The Scottish Hebrides have changed hands between Celtic, Norse, and later Scots ownership multiple times. The area has a smorgasbord of cultural influences.

Skellige is similar, it’s Celtic with a huge slathering of Nordic, but still ultimately Celtic at the end of the day.

That is a very recent change, his stance until just a few weeks ago has been very pro-Israel. Even now, his stance is the weakest form of condemnation possible, from an ex human rights lawyer, for what is an atrocity on par with the likes of the holocaust and holodomor.

So literally nothing that the English and Welsh didn’t also do. We were all bastards.

Olap’s mention of Starmer being a colonialist is because he is outright denying the chance of a democratic process, regardless of what the Scottish electorate desire, like a colonialist would do. Not to mention his support for Israel, a true modern colonial power.

Maybe think next time before you go running to defend an antidemocratic genocide supporter and keep your bigotry to yourself.

Scotch is a bold word to use when trying to take the moral high ground, you xenophobe.

Can you provide a source for your claim of being the most vigorously committed members or are you just talking out your arse?

The first English overseas expansion occurred as early as 1169, when the Norman invasion of Ireland began to establish English possessions in Ireland, with thousands of English and Welsh settlers arriving in Ireland.[3] As a result of this the Lordship of Ireland was claimed for centuries by the English monarch

Scotland’s colonialism began in the 1600s, quite a bit later than the 1100s…

Aye, but also Celtic because of Nordic influence.

If you click this link and scroll down to the gallery you can see what are essentially Viking longships but in a Celtic nation.

Celtic and Nordic cultures have a lot of similarities because of geographic proximity but they’re also distinctly their own.

Skellige is celtic, not nordic. Think Ireland/Scotland rather than Norway/Sweden.

I was taught if you see a hazard click as soon as you see it, then click again two more times. The reason being that these things are programmed by humans and when the programmer deems the hazard to be a hazard and when you deem the hazard to be a hazard may be slightly differently timed. Bit of a shit system really but I don’t really know how they could test it differently without a similar issue of tester and testee having different reaction times.

No she isn’t, she’s launching a propaganda tool and/or a scam. Don’t give her free advertising. Ignore it and move on.

FYI it can take up to 3 years to bring enough nutrients and biodiversity to a patch of land to get really decent harvests, so if you haven’t started already now is the time to. Good luck, and may your potato harvests be bountiful!

The Greens or Lib Dems

And that right there is an issue. Because now the left will be split again amongst multiple parties instead of 1 with a chance of winning anything. We’re doomed to repeat the same dumb mistakes and hand power to the Tories or Reform all over again.

The Lib Dems have shown themselves to be ineffectual and Labour are not left wing.

The Greens aren’t perfect but if there’s to be any chance at a left wing government any time soon we (as in, anyone on the left) need to wake up and realise that the only way that is possible, is by all supporting one party instead of multiple. One party that supports proportional representation and can effect genuine positive change to our voting system, so that in future we don’t have to hold our noses, play games, and vote for a party that isn’t necessarily our perfect choice.

I started quoting relevant parts but there’s so many different ways they get rid of waste that it got silly.

In a nutshell (lol): sap, leaves, petals, fruit, dead wood inside the tree, and root excretions are all kind of tree poop in their own ways.

They’ve always existed in some way or another though.

Which pub you went to, which newspaper you read, which TV channel you watched, they all created echo chambers and bubbles in the past.

At least with the Fediverse we’re more likely to break out of it due to various instances showing up in our feeds. Various viewpoints being visible. The Fediverse is still in it’s early days so it’s still a bit monoculture with the likes of Linux and anti-capitalism but that’s changing now. We’re seeing more and more different takes on different topics as time goes by.

Which is?

Hoarding living accommodation for the purpose of profit.

Landlording for an office or shop could perhaps be justified to be for-profit but housing is a human requirement and hoarding it for-profit is unethical. All landlords are bastards, unless by some unlikely chance they’re running their business as a nonprofit.

Yes, landlords do the things they do because of capitalism. Their existence is due to capitalism. But that doesn’t mean they’re not to blame. They choose to be landlords.

Your anecdotal experience of nice landlords doesn’t cover the fact that landlords, traditionally, have been bastards to their tenants. There’s a reason many countries have had to implement laws like third party deposit schemes and standards for things like smoke alarms, heating systems, etc in rented accommodation.

Landlords are bastards because of capitalism but that doesn’t wash away the fact that landlords are bastards.

Charity shops. Fuck feeding fast fashion, poverty wages, and low quality materials for profit.

If the clothes have survived someone else’s use and are still in good enough state that a) they were donated instead of binned and b) they were put out for sale instead of binned, then that implies the quality is good enough to last me a couple years as well.

I know my money is going to charity instead of some fashion CEO who will use it to exploit people as much as possible.

And, I’m reusing or recycling clothes instead of them having to be manufactured from new, thus reducing my carbon footprint.

Apart from no guarantee of what you’ll be able to find, so finding something specific can be difficult, there’s really no downsides. Although depending on your perspective this can also be an upside as it makes shopping less predictable, more spontaneous and thus more fun.

There’s hundreds of charity shops to choose from as well, all with varying causes, layouts, quality, products, etc. Give it a go, make shopping fun again!

Y’all need to sort out your country if this is deemed a luxury in America. Richest nation on the planet, my arse!
