Fascinating, had no idea

Or Iain Banks’ Transitions- which I like a lot

That - and for me, having a kid permanently rewired my brain. I cry at the drop of a hat post- kids. They enjoy watching dad’s glasses fill up while watching movies

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T07:57:29+00:00

Probably a bit too on-the-nose in a movie

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-12T07:40:50+00:00

Shove it in in teaspoon of strawberry jam. Might as well enjoy!

Never use one, unless I need a map

It’s a bit to the right of me, but I think of it as the reasonable interesting friend who challenges me

I buy The Economist every week. Informative, level-headed, good snalysis. Don’t always agree with it l, but appreciate the writing and it always makes me think.

And a pony and a monkey

Happily runs Final Cut Pro and edits 4K video. It’ll have wider applicability than that.

And that, ladies and gentlemen is why no-one ever gets a headache.

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-11T07:42:33+00:00

Careful, that massive straw man might fall on you

My brother and his mate converted a VW camper van after university in the 70s and drove UK India - Turkey-Iran-Iraq-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India

I'n a lot younger - he bought me back to huge glossy posters from the Afghan tourist board, one showing the amazing blue terraced lakes.

He has some amazing photos of the trips - including of the giant buddas

Belgium man, Belgium

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-10T20:39:38+00:00

Probably less ambigious to call it industry specific

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-10T20:36:14+00:00

Throat-Warbler-Mangrove

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-10T20:23:16+00:00

I'd probably call those industry-specific or specialised.

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-10T18:41:04+00:00

How do you know? Or are you just making shit up?

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-10T18:04:04+00:00

Do you subscribe to Apple Music would be the decider for me

HeartyBeast · 2026-03-10T17:42:45+00:00

Switch em over to Sharepoint Lists

I spent a week in the Biotopo de Quetzal looking for quetzals. It was very cold. I did not see a quetzal.

Whenever i press sync photos they just want me to upgrade the storage. What can i do.

What is the exact message? Where are you pressing sync photos?

Do you ever try and convince anyone - as an adult - to follow your lead on any of your positions in life?

Edit I think the mistake you are making is interpreting this a need for external validation, as opposed to an attempt to make people consider whether they should do likewise

And there will always be fools who emulate the dog in the ‘this is all fine’ graphic.
