This is going to be really great for my next level one restart. I'm going to be able to get so much xp as soon as I get my hands on a dagger and a clumsily constructed wooden shield.

Devs are finally making some good changes, although small.

10_0 , in Giant spiders the size of rats making a comeback in UK

I have a large garden spider in my house, me and it have a policy, out of sight out of deaths reach. If a spider the size of that thumbnail enters my house, there will be no places to hide, I will kos. Besides there are no rats here only flies.

bizarroland ,

Up until recently I had cedar roofing and when I pulled it off there were so many spiders that got unhomed. I felt bad about that especially since I put a metal roof on and there's nowhere for them to hide now.

The spiders got their revenge though because after I unhomed all of the spiders that were protecting my house I started getting ants or the occasional bug here or there.

Fortunately, the spiders have now moved under my decks and into the cedar siding on the house and they are once again protecting my house from unwanted pests.

I love me some spiders, I don't want to touch them I don't want to deal with them but when I see them hanging out I'm like cool thanks for taking care of the place my friend.

Kaboom , in Outrage as librarians reveal schools banning LGBT+ books after parents’ complaints

Well, what kind of books? Are we talking about normal lgbtq books, or are talking ban-bait books like gender queer?

Warl0k3 ,

Does it matter?

Kaboom ,

Yes. Some will include explicit pictures of sexual acts, so when they get discovered and removed, the author can cry censorship and get free advertising.

flamingos ,

Literally the fourth paragraph of the article:

The responses revealed that specific titles removed from school libraries included This Book Is Gay, by Juno Dawson, a memoir about a young person discovering their sexual identity; Julián is a Mermaid, by Jessica Love, a picture book about a gender non-conforming boy who dreams of being a mermaid; and the alphabet book ABC Pride, by Louie Stowell, Elly Barnes and Amy Phelps, which introduces young readers to the alphabet while they learn more about the LGBT+ community.

So no Chuck Tingle books then?

Why does it feel like the world is going backwards

NKBTN ,

It is. Poverty breeds ignorance, and with poverty on the rise…

And guess who is causing said poverty?

I hope Mr. Amazon is okay.

Schools should not be giving in to bigots and banning books. The content of school libraries should have the same protections as the curriculum itself.

Many of these bans seem very knee jerk also, if books are being removed after single complaints.

Christ, now I know why my ancestors moved to the US, haha.

tobogganablaze ,

I hope it wasn’t to try to escape fishing spiders because the US has 9 from the same genus. And Dolomedes tenebrosus is even larger than our European ones.

TheGrandNagus ,

Moving from the UK to the US to escape scary animals is an… interesting choice lol

Charzard4261 , in Golden age of English universities could be over, says head of watchdog

Increased tuition fees? I guess 50k in debt isn’t enough punishment for a decision 18 year olds are pressured to make.

Are European universities struggling as much? Because my (same age) co-workers say they only had a few thousand in debt for their entire courses, so there must be another way of doing things.

Zip2 , in Outrage as librarians reveal schools banning LGBT+ books after parents’ complaints

If the parents are this ignorant then it’s even more important that kids (particularly theirs) have access to this kind of material.

apotheotic , in Giant spiders the size of rats making a comeback in UK

That’s so nice! I’m so happy for them! Is there a map of exactly where they’re making a comeback so I can avoid those places particularly!

j4yt33 , in Giant spiders the size of rats making a comeback in UK

No

I look at the fees charged nowadays, and I’m convinced that if I had just finished my A-levels, I’d just go and train as a paramedic.
You still get a degree, except as it’s also an apprenticeship you get paid.
