I wonder what the apologists from .ml have to say...

I love the concept and would wear something like that to a gig, just maybe not an octopus leg.

Just goes to show that, yes, stupid racist remarks can have a massive impact.

This cartoon was printed 110 years ago today on September 1, 1914.

World War 1 was in progress, though it wasn't called that yet. On the Western Front, Imperial Germany's invasion was underway and the French and British armies had been in retreat for almost a week. Among the engagements of this day was a skirmish near Néry, where a dismounted British cavalry division fought a dismounted German cavalry division. The outnumbered British forces prevailed, and three British soldiers were later awarded the prestigious Victoria Cross. The French and British forces continued to retreat, but they were doing so in an orderly manner, and in a few days they would be ready to counterattack in one of the most significant battles of the century.

Meanwhile, in rapidly-urbanizing America, Everett True was beginning to wonder if cars were a good idea after all.

A species of owl which usually breeds in Scotland and Russia has produced a brood in an area of Kent for the first time in five years.

Short-eared owls have reared two broods at Elmley Nature Reserve, on the Isle of Sheppey.

The birds often stay at the site for winter before heading north during summer, but weather conditions and food abundance has seen them stay put on Sheppey.

Simple: I fucking hate driving. I hate the smell, I hate the noise, and I hate the stress. Thr environmental impact isnt exactly a plus point either. You could say that I'm lucky to live in a place with good public transport, but I actively sought out a place with public transport because I didn't want to rely on a car.

Final nail on the coffin: I developed Menieres disease, so I am prone to intense vertigo attacks at short notice - I couldn't get a license even if I wanted one.

This is fucking retarded, of all the people to get free meals for life, they choose someone who is so rich it wouldn't surprise me if he could buy the entire chain of restaurants.

What if you are severely immuno-compromised during a pandemic? Just die, I suppose?

I'm quite impressed she's still able to travel at 101. My mum's in her mid eighties and really struggles now.

To be fair, you are doing something wrong if you're app segfaults no matter what anguage you wrote it in...

HR is never about employee needs. Their role is to protect the interests of the business, especially with respect to employment law. I would argue that HR failed abysmally in this case, but not because it sucked for the hiring manager or the candidate, but because the business lost out on a talented individual and put the business at risk of a law suit.

I just tried this with my fiance. She was indeed fascinated. And confused.
