  • Consent is key. And not at the shops, remember.

  • No need to start a campaign, just remember mannequins have feelings too.

    Be kind to your mannequins. Ask yourself "If it were me stood here all day and all night in public, how would I feel about that outfit?

  • Nope nope nope! Not like this!

    Of course, educate your mannequin children sensibly and calmly and before they learn it in the playground or online, but absolutely no physical demonstrations whatsoever!

    Can you not see how pissed off little mannequin kid is? -"Stupid horny big brother getting frisky in public again." Poor mannequin kid is scarred for life.

  • Ah, true, yes.

  • I don't care how horny you are for butt stuff with your stripey-clothed friend, not in public, not in the store and definitely NOT, in any circumstances, anywhere near mannequin children, FFS!

  • I think he's now chairman and certainly still profits from Amazon.

  • Fun fact: if the website you're visiting includes a free font hosted by Google, the website and page you were accessing are sent to Google alongside your IP address. Google assert that they don't use that data to personalise your ads, but they don't mention not using it for other purposes as far as I recall, and Google also dropped their "Don't be evil" motto. At first I found that funny (who proposes that in a meeting and how do you come to agree to drop not being evil?!), but increasingly I realise that it wasn't just an absurd decision but a serious policy shift.

  • ...in that you can go to prison for expressing support for proscribed terrorist organisations as determined in UK law, and "Palestine Action" recently became one of them. For the avoidance of doubt, I tell you this purely for information and warning purposes only, and to help you, if you're British, avoid ending up in prison for expressing support for the proscribed organisation "Palestine Action".

    Also to be clear: personally, I don't know much about that organisation beyond what's clear from their name and that they recently became proscribed.

    Don't for a minute think that that doesn't include anonymously online. It absolutely does include what you write on the internet. It also includes (with lesser sentences) wearing clothing that supports a proscribed organisation or posting a picture of such clothing online or in print.

    Historically there never was a right to free speech in the UK, although that changed somewhat with the introduction of the European Convention on Human Rights (which we helped draft post war and which has been extended since), but it is definitely illegal in the UK to express support in any way, including online, for proscribed terrorist organisations.

    You can read more about the 84 proscribed organisations and sentences of up to 14 years in prison here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/proscribed-terror-groups-or-organisations--2/proscribed-terrorist-groups-or-organisations-accessible-version

    The list includes organisations assessed by the UK government as terrorists, such as a lot of Islamist organisations, some far right groups and a handful of separatist movements.

    Offenses include being reckless as to whether you might encourage others to support a proscribed organisation. So be careful about what you say and how you say it. Consider carefully whether you might encourage support for a proscribed organisation and don't do that.

  • Already illegal here in the uk to protest climate change.

  • I think a bunch of C programmers hate rust passionately because they always looked down their noses at principled languages for being slow.

    Now a principled language is beating them on both speed and safety and it's as if the jocks lost a baseball game to the nerds who studied dynamics of solids and cut a series of little slots in their bats so that every time they hit the ball it went out of the park.

    So much hate for the clever win over the brute force.

  • I was confused at first because I thought you meant LISP the programming language, not lisp the 1990s stereotype.

  • Fuck, this is bad.

    Mr Bezos doesn't give a shit about you.Never has. Never will.

    Ruining your entire life doesn't bother him in the slightest.

    He doesn't even give a shit about your money,he has incomprehensibly vast amounts of moneyand you don't make the tiniest molecule of difference to his life.

    All he gives a shit about isextractingthe largest possible amount of moneyon averagefrom the largest possible pool of peopleand businesses.

    So you don't matter to him. Not even slightly.He cares much, much more about a worm he's never seen that lives under his lawn than he cares about you.And he doesn't give a fuck about the worm.

    Quit giving Bezos your money, everyone. He doesn't need it. You do.

  • Grrr.

    :)

  • James. No particular reason.

    My other cars never had names, but I love this one to pieces and it goes like the clappers.

  • You're right of course, but rather than admit that, I want to claim that eventually your prostate, if you have one, will say no to sleeping through the morning.

    More seriously, I think late teenagers have a well-documented hormonal predisposition to staying up late and getting up late. It's hard for them them to have to live to the typical middle aged schedule.

  • When you reach middle age, you lose the ability to regularly sleep beyond 8am. Schedules are not written by young people.

    Nevertheless, one of my younger relatives goes to a 16-18 year old college that starts at 10:30.

  • Yummy yummy salad smoothy, but that word... Stop.

  • Isn't owning a credit card age gating anyway? I don't think you can legally own a credit card in the UK.(Edit: Oops I mean until you're 18.)

  • Fruigetable

    That is a terrible terrible word. Take my angry upvote and get outta here. Disgusting.
