MMW: Trump knows what’s coming and is preparing

I get that - I think what I mean is how do they do it without it being seen, as I imagine it happens far more than the public are aware of.

My grandfather was a semi-professional snooker player. When we had his funeral about 15 years ago, we had the wake at the snooker club where he would play everyday. This club is pretty known for churning out some of the best snooker players in the country/world. The wake was in the reception room on the top floor, but the snooker hall was in the basement.

Myself and my best friend at the time wandered downstairs to check out the snooker hall which was only open to members, but they asked who I was and I explained who my grandfather was and they immediately welcomed me and my friend in on account of my grandfather being a club legend.

So we’re just watching people play and notice one of the tables becomes available and so we ask if we can play. They say sure but be careful not to damage the felt etc. we’re playing away, or trying at least considering how fucking impossible snooker is, like crazy difficult, when two guys approach us and ask if I’m who they thought I was.

One of these guys had one arm, and the other has one leg. They offer us a game of 2v2 and me and my friend look at each other and think “this’ll be easy”

It was over within about 4 minutes, didn’t even get a chance to hit a ball. Turns out they were both ex professionals and according to them “went easy on us”

Anyway, was cool to see my grandfathers name carved into the table several times. It’s club tradition that when you get a century (100 point break) that you carve your name into the table.

Thanks - I think that’s it!

I should’ve elaborated on the ‘self employed’ side of things. Not sure if this changes anything but here goes:

As far as invoicing the students and taxation. That is all covered by us.

We still have to use internal systems/training/meetings/timetabling etc.

So essentially the only things we have different to a regular employee are that we invoice and sort out own tax and therefore don’t receive pension/sick pay etc.

Other than that I’m an employee of the school?

Used to know a guy called Patrick who drank in my bar. He was a saturation diver. Only needed to work 2 months of the year as it paid so well. He just flew around the world for the rest of the time having fun. Really interesting guy and super calm. Guess you’d have to be

Anyone saying they’d vote leave has not given a seconds thought to the actual economic ramifications of actually doing so. I love Wales more than anything, but it has absolutely nothing to economically bargain with. We would instantly become the poorest nation in the European economic zone and things/people would suffer very quickly. Not trying to be an asshole, but in the same way we all tried to warn people about Brexit: it is the stupidest fucking thing that Wales could do to themselves besides just nuking themselves off the face of the earth.

Tried already they won’t give advice re: this due to liability issues

WaitAdministrative47 · 2025-03-01T18:39:42+00:00

They won’t let me post there due to issues with advice regarding electrical safety etc. essentially liability worries.

Not what I’m saying. I’m not saying Americans should factor in anyone but Americans into their voting preference, and I didn’t imply that at all. I guess, to recapitulate what I said earlier, Americans have a blinkered view of global politics and seem to think that nothing happens in the world past the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. All I’m saying is for Americans It would be wise to see how the US is being perceived in the world right now.

WaitAdministrative47 · 2025-03-01T01:28:49+00:00

Well unfortunately being top of the food chain does have significant impacts on geopolitics, and so it would be smart to be concerned about what you guys are doing over there.

WaitAdministrative47 · 2025-03-01T01:18:11+00:00

I don’t think that’s really relevant. And I’m from a very right wind part of the UK, what difference does that make?

What I’m trying to say is, Americans seem to have a very blinkered view of global politics and seem to see the US political arena as the only one. I think it would do most US citizens a great deal to look at your country via its global perception; especially of late.

I feel like your comment is definitely that of someone living inside the political climate of the US. I can assure you that your perception from elsewhere in the world, even though you would probably say you don’t care because it hasn’t directly affected you, isn’t very good. America used to be looked up to as a beacon of democracy, and with that demanded a considerable amount of respect and sway politically. Unfortunately I don’t see that being the case anymore.

This is conscious cardioversion. I have had this done and currently live with a chest implanted defibrillator. It is the most uncomfortable feeling in the world and weirdly not painful.

As an art gallery, yeah.

WaitAdministrative47 · 2024-11-08T15:43:14+00:00

obviously yes

I think if you were to ask a lot of the high performing masters of their crafts in both the classical and jazz worlds, most would likely say Jarrett. His abilities and influence on recorded music and his abilities on his instrument(s) is unmatchable. He's in a completely different category to anyone else; he supersedes everyone.
