They’re planning ahead for this possibility.
- Comment on Is there an optimal angle when using a urinal? 4 days ago:
We theoretically predict and experimentally validate that when the impinging angle is below an invariant critical value of ∼30^◦^, the flow rate of splashback under human urination conditions can be significantly suppressed…

That’s what happens when you take it out at 8 or 9 when some areas of the meat have not been fully converted to carbon. Around stage 10, this conversion adds some support but then the bacon becomes much more brittle from 14 to 18.

- Comment on If a person were paranoid about a potential food shortage in the next two to three years, what should they stock up on now? 1 week ago:
Multivitamin tablets. Not much of a meal on their own but if food availability and variety become an issue, they’ll help replace some of what you’re missing.

Keep a few pairs of adhesive-backed googly eyes in a bag or pocket so opportunities like this don’t pass you by.

If people didn’t just vote against their fucking better interests we would be in a much better situation.
Red-staters seem perfectly fine with punching themselves in the face if it means they can stumble back and bloody the nose of the durn libburuls standing behind them.
- Comment on Child’s school updated the uniform policy 1 week ago:
Statutory guidance: Cost of school uniforms (Updated 23 October 2025) looks useful. Here’s some stuff that stands out to me:
Assess the overall cost implications
Schools should assess the overall cost implications of their school uniform policy…: for instance, when a child may grow out of an item quickly or where spare items are likely to be needed.Avoid frequent changes
Schools should… show how any change in uniform specifications secures the best value for money…Schools should take action to minimise any financial impact of any change on parents (such as allowing pupils to continue to wear the old uniform for a reasonable period or… only introducing new uniforms at entry or transition points in the school).
Consider how costs affect different groups of pupils
Schools should consider how the cost of their uniform might affect… families on very low incomes.Engage with parents and pupils
Schools should… be able to show how these views have been considered in their policy.Avoid needing additional uniform for extra-curricular activities
Schools should avoid requiring parents to purchase additional uniform for the purpose of… sport, music or drama.I cut out a bunch because it’s wordy at times, the link above is worth a full read though. It also has some non-statutory guidance on linked pages. I don’t see anything to make an argument against the changes
a slam-dunkknock them for six(? I’m on the wrong side of the pond to know how to use that) but I think there are some threads you can pull there. - Comment on Not sure this was a good fortune reading 1 week ago:

The shapes make me think of lockpicks and tension wrenches. Use red or yellow to gently rotate the assembly while green or blue work the pins. Eventually the whole thing spins free and opens up.

Georgia O’Keeffe would approve. At least they didn’t include molten wax running down the candle shaft… I mean, stick.
