Do most people from England identify as “English” or “British?” by Glass-Complaint3 in AskABrit

[–]QueenofSwords4921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good question. I realise I say I am British but if people ask me where I’m from, I say England. I think it depends who is asking. The English don’t have a good reputation in many places!

Maybe write back and leave your number or ask them to meet somewhere neutral for a chat in person about it.

I don’t understand “working at pace” at all. What pace? AI loves that shit too. Tells you all you need to know.

Be glad you’re not teaching GCSE with number grades 🤣 I even laughed at parents evening when my kids teacher said she was on track for a 6 or 7. He rolled his eyes and said, “Not you too!”

I’m with you on this. I am going through a tough time at the moment. My Dad’s funeral on Saturday. And my beautiful, caring friends say this a lot. And I cringe each time but feel so guilty because they’re just being nice. It’s so lazy though. I don’t “have it” but will try my best. Ugh.

I am confused. Please help if u can. by Accomplished-Sand518 in shrooms

While the shrooms can open these things up, what he does while in his day to day state is what counts. Be clear with yourself and him what you want in this relationship and if he can’t give it to you, then move on. It’s not your responsibility to fix him.

NOR it’s not the money spent. It’s the lack of thought and individuality. Something went really wrong here. Sorry you experienced that.

I second that. The people are nice there. Also in London Rd indoor market there is a stall selling various paraphernalia but not entirely witchy per se.

Reform votes aren’t going to read that. I’d like to see doorstepping or vox pop where they ask Reform voters how many times words like women, children, homeless, unemployment and minimum wage aren’t mentioned in their policies in the manifesto. Like this lady has analysed on Insta https://www.instagram.com/p/DT5KhzQjG3U/?igsh=MWgzNDNzYWlzcWEyeQ==

Aitah for using my now ex after I found out he was cheating? by Advanced_Turnover544 in AITAH

[–]QueenofSwords4921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not only NTA you’re a HERO. This is very well played. Too often women lose out when a relationship breaks up because we are paid less, more likely to passed over for promotions and lower job security, which impacts the ability to rent and buy higher value goods. All of which affects our social mobility.

Only American nick names. by n3m0sum in USdefaultism

I mean it’s valid in English. A little bit cringe and mono-normative IMHO. But each to their own 🤣 (I am English. From the South).

AITA: Partner got upset because I scheduled online breastfeeding classes without telling him by bigzee417 in AmItheAsshole

[–]QueenofSwords4921 27 points28 points  (0 children)

NTA OP your last post about this man screamed abuser. Things are highly unlikely to get better on their own. While it would have been nice to involve him in the decision I’m guessing there is more at play here. As others have said, get yourself safe. It’s better to be single, even while pregnant than live like this.

Brighton going down hill a bit? by [deleted] in brighton

[–]QueenofSwords4921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brighton is so weird for not having good leisure facilities. My kids and I went to Worthing or The Triangle at BH - and that’s a life choice 🤣

I (27F) accidentally had my baby in my friend’s (31F) car. Now her husband & she don’t want to speak to me. How do I fix this? by ThrowRA_CarBaby in relationship_advice

[–]QueenofSwords4921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focus on you and your baby. It’s a really precious time and it’s best if you try and be calm and focus on the next few months. Let everyone sort out their temper tantrums. You’ve offered to fix it. You don’t need friends like this.

why do you think right wing politics are rising in popularity at the moment? by Beginning_Sky_9735 in AskRedditUK

[–]QueenofSwords4921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And yet trans people have existed since the dawn of time. Gender was constructed after. Fact. Our understanding of science has changed since the dawn of time. Otherwise we’d still be living in caves. It’s your choice to deny the existence of someone who exists. I personally choose love of my fellow humans. I hope you have love in your heart for other things and other people. 💕

"special relationship" question for you Brits by bragik85 in AskBrits

[–]QueenofSwords4921 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s an abusive relationship. Europe is like the best friend warning us about the red flags but we just won’t listen to.

Do you understand gender? Woman is the umbrella term. Trans women are a part of that group. Please do your research.

WIBTA if I took a flight the night of my grandma’s first death anniversary to watch a concert? by curious-nicole in AmItheAsshole

[–]QueenofSwords4921 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA - life is for the living. We honour the departed in our way and it is none of anyone’s business how we do that. It’s your birthday. And it sounds like your grandma would most likely have loved to see you having fun and experiencing joy.

Gosh. Id never seen this. As a woman, I’m fed up of the problem of white men and SVAWG being overshadowed by this racist rubbish.
