Dear Apple, when the device is localised (see that S there?) into British English, "chips" does NOT go under "confectionary" in the shopping list.

Goddam fuckmuppet seppo nonsense.

A prediction:

The EU is going to decide that it needs to protect itself against Putin’s aggression.

Trump will abandon Europe to Putin.

Starmer will be like, “I’ll align with the second guy”.

Western progressive parties stop doing this challenge 2024:

“The other guys are right. Don’t vote for them!”

The obvious thing happens.

“The other guys are REALLY right. Don’t vote for them”

Why are you like this?

Just been reading about a horrible bully who stabbed and brutally killed a critically endangered animal that was just minding its own business by a tumtum tree.

Disgusting

@flangey it was logistically very very difficult. Yeah.

And then in 2021 my mum got a terminal cancer diagnosis.

Spent a lot of time being one of only half a dozen passengers on a 737.

Anyway, by this time next year, I will have submitted my paperwork saying that I have no criminal record in the UK, along with proof of 5 years residency, Portuguese language proficiency, and a copy of my (post gender recognition) birth certificate.

And when it is approved, I will be registered as a Portuguese citizen born overseas (female).

And as far as the state will be concerned, I’m a cis woman.

That’s going to be a useful insurance policy.

The day after the Brexit vote, I was stuck in bed having panic attacks on repeat.

It shoved me out of my comfort zone and now my life, in Portugal, is better for it (immigrant stress is real though), but it was a profoundly shitty thing to go through, and my heart utterly goes out to the millions of Americans, especially the young women, the LGBT people, and the terrified immigrants, and others now experiencing the same thing.

A lot of people, probably the majority, see things in irredeemable scum bags, like Trump, like Boris Johnson, like LePen, and going back, like Hitler, which they like.

And I just don’t get it.

So glad I got my nervous breakdown response to this shit out of the way after the Brexit referendum.

My deepest, most profound sympathies for anyone going through anything similar today. It’s fucking horrible.
