I’m not I’m afraid. It’s been saved on my phone for a good while now!

It’s not my house, I’m not insane! 😅

You have a wonderful way with words!

I’m going to need more details @Emperor… a LOT more details.

And then you were like 🤬😵🪦?

I believe there’s a tiny bracket (? Idk what you’d call it) behind the fake tulip between the leaves. If that’s not a bracket/catch/support I think it’s a scuff mark, as if the drawbridge is ever so slightly too big for the gap and you have to slam it down with your foot.

I could be talking out my arse of course but even so, it seems a fitting explanation in every respect!

No problem, sorry I didn’t make it clearer the first time. Like you said, it’s not the easiest example to (tenuously) explain!

I fucking love it! I thought my ultimate 70s boudoir had won the community, but this is way funnier!!

Edit: wtf is that in the corner underneath him?!

Like I said, it’s not the best example but it’s also not the worst one of these I’ve heard, they can get really really obscure. Maybe this is a better explanation/translation:

“If paedophilla is as innocent as a “sexual orientation”, then burying your dead body in my garden is as innocent as “gardening.”

Have you ever had an IQ test or similar? You sometimes get questions like “A car is to transport, what a fork is to ___” with the answer being “cutlery”. It’s not that transport/cutlery or cars/forks have anything in common, it’s about their relationship to the group.

So in the post it’s saying that “if you think paedophilla is just a type of sexuality, then murdering someone and burying their body is just a type of gardening”. It’s not exactly a flawless comparison, but that’s what they were going for.

Being able to drive is such a huge deal. I really glad he’s doing ok now.

Are you talking about in the UK? I disagree. I just don’t see that happening because there won’t be anything to protest. I don’t think we’ll go back into lockdown again no matter how bad it gets. At most they‘ll recommend wearing masks again, tell the vulnerable to shield, put capacity limits on indoor venues, and restrict visits to hospitals and care homes. Very worse case scenario they might urge people to WFH/stay at home and maybe reintroduce bubbles at schools.

I can believe it of American because antivaxx views correlate with political views and the US is so divided politically that it almost doesn’t matter what it’s about, people will argue over it. But without that aspect to it in the UK there just isn’t anything to protest.
