What an awful day to have eyes, that’s one of the worst sentences I’ve read in a minute. “For now” is the unwanted garnish on that particular turd sandwich, he should be banned from practicing medicine anywhere as fast as humanly possible!
As if filling the centre of the city with shit student housing isn’t enough of a disruption, let’s bung in a massive car park, as opposed to encouraging out of town parking.
Why did it take reading about right-wing nutters to let me know about bacon-wrapped asparagus?! How am I this late to that particular party? Or is that a thing only for the fash?
How the fuck did he get a horse on the flight in the first place?
I’m not sure what being almost 10yrs post robocop makes me feel, but I don’t like it. This future isn’t what I was promised in the 80s, and while no killer robots is nice, I still feel a bit cheated
Is he now the remaster chief?

Glad to see the Met taking the initiative and getting as many as possible in one place, by employing them
It’s not surprising that he’d get the occasional submarine malfunction, at his age
I live on a different continent, and my politics, such as they are, lean in exactly the opposite way to your republicans, but sure, my assessment of Biden being Netanyahu’s bitch is completely unfounded…
Nice of Biden to take Netanyahu’s dick out of his mouth for long enough to say “no!”

That’s just false. The carrington event happened due to a sun spot on the sun’s equator. Last week’s was far further down, and was classified as “the strongest geomagnetic storm since 2003”. The CME from the carrington event was fired out of the sun on the solar plane, directly at the earth, while last week the CME was vaguely in our direction, but well below our orbit. The sun is a ball, not a flat disc, and it didn’t somehow steer the ejection toward us out of a sense of malice. The carrington event produced currents in static wire that were sufficient to set telegraph stations on fire. That would have tripped every breaker in the power grid, you can’t “harden” against that level of induction. It’s like saying that a practice amp and a Marshall plexi are the same volume because they both go up to ten on their volume knob. All you, and the pillock in that video, are saying is that you don’t understand the mechanism behind that number
Edit: adding a reference. The following article spells it out pretty damn well, written by someone who actually understands the subject - https://www.astronomy.com/science/a-large-solar-storm-could-knock-out-the-internet-and-power-grid-an-electrical-engineer-explains-how/
And, in all fairness, every other person and living organism on the planet, pretty much.
Maybe because there’s an army of us born and raised before diagnosis was common, living undiagnosed, and thinking we’re just fuckwits or that we broke our brains when younger.
A combination of having to live with just themselves for company over lockdown, and finding au/adhd memes that start as funny, and then slide toward “oh fuck, that actually explains a lot… is that… me?” has led a lot of people to seek help and diagnosis, so it looks like a rise of adult au/adhd spectrum individuals.
I see your agenda here
Can you clarify what you mean by “Watching for the bloom”? I’m an espresso boy, I don’t generally get to see what’s happening in the brew chamber, so I’m unfamiliar with what that term actually means. I’ve watched James’ videos pretty religiously, but it’s your comment that’s made me realise I don’t know what that actually means!
He only wants it for marketplace. I can sympathise, that’s where all the really good awful car deals are, and cheap tools that I don’t need, but really want
