Drop the cat food in the bowl. You have twenty seconds to comply.

Good point! When we're at home managing ourselves, we can take advantage of all kinds of productivity hacks that wouldn't go down so well in the office.

Remember: with conservatives it's always projection.

Mogg thought you were slacking off wanking at home.

You're right. Sometimes Hitchins said things that were only 6/10 smart, not 10/10. Now if you'll excuse me I'm going to have to post a bunch of Spongebob memes to 196 to recover the karma I'm about to lose.

It's not just the property developers. Most people who've spent a year or more paying off their mortgages don't want their asset devalued by ending the housing crisis. No government would bring down the cost of housing because democracy will prevent it until renters are a majority of sufficient size to overwhelm homeowners, landlords, vested interests, and the dumbfucks they gaslight.

How did OP get the ice cream from the tub to the bowl?

Surely if you're homeless and buying a laptop, then you're DESPERATE for a laptop. Jerks can use that against you.

Updated advice. It's a long shot, but it's worth trying to force the Tories into third place. Share with your local friends.

 

Happy Pride, Kemi.

Edit: I don't have any answers. I stole it from https://feddit.uk/c/okmatewanker because I thought it deserved a bigger audience.

 

It's never a "no" though, is it?

 

Thanks to the glorious shovelling of Classic Who onto BBC IPlayer, I have been enjoying a glut of mid-80s classic Who.

It struck me how many of the CBaker-McCoy era stories are dystopian tales, reflecting the pro-establishment neo-captialist society that the writers felt was being inflicted on them.

Varos, Paradise Towers and Terra Alpha (of Happiness Patrol) are obvious examples; Necros (Revelation of the Daleks) and is a particularly nasty one. Even Trial of a Timelord was, at its heart, a tale of authoritarianism and narrative control.

Modern Britain is clearly in another phase like the 80s. If anything, the authoritarianism is more extreme, and the government's avarice more naked.

So where are the writers' reactions to that nowadays? Whenever the show has recently attempted to address societal issues, it has been either a direct sermon like Orphan 55 or an incompetent muddle like Kerblam.

Where are the dystopias?
