    That’s just crying out for some to piss all over all the seats.

    If it's all artificial why do these 'non-binary' people always carry on like idiots? You could still be relatively normal and identify as whatever you want. It's like how trannies always end up as parodies of women or lesbians.

    Because you literally never interact with them in real life so your entire concept of them is formed by the headcases that get into the news. Loads of them do.

    In this instance the stereotype would seem that Americans are nice, pleasant, friendly, and polite! So I guess I just HAVE to agree with you this time.

    Oh no, you see them too and they seem to be increasing. I love sending the FoH back out to inform them that the veg has honey in it so where do they stand on bees and the chips have palm oil so where do they stand on that. It makes me sound clued up but really I'm just being pedantic because a vegan diet differs wildly from my own.

    Then again...flexitarians can fuck right off because it shouldn't even be a 'thing'.

    I've told this story before but the only transgender I've met almost refused to open their door to greet me. I was only asking if any of my post had turned up at hers. Rather than open the door like a normal person, she kept it locked and talked through the letterbox until she realised I wasn't there to point at her or something.

    I had a driving instructor show up as either Brian or Una before he/she passed away a few years ago. For me it was far more ballsy to come out then than now but I do sympathise with the lass you're talking about, probably made all the harder with all the other supposed genders springing up.

    No kidding a week or two ago my cousin in Ohio said a friend of his I met had decided he was now "Daisy" instead of "David". He's also married with a wife. Er, she. I really don't mind calling folks by their preferred pronouns or whatever the fuck because I believe in the idea that people should do whatever the fuck they want so long as they don't hurt anyone.

    Anyways, I guess she came out as a transgender woman and was subsequently fired from her job.

    I've met both her and the wife before and they were honestly very nice, lovely people. Just an interesting dynamic I never really thought of before.

    Ironically, the only other transgender person I ever met was also in the same area (just across the bridge into West Virginia) as another one of my cousin's friends worked at the local comic book shop and sure enough was a "her" despite you know, seemingly not be.

    I would have imagined living in Florida where things that seem out of the ordinary compared to the rest of the country are pretty normal it would be a more common occurance, but perhaps the passerby's just pass better? I don't know.

    Ironically, the first gay man I ever met in person was also up north in the Ohio/West Virginia area and again one of my cousin's friends. That was the early 2000s, though, of course, where being gay was still a huge deal.

    I have to say for the longest time I never really had time for these folks in the sense of "ok dude is it really that serious wear some panties and a skirt if you want" but nowadays I guess I'm a bit more empathetic to the idea that it is actually something to struggle with rather than just a fashion choice or whatever.

    To be honest, the gay and lesbian people I've met and worked with have bagloads of confidence. Real sound people that seem comfortable and confident in themselves. They've figured it out.

    I had a lad working for me over here for 2 years. Born a chick, identifying now as a guy (but kinda still looked like a chick with short hair). His girlfriend also worked in the company. He didn't mention his gender once in 2 years, was never offended when people referred to him as 'she' - which unfortunately, I did quite a lot - however, i tended to correct myself and carry on.
    I then met a similar guy (former girl) on a night out with a few mates - and it was the most painful 2 hours ever. Just constant rabbiting on about himself, about life's injustices and how basically everybody else in the world was to blame - that may be true, unfortunately, I had already established that he was a bit of a tit - so wasn't that bothered.

    I don't know what the point of this post it.

    Fyi. The apeshits up in Dublin council are spending 23 million on a white water rafting facility, during a housing crisis. To build one house in Dublin, 2019 according to the independent is 200k. So they could have built 115 houses with that money. For scale. That's equivalent to a housing estate for 115 homeless families.
    Where’s the fun in that though?

    House.
    Imagine if they had to calculate how much it would cost and Natalie Bennett had the calculator.

    £200,000 for a house to be built in Dublin seems very excessive though, no?

    No. It's stupidly expensive. I've heard of people moving from Dublin to London because it's cheaper.

    To build? Not to buy. I would have thought the cost of land alone in London would surpass that of Dublin.

    In short though, housing is all fucked. One day I think I'll live in a camper van.

    Depends where you're buying in London. You could probably by a shoebox in the armpit of Barking for £300k.

    I watched a documentary on those super basements people were/are building in London and I'm sure they said it's the only place in the world it's financially worthwhile because of the insane cost of land in London.

    The bit about him being scammed out of money by a fake private detective offering to dig up dirt on the bloke was a particular highlight.

    The £40k to the conman is probably the most interesting thing about the case, even if it is pocket change to Mr Musk.

    The Lib Dem candidate for my constituency is trans, Helen Belcher. Married with two grown up kids but think it was mid-2000s decided she was, well, a she now. Still married. Wonder what that transition was like for the family.
