It’s the one main genre I just don’t get. There are a few bands I like, but that’s usually because they bridge a gap between metal and hard rock.

I think it’s the vocals that usually put me off.

Looking at the fuel gauge in the morning and thinking “this is in God’s hands now.”

Saying that most Brexit voters thought anything about an EEA arrangement is giving them too much credit imo.

Their thought process was as shallow as “we should be independent, get the foreigners out, save EU membership fees, then everything will be good”, with no thought about the reality of the situation and how it will be achieved.

A lot of them wanted hard Brexit just because negotiating a deal was taking too long, because in their minds it’s as simple as just leaving.

It’s become undeniable.

My mother was all in on Brexit, she started out fiercely declaring it’s what the country needed.

Then she said it’s going to benefit the country soon, then said it needs some time.

Then she said that everything going wrong was unrelated to Brexit. Then said its not that bad, and the eventual positives will balance out.

That’s the opinion shifting over the years. She now admits it was a mistake, “but how could we have known?!?”…

Yeah, forcing vulnerable people out of their homes so the government can misspend the saved money seems like a great idea.

Obviously we need to save money by taking it from the poorest and most vulnerable people in our society, they can’t fight for themselves so ez money.
