This is a result of Brexit, we used to have loads of EU nurses, lots left. I was recently in hospital and it was awful because of lack of nurses. I was quite upset reading this. The Tories treat public sector workers, including nurses so badly, some nurses actually have to rely on foodbanks they’re paid so little (e.g. if part time lone parent), it’s disgusting.
Brexit is fucking terrible on so many levels.

Apparently according to Edelstans Edelgard hating the Chruch because of her traumatic experience is because "the only reason it could happen was because of the crest system because without it the corrupt nobles wouln't have allowed it etc". Can we stop scategoaping the crest system for every wrong that happened ? And can we also stop acting as if her character made any sense "Crestless people are suffering from injustices because I got experiemented because of my crest because the Agarthans" make it make sense
??
Crust system BaD bcs without it corrupt nobles wouldn't exist ?
Siding and abiding by Uncle'n'pals really shows how much figs she gives to the laymen she's pretending to save, aka you imo can't pretend to help and fight for the sake of the weak if you're blitzing through them for their sake (you had to die for... Your sake ?) and if, at least in Fe16, Baldo'n'Waldi are members of the imperial army.
I was talking to a friend, but the Crust system uwu is a scapegoat in the same vein "society" is used as an ultimate excuse to absolve everyone from facing consequences of their actions, or to give some characters something easy to blame.
Tbh, Fodlan verse really gets the cake and eats it by blaming "crust system" for everything that happens - regardless of the seriously sucky meaning it can have if you consider crest = blood from another race - and apparently changing the "system" by either axing or sniping or replacing the pope.
I know FE isn't a political series where you're supposed to be concerned with the hows, much like Aragorn's returns ushers a new golden age for men and no one gaf about his unfamous tax policies, but at least LotR isn't blaming everything happening on Middle Earth on the governance of Gondor or the degree of elven blood each person has.

The elites in Britain have nearly destroyed their own country. It's no wonder they've been trying to dominate over here in entertainment, even trying to pick and choose which actors are popular, FOR US. The money is better here. Maybe the BBC should have gotten over it's fetish with the Victorian era.

sorry to possibly be a pain in the arse but do you think you will at some point in the future ship to Europe/the EU (again)? I think I bought something from you before and love your stuff <3
You’re not being a pain! It’s the shipping tariffs that are a massive pain for me to work out right now and get right. I wish I could say yes, but honestly it’s a lot more faff since effing Brexit messed everything up.

Solution to Northern Ireland Protocol: Make Ireland Leave the EU
Debates and discussions continue between the UK "prime minister" Rish! Sunak, Northern Irish leaders and the European Union in attempting to find a solution to the protocols which cloud the situation concerning the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
All have so far proved fruitless and all have overlooked the simple solution: Ireland should also leave the EU, allowing them and the UK to come up with a solution between them. #Irexit

The Pizza Conspiracy
Context: Youtuber Food Theory wanted to figure out what was the best value pizza from the Big Four chains.

The channel discovered that you get less pizza if you add toppings.
*record scratch*
Ranting below the cut
Now in the UK, prices just went nuts. It's practically impossible to order a single pizza from the Big 4 for delivery at less than £20, and adding toppings will rocket that price up to around £25 to £30.
So the notion that you pay the equivalent price of 9-12 brand-name frozen pizzas for one, that arrives cold, slightly mutilated by the driver picking it up sideways, with enough grease to melt the bottom of the box is madness.
And now we find that this disaster piece is actually less pizza than if you just phoned it in with the bare minimum Cheese n' Tomato is somewhat astounding, confounding, and discombobulating.
I mean also these delivery places have a record of screwing up the order about 60% of the time and in one case took so long to deliver the food that the restaurant called up to ask what'd happened because my order was sitting on the counter, cold.
But fair's fair, in that case, Deliveroo did tell me to go f**k myself.
"Ok it took 2 and a half hours to move a pizza 2 miles in a car, it was cold, and the order was wrong but you got food. Here's £2.50 towards your next order, you whining shit. Don't forget to fill out our survey! And because we don't pay minimum wage to our gig economy desperados, don't forget to tip the guy who caused this".
I gave up - The quality just went down and down. The chicken strips turned into Chicken Nuggets. The deal for 2 sides turned into 'You can have two warm salads because we ain't putting the quality stuff on the deals'. The soda started showing up in smaller and smaller bottles.
Welcome to Brexit. Your pizza costs you 5 hours' wages and if you get toppings they steal from you. They make 30 billion, and charge you a delivery fee, but you have to tip the driver.
Enjoy!
