From what you've said I don't really see how she's doing anything wrong. She's encouraging herself and others to accept and love themselves and stop throwing themselves at people. It's a good thing.

I...had no idea.

But people are clearly exaggerrating. Things are no doubt substantially better in 2017 than they were in, say, 2009. I mean, are people with university-level educations still struggling to get min-wage jobs? No, they aren't. Are people barely able to eat and get by, month by month? No, unless they live in a generalyl very poor area. Look, stop messing with me.

Yes. People with good educations are still struggling to get decent paying jobs. People are still struggling to eat. Foodbank usage is at a record high. Continued cuts in the public sector means worse response times for emergency services, longer waiting times and worse service in the NHS, and more and more crimes being ignored by the police. There are housing shortages due to government cuts, meaning rents on existing properties get higher and higher, squeezing the budgets of families all over the country, and preventing millions of young people from leaving their parents homes. That's without even mentioning rising food and energy prices (which will likely get worse after leaving the EU).

Things are 'better' than in 2008 in the sense in that now we already know we're fucked, whereas back then we were still adapting. A lot of businesses, both small and large (BHS went out of business just last year), are struggling, causing a lot of people to either lose their job, or be put on a zero hour contract with minimal rights and no stability.

If things are 'normal' it's only because being utterly fucked is so familiar to many that it's become the norm.

It's still not "normal" in Britain. Local councils and public services have their budgets cut (or frozen) year after year.

When both people feel satisfied. The same way it should end between straight couples.

So one climaxes, then rolls over and immediately goes to sleep, leaving the other one unsatisfied?

I did say how it should end between straight couples.

If it's not affecting their job performance then why should they be fired for it? It'd be no different to firing someone for supporting gay rights.

Hey, y'all are the ones suggesting that the positions are only given to them because of their skin color. You have no clue if they happened to actually do a great job at the audition and got cast on merit.

I'm not saying it's the case with all black actors. Some genuinely do get the roles because of their talent, and that's how it should be. But it'd be naive to pretend that Hollywood execs aren't aware of and exploiting the fact that there's a buzz if a black actor gets a major role, particularly if it's of a traditionally white character.

Because it shows we're not racist anymore. Black people aren't being exploited anymore. They're just being used to grab media attention and sell tickets. It's progress.

So tell me where the middle ground between those are. I have a feeling there isn't one for people in this mindstate.

Well there isn't really a 'middle ground' as it's more or less just a modern version of the same old thing.

But I suppose what you're looking for is a better alternative. Which would be black people being given opportunities because of their talent and skill, rather than because of their skin colour.

If you know what you want from it and you know how to use it then a compressor can be one of the most useful pedals around, but if you're just looking for something fun to play with or something to radically change your tone then you're probably going to be disappointed.

Nostalgic posted...

If I ever make my own album is it better to use the compressor in the software or the actual pedal while recording?

That all depends on what you're trying to achieve. Many people use compression as part of their tone, so in those cases they'd use the pedal in their signal chain. For others compression is just part of the mixing process, in which case it'd be done after recording.

Politicians being vague with their answers isn't a problem restricted to the right.

No but the idea of disliking PC culture because you shouldn't have to worry about offending people with what you say is in direct conflict with giving a vague answer so that you don't offend anyone.

Again, being contradictory isn't a problem restricted to the right.

Higher rates of suicide and mental health issues amongst trans people probably wouldn't mix well in combat environments.

Men have higher rates of suicide than women.

Are we having an all woman army now? Sounds like a dumb idea...

Yeah, because like one is totally not waaaay bigger than the other.

So at what point do you draw the line?

Probably at the point where it makes sense. Trans people are a minority and preventing them from joining the military doesn't have a huge impact on it's size or effectiveness. Preventing men from joining would significantly reduce your country's military capability.

NASA uses XP.

Older operating systems are more reliable and familiar, which is important considering the nature of their work.

Yeah, it's also not like home users still using XP because the systems they're running on are either going to be behind a lot of security or on a closed network. There aren't really any security issues with it.

why would i even lie about it?

we got drunk together. i threw up. a bit later on we made out and then we held hands and sat on the pier watching the moon reflecting on the sea. she left cause her fiance kept calling. i walked home. i saw a badger on the way.


if i was going to lie about it i'd make it a lot more interesting than that.

Both sides are soft on terrorism. It doesn't matter who you vote for. Your children will continue to be slaughtered and your politicians will continue the strategy of "we must ignore this and carry on as normal."

Neither side are saying that. One wants to scrap human rights laws to help deal with terrorism, the other wants to help the situation in the middle east and elsewhere to prevent it that way. Neither is ignoring it.

Like title says, hope you are voting. (Whatever way it may be)

Will be an interesting day, but seems set to be a Tory win, but we can hope they lose majority at least. It does feel much like america's election felt from outside eyes - poor choice from main two, no matter who you vote for, as anyone else feels like a wasted vote (unless you go for tactical voting)

How is Corbyn a poor choice? He actually represents an actual alternative to the Conservative party, and won the leadership of the party (twice) by a huge majority, as well as increasing membership of the party to record levels.

Labour may not win the election, but at least they've offered a real choice.

IT'S NOT A CHOICE BETWEEN MAY AND CORBYN.

Please please understand that

Of course it is. You may not be directly voting for them (unless you're in their constituency) but they lead the two major parties. If you're voting for either party you're voting for them to be in power.

I have a height and weight advantage but he is the best boxer of the past how many years with a 50-0 record?

My only chance would be dirty fighting. Anyone here seriously thinking they could win in a fight against Floyd is incredibly clueless.

Well I said bar fight so fight dirty. I think the people making him out to be a God don't realize how one dimensional boxing is and how much size plays in a fight.

It might be 'one dimensional' but that one dimension involves hitting people very hard, and avoiding someone else trying to hit you very hard.
So, put a guy with years of experience in doing that very well up against the years of experience of being a fat loser on the internet that most people here have and I know who I'm betting on.

Nah, it was for Aliens which was the 2nd. I remember Drake being one of the figures I wanted, who was only in the 2nd film.

They were kind of a cross from both films. They did feature characters from Aliens, but also ideas from Alien 3, and they weren't released until the 90s, a looong time after Aliens.

Cassette tapes sound fine. I have about 200 and except for a few which were clearly left in a hot car they sound clear on my tape deck. I love tapes.

Just because they're "fine" doesn't change the fact that there are cheaper, more durable, better sounding formats around.

Leaves are 'fine' for wiping your arse, but I'd rather use toilet paper.
