      That’s a great idiom- can I ask if you came up with it, translated it, or encountered it natively in English?

          Thank you! Oh yeah, it seems like it would work in all sorts of scenarios. I’m especially thinking about when someone is talking too much about something they have no knowledge of.

          I keep my arms lubed with the blood of fascists and haters.

          Amerkkka is no longer the dominant force over here. We’ve started taking her back.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think “reputable news source” needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
