Well, since Meta/Facebook will probably be pulling out of the UK along with every other social media company, that’s hardly a “threat”
You mean, "That's hardly a 'thread?'"
I'll see myself out
You mean, “hold this thread as I walk away” 🎶
Threadful this story. Poor wee nerds. Fight them Meta’s
Do you want to destroy my sweater?!?
Ba-dum-tssss!
Does that mean we’re in for an influx of br*tish people?
We're already here!
Your comment shows it will be posted "in 17 minutes", I have never seen that before.
9 more minutes I'm so exited
It's a kbin/lemmy integration thing. Although I did think it was fixed now.
Too bad, I was thinking this future-past connection thing we had could be really lucrative for us.
Yeah, sorry. I can't give you any lottery numbers just in time to buy a ticket.
That will raise too many questions after we win for the 3rd time. We need to ride the gold and soybean market fluctuations ;)
Well, see you win one lottery, to get the seed money. Then you suddenly become a really good futures trader overnight with the winnings.
EDIT: Which is kinda what you said I now realise.
Wow, you speak English so well! /s
I think you mean Bri*ish
We're already here. We lurk in the shadows.
Hmm...
We can hear you, you're not exactly quiet when drinking that tea.
Probably not. They'll farm the jobs off to Berlin, most likely.
With that said, I'd be shocked if the inevitable UK/US trade deal didn't include some degree of visa. British workers are cheap as fuck, and our service industries already do a lot of cheap labour for US companies that don't want to pay domestic workers.
