  Slightly tangential, but something that really pisses me off is how we had something like this system for elections for mayors and some other local positions.

  The Supplementary Vote was used for all combined authority mayoral elections until the Elections Act 2022 abolished it. It was basically the Alternative Vote (Instant Runoff/Ranked Choice Voting) but limited to two choices: the top two candidates who received the most preferences would advance to a runoff which used the second choices. It’s similar to the French system but it’s all done on the same ballot instead over two separate votes.

  The Tories had it in their manifesto to replace it with FPTP, and they did that through the EA2022. I knew they weren’t on board with changing parliamentary elections to a better system, but getting rid of (marginally better) established systems says a lot to me about what they think about democracy.

  Oh okay, fair enough. Out of interest, what does Jagex have against the Brits?

  I tried to follow that link and it seems Cloudflare blocked me. Don’t suppose you know who I’d need to talk to to resolve that would you?

  I turn 29 in a few months and scored 2. I would not be surprised if I’ve forgotten an instance of using a typewriter or listening to a boombox outside though.

  The article seems to say that it’s not a bill that goes through Parliament, more that it’s akin to secondary legislation, which can’t be subject to a petition? Meaning that the Swiss people would need to petition for a constitutional amendment rather than an optional referendum, which makes this slightly more complicated (and requires a lot more effort)

  In my experience, people who like cock and balls generally like looking at cock and balls in porn, if only for help fantasising about playing with said cock and balls. Dressing them up makes them less sexual and more humourous, which someone might be into in the same way as playing “got your nose” with your arse cheeks. Though it’s only funny for a split second when you’re not expecting it, then you actually have to remove the costume in order to access the cock and balls.

  I think it’s because most of those folks don’t want to see other people’s Johnsons.

  I mean… Men who like men exist, though I say that as a pan-guy that doesn’t really seek out penis. Not repulsed, they just seem boring. Seeing them dressed up is actually funny and interesting until I get bored
