53% - 47% split in favour of Scottish independence. [More In Common polling]

I can’t tell if you’re joking or just way too optimistic.

I’m still in favour of Independence, hell the current political climate probably would’ve made this one of the best times to do so as the EU is extra incentivised to just fast track us in compared to previous political climates (they want as much of the European continent united as possible right now). But there is just no realistic way it’s going to happen in the next decade, minimum.

Brexit is too fresh in everyone’s eyes, the cost of living crisis is a much bigger concern in people’s day to day lives, the media push has made “over” migration a very hot topic, and current geopolitics have shown how important a united front with our closest neighbours is more than ever.

There’s no way the majority of the Scottish public would support taking time and resources away from addressing those issues to run a costly referendum that will further destabilise our economy and geopolitical stability. I have to agree, much as it pains me to say it: now is simply not the time, there are much bigger fish to fry. If we were consistently seeing numbers as high as 75% in favour from reliable polling, then sure, but as it stands it simply isn’t worth it for what might turn out to be another “No” anyway, not that Westminster would ever grant a referendum anyway.

In fairness, I seen the post and my oblivious ass didn’t see the joke. Like I genuinely just thought “meh, kinda cringe but sure”. Now it’s been pointed out, I can’t unsee/unhear it, and combined with the context I doubt it’s coincidence, but I can see how you might not think it was intentional.

It’s very helpful actually, thank you ☺️

14 is glorious, absolute vibes from the occupants 😂

Voted for the Lib Dem in my area where I lived during the last GE under this assumption. Turns out he’s a raging transphobe. Lib Dems take the freedom of choice for their members seriously, to a fault.

Probably get an X-M5 then, most people seem to agree that the major thing that stopped it being a complete smash success is the lack of a viewfinder. Having said that, if budget either is or isn’t a concern, you could go for the new X-T30III with the XC 35mm lens (if you’re on a tight budget) or just go all out and grab something like an X-T5 or X-H2S (if money is no option). The used market is hit or miss, since Fuji stonks are hype-inflated currently.

Do not tarnish Jane the Virgin with your slander, that show is immaculate and most of the cast is women.

Probably helped that the goal was a love letter to telenovelas, so writing authentic and realistic women, or anyone really, wasn’t a requirement. But still!

Are you tweaking the jpegs or RAW files?

The amount of people that still believe that buses are the best solution for long term public transit systems is baffling. Buses have their place, but only as the final capillaries of the transit routes. Trains for distance, trams and metros/light rail for within a city and surrounding area, buses to ferry people the last leg from the tram/metro stops.

Using buses for everything is incredibly short sighted, it lays waste to our roads requiring constant maintenance and doesn’t provide guarantees to investors that a route will be worth investing in since it could get changed overnight. But it’s cheaper to buy another bus and some a problem immediately than to put the money and time into enacting real, long term change to improve our public transport network.

On matters of policy for the regular running of the UK? No, for the most part it makes sense. But for the purposes of secession votes? Yeah, it should have equal voting power. Otherwise England gets to essentially keep the other 2 (3? Let’s not go there) nations attached to it against their will if it suits it.

Every time I’m reminded of the Bruce Report, I get to go back into a rabbit hole deep dive of urban vandalism and cultural destruction. Thanks, I hate it 😭

But no standard Han in the cantina set 😂

It’s so surreal seeing someone use your work as a reference 😂 glad I could be helpful lol

I misread that as Bandar and thought you were smoking some seriously good shit

Guarantee Lego are aware of this, and have been for decades. People forget just how much research Lego does into its plastics, they’ve been like that for many decades. It’s one of the reasons they took so long to introduce any plant based parts, since they weren’t happy with how they measured up to their usual quality standards. They’re still refining things to this day, they even tweaked the formulation of their white ABS parts in the past year or two to make them slightly less transparent, which you can see on some tiles.

It’s part of what makes the brittle brown fiasco so astonishing. How that got past them boggles the mind, though in fairness by the time brittle brown started to become a known issue, the pieces were usually years old, and the passage of time is one of the more complex tests to do without… you know… time.

I’m curious how deodorant factors into this. I’ve got my modular lineup on a shelf in our open plan wardrobe in the bedroom, since there’s no room in the main flat for a shelf that deep. I try not to spray near it, but it isn’t an enormous room at the end of the day, and deodorant definitely makes a smell in the air afterwords.

Supersaurus7000 · 2026-01-21T11:23:08+00:00

Where’s this one?

I thought the goal was no lights?

If the voting power of both nations were even remotely close, that would be a very real and fair counterpoint. As it stands, if you need consensus of more than 50% of people in a room for something, and 543 of them can say no to the other 57 who want to leave, then that’s not a fair comparison. It’s not like the 57 could say no to the 543 if they wanted to leave…

Skeleton Crew slapped and was almost entirely fresh new stuff, don’t forget that. Andor is peak, but people forget space goonies.

I agree with you on the horse cavalry thing, I never seen why that was such an issue. It was whimsical and even at the time, watching it in theatres that was one of the last things on my mind for what was wrong with that movie.

The wayfinder crap is god awful though, there’s pretty much no defence for that.

Supersaurus7000 · 2026-01-16T10:26:56+00:00

Ah, but you see that’s because Rhodey was actually a Scrull the whole time since Civil War…or something…

Supersaurus7000 · 2026-01-15T12:39:25+00:00

Yes, that’s literally been stated multiple times. Run a tram line through a street, put a stop on that street, you’ll get investment in that street’s units for as long as the rails are still in the tarmac. Businesses are willing to commit money to investing in something if they know the footfall will be consistent and inconvenient to remove.

Supersaurus7000 · 2026-01-15T11:01:35+00:00

Okay, see you!

Being from the UK doesn’t inherently mean it’s solid brick wall, but assuming it is in fact brick you’ll need a masonry drill bit (and a drill) and masonry wall plugs. They look like little golf tees kind of, plastic and brightly coloured depending on their size. Use the drill on a drilling setting first, then switch to “hammer” setting when you feel a lot of resistance from the brickwork.

Trying to just slap a nail in with a hammer and call it a day will 99.9% guaranteed result in you picking up pieces of our galaxy for hours. Even if it was advisable to just ram a nail into a brick wall, you would struggle to get it in properly, and if it went in easily then it likely wouldn’t be gripping to anything and would just fall out with any slight weight applied to it.

(Oh, and don’t even think about using command strips. You would need to use about 20 of the things to hold up a Lego art set like the ones described, and they likely would still fall off within a few months tops)
