As a person of Gay Voice experience I think more characters should be free to sound like CGI Pinocchio. Acting is such a famously gay field yet actors are told to act straight to get their parts… we need more characters with Starbucks barista voice and I think we should start dubbing over old films to right a historical wrong, starting with an even gayer version of Luke Skywalker

Every time i see a cute picture of sheep in the briddish countryside I'm like aww but then the nasty little commie in the back of my head goes "sheep herds like this were the commodity responsible for the enclosure of the commons/highland clearances as well as the destruction of native woodlands and uplands"

cursmudgeon

As I recall there was a long period before the loss of the commons where sheep were still a primary livestock. The commons existed specifically as a way for many shepherds to graze their sheep on shared land held in common without having to own it personally. The commons were enclosed by lords and gentry, don’t blame the sheep.

Yeah that’s a legitimate and good response, however the countryside itself has been utterly and intensively shaped for the desires of the land-owning class. England in particular then sells its vision of itself as central, beautiful, ancient, justified, untouchable and timeless based on the marketing of its shared vision. You can analyse the vision of sheep/countryside in several different ways which are all valid - but why is it presented for your consumption in the first place? Is it about the sheep? I can speak passionately on the topic for 10 more posts please do not engage me further

something truly horrific about clicking an article about a national or global tragedy only for a pop up to say you only have 3 more free articles this month and then each paragraph of the piece is divided by picture ads for skin creams while a video of a car commercial plays automatically in the corner no matter how far you scroll

je pense que les americains et les anglais savent pas combien de l’internet est accommode pour ils. presque tous des messages sont en anglais. si ils sont pas, il y a une translation beaucoup de temps. il y a des enfants qui parlent en anglais et c’est pas leur premiere langue, mais ils doivent le faire parce que quand ils le font pas il y a personne qui parlent avec leurs. et c’est pas de probleme de parler en une autre langue, mais le probleme c’est que on s’adapte pour les anglais TOUT le temps et quand on veut faire une post en sa propre langue, les anglais sont la pour dire ‘WHY CANT YOU JUST TALK ENGLISH’. on parle en anglais tout le temps, donne nous cet moment.

[image ID: an instagram comment by anne.harvey.7359 says “I’m afraid Monty that you haven’t got it right. Your garden is just an overgrown mess. You need to look at Nigel Dunnett to see how to get the ‘wild’ look right.” Monty Don replies, “Thanks for letting me know- and a very happy Christmas to you too.” /end ID]

Imagine thinking you can say this to Monty Don…the disrespect…the audacity….. the rudeness….. unbelievable…

A sleight-of-hand magician routine that's also a stand-up comedy set about ADHD. Like I'm just there complaining about how I always lose or forget stuff, I change subject as I lose your track of thought, then suddenly remember that I was holding a fan in my hand and -

Where the FUCK did it go??

I ask the audience if they saw where it went. Not in my sleeve, there's just a handkerchief there. Nothing in my pockets. FUck, I don't even have any pockets. No, wait, was it in the - [a dove emerges from an improbable place] aw fuck I forgot to return that to the vet.

Now distracted by tugging a comical length of handkerchiefs out of my sleeve, I'll start telling the story of why, exactly, I was borrowing a pigeon from a vet in the first place. The story, which is lengthy, still doesn't go on as long as the string of handkerchiefs.
