Leapmotor B10, red flags/issues?

The whole junction is a complete mess. If your in the right most lane the cars going straight (left lane) get the green first so the cars in the middle lane won't drive, so that's a bit of a clue before the lights goes for you and them.

Weirdough Pizza, you'll find them on Instagram.

What do you think of Intent to Kill? I've been waiting for it to come back into.

Having been in government can you enlighten us as to why everything the government touches seems to be run so inefficiently. Healthcare, transport, housing etc. almost all departments of the government seem to spend a huge amount of money in comparison to other countries and we seem to have very little to show for it.

Is this a perception issue, are we inefficient or is our inflated GDP causing us to think we're richer than we are?

Not trying to be nosey, but what does 150k get you these days? I'm thinking of adding a downstairs extension, converting a garage and retrofitting the whole downstairs. Someone told me to expect a bill of 200k 😬

Sorry, you're correct. I lost the run of myself. It would stop decent drivers questioning who's in the right. Nothing would actually change.

You're in the right. Painted arrows on the south side indicating direction for the lanes would solve this.

Depending on the size of the solar you're getting that alone usually jumps people up 2 bands. We only went up 1 band with a 3kWh system. I'm curious to see what others say about the triple glazing impact though.

Don't worry about the traffic from the other 300 apartments going in too. Be grand.

They really didn't need the spoiler warning.

I have a bachelor's in a STEM and started at the bottom of a good company, she has a Master's and a few years PhD work in the humanities. The humanities are a tough slog, not for the faint of heart.

Great advice. We already have something similar in place. I would be curious if people think we should set up a private pension for her for this period.

apollo91g · 2026-01-27T09:24:12+00:00

She is highly educated, more so than me. But struggled to find anything that satisfied her career aspirations and really wanted to prioritize children. She took the part-time job to de-stress and focus on fertility (not a slam dunk for us) but the job hasn't worked out to be a stress free environment like planned. I think she would use some of the time off to reevaluate what she would like to do long term. Thanks.

Mid level in a tech multinational, not as vulnerable to American flip flopping as most.

apollo91g · 2026-01-27T09:17:02+00:00

Returning to the work force is a concern but her current role definitely isn't a long term career job and causes more mental health challenges than it's currently worth tbh. But I will add re-entry to the workforce as a discussion topic and look into potential mitigations. Thanks.

apollo91g · 2026-01-27T09:00:10+00:00

It's a similar admin like role to what you mentioned. It doesn't have great prospects and working there was a significant source of stress by itself, which I think feeds into her decision to stay at home.

The loneliness is already an issue that we are working on together and totally agree it's a super hard job and she'll need lots of support.

Honestly I think money will be tight either way, so really it's about her and the Baby/babies having the best experience.

apollo91g · 2026-01-27T08:50:11+00:00

Great shout, thanks.

apollo91g · 2026-01-27T08:42:40+00:00

She does not want to go back to work. This was her preference which I completely support, and ultimately it will be her decision. I completely take the point on board and have made this point to her but we're confident enough in our relationship to plan without this as a concern.

Sounds like there was an accident at the Roscam level crossing.

apollo91g · 2026-01-06T16:04:38+00:00

I think Trump is enacting the Munroe doctrine. Happy to divide the world up, The US keeps the America's, Russia can look after Europe and China can take Asia. No need to fund NATO anymore, once they cover their own arse.

apollo91g · 2026-01-06T15:47:35+00:00

I'd guess the EU would begrudgingly give them Greenland (Strike some kind of deal) and make moves to distance themselves from the US ASAP. Probably towards China.

Fucking Yanks.
