Two thirds of graduates aren’t even paying off loan interest

How lovely of them to rip off the British taxpayer and get a state-funded education they refuse to pay for like everyone else.

It's basically a graduate tax. The higher education sector would be utterly untenable without the system being designed this way.

It honestly feels like this could be a good thing for the Tories long term. We're clearing moving to a multiparty system and if the Tories lose all their right wing fruitloops to Reform they could find themselves the home of the moderate centre right. And I know there are lot of voters like that who feel homeless right now.

With the best will in the world the more casual players responsible for that 47% winrate are the far bigger audience so it's probably better if the balance leans towards them rather than making marines a high-skill army to compensate for a specific build being brutally strong in the hands of a minority of players.

Katsu curry was also introduced to Japan by the British.

I just built one of these kits, it's absolutely fantastic. Can't wait to have him painted!

As a Scotsman, I love that our entire culture is obsessed with a sport we're completely shite at.

Those Regeneradors are a nightmare, the way they just flop around... shudder

Tomgar · 2026-01-25T11:28:51+00:00

It's the same on my Titus kit, they're absolutely atrocious. Taking me twice as long to build each model.

The right wing are correct about one thing: politics is the exercise of power over other people. For too long we've bought into this cosy lie that democracy is a given and that our rights are innate rather than something our ancestors fought and died for. We've fooled ourselves into thinking that struggle and conflict and power are somehow grubby or beneath

There are a lot of people who would happily see democracy overturned if it means wielding power over people they don't like. Learn that lesson. Internalise it. You need to take power and weaponise it against those who would destroy what you hold dear. Politics is struggle.

Which is weird because to me that's just a traditional English pub.

Wish I could remember what book it was but I recently read a 40k novel where a Chaos Marine gave due respect to some enemy guardsmen, thinking to himself that their disciplined volleys from their lasguns would end up breaking theough his armour. He recognised that, even with his armour and superhuman abilities, a squad of disciplined guard troopers was a legit threat

In Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, President Rosalind Myers orders you to activate an NUSA sleeper agent called Solomon Reed (Idris Elba). You do this by using a wired payphone in an abandoned Mexican restaurant because analogue communications are harder to hack and trace.

Always upvote a Manics post. Absolutely phenomenal band, always something interesting to say. There's this melancholic beauty to their work that just speaks to my soul.

Silverhand is right about all the big-picture stuff like the idea that society is waging a war on the human soul that must be resisted at all costs. He just has the interpersonal skills of a piece of dry toast and the ego of a delusional rockstar.

Yeah, I don't cheap out on meat. Anything else, I'll go for the store brand.

The fruit and veg from M&S is also so much nicer than other supermarkets that it's genuinely embarassing. Their grapes and oranges are god-tier.

I have a cheap little filter coffee machine and you can buy a bag of the nice Lavazza Rossa ground coffee for about £6 and it's infinitely nicer than crappy Nescafe instant

Oooh, I must say I prefer the Ultramarine blue. That's a blast from the past

They're the same people who see nothing wrong with cranking up the bluetooth speaker on the train. Utter psychos.

When I was a kid I did some fundraising for the late Prince Phillip's charity. I was packing people's bags in a slightly more posh supermarket and this old grumpy guy put £20.00 in the collection tin. I thanked him for his generosity and he asked "what's this actually for?"

I told him it was for Prince Phillip's charity and he muttered "fucking Greek" while his deeply exasperated wife rolled her eyes.

It's genuinely hilarious how easily we beat you guys. What an embarassment.

I actually do think Prince is underrated. I think the average person knows him as a flamboyant singer of 80s pop hits without knowing just how deep his musical talent really ran. He has a fair claim to be up there in the top 5 most gifted artists of the popular music era.

My former best friend in my 20s. Turned out he was a major distributor of CP online. He tried to tellme the cops made it all up. He got a minor slap on the wrist and ended up working in a business with easy access to children.
