Was at the parade yesterday and on comes the local pride contingent. Not really doing anything just waving and shit not even dressed up and of course the crowd clapped and cheered and "well done lads" etc.

My thought was have we not moved on from cheering the subtle nuances of people's sexuality, has this not become acceptable ages ago, we're all fine with it fair play for their self acceptance etc?

I just think a bit more panache to earn the applause rather than simply existing might be in order is all. I mean the same applies to the local dance academies and what have you but at least they're providing some entertainment. The special needs crowd put on a great show even with all they have going against them, you could see the effort etched into their pained expressions and they were well worthy of the bit of adulation. Y'know it's not just limited to the pride lads either, there's a lot at the parades could do more to get the crowd going. There was a few army lads who did a bit of peacekeeping in Lebanon who did fuck all as well only waving but they did have uniforms on at least I suppose and they looked about 90 but then why am I letting them off the hook either they could have told a few war stories over a megaphone or something.

The standard has gone to shit basically and in future I'm going to be fuckin calling them all out if they don't put more effort in. Same for the prick who only had a few sheep on a trailer and a Ukraine flag

Yeah, the spiked ugg wearing gobshites...

Christ, that Guardian article. Would it'd have been better if yer wan had slapped him? Reading through that would redden the cheeks of anyone but the most fanatical wokists.

Not really on to make a joke about someone's medical condition while they're present. I mean, it's not like she's got no hair because of chemotherapy, but it's in that direction all the same. All the same, they're billionaires so I'm mainly enjoying the drama of it all; feels like the 90s again! haha

feels like the 90s again! haha

Can't go wrong with that

Total nonsense. Who cares or trusts what actors do?

I tried to get into it a little but just couldn't muster up a single fuck to give about either of them, any of it or the Oscars at all.

I had assumed it was a stunt but after watching the footage there's no question it was a real attack. Smith really burst him and was outraged afterwards  (and subsequently blubbing when he realised he might be kicked out of the academy). It's a storm in a tea cup, no question, but I don't think it was staged.
