If she completely rebranded to Suzy then a lot of people wouldn’t know who you were talking about, and she’d lose so much public affiliation. As you say, Eddie Izzard is a stage name as much as it is a brand name.
Eddie Izzard in public, Suzy in private. Makes sense.
Doesn’t surprise me. I run an asylum hotel and while I was sat there, the manager of the hotel got into an argument with and SU and said “I’ll put you on that plane to Rwanda myself” and I went fucking lairy.
One of my guys was given illegal work by the previous hotel he lived at, and when they found he was due to move, they let themselves into his room and stole the £1000 they’d paid him. Said if he tried to complain they’d report him as assaulting them.
1 and 7 for me. I work with 20+ languages and can’t understand a single one of them outside of English. Even the languages I’m trying to get a basic understanding of each have different dialects.

We heard on the radio today about a somebody who’s named their dogs after rock stars. We’ve been at it too. We had Lzzy and Slash in aquarium and now we have dogs called Myles (Kennedy) and Ronnie (James Dio). How do you name your pets?
I’ve mostly just kept their names from rescue. I adjusted the spelling of Louis to Louie, because to me Louis is pronounced either Lewis or like the mum from Malcolm in the Middle.
Chalky kept his name because he’s 12 so good luck teaching him anything else.
We renamed our girl to Freya because we were having a viking phase. She was Dolly before so would have changed it no matter what.
They appear to be really getting on board with the old baked beans, I can only assume this was a targeted attack designed to spread our tomatoiest cultural export on the Americans’ independence day
...how many of you will stay? Personally, I wiped my Reddit history and deleted my account, so I'm definitely here to stay. I can see, however, that a number of people see Lemmy more as a distraction until the blackout is over. I wonder what that number would be.

What is your local word for alleyway/snicket/close?
I used the word snicket to describe an alley the other day and my friend looked at me like I had three heads. It’s the bap/roll/cob debate all over!
