Came here to say exactly this.

Plus, she wasn't the first to claim that name. Someone else thought that'd be a good handle too.

This was how I did it.

It's a Chrome extension called Nuke Reddit History and allows you to overwrite and then delete every post and comment you made.

That's not quite the only reason. The EU have egg all over their face because they based their vaccine programmes on the precautionary principle, and also had to run it past their ridiculously slow bureaucracy and get agreement from all 26 country members.

The UK (and the US and Israel) went proactive and ordered large quantities at relatively high prices on the condition that they were supplied first once it was ready. So when the UK started vaccinating in massive numbers (with mostly the AstraZeneca jab because it was cheaper and didn't have cold storage problems, and was developed in Oxford) the EU panicked.

First they tried to block its export from factories in the EU, but that turned out to be against the law and not possible, then they started rumours that it had problems with over 65s (not true) which they had to backtrack hard on when none of their own older citizens wanted to take it as it became available. Now they are pushing the blood clotting fallacy. If the AZ jab can be seen to fail, Brexit and the UK can be seen to fail. We mustn't underestimate the need for the EU to ALWAYS be the victor in everything.

The kneeling was pathetic. And Wales deserved to win. The ref was French, which is punishment enough.

Not true. They've got his easy because it's a work phone.

He's been moving to the left for decades.

Considering some of the shit he was coming out with in the run-up to the 20th, I'd say that'd be an interesting examination.

I have less and less time for this sloppy mess of a lawyer.

I went there so you didn't have to. Best quote I found,

"Trump may not have started up a new war overseas but he sure as hell waged one at home, using propaganda techniques, technology and a non-stop barrage of lies and lurid demagoguery."

A war of words because sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will always send me to my safe space.

I know that you've blocked him, but as several others have said, leave a path open for him. Your friendship has matured over years and you'll be able to pick it up in the future no matter what happens.

It's all about having a sense of humour, and proportion. If he has those, then you'll be reconnecting for sure. I'd contact him, wish him and his fiance well for the wedding, and tell him that it's a shame what happened and once the dust has settled you'd love to catch up and just chill. Right now he's cuntstruck, his wedding is a leviathan looming over him and he'll have no mental space for you.

But you will be there. Redpilling him with your maturity.

Seriously, get a grip. I'm all for expressing your emotions but there comes a time when you just put it to one side and get on with your life.

If you really want to express them, run for local office.
