Amps Feeling threatened Hugo?

You’d be happy to live in Airstrip One would you?!

    Not to hand any support to Hugo here, but having read up a bit, that prof is a fucking moron.

    The circular logic and the metaphoric use of “life” rather than literal, when convenient, doesn’t make any sense. Maybe it does inside of the lily white Ivory Towers of academia where she lives? Dunno. I guess that’s what happens when you’re born of an Indian diplomat. afforded a life as a world traveler, given an education in Vienna, and then a position as an English Professor at Cambridge. One’s narcissism becomes a fake sense of solidarity. I’m sure she gets what it’s like to be a poor black kid in East St. Louis. Not to go all ad hominem, but maybe shut the fuck up?

    To go further down the unpopular opinion route…I have a Doctorate in Public Health. I don’t go around calling myself “Dr. jonnatonyeah”. Why? Because I can’t prescribe shit. I’m a doctor by letters only. You teach English, love.

    hugopal That guy was sacked by his company for dragging them into the debate and for bringing the media onto their doorstep, the message itself wasn’t a sackable offence. They stated as a company they had already shown that they were in support of BLM. So that’s a false equivalency.

      I believe every word of this. A French guy writes a thread:

        I wad under the impression that some of those tweets by that professor were photoshop jobs and she’s currently taking the mail to court for libel for printing them. But maybe I’m wrong.

        Homegrove Fuckwit Brexiteers getting what they voted for without realising it is definitely my kind of jam.

            Wally unfortunately it affects us all

            Me less so now that I’m Irish though. lol

                bosstrabs lol. Good for you 👍🏻

                The UK has officially went to shit. I get that people generally say that as they get older and become more informed about politics but we have a crooked cabinet and live in the age of zero accountability. Not to mention the surge of xenophobic racism that’s making it’s way back.

                I’m still looking at Toronto when Covid is done.

                    I don’t recall having to fill in those details.

                    But, since you ask, both grandmothers are Irish Catholic, came to England and married English protestants. A weird symmetry there.

                    Lol, that certainly whittles down your place of residence if you move to northern ireland, dave!

                      -si- I’d hang around with the few Chinese (common language) and we could all live huddled in fear.

                        But anyway I’d live in Galway, very nice it is.

                        Ed, did you know Howth’s Aqua Restaurant was voted the best seafood restaurant in the world, 4 years in a row?
                        Handy bit of knowledge for quiz night that

                          Wally I’m still looking at Toronto when Covid is done

                          In the process of negotiating a work-remote situation that’ll allow me to live down in Sayulita for a few months once I’m off COVID activation. Need a break from all this.
