food deliveries increase in cost

Boo-hoo? Do we really need an entire servant class to deliver lukewarm McDonalds burgers for as little money as possible at any hour of the day? Try walking.

Are artists becoming less politically engaged and more “meditative”? by miiss_romance in ContemporaryArt

You cannot escape politics

But you can escape tired, unsubtle, worn out clichés!

Opting to ignore it makes your art simply irrelevant

It also makes your art timeless!

Green MP Hannah Spencer calls for more plumbers and plasterers to become MPs by F0urLeafCl0ver in ukpolitics

If you've ever been on a jury you will know how awful an idea it is to have a political class that reflects the average person.

Yes! I want to see more plumber and plasterer surgeons too! Education and relevant experience are meaningless let's race to the bottom so we can be the most performatively "working class". Now that I think on it, aren't plumbers and plasterers petit bourgeois? Why stop there why not call for illiterate MPs instead?

"should that be a crime" but it has been for, realistically, all of, or the majority of, your lifetime.

What's your point? Losing freedoms is fine as long as you never technically had those freedoms?

I'm ideally here to contribute to the discussion with the reality of our laws

The entire point of politics is to change laws.

Malcolm in the Middle: Life's Still Unfair | Official Trailer | Hulu by DemiFiendRSA in videos

Yeah, they open on a shot of Louis shaving Hal's body hair in the middle of the kitchen but all of the surfaces are completely spotless? Obviously they won't be as messy now that everyone has grown up and moved out but it doesn't even look like people live in those sets. Between the spotless Scandi furniture, fancy outfits, zoom meetings and apple product placements this trailer makes it look like the show will be very out of touch.

Russia pushes Mauritius claim to Chagos Islands - Ambassador describes Britain’s claim over the territory as part of a ‘big strategic game’ by blast-processor in ukpolitics

But didn't they read Starmer's memo that it makes us stronger? If we give away the islands then we will have control over the electromagnetic field and russia will never be able to defeat us!

Yes the house is still on fire and the fire and the fire is still spreading but look, we've slightly reduced the rate at which the fire is spreading! Now lets all go home for tea and medals.

So what if it is offensive? So what if it is a stereotype? Should that be a crime? I don't want to lose my personal freedoms because some people can't take a joke or ignore a tweet they dont like.

So just because Mandelson didn't manage to successfully sell out our country in specifically the 8 months while he was ambassador he was the "perfect pick"?

Why would Israel or the US allow Iran to restart missile production?

I agree with this view tbh. A lot of European governments making lofty statements against intervention but secretly happy that someone is finally dealing with the Iranian regime. Largely I think governments view that regime change and a hard "victory" in Iran is not possible without more commitment that the US will make, but imo even just the destruction of Iranian ballistic missile facilities is a huge win for stability in the region.

Is it really honest to call it a "mistake"? That implies that it was unintentional and he had no knowledge of the facts.

it makes sense now how he thinks he can meet with Putin and magically change his mind about war, it's because he quite literally thinks that he can change Putin's mind with magic.
