That’s why I selected just those lines. It was an attempt at irony.

Well, Ukraine is probably also attacking Russia with Russian arms too, so perhaps Putin should nuke Russia too.

Sorry, Vlad. Can’t hear you over the rattling of that sabre.

Heaven has no rage like love to hatred turned, nor hell a fury like a woman scorned.

“Scorned” in this context is equivalent to our contemporary “betrayed”.

She’s been passed over for reward by Trump.

Oddly specific.

Obviously the plural of foot is feet, so the plural of book should be beek.

Or one sheep should be a shoop.

There’s also the English Vowel Shift. Which means words either side of it are inconsistent.

Perhaps China’s Final Warning was significant this time. Who’d have thought?

I was thinking of Zelenskyy too. No other country’s election news makes it to my eyes, so there’s an inherent bias in what I have ‘in mind’.

I find paying for green waste collection a little on the nose: it’s valuable raw material. Especially when you’re buying it back again as compost!

Our garden has been contaminated with weeds from other lawns etc. from mowing and DIY compost it’s kind of annoying/disappointing.

“it’s ok because other people do it” is not a good argument.

Also, the scale of any activity subject to that excuse is relevant. Many electorates occasionally act weird, some electorates are notorious for the same acts.

The latter, but like all good things some toxicity leaks in from the fringes.

I suspect, obviously without evidence, that the complainants probably also complain about having to mow “the council’s berms” too, without a shred of irony :-)

but it’s not exactly well known and it’s a bit of a dick move for the council to chance their stance and not tell anyone, just double the fine then start handing out fines.

Agree whole heartedly. If it were purely about compliance then education is the first and principal step. That’s it’s essentially been stealthed in makes it look like a revenue grab (which admittedly the council is in dire need of).

… And the other 55%? The majority?

And you’re taking a national ratio which is meaningless with a system like the electoral college.

It’s still weird how some atheists think that only blithering idiots exist in religions.

Look! We found one!

This is a good place to start, it links off to some other articles with more info too.

Hurting people is the reason.

That’s the whole schtick with faith: it’s belief without evidence, by definition.

Anyone prepared to have faith in anything is ripe for exploitation, by anyone.

Churchies self-select for exploitation.

Accidentally right is still right!
