@79SemiFinalist Shitty thing to do to an author
I assume a new 1 who felt they had no choice
If they 'have to' at least dont taint the text with it, put it at the start/end because this actually reads worse - it sounds ridiculous & fake which kills any benefit gained from being in the text!

@MikeGra69743103 @79SemiFinalist Well, yeah, obviously, thats the problem 🤣
English

@79SemiFinalist Maybe the author or publisher gets paid for the ad placement?

@fifi_august @DannyDeVito @grok To those whinging-
Maybe she cant listen to audio or watch a video right now- in a meeting, broken phone, no headphones etc?
She may be deaf?
It may be to turn the msg into text to send to someone or just save info?
There may even be other reasons!🤯
Get a grip of your griping!

@DannyDeVito @grok, summarise what he’s trying to say please

@johnnyddavidson Im especially enjoying the ones that desperately try to twist & spin it & claim that they knew all along & were just making some really obscure & extremely subtle joke. 🤣🤡

@johnnyddavidson
Has a single one of them actually apologised when they realised?
English

@johnnyddavidson Im stunned that only about 4 people on this whole thread realised this comment was a piss take.
How can ppl still be so bad at spotting it when its so blatant?

@KingBobIIV @AjaTheEmpress Youre just proving you dont actually understand what the term means
Doesnt mean all wp have easy lives, it means their lives have never been made harder by the colour of their skin
Its only about the privileges wp have over bp in society
Its nothing to do with wealth or status

The funniest bit is 2 black millionaires who have been within the circles of abusers P.diddy, and various rappers and actors that endlessly use that word in song and film, declaring John, a disabled caretaker of a community centre in one of the poorest towns in Europe, has "white privilege".

Tell you what, go and explain "white privilege" to the hundreds of thousands of white little girls, as young as 7, that have been dragged off the streets, raped by dogs, had broken bottles shoved inside them, been raped, tortured and gangraped by hoards of Muslim men, and couldn't go to the police because they'd infiltrated the police, judicary and councils so that everyone from care homes to social services were so worried about offending non white people, they allowed these little girls to be taped by hundreds of men before their 16th birthday.
Go and have a chat with them about their "white privilege".

Hell Lane, also known as Shute’s Lane, at Symondsbury in Dorset 🇬🇧 is one of the deepest and best-preserved holloways in Britain, with its sandstone walls cut down to nearly 9 metres below the surrounding fields in places.
The word holloway comes from Old English and simply means a sunken road, formed where a route has been used so heavily for so long that it is gradually worn down into the ground.
The origins of this route almost certainly go back to prehistory. Tracks in this part of Dorset were already in use by the Bronze Age, and later by the Iron Age Durotriges, the Celtic tribe that occupied much of what is now Dorset, southern Somerset, Devon and parts of Wiltshire before the Roman conquest. As was common across Britain, newer roads and tracks followed the lines of older ones, so a prehistoric route could easily become a medieval and later highway.
Over centuries the surface was cut deeper by the passage of feet, hooves and cart wheels, combined with rainwater washing loose material away. This process would have accelerated in the Middle Ages, particularly after the building of Symondsbury church in the 14th century. The nearby name Quarry Hill points to where the building stone was taken from, and that stone would have been hauled along this very lane, grinding it ever further down into the bedrock.
Just a short distance away lies Bridport Harbour, now West Bay, which was a long-established port for fishing and trade. Goods from the coast would have been taken inland along routes like this, linking harbour, village and hinterland.
The walls of Hell Lane are covered in centuries of scratched names and symbols, a long-running tradition of marking the place that stretches from early travellers to modern visitors. The graffiti forms a kind of informal record of the many people who have passed through this narrow cutting.
Dorset’s coastline was also a centre of smuggling in the 17th and 18th centuries, and figures such as Isaac Gulliver made their fortunes running contraband from secluded beaches to inland markets. Sunken lanes like Hell Lane, hidden from view and difficult to patrol, were ideal for moving goods such as gin, tea, silk and lace away from the coast without attracting attention.
Today, the lane feels almost like a trench cut through time, preserving thousands of years of movement, trade and daily life in its walls and floor.

@MbarkCherguia Id say its just a thing ppl in their area do when they graduate, its just a happy dance.
Why start the racism & sexism over it?
No doubt the boys do it too.
Its especially good if theyve just got degrees rather than high school.
Education frees women & some men cant stand it :D
