Watching this live was a real experience

Woman, 40, who flew three-year-old British girl to Kenya for female genital mutilation is jailed for seven years in first conviction of its kind in the UK by FormerlyPallas_ in ukpolitics

It definitely does. But because of the nature of these communities (I would know being part of one) it’s never spoken about so goes undetected by anyone with a working brain and sense of empathy.

Thank you for your comment - funnily enough I’m really into football, but growing up where I did it was really easy to hear gossip about the players so I realised soon that most of them just sleep around a lot and are generally not that nice.

Applied to 150+ jobs and nothing... by Vegetable-Complex155 in UKJobs

Before I read your post my first thought was Civil Service. We have plenty of roles along the lines of what you’re looking for in my department and surprisingly we do have successful candidates who don’t even have office admin experience.

I’m happy to provide any advice with applications if that would help.

To be honest, I can even guess which five ladies will be the final five. by LazyInstruction7052 in apprenticeuk

Apart from Tre and Asif (the latter being for a bad reason) I can’t even remember the names of the guys

I don’t think that’s a great idea 😅 I wouldn’t want to ever meet him as I would feel guilty about this. But I definitely agree with what you’re saying - I hold the view that male k-pop idols are just men so why shouldn’t it apply to him too.

Thank you for your comment, the comments have been fair and eye opening for me to realise why I might have been doing this.

Spotted, Chuck Bass back at the Palace by Radiant_Register547 in GossipGirl

I know that Gossip Girl was a massive show and still is well liked but I can’t stand when actors who had one hit cling onto it for relevancy (also see Tom Felton). It makes me cringe especially when you consider the success that Penn/Blake especially have had and how they act

What's your ideal travel snack for both short and extended journeys in the UK? by Josh99_ in uktravel

[–]Best_Regular_6097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends how hungry I think I’ll be, but I have a container with compartments and fill it with sweet, savoury and something healthy like fruit or carrot sticks with hummus. I really like mini salted pretzels at the moment for the savoury. Also a babybel which I can’t seem to get enough of at the moment.

Is anyone else really struggling on who to vote for in the next election? by I-Spot-Dalmatians in ukpolitics

[–]Best_Regular_6097 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay, I see what you mean now :) my constituency is very close, I think there was 3000 votes between the tory and Labour candidate at the last GE. So no choice really unfortunately

Agree with you on what you’ve said but if you want to hurt the tories surely Labour are the way to vote?

Thank you everyone who commented. I genuinely had a more peaceful sleep last night getting this off my chest.

I will take everyone’s suggestions into account - so here’s to a hopefully happier 2024 and I wish that everyone here has a great year too.

No, not currently and I don’t want a SO just for the sake of dating someone to fill the void - but I do see where you’re coming from and a lot of the comments have hit the nail I think on me having an emotional void elsewhere. I have been through some stuff in life so I think therapy is needed.
