Honestly, the BBC never report on protests, and the people behind the protests always get mad about it. They just aren’t newsworthy unless something happens besides the fact of a protest.
Essentially, this story is free advertising for the protest.
It’s the colours.
When I was five, my mum tied red, white and blue ribbons in my hair for the royal wedding. Obviously my hair ribbons didn’t resemble the Union Jack. But everyone knew what they represented, nonetheless.
She has accused him both of rape and of grooming her. What on earth do you think her punching him in the stomach while he forcibly deep throated her was supposed to be?
This has been highlighted in the news coverage.
Both child grooming and emotional and sexual assault are illegal in the UK, bizarre as this may seem to you.
I mean, I’d never use Notepad. Download Notepad++, it’s better in literally every way.
Doesn’t have formatting, unless Notepad has got really adventurous at some point in the last decade or two.
Slightly annoyed about this, as I do use Wordpad (it’s lightweight and useful for quick notes that I want to mark up with bold and italic). I don’t always want to watch Word or Libreoffice load for twenty to thirty seconds.
Shitty decision, happy to be Wordpad’s one fan.
…for entertainment. For fun.
I don’t think many of us would come here if it wasn’t fun.
I keep bookmarks whenever I get them, also picture postcards etc. I have some that I’ve bought, others I’ve made (e.g. knitted or embroidered). Mainly I use strips of thin white card that I razor off an A4 sheet.
The thing is you aren’t the audience. Discussion about anti-Asian racism in English tends to be focused on the experiences of e.g. Asian-American people and on the racist abuse they get from white people.
It’s actually that exact kind of self-moderation, surely? “hang on, doesn’t this word suck, let’s not use it”?
This reminds me of the not-very-edifying-at-all moment when “joey” became a universal term of abuse in UK playgrounds.
Always amuses me a bit when people say Kindles don’t support EPUB, since I’ve been stripping DRM from my books and storing them in Calibre (enabling transparent conversion between EPUB and Amazon’s formats) for thirteen years without a hitch. You should be doing this on any platform if you want to keep your books.
It’s beyond me why anyone who so much as knows what FOSS stands for wouldn’t do the same.
