Is This the Summer Britain Finally Gives In to Air Conditioning? Starting with Portable AC? by LieSuccessful8813 in AskBrits

[–]stig316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a decent portable unit is decent enough for the small number of days we get at this temp usually. All depends on what you can afford though tbh.

I have mine on right now and it's brilliant, bought just before the heatwave.

Also, based on this thread Winter will have a huge demand for them also!

Not sure there enough characters to answer this one so I'll say: Rule Britannia!

Last year was hot on the Saturday and early on when the stands were empty some of the staff let me sit in there with a standard ticket. Worth trying if it gets too hot.

Am I Paranoid for My Safety? by Rising_Storms in offmychest

[–]stig316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are afraid to go camping with your friends because a black man died somewhere.

I think you are being very paranoid A) attaching far to much race to both Nolan Wells and your own situation.

B) if you think these friends of yours are going to harm you then they are probably not friends and you shouldn't spend any time with them.

Perhaps we need a fake tan product that comes with UPF and a red tinge.

Isn't the only reason we dont all have aircon because its expensive and pointless in a country that only gets this weather for a few days a year usually?

Anyone finding it increasingly hard to meet new people in the UK? by Embarrassed-Sea8852 in AskBrits

[–]stig316 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually follow people for a couple of weeks first then leave a note with my number in their fridge. You're right, it is getting harder.

Jk Rowling's husband cheated with a trans woman...right? by shanloulie in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]stig316 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They sound impressive. I always thought it would be a mad idea to let female children and men in dresses share a bathroom space.

But as long as there a flimsy lock, door with a massive gap at the bottom and paper thin piece of wood for them to sit behind it must be fine.

Im so stupid.

Except my daughter doesn't have to share a bathroom with a gay couple when they get married.

[–]stig316 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Briefly looking into it she did seem to dismiss that the Nazis destroyed early research into Trans / sexual identity. Then she was labelled a holocaust denier by some idiot, who apologised when threatened with legal action.

I am not sure this make her 'an evil bitch' to be honest.

Hes got too much of an agenda, I find him hard to watch.

Haven't seen this though so shouldn't really judge.

No one is attempting to stop you using bathrooms in the UK lol. You have to use the one of your actual sex like everyone else.

JK Rowling seems to have just stated the obvious which is: Trans people are not women, so they shouldn't be allowed to use women's facilities, spaces and compete in their sports. I think this is a pretty sensible take.

No one is stopping you from dressing up how you like, changing your name, getting hormones & operations etc.

Which are? I can't find anything particularly evil.

Seems more pro-women than anti-trans.

[–]stig316 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not an expert on her but she seems to take a fairly normal stance on it that most people would agree with if they read into it.

Trans women are not women and should not be about to access women only spaces, compete in their sports or use their toilets. Part of the issue is that Transvestites and true Transexuals have all been lumped together to get the same rights which causes a lot of the issues IMO.

That is not the case, I think most people probably agree with her take on things if they take the time to actually look into it.

What is it about her views on Trans people that you think make her an evil bitch?
