I usually find watching WWII docs. puts me to sleep....the narrator usually has a pretty calming voice. There's nowt like genocide to make your own problems seem just a tad smaller. Or old movies.

:? Fwiw I struggle to watch stuff like that Monty.
Far from sending me to sleep I always get a gnawing sense of dread that starts in my stomach and takes hold of my whole being.
That sort of stuff usually leaves me pent up & unsettled for (days/dependant on specifics ), and most certainly encroaches on my sleep control patterns.

I should hope so, you'd be inhuman if it didn't. I do think it should be compulsory viewing at a certain age though, especially with the way the world is going!

Dispassionate viewing = objective assessment.

The PTSD will come soon enough....it's an entirely normal reaction....you come to recognise the triggers.

Political correctness. My sister started working for the NHS a couple of months ago in the endoscopy dept. and she mentioned to me in conversation that the NHS is now not allowed to refer to pregnant women as 'expectant mothers' incase is offends trannies who are carrying a child. They now have to be referred to as 'pregnant people' as to not offend the pregnant men. What. The. Duck...
I didn't believe her, I thought she was winding me up. So I googled it and it's true.

Can we call the policy makers total cocks or do we need to call them tw@ts as well, so as not to offend based on gender.

I think we should refrain from using profanity that refers to genitalia for the same reason.

This doesn't surprise me we have freedom of speech...as long as we say what is written down that is.

It makes me laugh when you see a young person turn up in a <3 year old car costing upwards of £25k because you know full well they do not own it and never will

Posers. Still at home with Mum and Dad too mostly. Either that or scraping fuel money together to get to and from work after getting anally raped renting a poxy studio flat.
