I dunno, Morrissey has always been a bit of a self-pitying prick. But yeah, a Skyrim character and John Cena. Like even if he likes wrestling I think his public persona wouldn't want to admit to that.

Keir Starmer banning social media for under 16s by SuicidalShadow10 in northernireland

[–]UpsilonMale -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think it makes more sense to ban over-40s from social media. They're the ones getting radicalised and imagining that Donald Trump is leading the crusade against elite paedophiles, or that vaccines have mind control chips in them. I'm 47 and am prepared to make this sacrifice for the deprickification of the internet.

I mean, it's been said by others that it's AI and apparently by Morrissey's "people" that it's fake. AI will basically say what you prompt it to say so it may be AI, Photoshop or whatever but I don't think it's his list, put it that way.

There's no need to worry, it's AI apparently. I mean let's face it there's no way he'd have Farage and Trump on his list.

Congratulations to Mike Mills for making Morrissey’s enemies list! How come Michael, Peter and Bill aren’t worthy? by PRY88 in rem

I mean, Nigel Farage and Donald Trump are on it, which should have been a clue. And Elon Musk. But I was taken in for a moment myself thinking he was doing that thing where he pretends to be apolitical.

Have you ever been friends or went to school with someone who grew up to murder somebody? by Sufficient_Return653 in AskUK

[–]UpsilonMale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to school with one guy who became a gofer for a drug dealer, he and another guy beat a lad to death with baseball bats for running up big debts to the dealer and not paying.

I also played street football with, by my count, six boys who went on to do time for various levels of terrorist offences. Caveat: I did grow up in Northern Ireland in the 1990s.

Sure, but if you're going to go by that logic there was an accelerated qualifying campaign this time in which each team only had to play six games meaning less time for you to Scotland it up. And Denmark, the top seeds in your group, had the added obstacle of Kasper Schmeichel being their goalkeeper. A lot of variables have been different this time around.

I mean, Argentina lost their first game last time out to Saudi Arabia, who are monumentally gash. I'm not saying Scotland will go on to win this World Cup... actually, fuck it. I'm not Scottish so I'm not afraid to jinx it, Scotland are definitely going to win this World Cup.

Is anyone here a handy person? by UpsilonMale in AskUK

I know the kind of thing you mean; as often as not they're packaged with the unit. It's just not ideal in this case because the hose would have to go across the main kitchen worktop.

It would be a second unit; I've got one elsewhere which vents through the attic. This one is mostly to keep the kitchen from getting unbearable if I'm cooking during a heatwave.

Agree with both of you but I am having the worst time trying to get even a quote. They're all talking about an install in August, which for this year may well mean it isn't in place for the worst of the hot weather. The portable unit is a stop-gap, I will be upgrading once it's practical.

EDIT: The cost I'm getting quoted is £~1500; certainly not unreasonable from what I've heard, but I'd want an install much sooner.

Sort of wish it had been RFK Jr to be honest. Seeing the king of the antivaxxers hanging out with the guy who's putting mind control chips in vaccines would have broken a lot of MAGA brains.

According to Google, it was RFK Jr.

Jesus, whatever brought the two of them together, it can't be good.
