Happy International Women's Day from your favourite International Woman. To celebrate, why not buy a book about medieval women's history, the cover of which will be marked as offensive on this website?

I've just remembered the weirdest news story from the town I was living in a decade ago. Three separate human feet were found in a local park, over the course of a few months. Police investigated and announced 'nothing to be worried about, they're probably from somebody's private collection.'
...
ME: 20 years ago we had No Child Left Behind. Now we have None Pizza Left Beef. Is this anything
MY FRIEND WHO LIVES IN A BUNK BED IN A GARAGE WITH ME: None pizza left beef was also 20 years ago
OWNER TEXTING US BOTH: Can you keep it down I'm recording ASMR
Sorry for everyone who was emotionally invested in this story, I went to the pub after work. Anyway, as an update, the lorry is still there, still blinking its hazards, and it feels like it's with increasing desperation.
I will let you know if the lil guy is still there when I get back
What I can say is that sickly lorry has signs on it warning of flammable stuff inside, so that's fun
Bad news: I have to leave the house for a few hours. Good news: meant I got to take a closer look at the stricken lorry on the way out. Bad news: I don't know how vehicles work so I couldn't possibly tell you what's wrong with it.
It literally was *exactly* that
Update: no movement. Poor lil dude is still sitting there, hazards forlornly blinking
God yes, safe pair of hands and very practical
A tiny success of sorts! The lorry has crawled into a position where it is only blocking one lane. However, it is very, very sick and will need to be rescued. I am excited to see what sort of lorry turns up to rescue a poorly lorry.
A man has now turned up to gesticulate at the lorry in some sort of attempt to signal that it should maybe try to move from out of the middle of the road.
Alas, it makes my house too identifiable, though this may change if the situation becomes protracted and it ends up on the news
Honestly the world needs bossy ladies who become vigilante traffic controllers
The lorry appears to have hurt itself in wedging itself along the full width of the road. Bossy lady is simultaneously directing traffic and trying to guide it into some sort of less silly position.
Genuinely, I am *glued* to the window right now
A very bossy lady has appeared and taken it on herself to redirect traffic. Standing in the road waving cars up side streets.
Absolute scenes on my road today as a lorry fucked up a turn and has got itself wedged across the road like that ship in the suez canal
This honestly makes me feel comfier here because I came up through twitter, the "having friends is ableist" discourse website
In which I reply to someone with a blacked out name that they are missing the joke and they inform me that in-jokes are virtue signals βused often by the far right.β Kinda want to frame it.
And they keep saying Bluesky doesnβt have the juiceβ¦
It has been brought to my attention that the spite donation link at the bottom of the thread no longer works. Should you like to make a gloat or spite donation to celebrate Goodwin failing completely at nominative determinism, you can boil his piss here www.vaginamuseum.co.uk/donate
an account called Lorraine driver says 'It's a vote to split the Labour majority and hand it to frog face' Chris Boyd replies with 'hi lorraine I'm here as a representative of 'things that age really well or really badly' company and, well, how do you feel about the latter Lorraine: please fuck off Chris: I'll put a tick next to I've felt better'
Hahahahahahaha
