The pronoun “they” has been used to refer to the singular since the beginning of time (or since it started being used in middle and modern English anyhoo). Love, someone with an MA in English Language.

That’s a lovely tomato and mozzarella salad. Caprese never has balsamic. The trick is to find good tomatoes. And use lots of Evoo.

It’s a total pain to have to go into the community, scroll all the way down, and then get an error message when you click the block icon. Or a login screen. It should be possible to block communities from the front page.

What? There was only one referendum. What on Earth are you on about. You mean the undemocratically elected parliament?

Half the country didn’t vote for this and about 3.5 million EU citizens living in the UK weren’t allowed to vote (which was against EU regulations but nobody seems to care). So quit the “they asked for it” bullshit.

The vaccines are still free in many countries. PS the latest booster vaccinated against the wrong variant.

At least 15 percent of people end up with long covid. And that’s the ones who go to the doctor with it. Last Christmas everyone I talked to “didn’t have long covid, but…” They could no longer do anything without getting out of breath. Or they kept forgetting things. Or they could only clean the house for 10 minutes when they used to be able to clean all day.

And then there’s the diabetes, autoimmune disease, heart disease, dementia… All things you can end up with thanks to covid. And none of this is rare.
