I’m old and I smell exquisite. I know a lot of old people, and none of them smell of ketchup, let alone armpit or butt. If the man reeks, it’s because he has poor personal hygiene, not because he’s old. It’s you that’s denigrating the elderly by saying we stink.

It’s sooo clickbaity - I didn’t even click because I knew how boring the actual story would be.

I hate headlines like this. There is no “chaos”. A bunch of politicians are arguing and having meetings. Bureaucracy chunters along as usual. Paralympics are happening.

If the politicians were having shootouts in the Champs Elysées and disrupting traffic then yes, a bit of chaos in Paris. But they’re not. Sigh.

He then shared particular frustration with the sudden change in his opponent, suggesting that the Democrats had orchestrated Biden’s withdrawal to improve their chances.

Gosh, I don’t think anyone else has figured that out! This guy is hella smart.

There’s no headphone jack… but I just Bluetooth audio to my hearing aids, so it’s not a problem.

My phone has two SIM slots (Oppo Find X3).

UK as well, fascists have been spouting bullshit here for decades.

I didn’t delete my comments, they’re welcome to keep that pile of rubbish. (Though the black swan story did get a bit of traction, even a vague death threat!)

Fuck spez.

Some of the churches where I live have a big banner outside that says, “Try praying”. It strikes me as comically desperate. Imagine a car dealership with a “Try driving” banner, a restaurant with “Try eating”.

I was searching for a fix for some MS bullshit and clicked on a link that had a good answer… and lo and behold, Reddit. “Came for the cats, stayed for the empathy.” Yes, they still have that on the banner. Lol!!

I deleted my account during the “strike”, and this was my first time back. I couldn’t upvote the poster, and for a second that made me sad.

My father, a union organiser: “You can love the company all you like, but the company will never love you back.”

Stood me in good stead down the years.

Go on go on go on go on go on go on go on go go on go on go on

I was thrilled to find my spirit animal available as a username.

I don’t generally judge people based on their appearance, but this man’s face gives me the heebie-jeebies. There’s something alienating about the lack of affect he seems to have, plus his features seem to be an approximation of a human face - the mouth is too small, the ears too big, the forehead too shiny…

Lol!
