@whitequark yeah GL with that my Hungarian gf did it last year. It's definitely weird. She acquired a "copy" that was referring to the King as: "her majesty King Charles" which shows the level of care that went into the contents

@ckape it inexplicably has a better appreciation for the differences between Catholics and Protestants than most of the western media i happened to watch until that point

@whitequark "do you think that margaret thatcher effectively utilized girl power by funneling money to illegal paramilitary death squads in northern ireland?"

@whitequark lol the British “invented” insulin. I feel dumber just reading these Maybe you shouldn’t study, just pick the answer you think Boris Johnson would pick and you should be all right

@whitequark I'd actually like to ask about an earlier question, "What was the role of the Royal Navy after slavery was banned?"

Except my question to the UK is more along the lines of "What was the role of the Royal Navy *before* slavery was banned then?"
