CW transphobia 

A vile and deceptive transphobic ad that ran in London's free commuter newspaper Metro has been referred to the UK's Advertising Standards Authority. Here is a link to the ad and another to the website where you can submit a complaint.

HUGE CW transphobia, genitals, sexual assault, and abuse, obviously. No-one should've had to see this ad and neither do you.

@loki
Yeah I saw like... Part of the first episode and was just... "Christ okay this is just terrible... This is all just right wing wankery... Do they really think this is funny???"

@Sir_Boops
(Worse still, if it couldn't print because of a cartridge malfunction, it wouldn't do ANYTHING. you couldn't even use it as a scanner!!)

@Sir_Boops
I had an all in one printer that was like this, because it only had cmy cartridges... It literally made "black" by mixing all three.

It was garbage.

@Sir_Boops
This is missing the best bit

The response of "I just spat out my coffee"
Followed by

"Sorry about your *picture of Coffeemate brand non-dairy whitener* "

goldilocks and the three bears but the porridge is the three different sizes of earbud tips you get with a new set of earphones, also none of them are just right

@SilviaFox@sleeping.town ah! it's okay. I don't remember the post either. ^^;

this got slightly political for the sake of a joke sorry 

@Ronflaix @Siphonay@octodon.social (the real joke is the alt-right numbnuts we laughed at along the way)

@Ronflaix @Siphonay@octodon.social v. disappointed that when i typed "jordan peterson and milo y are very fine people" into the sample box it didn't just turn every single word apart from "and" and "very" into the bullshit censors 0/10 would not download.

@soft_chomps@glitch.social *snaps to attention and salutes, begins sof petting immediately*

@tom @Ronflaix Oh shit, that's... wow that's kinda cool. Though I suspect for my own readability when I'm coding (if I'm coding) I'll not want the ligatures so I know what I've typed ^^;; At least until I get good enough that I just... know. Y'know?
