in the women's euro tournament, england beat germany 2-1 at wembley!!!.
i'll be honest - i've never really been that interested in women's football.
no, it's not because i'm a sexist pig, it's just that i was brought up on men's football and haven't had a tv license for the past 10 years.. but this win could really put women's football on the map, at least in britain.. there has been a bit of hysteria about the nickname 'lionesses' but i think it's a great name.
what is a TV License? - In the UK, all citizens must pay a yearly fee of £159 for a TV license if they want to watch live TV programs.
That license fee sustains our state broadcaster, the BBC.
So, even if I have a TV but don't watch any BBC channels, if I just want to watch ITV or Channel Four, I still would have to pay £159 every year for the privilege.
Pretty shitty deal we got in Britain, eh?

There has been a bit of hysteria about the nickname 'Lionesses' but I think it's a great name. Lionesses do most of the hard graft in lion prides - male lions are lazy bastards in comparison.
And England's Lionesses hunted down the Germany side yesterday, no question.
July 31 2022 - the day football came home (again).
i look at tv and the media as all fiction.. i wonder if the media is now just a tool to cauterise the brain and zombify us?
i'm sure the uk's bbc does.
it seems to be a tool to brainwash people to buy into latest agenda or trend that must be followed.....or you're an outcast like a disfellowshipped one.
PS - you have a point about media bias, too.
If a person didn't know anything about Britain and watched the BBC (our national broadcaster), that person might conclude that about a third of our population was black, with another 20% gay, and that there was a nice cosy consensus that trans women are women.
None of this is true, of course - Britain is a white-majority country, approx. 3% of the population is gay, and there is currently no consensus that trans women are women.

You're probably right, Punk.
I stopped paying the TV license in Sept 2012, when I first went to uni. And I've never paid it since. I don't watch telly because a lot of it is shit - I don't even own a TV. Apart from nature programs and live sport, it's pretty much crap.
I love film, so a few years ago I bought myself a DVD player for £79. I now own about 200 movies on DVD, plus stuff like Red Dwarf, Fawlty Towers and Twin Peaks. I also own Walking With Dinosaurs, The Blue Planet and Planet Earth II ... all on DVD.
I don't miss watching telly one bit.

Hi Deeno, nice to hear from you.
With regard to the WTS, take your time about your future, what you want to do with your life. I hope you make good decisions from here on in.
PS - how can your pronouns be he and they? It's one or the other, surely...?

Good comments, Thisismein1972, from the previous page.
As I've previously stated, Lloyd isn't unintelligent.
But he seems to think his intellectual ability/potential is worth 'protecting' whenever any kind of criticism is offered. He seems to think that he needs to post different kinds of comments just to 'win' the argument.
And that's just not how discussions/arguments are supposed to work.
It seems Lloyd just doesn't 'get it'.
With proper, adult discussions, intelligent people can give different opinions, and even criticisms, so that different ideas can be batted around. It's how we, as a society, sort things out.
And Lloyd is a complete non-starter in this regard ...
the bible records resurrections and there is orher evidence besides that gives hope.
what do you think, is there enough evidence to believe in another life?.
There is no way of verifying the existence of God.
There is no way of verifying the existence of an afterlife.
I guess I'll find out about it on my deathbed.
What I do know, is that this life right now is real, so I'll concentrate on this.
"can the ethiopian change his skin?

we answer, no.
'The Ethiopian' lol
This crap is so crazy I just gotta laugh at it
'Me sad because me can't change me skin'
I don't think biological male humans are naturally monogamous.
Look at how many men cheat on their partners, or 'trade her in for a younger model'
i thought it was just me that had a negative view of people who proclaim themselves to be activists.. but no, it seems i'm not alone!.
.
To me, an activist is someone who is obsessed with one thing.
As a result of this, they often can't see the bigger picture.
E.g. Just Stop Oil activists want all of us to stop using oil now.
And we just can't do that. We can only transition from oil to more environmentally-friendly options over a period of time.
Also, I note a lot of activists are intellectually dishonest in their arguments, again because of their tendency toward monomania. Some opinions (e.g. 'trans women aren't women') simply won't be engaged with.
