Stive Pesley

Absolutely - the first wedding our youngest went to was two of our lesbian friends. He was 5 and never even questioned it. He's grown up understanding love for what it is
It's a shame that there is still an older generation who see any depictions of true love in popular culture story telling as "forcing an agenda" and not "accurately representing the world around us"
 
 

We have been watching the dubbed version purely because my wife can’t see the subtitles without her glasses and refuses to go downstairs to get them…so I was reading It out to her…that gets old really quickly.! 
I agree you don’t get the real “emotion” of It all without the original language on It. You aren’t really judging the acting you are just judging the people responsible for the dubbed version. 
Interesting story, I once met the guy who was the Arnold Schwarzeneggers Italian dub person…they use the same people all the time for different actors….

Out of interest - are you watching the dubbed version? 
We're watching the original Korean with subtitles, and I don't think you can judge the acting - it all feels pretty natural to me
 

Well surprise surprise, the report on how the country dealt with the pandemic is published. The first thing the government do is throw the scientists under the bus as they attempt to distance themselves of any blame.
And where's the leader of these cowards, the person that went missing at the start of this national disaster? Hiding in Spain, so no change there

For god sake don’t let them see the CW arrow verse. 
supergirl’s sister is a lesbian, dream is a transexual, ray and captain cold are gay, lex Luther is bald.
me and my daughter have been watching super girl and flash from the start, and yes, it can seem a bit ott to an old fart like me with how blatantly they’re trying to be inclusive, but actually, my daughter loves it, and is seeing all sorts of positive representations of different types of people. So whereas my generation still remember that first lesbian kiss on brookside with Anna friel like it was a massive tele event. My daughter just finds that kind of thing totally normal, as she should. 
I’ve been getting her into buffy the vampire slayer now it’s on Disney plus. Used to live that in the 90s. Willow’s about to come out. I always remember that being a big deal back in the day. My daughter won’t bat an eye lid. It’s actually been pretty obvious for a while when you rewatch it. 

This isn't the Brexit I voted for!

I always thought superboy and robin would make a nice couple. 

I always suspected.
The far right are going to implode.

Ridiculous. 

one of the great films of a generation.

I once ran a multi-millionaire bound business, but Max Mosley's death and Tories starting to prefer the opposite sex killed it off.

I think this sums it up
I suspect none of us have ever run a multi-million bound business, and especially not a football club where the stakes are so high, but fundamentally, whatever business you are in, you have to have a business plan, and it's totally reasonable for that business plan to be based on projected income over the next x years
The pandemic suddenly choked off the income stream for all clubs - and none of them could have foreseen it, hence the EFL offering the contingency loans to help clubs through it
The problem seems to be that Derby was a special case, as the owner was midway through trying to engineer a sale of the club, via various strategies (sale of stadium, MSD loans etc) - then with the EFL charges on top - covid threw the business plan out the window, and somehow we found ourselves unable to access the same contingency as everyone else. 
In the end we may just have to chalk that one up as bad luck
 
 
 

This.  I've had flu twice in my lifetime, the last time probably 20 years ago now.  Both times I was laid up for nearly 2 weeks, with the first week being bed-ridden, horrible fevers, vomiting if I tried to eat, absolutely zero energy.  I get really peed off if someone alludes to having the flu but "I'll probably be in tomorrow...".  You've got a cold to dozy berk.  I now have the flu jab annually as, being over 50 and knowing how ill I've been with flu, I know how serious it can be.  And for this reason too, I had zero hesitation getting the jabs for COVID 19.

You're on a Derby forum in 2021 claiming there are no bad accountants. 

There is also the thrill factor of not knowing if you're going to get paid at the end of your shift!
 

Finishing off, as it were, in bubbles. 

Further to 'that' BBC article posted a few days ago I stumbled across this video that clears up the bias in it far better than I could have ever hoped to do. 
The second part of the video goes on to talk about Ivermectin, related studies and Merck's bizarre refusal to conduct high quality clinical trials with the Nobel Prize winning discoverer of Ivermectin to assess any benefits in relation to covid.
30 mins long, well worth your time.
 

I presume you have a chemical addiction to not getting vaccinated then. 

All these studies say that ivermectin should not be used for treatment of covid-19 outside of a clinical trial. 
The BBC article is about people who are using ivermectin bought through unorthodox means, such as vetinarians, to do exactly what the studies tell us not to do. 
I don't think anyone is saying that trials of this drug aren't welcomed, they're pointing out the lunacy of self medicating using a horse dewormer against medical advice. 
There is a correlation between people who do not trust the vaccine and people willing to trust untrialled untested medicines. 

Because the article is about the use of Ivermectin in treating covid - where it is relevant to "link flawed studies with anti-vaxxers, livestock Ivermectin and anecdotal evidence..."
Of what relevance is it to know you can use it for head lice treatment?! Deliberate fogging of a narrative? 

Looks like Pauline Latham MP has actually written a letter to the Culture Secretary and requested a meeting with the EFL

 
 

With respect Max - in this instance, you have brought this on yourself by taking issue with a BBC news article based on it not saying what you think it should say, claiming that this is somehow a politicising of the issue. When challenged you've repeatedly been unable to explain what is political about the article. To me, and it seems everyone else it's just a reportage article about how false information on this drug has resulted in *some* people taking it recklessly. I see no mention of politics - only you repeatedly bringing it up, and refusing to let it drop

There are still ongoing studies though - which have yet to offer any conclusions, so in the meantime - if you don't mention that, then somehow you're as good as injecting horse de-wormer into a mentally ill person's eyeballs...apparently ?
Because "politics"?!
