    Can't get much lower than this. Beating up a 92 year old widow in her own home and then claiming she was not brought up to know right from wrong. There cannot possibly be any mitigating circumstances when it come to offences like this and one wonders what must occur for the maximum penalty to be imposed.

    The robbery near Kawakawa in 2019 left the victim in hospital and shocked the nation.

    Whatever the punishment is, it should include a KFC ban.

    I've assumed this isn't real and is a piss-take of extreme quality. If not we are buggered.

    Bristol University pronoun guide for staff includes 'catgender' | Bristol Live

    Bristol University pronoun guide for staff includes 'catgender' | Bristol Live

    It also linked to guidance about 'emojiself' pronouns

    "Staff members at the University of Bristol have been given guidance on gender identity and neopronouns, including 'catgender'.

    The institution says in its 'using pronouns at work' document that staff should declare their own pronouns when meeting students and new people for the first time, encouraging staff to put their own preferred pronouns in their email signatures to support trans and non-binary students and normalise the practice for all.

    Its guidance also links to a web page that says that some people may identify as felines and others could use 'emojiself pronouns'"

    From the link...

    "Nounself pronouns are type of neopronoun that are derived from an existing word. They are commonly, but not always, used by xenic individuals who may want to use a pronoun set that corresponds with their xenogender, or some other aspect of themself. For example, someone who is catgender may use nya/nyan pronouns".

    @antipodean so I have my performance review next month. Does this mean instead of answering all the grading questions I just need to show a supermarket receipt for wholemeal?

    @dogmeat You should tell them that you're so underpaid you can't afford to toast it. Then challenge the privilege of the person interviewing you. Wear lipstick, that will throw them right off balance.

    @dogmeat That would work. Still go for the lipstick as well though.

    Edit: This look...
