It was their "deal of the day" on the 24th June last year too.

'.. are attracted to more than one gender' is the definition used by the bi+ community.

Lotus 1-2-3 would disagree so Excel still does.

At what point does "we turn away" become "we turned away" if threatening to invade Canada, Greenland and Panama, plus publicly musing about not supporting Taiwan should the PRC invade hasn't already done so?

It would have been funnier if they'd given the signal for six runs and crashed as a result.

I learnt all I needed to know when half of the cave divers here died in assorted misadventures and accidents one year.

And if anyone knows who was the 'female coordinator' for the Bi presence at Pride in 1997, my memory has completely failed me on that one.
No paperwork on it either, unlike 1996's.

If you want to be in the march - and there are obs lots of reasons not to - let me know.

There are at least three years supposed to be the one he was booed on the main stage for his relationship with a woman.

Are you doing anything at this year's?

1994's Pride was in Stockwell Park, which had not so much a 'bi tent', as a 'bi wind shelter' in the marketplace space.
Good view of the stage at the bottom of the hill though...

It was 1996 - first one - and 1997 - the one he played in - though :)

Here, it's £40+VAT, then at least £160+VAT per year.
The area of expertise I was a expert witness in a few years isn't in it (or anything like it) and some areas I know about do not contain the names of people I would be wanting, if I were after one.

Mmm, looked at one way, it looks almost like the 'Hello important person, you are invited to be in the International Directory of Important People. Please send details of your importance. Oh and £140 for a copy' scams I used to get spam about.

These are ~80 years old. Designed to kill fascists, not parade for them.

That hyphen - just because of the length of the line or because they thought it was 'bi-sexual', I wonder?

Wanting to be a 'people stay here and see ads' site rather than a search engine is why I dumped Digital's Alta Vista in favour of the then new Google decades ago.
This is why I ditched Google's search in favour of Qwant last year.
(See Ed Zitron for more of the Google / AI story.)

Interestingly, one thing I have taken comes up as SEVERE (theoretical) with erythromycin and Moderate (study) with grapefruit in the BNF.
104 interactions with grapefruit in their list for it, not including combination products ('check individually').

I am old enough to remember the first regeneration, but only the last couple of Hartnell stories.

It took someone registering a company in the name of (then Business Secretary) Vince Cable to make a point in 2013 to even start this.
They were charged with 'supplying false information' and fined.
At the time, I think it was the first ever prosecution. Don't know if it's still the last.

20 year old?
You really don't look 80 years old now...

I missed this - I just do edits and very occasionally vote - but WTF.

I shouldn't even know the name of their squadron leader unless he's a relative.

If I'm in charge of a battalion, it's literally not my job to manage each platoon, so don't make me.
This is why I hate Gary Grigsby's War in the East - you're in charge of the whole WW2 Eastern Front and you can pick what size bombs a squadron will use on a mission.

Looking, the like count on their recent posts is along the lines of 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 0, 0, 0...
It's almost impressive how low figures they consistently manage to get given that it's got several thousand followers.

I am not surprised at the ratio of replies going 'just pay some lawyers to set up and manage a trust' vs those going 'the system should fucking change because the disabled are people'.

Apple insisting their method is right and everyone else is wrong??
Must be a different Apple, perhaps it's the music company.

Certainly still got the t-shirt, probably still have the badge, definitely still prefer the bi-angles to the bisexual pride flag as a symbol.

Helps with the message. People can (wrongly) tell themselves that they're not drunk, but it's hard to deny that you're drinking alcohol.

Hmm, I am not saying an insurrection is a good idea but US public opinion & its armed forces, military + paramilitary, are a LOT happier killing Iraqis than killing Americans.

I certainly know more than one person with over 5k.
A bunch of them are women and their inclusion or exclusion from surveys definitely affect the mean :)

Not a huge effort though. Go to the right places with the appropriate attitude & it wouldn't be hard to have a thousand partners in about 100 days.
The UK Biobank survey assumed that 99,997 was an impossible number of partners to have - I have known people who would have seen that as a challenge.

(goes off to check)
Yes, mean of six. Median was about half that.

Lifetime 10k would certainly be doable if you lived in the right city, made an effort, and could remember faces to avoid accidental double counting. (Or presumed that never happened in situations where you don't see faces...)
Actual mean in the Sigma Research annual surveys was six, from memory.

I wonder if they were the only ones in the party's group stupid enough to say yes to having the posts.

In this field, it's a way to learn that not all publicity is good publicity, I suppose.
Children's social services in particular are a way to end up on the front pages, and not in a good way.

Anyone who does will have to add that they're not talking about statues.

It's mixed.
Personally, I am still annoyed with fellow editor who refused to accept the Ben Whishaw Q is queer or gay/bi (per references in LGBTQ+ media) rather than 'gay' (references in things like Radio Times).

That's an interesting downside of their setup, given that books have 0% VAT.
I can see '... and the cuddly toy' (or whatever extra) would complicate things, but still.

'Fruit growing' or something else?

When they first jumped into the transphobic swamp, it was their 'paid at least $100k according to the accounts I looked at' director, Ian L-T doing it. Still there, according to bi org.
Fucking embarrassing, both as a bi organisation with actual money doing it and as an bi activist Ian.

This was my thought as well - it would be VERY interesting to see their management accounts which will (should!) show at what point they knew their cashflow situation was terminal.
The costs of a SCC action are very favourable to the claimant too.
