The story about "Carl Twinly" is a work of fiction. However, the mugshot shown above is real. It was taken in 2008 and shows a woman who was arrested in Middleton, Ohio. According to Fox 19, she had been hired to dress up as a cow to promote a local haunted trail. She was arrested on suspicion of disorderly conduct after she allegedly got drunk, chased some children, and interrupted traffic.

Fox 19 reported: "A Middletown woman is behind bars, charged with disorderly conduct after she was arrested while wearing a cow suit ... Police say Michelle Allen was getting in the way of traffic and chasing children while wearing her cow suit. She's also accused of urinating on a neighbor's front porch."

I feel like we are in agreement

whilst I agree that pronouns are hurting nobody, don't actually alienate the people who would vote for your rights by hitting them with overcorrection.

People are slow and dumb, and sometimes it takes baby steps to come over to your side.

Blasting them at every footfall is a recipe for disaster

I can say the alphabet backwards, really fast. I also know all the digits of pi in ascending order

uh. what is that?

I saw a red-beaked crow the other day, super rare. A Cornish Chough theyre called.

(I have no photos of my own but they look like these majestic bastards:)

no german will admit this, but their cheese is terrible and so they invented quark to make it more terrible, but when that didn't solve their problems they snuck into the UK to steal ours.

of course we secretly stole their excellent bread in WW2, but hyped up the french bread due to the war effort. Then the swiss came along and stole everyone's lunch in broad daylight. Even now, you could walk into the shittiest (and yet somehow cleanest) airport or train station in Switzerland, buy the cheapest (20€) baguette possible, and it will taste like the heavens have melted in your mouth.

Smug bastards. They even copied our triangle bread and made it good.

Little do they know though that we've been biding our time, carefully and quietly developing a secret weapon - a kebab so potent that it will blow the socks off anyone who touches it from grease fallout alone - that the UK will once again reign supreme in the upcoming sandwich wars.

Let me tell you how my mum's brain works:

• Me: "So how was your day?"

• Mum: "We had a session with Sasha and the report she mentioned to Jenny my boss, cos the whole department was axed, as you remember the last election, and maybe you should start looking for a job around there, and so the report came back empty and...."

• Me (used to her tangents), a report was made between her and Sasha, given to Jenny the boss, but the report was ignored and sent back, most likely due to lack of personell because the department was axed by the Tories in the last election, and she fears it might happen to me too and that I should look for a job in that potential vacuum.

Those animals under the extreme pressure of their surroundings, mutated into a chimera and pooped everywhere

Among those revealed to have benefited from slavery are ancestors of the Prime Minister, David Cameron, former minister Douglas Hogg, authors Graham Greene and George Orwell, poet Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and the new chairman of the Arts Council, Peter Bazalgette. Other prominent names which feature in the records include scions of one of the nation's oldest banking families, the Barings, and the second Earl of Harewood, Henry Lascelles, an ancestor of the Queen's cousin. Some families used the money to invest in the railways and other aspects of the industrial revolution; others bought or maintained their country houses, and some used the money for philanthropy. George Orwell's great-grandfather, Charles Blair, received £4,442, equal to £3m today, for the 218 slaves he owned.

Cameron and Orwell doesn't surprise me. I am surprised by a lack of other conservative politicians.

At least he's not Corbyn who WOULDNT PRESS THE NUKE BUTTON! PRESS IT, JEREMY! PRESS IT!

The state of this country.

Guys cmon, look at this whole thread and have some self-awareness.

We've all got aspects of reddits worse qualities in our niche topics of interest, and the tribalism here isn't that much of an upgrade from the reddit hive mind.

We have no right or authority to gatekeep people joining, all we can do is give them the option and shove them from instance to instance until they finally settle on an echo chamber suittable to our/their weird tastes.
