@process @mickcarty I've been saying that for years! It makes sense! Even in Scotland, it would work! ๐ค ๐ง๏ธ
@VelvetDuchess You mean like sunshine after rain? Or the freshness of the air after a thunderstorm? Yeah, I feel it.
@process LOL, not a democratic country among them! Losers!
@process haha I hear you there! *hic*
@stueytheround @Michilino A very large welcome, Michilino! Any friend of Stuey's! ๐
@CherNohio Cher, I am the same. I am chronically sick and some days, all I can manage is a click on "favourite". But it means a lot to me to be among such lovely folk, even if I am the quiet one at the back of the room. I have my moments when I come out to play. How about we sit and quietly have a cuppa together and watch the world go by? โค๏ธ โ
@process Only 6?
@MidnightRider @Mandypar Bravo, indeed!
@Mandypar @MidnightRider It's a ridiculous wage for the amount of education they had to go through and the amount of hours they have to work.
@JoyfullyDazed Time for the 11th circuit to step in.

We're close to the end of the month, and we're shaking the cushions for change to meet J halfway.
Can you imagine what the election cycle would be without this place? Can you imagine all of the calamities we face without this oasis of safety and integrity?
If we like this social platform, we can keep it. US, together.
I know there are folks here who simply can't contribute financially, but there are folks here who can. If you can, please do.

@process They've had 14 years. Why else introduce this right now? It's so obvious!
Are you an 18 year old in the UK?
Fuck your uni studies.
Fuck your job.
Fuck that person youโre caring for.
Who is going to employ any school leaver, knowing theyโre going to be pulled into National Service when they turn 18?

I wonder if he's tired of all that 'winning' yet?
@mickcarty Draconian in the extreme. We bring our kids up to work through school to go to Uni or to get a start in their chosen work. This discourages and stalls them for at least 2 years. It's madness. Not to mention taking them away from their families whether or not they or their families can cope with that!
There are valid reasons that National Service was stopped and it was not just the end of the war!
