  A lot of electrons have been inconvenienced just by this thread.

  Sort of deploying the Royal Navy to sink every small boat they can find in the channel, I’m struggling to see how he would stop the boats ™ in weeks.

  ‘Operation Early Dawn’ - who comes up with the names? I’m cringing so hard my cheeks hurt!

  That’s one expensive takeway. I hope it was tasty.

  The coming weekend will tell us whether the edge is gone.

  Is there a bigger societal waste day-in-day-out than people sitting in traffic jams? Any measure that reduces car journeys taken is a good measure in my books.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Ah, the classics.⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You love what you love. If others don’t, that’s cool. I quite like some songs by Nickelback, but they aren’t quite my favourite. I find myself listening to Creed from time to time and I think they are great.

  As for AB, the best band ever as far as I’m concerned. There is not a single AB album I haven’t played again and again. I’ve seen them live ten times or so, and will go see them every time I get the opportunity. And Myles could sing the phonebook and I’d still love it.

  This could be useful: www.swpc.noaa.gov/…/aurora-30-minute-forecast Also, if you ever get the opportunity, go see the northern lights inside the arctic circle. Full colours across the sky is something else. It’ll be winter time for obvious reasons, and therefore typically cold as fuck, but definitely worth it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People with depression or anxiety could lose sickness benefits, says UK minister⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I give the Tories this: they leave nobody under false impressions about what they stand for. Keep the ground rent racket going, homelessness must be a crime, being sick is no reason to skip work, mental health issues are just life’s normal ups and downs, ad infinitum. Quite charming, aren’t they.
