It would be hugely entertaining. However, the 1922 committee bend the rules when it suits them. There's no way they'll admit in public that the threshold has been reached even if it does, and I don't think it will because even the loony right has a majority who have a sense of self interest. It's too late politically now that the general election has been announced, and there'll be a leadership election after the general election anyway, even if something remarkable happens and they keep a slim majority or achieve a coalition.

Protect trans people by voting tactically against the Conservative candidate. The Conservatives have completely bought into waging a culture war and trans folk and immigrants are public enemies according to their current ideology. It distracts the voters from 14 years of self-inflicted or worsened-by-policy economic catastrophies. Please don't "both sides" this.

Good life advice right there.

I'm confused. The Mrs was clearly not ovulating, so I checked out pretty much all the homies for the rest of the month, but it didn't seem to me like any of them were either, which seems statistically unlikely. Does this mean I'm the one on heat? Do I switch from pitcher to catcher on months like these? Is that why Alex.... well, Alex, you know what you did, and that's not what we agreed, was it, and and I think you know full well I couldn't say the safe word at that point and I think you deliberately misinterpreted me slapping your admittedly cute butt dimple.

The world tends to find that having an extraordinarily wealthy parent makes its own luck.

Exactly. Unfortunately "move fast and break things" has some disadvantages when it comes to driving in traffic.

By the way, he lost, turning a safe 20,000 majority into a 1,300 win for labour.

At first I read that as an old printer from a school, and thought that was a very weird thing to want, but then I realised you meant a printer that was old school, and it all suddenly made sense to me!

You have the right to be an asshole. Mods have the right to ban you for being an asshole.

Making out that they're nasty for having some standards of behaviour in their area is calling good bad and bad good.

(Censorship is when local or national government put you in prison for protesting or ban your book or ban your ideas. That's when your free speech rights are being infringed.)

I know three.

In fact, come to think of it, I only know two trans women, so I know more trans men than trans women.

Well, perhaps it might be possible to catch some tummy bug from someone else, I don't know, but you inhale the fecal particles when you flush anyway I suppose.

The lid stays down all the time (well, in between use) at our house, with the idea that you minimise the amount of fecal particles floating around your room. I know it doesn't eliminate it, but I want to flush as much as possible of the poo and not inhale it, so I insist on the lid being closed.

I'm not claiming danger, I just don't like the thought.
