Bude. Don’t go to Bude. There is nothing to see there.

Two separate pizzas for breakfast and lunch, got it.
Only mildly relevant to the topic but I saw him in this and he was awesome, a really amazing actor. The rest of the cast were good but he was a cut above.
I think it was done with the very best of intentions, what it taught me is that you should either just go ahead and give up your seat or hang on to it, it’s the asking that makes things worse.
London transport introduced the little “baby on board” badges shortly after this, which simplified matters hugely.
I was on a packed commuter train once and in the silence this conversation happened
Seated guy (loudly): Are you pregnant?
Standing woman: Sorry?
Sg: I said are you pregnant?
Sw: No
Sg: Oh okay
The second hand cringey embarrassment of that interaction has stayed with me for about 25 years
Socialised private transport? Call it a car club and it’s private enterprise and therefore okay, like Zipcar here in the UK!
At this point why even have your own car? A pool of cars that can come and pick you up when you need it would be more efficient and allow the cost to be shared widely across a group
I’ve been here since the API changes at Reddit and the sub blackouts that followed, and I think it’s becoming more interesting all the time. Back in the early days there was no point in refreshing the /all feed more than once every 4 hours as it just wouldn’t have changed, now it’s much more than that. The number of posts with actual discussions are increasing, and other than a few blocked users, communities and one instance, I like the people I’m sharing space with.
My dumb self went off to the comments section looking for a user called Big QWERTY
I read the first law trilogy again recently, so fun
I really enjoyed The City and The City, it was a really novel and interesting concept about how far socially constructed concepts can go.
Perdido Street Station I couldn’t get into though.
It all makes so much sense now!
Legitimately, that sounds fascinating, go on.
Interesting stuff! Also, holy fuck space.com on my mobile has about 3 lines of text between all the ads!
In the UK we still use Tories as a nickname for the conservative party, one of the two main parties in our political system and a kind of pound store republican party. They do indeed still feign royalism when it suits their purposes, some things never change.
If it turns out in a few years time that Russia leant on Iran to lean on various Middle East actors to stir up trouble at that exact point to distract from Ukraine, you can colour me unsurprised.
Dinosaurs existed on the other side of the galaxy!
As in, it was so long ago that Earth has done half of a great cycle since then.
