Cup O'Tea

@SarahTheHaider File them where you know where to look for them when you need them. Reminding everything you ever learn is not going to happen.

A big problem I have with notetaking: Even the best of notes disappear into the void. No matter where I write notebook or doc or app), eventually I’ll just forget about them. Has anyone figured out a solution?

@emmylanepotter They aren't hot shit though are they? Look at the state of them.

Nicole Kidman is 58 and Sandra Bullock is 61, and they are both roughly in the age range of the Golden Girls actresses when the show first aired but they're presented as hot shit (which they are). Wild how radically our cultural ideas about women over 50 have shifted since 1985.

@hanaamurakami I'd like you more. I can't stand anime.

If Japan never created anime, do you think people would still love us the same way? 🇯🇵

@zoomafrika1 Get them a globe and leave them to it

How do I explain it to my kids?

@PstafarianPrice I thought in their heads there was no difference and they all pass anyway?

um.

@BritishBastardX I can only wish this was a more frequent occurrence

🚨A small dinghy full of illegal migrants has capsized in the English Channel after reportedly losing control in rough conditions. Authorities confirm that 23 people are currently missing, while 3 individuals have been rescued safely and are receiving urgent care. I wont lose no sleep, will you?

@Espalda @ontheseislands @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell You're appallingly low IQ.

@CupOTeaYo @ontheseislands @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Blimey bloke buzz off

Remember the people who heard the terror in that little girl’s voice, then turned around and said she was a demon child—and that the grown-ass man was the one we should feel sorry for. Yeah, fuck those people.

@ontheseislands @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell What cunts are liking this gibberish?

@DonkinFaith @CupOTeaYo @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Ignore bot see use of the word hatchet, cupoftea is as English as a kangaroo.

@Espalda @ontheseislands @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Well, you didn't did you. What the fuck is a nationer anyway?

@CupOTeaYo @ontheseislands @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell I called you a nonce nationer.

@sibletos @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell I'm not tutting. I don't know what's so hard to understand. The question we posed as to how she could be considered the aggressor and the answer is "the weapons". I then took issue with this ridiculous image of a woman being cornered in a kitchen which has no similarity at all.

@CupOTeaYo @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Yea u sound like u believe her lol. Never said she wasn't, just that she had every right and that u can be angry & scared at once. Incredible that u watched a kid yell "get away from us kidbasher" and all u can do is tut that she was tooled up. P clear why she felt the need to be

@melliellimelli @helenstaniland Well then I can only repeat how insane I find it that you would ever wear them.

@CupOTeaYo @helenstaniland So not a huge amount of hyperbole.

It's an odd idea - to totally fuck up the female athletes' feet before the games.

@melliellimelli @helenstaniland No I get that there's a degree of discomfort, but "totally fuck your feet up" seems extreme. It's either an exaggeration, or it means it's ludicrous to ever wear them.

@CupOTeaYo @helenstaniland Some women choose looks over comfort - that is their prerogative. Some of them pretend that heels can be comfortable - they are lying, sometimes even to themselves, because they want to pretend that they are not choosing looks over comfort🤷‍♀️

@AjaTheEmpress @DonkinFaith @Jonnywsbell I didn't say it like it was an issue, I said it to contrast with the statement painting her as frightened and timid. In her own words she was angry.

@CupOTeaYo @DonkinFaith @Jonnywsbell You say "but was angry" like that's a issue. Women and girls are allowed to be angry, especially when we are being harassed.

@lagomsensei @AjaTheEmpress @AlbaVeeDub I'm just saying there's reasons to think she was an aggressor other than her class. Carrying weapons around and brandishing them has to be considered.

@CupOTeaYo @AjaTheEmpress @AlbaVeeDub Maybe being a woman gave me more intuition but I saw a scared child. Also I am Glaswegian and I see lower working class people every day…I know a bam when I see one and I didn’t see one in that video.

@sibletos @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Well her own testimony was that she was angry. Given that the context is that we're believing her testimony, we have to accept this surely?

@CupOTeaYo @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell You've no idea how she felt lol. If she was angry, she had every right given she'd just been perved on by a grown man—who then called his sister to help him jump the kids. You can be both frightened + angry. She just wanted him to go away; he kept goading her like the pred he is

@Espalda @ontheseislands @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Well I can't be British then I suppose.

@CupOTeaYo @ontheseislands @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Your bio already proved you are insane.

@SarahAHoyt I don't.

I'm sick and tired of being told the difference between main stream and genre writing is a matter of intelligence of writers or readers. That is self-flattering nonsense from people who want to write about unpleasant people doing unpleasant things in the most boring way possible. :-P You know where the link to the rant is.

@esjesjesj It's still very shit

You realize this doesn’t mean that most new babies are named Mohammed right?

@ItsAndyRyan Who are you, and why did anyone care what your personal pedantry rules are?

For language pedantry, my rule is whether a useful meaning is being lost. It's handy to have a term than means 'not figurative', so I bemoan 'literally' being applied to metaphors. But I ask defenders of 'decimate' – how often does anyone want to say 'one in ten men were killed'?

@ontheseislands @Espalda @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Sorry but I just have to say... you went from being convinced I'm American to being convinced I'm NOT American in the space of a few replies, and you think this is something I'M doing, rather than, for example, you being insane?

@CupOTeaYo @Espalda @DonkinFaith @AjaTheEmpress @Jonnywsbell Why would you do this with your life? I’m now convinced you’re not even an American just pretending to be one as well, you should be ashamed. What a complete waste.
