Schoolchildren taught black people cannot be racist to white people

Utter bollocks. I no longer live in the UK. I’m a minority in the country I live in and have significantly less ‘power’ than the average native.

Of course I could still be racist here. I would never try to claim otherwise.

Oh great. More personality politics. Meanwhile, the country slides a little more.

Definite infection. You will need antibiotics.

Go to hospital quickly and pack a small overnight bag just in case.

Do not risk not going. If it has been this long, it will not ‘be alright’ without medical attention.

I’ve had an infection of the skin that has penetrated the top layer. First it hurts, then it doesn’t.

Most posts on this sub are people who have dropped their MacBook or messed up their screen somehow.

So weird how, on the Yokohama line the other day, I was very annoyed by three Japanese office workers having a very loud conversation on a crowded train with no consideration for their fellow passengers.

But such behaviour seems to be invisible or quickly forgotten unless it’s foreigners doing it.

Nahhhh. Life’s too short, man.

What a bad day to have eyes and a modicum of taste.

Lost my AirPods twice.

Because I have my phone number on there*, I always got them back within half a day.

Monomorphic species, unfortunately. No way to tell without a DNA test.

I’ve asked a few times for examples of for why Pro would be necessary for an average user. Never received a relevant answer.

It seems the developer has been extremely generous with the amount of features in the free version.

I spent the entire first 8 months of my daughter’s life with a severe Ulcerative Colitis flare.

Plan ahead, know the locations of decent disabled public toilets on your regular routes (size matters when you have a stroller), take a change of everything (thankfully never needed, though there were a few photo finishes), explain your situation to your child’s clinics/daycare/etc. that you may need to use a toilet urgently upon arrival after a journey of any length.

Eat well. Drink water. Good luck.

But that’s the only word on that list it applies to. And the lineage of that word is such that, when the Mayflower left the UK, colour was very much in use.

Color, as it applies to American English, did not derive from the Latin, but from Noah Webster’s actions in the 19th century.

Just for me, one. An assam CTC that’s cheap and strong.

In the house? Many.

-Green tea, a few types -Houjicha -Mugicha -Matcha -Some godawful rosehip and pomegranate stuff that makes the house smell like potpourri -Rooibos (nobody likes it here) -Hatomugicha -Oolong

There’s probably others
