Went in August and the nurse messed up with the needle, so I wasn't able to donate. Then I booked for last week and they cancelled it by email when I was on my way to the centre. Why does nobody want my cherished elite AB- blood?

the polls don't correct for the 'shy Trump voter' effect

They absolutely do, or try to. The pollsters have been working on their methodologies massively in recent years since fucking up so badly with him before. Problem is, we don't know, and they don't know, if they've over- or under-corrected.

TLD = to do list

erm...

It had strong vibes of 'guess who's back-scratching mates with a Graun journo'. Particularly liked the caption 'Xanthe Dewsnap puts her feet up after a long morning’s sheepskin bootmaking'.

Definitely wearing a Proud Boys cap yesterday tho.

thought i'd give cerys matthews a blast sunday morning

Never ever do that - unbelievably dreadful. Double the irritating voice/utter nonsense of MAH, with none of the great music - think she's actually employed to drive listeners away so they can shut 6M down.

Another poll in Iowa on the same day gives Trump an 8% lead. Not as reputable pollsters as Selzer, but still, it's the hope that kills you.

It's the guy in the Farage riots

Call them what they were.

I am choosing to believe Harris will win comfortably. Solely because I want a few days of optimism before the world turns very dark next week.

Telegraph has had letters from 'dozens of pensioners' and thinks this is the best example of an ordinary family being shafted...

So, saw Lemonheads last year, and Evan Dando looked like he was holding things together, apparently now married and living in Brazil or somesuch and off the gear. Saw him solo last night, guy is an utter fucking casualty - utterly shambolic, losing his way in songs, forgetting words, just clearly off his head. At one stage he spent a few minutes making a crap paper airplane out of what might have been a setlist. Was with a friend who's another unfortunate drug addict, and he couldn't believe Dando was on the stage in that state (altho tbf Dando didn't disappear three-quarters of the way through the gig to score like my mate did). Real shame.

Sally has only eaten one shit in her life, and it was a huge human one (identified by having used tissues around it). No idea why it was more palatable than fox/other dog/her own shit. Maybe heroin residue.

^yup - first time I've watched the video. Also last time.

And there we are.

Is this a GC quote, or should I be worried?

You shouldn't, it was me who first posted it, then everyone else did, suggesting I'm widely on the ignore lists...

This is funny, unless you're the one finding out you're on everyone's ignore list...

Maybe just delete that

Another half term another Airbnb.

Alpro milk then.

Beautifully done, what are the sizings? (wouldn't have a clue on fair/realistic pricing)

Have you read Rousseau? Specifically «Du contrat social»

So, why should the colonials still be bending the knee, precisely? At the time the British invaded India, the Mughal Empire had roughly a third of the world's economic wealth. When the British left, it was about 0.5%. During the Raj, there were regular famines, killing tens of millions, including one just before Indian independence, all exacerbated by corrupt/exploitative/inhumane British misrule; since independence, there have been none.

But, railways and cricket...

Go back to it in a bit. There are no new rules that you don't know already and once you get the big bit of the clue, the other bit falls into place.

I don’t want to sound all Anti-Woke but

Puerto Rico is garbage for one.

...and Pennsylvania has a massive PR population. It would be hilarious if this race rally cost Trump one of the most-prized swing states.

Mind you, I'm clutching at any straw because I'm getting the fear about this election. Midsummer, I honestly thought that once the Dems had put in a non-senile head, and Trump kept being Trump, only angrier at being beaten by a Black woman, voters would incrementally start edging away from the howling extremists. Honestly expected she'd win by 5-6%, so clearly even the fixed election nonsense claims wouldn't get any purchase. Not seeing that now.
