I love Christmas because it’s one of the few times a year we teach children that it is a good thing to leave offerings for a deity. We don’t give offerings to deities like we used to…

The government be like “no drs don’t strike we need you to work in poor conditions and be happy about it” whilst systematically destroying the NHS by forcing British doctors to seek jobs abroad and reducing the intake of British medical students at uni

My iPhone upgraded to this ugly looking layout overnight and idk how to get the old look back. I didn’t even say yes to the upgrade it just happened without me knowing. It’s got an ugly see through design.

I got an email from Netflix about their acquisition of Warner Bros and in the email it mentioned that this adds to their iconic franchises such as Friends. Netflix literally just announced Friends is leaving Netflix. Can’t trust them, I’m worried for the future of entertainment.

New annoying AI text has the phrase along the lines of “the X is clear -”, for example, the evidence is clear, the results are clear, the meaning is clear, the reports are clear. It’s everywhere.
