Yep, reading facts gets in the way of good old fashioned jingoism!

I first saw these advertised when I was at primary school in the late 80s early 90s I think- the branded ones were called “Scatch” i believe.

It was my son’s tenth birthday yesterday and he came back from school saying that he had got the best birthday present ever- a new friend! Made my heart smile, especially as we moved areas a couple of years ago and he found it really tough moving school at first as he was so shy. He has a good group of mates though now and I am really proud of him for noticing that the new boy was by himself, and going over to talk to him.

Neither my wife nor my children would be here without the NHS as my wife would have died in labour with our first child. The NHS is one of the greatest things we have ever built, and it needs both a lot more investment as well as being run by qualified medical personnel and not used by every government as a political football.

I’ve not heard that one before! What an odd reason for choosing an iPhone!

I’m loving it too- I miss a lot of subreddits and the sheer volume of content from the other site, but it feels quite special here at the moment. Also I am loving how quickly Lemmy and all of the supporting apps are developing! I am using Mlem and am very impressed. I want to like wefwef and agree that it is very similar to Apollo, but I just can’t cope with web apps.

This is deeply troubling.
