A hill you are prepared to die on

[xxxx01]

What is your hill you are prepared to die on.

Mine is the moon landing was fake.
Botox makes you look older.
Sex is overrated.
Some art work is not art its crap.

That's the thing, I didn't say I hate all boomers, just the spiteful coffee and netflix ones that I've been on the receiving end of when at rock bottom and that makes me ageist and spiteful.

Yeah it’s always extremes isn’t it.

I share this at every opportunity 😁

The first one is so very true.

Mine may be controversial to pro-life supporters?

Modern day medicine is fantastic but it isn't always for the greater good.

Keeping elderly people going artificially just so they can slowly waste away in a care home at £1300+ per week is bloody awful. Sometimes, letting nature take it's course is the kinder option.

Flu jabs, Covid jabs, antibiotics etc which are frequently used to keep elderly and unwell people alive is wrong on so many levels.

I say this as the daughter of a very much loved mum who has suffered for almost a decade with dementia. A wonderful, vicacious woman would have hated to have discovered this wash her life at 84.

Absolutely.
The amount of young women i know whose mothers channel their anxiety onto is staggering.
Scared of the world
Terrified of one day having to be independent
Unable to sort their own car insurance
Have to consult parents to validate/gain reassurance constantly because independence and resilience has not been instilled.

You say that, but statuses changed so quickly back then. Get the Yorkists back in power and their legitimacy could easily have been restored.

Plus, even an illegitimate heir was a threat (Elizabeth I, anyone?), and those boys would have been a rallying point for endless uprisings as long as they lived. Richard had the means, motive and opportunity.

There’s also those who believe Henry VII wouldn’t have killed the boys then married their sister, although I’m not sure he would have been so nice about it. He made a lot of sacrifices to get to the throne.

Although, I’m a Yorkie so happy to blame those Lancastrians!

Crisps on sandwiches don’t work. I think this may be the MOST controversial thing I’ve ever written and maybe it’s a sensory thing for me but I just don’t get it

I hope I never read another sentence containing the words

Bezos, Branson and fetching catsuits

Ok now this thread has gone too far!

1. Gender is a fucking harmful construct and we should take a stand against it. It underpins things such as misogyny, VAWG, male suicide and violence.
2. I think owning dogs is gross. Having them in your house, licking you (or worse still licking me) is horribly unhygienic. It feels worse now that dogs seemingly need to go everywhere humans do. I don't get the concept of having pets full stop but dogs are worse due to people treating them like four legged humans.
3. If you don't want or need a termination then don't have one. Butt out of what other women choose to do with their pregnancy.
4. Western countries should pay reparations for the transatlantic slave trade and recognise the lasting damage it caused.
5. The Holocaust happened. And more and more I can understand how it did.

I was also going to add “I don’t have to bow down in gratitude to tax payers for the disability benefit my son receives.” 😂

The fast and the furious: Research shows that owners of high-status cars are on a collision course with traffic | University of Helsinki

To gain answers, researchers carried out a study of Finnish consumers. A total of 1,892 car owners answered not only questions about their car, consumption habits and wealth, but also questions exploring personality traits. The answers were analysed using the Five‐Factor Model, the most widely used framework for assessing personality traits in five key domains (openness, conscientiousness, neuroticism, extraversion, agreeableness).

The answers were unambiguous: self-centred men who are argumentative, stubborn, disagreeable and unempathetic are much more likely to own a high-status car such as an Audi, BMW or Mercedes.

The only quibble I have with that last bit is that the traits of arrogance and bad driving in prestige car owners applies to men and women

Cats are better than dogs.

Amen.

😂Also very true!

They spent a fortune tryung to prove the earth was flat and ended up proving it is in fact, not 😂

It did happen. And there were very small classes for students available within council buildings. However they were much less in demand so not readily known about.

Love Actually, is, and always was, a terrible film.

I imagine that attendance wasn't tracked/recorded as much as it is now either.

ha, are you referring to Beyond The Curve,

where they set up laser-mounted sight-lines along a straight waterway in the dead of night and got the opposite answer they hoped for, when the laser failed to align horizontally with their target board over a long distance??

How very dare you! Ready salted, or preferably cheese and onion with some crunchy lettuce and a smidgeon of mayo- can't be beaten.

Yes 😂amazing doc actually, well worth the watch! Ha

1. I don’t really understand, Gender is a thing.
2. You hate dogs. Good for you. You should move to Pakistan.
3. Take your own advice
4. Western countries are more than making up for it by basically allowing free immigration to the detriment of the inhabitants of western countries. You know Africa and Persia had its own internal slave trades that were arguably far worse?
5. Agreed

There is no humane slaughter. We wouldnt dream of sending our pets to die that way.
