@heoff30192 @_britmonkey Not quite, it's not made of clay. It's clay soil. It's been accumulating heat from the passengers, train engines and the rails (brakes=friction=heat) for over a century. That heat is released back into the tunnels and platforms. It's like being in a sweaty armpit even in winter

@_britmonkey Someone was also saying that the London Underground was made using clay to keep the water out, which is also an amazing insulator and keeps all the heat in,

@reddit_lies I had a Polish colleague who ended up having a stand up row with a Union Rep who insisted Polish mental health care under communism was really good. He wouldn't accept her own experience and that of her family. He moved to Venezuela a few years ago Wonder how that's going for him

This is how our female politicians fool themselves into thinking they're woman-friendly. They're not.

Issilly Jones@IssillyJ

I’m at Hay, listening to a panel of smug middle class women congratulating themselves for all they’ve done for women. Harriet ‘women can have penises’ Harman has just told the fawning audience that women need to demand what they want and they’ll receive it.

@quinnnorton @jfoster2019 @raven_brah It's really not. Refrigerators were not common and freezers even less so. People had cold larders and kept milk in a glass bottle in a sink of cold water. Women shopped almost daily. I was talking to my boomer mum about it today. Born 1951.

@gomarciego @jfoster2019 @raven_brah If you include ice boxes that's going to go up by a lot. But also, isn't this more to OP's point? Going out for cheap convenience food was common, people had to eat nearly every day, even the English.

English

Raven@raven_brah·4d

Boomers seem to forget that fast food used to be a normal, everyday expense for them because it was affordable. You could get a burger easily on minimum wage, it wasn’t some fancy treat you had once a year as a reward for pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.

@Bozenka_2023 @GCWench @LegalGengar I have no shame admitting I am present on both of those threads. Liars make me incredibly angry especially when they're asking for money. And both of them with the potential to cause serious harm. Although the slop-a-long thread where people attempted Jack recipes was hilarious!

@akuareindorf @owenjonesjourno @EHRC I wonder how many trans men Owen Jones has had relationships/hook ups with? Presumably at least one since he’s gay and in his head trans men are men.

English

Akua Reindorf KC@akuareindorf·1d

I've never seen any evidence that trans-identified men face an enhanced risk of assault in men's loos. But in case they do, the @EHRC Code says that, wherever practicable, additional mixed sex options should be made available. Another option is for men to stop hitting other men

Owen Jones@owenjonesjourno

The risk of a trans woman being abused or assaulted in the men’s toilet per visit = extremely high. The risk of a woman being abused or assaulted in the women’s toilet per visit = extremely low.

@quinnnorton @jfoster2019 @raven_brah In the UK fridge ownership didn't reach 50% until the mid 1960s. They were not common in post war Britain. It took until the 80s for ownership to reach 100%

No word of a lie the new “hilarious” @netflix film Ladies First where the whole point is to lambast the patriarchy with a sex role swap in which women turn into sexist pricks has a central female character with a “non binary” child. Even worse it’s David Tennants son Wilfred now Red. Seems to have adopted his little sisters look. It’s so lame and nonsensical.
