Sorry Michael I don't know what the F you're talking about actually. DeSantis aint perfect and he speaks just like another politician which does grate sometimes. But in his favour, he had the most sane policies during the bug, not doing these stupid lockdowns for months on end that basically achieved nothing and destroyed countless businesses. Florida barely locked down. That immediately puts him ahead of most governors in the US, and virtually all our UK politicians, almost none of whom opposed any of that nonsense that was so damaging. Are businesses moving TO states like NY and California, or out of them to places like Florida? Where are people migrating to on net? To Florida and Texas or the mad liberal states? Sensible, rational people vote with their feet. Maybe you're a delusional left liberal that loves people like Newsom, Kamala and the rest. I'm not. Anyway, don't worry about DeSantis anyway, it's clear he's not getting anywhere near the presidency or VP if that's what would trigger you.

2023-08-22 18:35:50 +0000 UTCi remember having a lazer tag birthday party as a kid, they where like the coolest shit ever as a kid. well...I say "as a kid" as if i wouldnt be down for something like a lazer tag stag party while we're all drunk nowadays, would be pretty fun

2023-08-22 05:41:34 +0000 UTCWe're living in the times of social media brainwashing. Russia helped Trump get elected and had an influence on the Brexit vote. Plus many many more people went down the rabbit hole during the pandemic. The scary thing is a lot of people don't realise how dangerous Trump/Tucker/Musk etc are. If the GOP get in next election, the world is fucked.

2023-08-21 21:25:09 +0000 UTCI do think King Boomer would really like 'The Thick of It' or 'Yes Minister'. Both political satires which take the piss out of not just individual politicians or parties, but point out how the whole system and machinery of governance is a bit messed up. Personally I prefer The Thick of It, but I'm realising I've suggested so many shows by Armando Iannucci now that I might be suspected of being him in disguise.

2023-08-21 21:11:51 +0000 UTCNext episode is gonna be intense.

2023-08-21 20:55:32 +0000 UTCGood luck with the next episode

2023-08-21 20:53:52 +0000 UTCIt’s all a money game now a days
Chay Davenport
2023-08-21 20:39:17 +0000 UTCDon't think it's a flaw in the writing at all. I've met loads of people who claim to be moralistic but deep down they're just narcissists trying to stand out and be edgy. Likewise with Mark's character, who actually is quite morally conscious, but is just so paranoid and socially awkward that he ends up doing immoral things.
AdamMcAdamface
2023-08-21 20:36:07 +0000 UTCThat’s the reason I don’t have a relationship
Chay Davenport
2023-08-21 20:30:18 +0000 UTCI still predict this plot will twist again. I think it'll turn out Sophie was lying about the results and told Mark it was his when it was actually Jeremy's or Jeff's, because she wanted to have it with Mark out of the three. That's my prediction, will see if it plays out later on. Edit - I just typed this before KB made the same prediction - yep, I'm with you!
Oliver
2023-08-21 20:28:13 +0000 UTCYou got to remember that kids need teaching peace and love to you
Chay Davenport
2023-08-21 20:19:20 +0000 UTCI think you are reading way too far into it. He's selfish on a personal level but he's still essentially a amateur musician hippy from the late 90s mid 2000s/
Michael
2023-08-21 20:17:07 +0000 UTCYou don't think? Obviously it focuses on the farming side, but it shows a lot of what its like in the countryside.
Lawrence Peach
2023-08-21 20:16:49 +0000 UTCSorry Oliver what the fu*k are you talking about? Ron Desantis? Faculties about him? Have you lost or mind or are you just being ironic/joking
Michael

Chay Davenport
2023-08-21 20:14:41 +0000 UTCIt... really is not a good insight into what life is like in rural england.
Michael
2023-08-21 20:13:30 +0000 UTCI’m a true muppet ❤️👍
Chay Davenport
2023-08-21 20:09:45 +0000 UTCI would be so happy if you just put out OFAH, red dwarf and Peep show form here on out. All three my favourite shows lol
Dale M
2023-08-21 20:09:15 +0000 UTCBoomers, how about your own very governor, Ron DeSantis, in office? Much younger, clearly got his faculties about him. But then again they'd probably eat him alive if he went to Washington, plus who'd replace him in Florida and would it go downhill there?
Oliver
2023-08-21 20:09:09 +0000 UTCI had that boiler fr. It sucked
Chevy
2023-08-21 20:04:45 +0000 UTCuk and usa do not have democracy, its 2 wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch

2023-08-21 19:58:36 +0000 UTC65f is cold? You're talking to a lot of Brits here, and 65f is a heatwave over here!!! 🤣
Mark Jones
2023-08-21 19:26:35 +0000 UTCMost narcissists proclaim all kinds of virtues if they think it makes them look good. When ultimately they couldn’t give a flying fuck.
David Harman
2023-08-21 19:10:11 +0000 UTCThat's a good point.
ThetaSigmaTheOriginal
2023-08-21 18:58:34 +0000 UTCHe's anti war, I think because he thinks it's cool. I don't think he really thinks 😂
CONALL MCLAUGHLIN
2023-08-21 18:57:28 +0000 UTCNot all Americans, and they're not the only ones to elect questionable politicians. Sometimes, the talent pool is so shallow, like the UK at the moment. I dislike both of the two UK main parties almost equally, for much the same reason. Their policies do nothing to help people
ThetaSigmaTheOriginal
2023-08-21 18:56:43 +0000 UTCI find Jeremy's character confusing sometimes. Does anyone else? Like, he's deeply narcissistic. He generally doesn't give much thought to people suffering or struggling, etc, but he's also anti war, which people tend to be for humanistic reasons. I mean there's some objection based on fiscal reasoning, but I think that's more uncommon. Anyway, probably a flaw in the writing rather than the complex nature of Jeremy's character. But it could be something else
ThetaSigmaTheOriginal
2023-08-21 18:54:45 +0000 UTCAsh, yeah agreed. I'd say the main difference is that third parties can have an effect (we have had coalitions, something which would be unthinkable in the US), but I'm not for one minute suggesting our political system isn't anything other than completely screwed right now and for a long while.
AdamMcAdamface
2023-08-21 18:52:38 +0000 UTCAnd let's not get started on the power of lobbyists!
AdamMcAdamface
2023-08-21 18:49:09 +0000 UTC@Ash Cross Agreed. We turn our noses up at US politics, yet we keep giving our votes to a terrible Tory government or a terrible Labour government.
Jay
2023-08-21 18:48:54 +0000 UTCA lot of us (including myself) went on about how season 4 is peak peep show, that I sometimes forget how good a lot of these later episodes were!
AdamMcAdamface
2023-08-21 18:47:29 +0000 UTCGeorge Carlin summed up his thoughts on voting perfectly. If you've never seen that skit, it's well worth a watch.
Jay
2023-08-21 18:46:55 +0000 UTCActually the UK and the US have the same problem: essentially a two-party system with parties that can barely be differentiated in practice, and neither in any case seem to know what ordinary people want.
Ash X
2023-08-21 18:45:06 +0000 UTCBrit here, so reluctant to comment on US politics, but fuck it. The two-party system in the US seems to have made politics very tribal, so a lot of people will treat it like a sports team, you pick your side and stick with them no matter what. All of the Americans I’ve met (and probably a majority of Americans) are sick of this but are faced with the depressing options of voting for the person they dislike the least, voting for a third party who are never going to have any real influence, or not voting at all. (Yeah we have a similar problem in the UK with the first past the post system, but not quite as bad).
AdamMcAdamface
2023-08-21 18:43:49 +0000 UTC65°f.... That's off to the beach weather here in Ireland. And I'm not even joking
CONALL MCLAUGHLIN
2023-08-21 18:35:07 +0000 UTCBecause both parties give us shit choices.
Brian Moran
2023-08-21 18:08:35 +0000 UTCWhy do Americans vote for such fucking stupid idiots and arseholes??? I gotta know. The World's gotta know.

2023-08-21 17:36:41 +0000 UTCI watched this last week I couldn't wait for your reaction to this episode 😅😅.

2023-08-21 17:25:30 +0000 UTCCheck out Clarkson Farm, you would both love it, a very good insight into what life is like in rural England
Lawrence Peach
2023-08-21 17:08:38 +0000 UTCAppreciating the desire to avoid politics, but definitely feeling a hearty Fuck You, Bush. You opened up the hell gates.
