https://x.com/metrouk/status/1808108462699655376?s=46&t=6A6DEoWLBXRoU3VqFunjKg this tweet has started to get quite a bit of attention so i guess it will be everywhere soon ! most people are defending him which is nice

I feel quite bad. This could be the biggest year of his career and he literally blew it.

I'm sure it'll be fine, he's a young guy at a festival but it's such a stupid move. I don't know him and I'm angry at him. Anyone who knows me will know I'm not one to judge this but not so in public!

[ID 1: a screenshot of a tweet from @MetroUK that says "the Met Office warns the UK will be double-fisted by deadly snow and ice" with a link to an article from metro.co.uk with the headline "tens of thousands could of drivers could be left stranded tomorrow".

ID 2: a reply tweet from @metoffice that says "needless to say, this isn't the term we'd use to describe the weather". end ID]

the Met Office is currently trending because apparently the Metro decided this was how they were going to report on the weather

More Than 200 Smartphones SNATCHED in The UK DAILY

It appears that crime in the UK has sharply increased. It is estimated that over 200 smartphones are snatched from their owners daily. There is an alleged claim that these stolen phones are then sent to China for them to be re-sold.  More than 200 smartphones snatched in the UK daily  @metrouk New figures show that more than 200 smartphones are ‘snatched’ every day across the UK, with a mobile…

That Left/Right networking is just going full swing. This video is by someone who is supposedly upset about the MetroUK article and who even knows if the person who wrote it was real and not AI because they sure disappeared quick. The fact is, this person makes good points, while at the same time, poo pooing Diversity itself. How? By asking that White characters stop being changed into black or brown ones; to leave 'European' characters alone. That's pretty darn rich, when every day and every year, the public is finding out about another historical figure that was whitewashed. Our history and especially European history is full of real life, compelling characters that were whitewashed.

Case in point: The Lone Ranger. Why don't we see him, anymore? Because it became known that he was based on a real life man, named Bass Reeves.

Do we get a movie about his life? A serious, gripping, good old fashioned Western, that highlights his remarkable tale? No. Ever since Bass Reeves became known, he's been used by a nefarious group, to hide behind. The Harder They Fall, David Oyelowo at Paramount and on Around The World In Eighty Days which I actually enjoyed very much. I just know the people 'handling' David Tennant are very bad. People deserve to know the true history, and these games that the Rightwing and the Regressive DEI set are playing, is all but guaranteed to actually damage diversity in films. They're trying to make people sick of it. But then again, White Supremacy is a real disease.

Two more reasons I know the chick and the article is fake:

1 The YouTuber claims ignorance about the show, then later gushes about the actor who played Jack Harkness...who will never be on the show again, as he was outed as a predator.

2 They felt the need to add unknown and perennial loser, Sophie Hunter, to this video.

They're fucking with the public, HARD; both the Left and Right, in tandem.

Who the hell wrote this and how did they ever get their journalism degree?

Yes, Joe defended Grace from haters. Yes, Grace's experience was awful.

But they are literally not connected?

Why can't Grace's story be highlighted by herself? Why does she need Joe to be connected to this story?

It's honestly insulting because it's showing how a woman can never be heard without being linked to a man.

It's her story. Not Joe's. Not Stranger Things related.

Grace's own story.

I'm starting to hate journalists lol

This beloved ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’ character is now officially queer

A comic book spin-off of Buffy the Vampire Slayer may have confirmed that a major character from the influential TV series is queer. In the 11th issue of The Vampire Slayer, Sarah Gailey and Hannah Templer’s comic series based on characters from the Joss Whedon show, vampire hunter Faith Lehane describes Willow, a magic-using bisexual character, as “wicked hot.” Related Stories The bisexual kissing scene in “Cruel Intentions” made singer Demi Lovato realize her queerness “I was just like ‘Oh wait a minute — I really like that, I wanna try it,’” Lovato said of the steamy kissing scene. In the latest issue, Faith confronts an out-of-control Willow, but Faith has trouble focusing due to her own attraction to the new “dark, scary version” of Willow. Throughout the TV and comic book series, Willow has had trouble controlling her addiction to magic, occasionally becoming an evil version of herself whenever beset by emotional hardship. Despite Faith’s seemingly small comment in the recent comic, it seems to confirm what fans of the series have long suspected of Faith, who was played on TV by Eliza Dushku. Her character was first introduced during Buffy’s third season, and throughout the show’s run, she only had sexual and romantic relationships with cis men. However, as PinkNews notes, Faith’s fluid sexuality was hinted at on the show, which initially aired on The WB and later UPN from 1997 to 2003. While Faith never explicitly expressed interest in women on the show, ScreenRant notes that fans picked up on sexual tension between the character and Sarah Michelle Geller’s Buffy. That undercurrent gave rise to fan theories from viewers eager to see broader queer representation on TV. The original Buffy TV series was, of course, groundbreaking for including an out queer character, Willow played by Alyson Hannigan. But the TV show seems to have shied away from more complicated and diverse depictions of sexuality. Series creator Whedon admitted in 2020 that he’d intended Willow to be bisexual, but was discouraged by network execs. “It was like, ‘OK, you can’t make Willow bi, you can’t say this is a phase because that’s what people do to deny [LGBTQ+ people] their existence,’” Whedon told MetroUK. “So if I did it now, I’d be like, ‘Yes, she can be bi.’” Despite the executives’ disapproval, early into the TV series, Willow dated a werewolf named Daniel “Oz” Osbourne. Oz, played by comedian Seth Green, appeared in the series until its 4th season. After dating Oz, Willow dated Tara, a fellow witch who introduces Willow to magic. When Willow and Tara suddenly part in the show’s 6th season, Willow turns to “Dark Willow” and threatens to destroy the world over her intense emotional pain. The Vampire Slayer, which launched its first issue in April 2022, has already re-envisioned the character Xander (played on the TV show by Nicholas Brendon) as queer. http://dlvr.it/Sk6MdV

Crying. Maya still had Ben’s ring but why didn’t he ask her instead of sending a letter? that was his first time asking for it apparently. So she left him? yikes. Left and took his 800k ring 🤣🤣 she is a lil sick for that. All jokes aside I would’ve returned it. Yeah after that info is out there they’re never getting back together ever yikes. I know Ben’s games I have a feeling after their failed rekindling he got petty and did that. If he didn’t ask for the ring back until this failed rekindling he thought there was a chance they would get back together but now he knows there won’t be he sent that letter “demanding” for it back. Why didn’t he ask for it in those 4 months? Ben I know your tea https://twitter.com/metrouk/status/1617180307903348736?s=46

he’s so annoying lmao 😭 but i’d pawn it and call it a day. a gift is a gift idc he can go to hell
