos seeking asylum stop supplying weapons
3) to reduce nos of economic migrants invest in their home countries

Isn’t that slander?

I understand imagining one’s mother-in-law present and critiquing one’s performance is considered effective

Forget about sex, has he ever had a proper conversation with a woman?

By definition the minimum wage is too low if someone in full time employment at the minimum wage qualifies for benefits. If this happens it means the state is subsidising bad employers.
