United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

It's easier than that to desensitise, there's 8 hour videos of fireworks on youtube. Put it on starting really quiet so you can barely hear it for a bit each day, then slowly increase the volume. I foster so I do it with every dog that comes in, usually every day for 2 weeks. None of mine even flinch.
There's a lot who don't want to put the work in, but their dogs are already desensitised to loads of other loud noises like the TV, Ambulances passing, even low flying planes. Think of all the people who put war films on and don't think twice about all the bombs and gunshots.
