The "debate" was unreal, sexist and full of faux concern about the disabled.

A majority of the NI population backs this change, they need to stop voting for assholes/stop the not vote at all. Or Stormont could listen once in a while.

this is the kind of thing that really annoys me about capitalism

twitter shares down after profits warning

companies like these and the constant need to produce a better tweaked product
there are only so many self obsessed humans who feel the need to tell us all about their breakfast, once twitter has signed them all up, unless they start creating made up users or building humans in a laboratory to add to the numbers there are physically no more people they can encourage in , it is after all just a website that allows you to type so many characters in a box

twitter doesn't really have anywhere to go but the whole financial system expects them to pull some magic rabbit out of the hat, to reward investors, and to keep developing their x character text box

can't they just be happy with what they've got and try and take advantage of their current users and extort more money from them ?

capitalism sucks

Twitter is for cunts

and there are only so many cunts in the world, and they've already signed up to twitter years ago

hall and oats have a lot to answer for

That's what annoys you about capitalism?!

twitter shares down after profits warning

How is any of this a problem with capitalism?

Investors probably recognise that twitter is not going to magic a rabbit out of the hat, which is why they are paying less for twitter stock.

When Patient A made a complaint to the General Medical Council (GMC), Osborne begged her to retract it, telling her in threatening emails over a 10-day period that it would “destroy” his family, and that “I will make sure you pay”.

Nice guy

https://twitter.com/hashtag/stormontabortiondebate?f=tweets&vertical=default&src=hash the debate tweets on the NI abortion law debate. That's not even the worst, once the Hansard is out the "eugenics" and "IRA" and other BS comparisons are out for all of us to see.

Over half of Stormont, into the fucking sea.

Pat Sharp has let himself go.

Messi?

Stupid as well, leaving a trail of emails.

Correct me if i'm wrong but Twitter has never made a profit…

"Twitter reported a net loss of $90m (£62m) for the last three months of 2015 versus a loss of $125m a year ago."

Doctor's hours reduced.

.....2nd down. A bit further than that it starts to be a bit bible belt for some weird reason....

Two years for killing two young girls on a zebra crossing through dangerous driving? I don't agree with sentence inflation, but that is derisory.
