While the right wing media in the UK ignored the climate crisis in their coverage and instead focused on the “positive” side with front pages full of children eating ice cream and people at the beach.

“Last year, the Guardian reported on how the Queen’s consent process had been used to allow the royal family to vet more than 1,000 laws during the reign of Elizabeth II before parliament was permitted to debate them.

Buckingham Palace has repeatedly claimed that Queen’s consent is a purely formal process that does not result in substantive changes to policy.

I can’t see anyone else coughing up the reported $1billion dollars per four-year world cup cycle FIFA were demanding. Explains why EA were so desperately pushing the Ultimate Team loot boxes.

I’m lactose intolerant so suffer from stomach issues regularly, but I’m going to see if drinking Coke Zero also has a similar affect.

Yeah same here. Coming from an Indian background I always found it strange watching western tv shows where people were wearing shoes in lying on a bed!

I think it really shows how crypto would struggle to scale for mainstream use

The fact that the black rectangle at the end was a bug is hilarious.

Maybe not soon, but I expect Formula One will merge with Formula E in the not too distant future

That was my first thought too

Totally blew my mind a few years ago when a coworker revealed he didn’t have one and had no idea what we were talking about. I always found him to be a little narcissistic and pretty unemphatic; always wondered if they were connected to the lack of an inner voice.

You mean about Abercrombie & Fitch?

A lot of people don't belong (in our clothes), and they can't belong. Are we exclusionary? Absolutely."[1]
