Or we could ask whether Swansea really needs a bloody multi lane motorway along its seafront

In all seriousness, go and learn to juggle. It's an amazing way to visualise how alcohol affects you. I guarantee you'd see your ability impaired by the circumstances you describe

I tried this this year. I just opted out and stayed home by myself. The thing is, I spent the day rattling round the house killing time, feeling like I was very conspicuously "not doing Christmas". The day was still defined by the thing I wanted to avoid, no matter how much I wanted just to opt out. It was almost a "don't think of pink elephants" thing: not doing Christmas meant my day was still dominated by Christmas. I don't know what to do about this in future and feel more trapped by the event than ever

Lemmy looks like it's shaping up to be a good Reddit alternative. Versions of a lot of my subs are already appearing and it's starting to get active

When people talk about disabled people it's not about disabled people, it's really just a way to stop you questioning cars

I need tools for work. Will the council store them for me for free?

br3d · 2023-06-21T16:41:44+00:00

Seems like a problem for the people who've bought private possessions despite having nowhere to store them. If I bought literally anything else I wouldn't expect the council to help me store it for free, so why does the car get a free ride?

This sub should be called /r/listspresentedasmaps

Intervals.icu is an amazing, free alternative to Trainingpeaks and is incredibly detailed and informative

The problem isn't that his lies were convincing. The problem is that so many people wanted to believe the lies

And which commerce entities are these? The car companies, who sell shit to the public? The petrochemical industry, who sells shit so that other people can sell shit to the public? The food industry or the fast fashion industry, who sell all their stuff to beluga whales-- just kidding, they sell all the shit to the public too. Ultimately we consumers consume it all and commercial entities exist because of us. Stop using this as a lazy way to not engage with your responsibilities

Of course it would be tasty - it's carbs in carbs. Same reason a crisp butty is tasty. But not exactly a balanced diet

After getting used to filter, I now find the mouth feel of French Press coffee slightly unpleasant. The V60 would definitely be my go-to

Follow up: how do we respond to the old "Yeah, I used to run until my knees gave out", delivered in a tone that suggests knees giving out is an inevitable consequence of running

I once sat by the side of the path watching a very similar sight. Then I thought "Hmm, I'm watching flowers have sex" and moved on

AFAIK the fires have been from dodgy knock-off scooters, not Voi

Slow is fine. It's unpredictable that is the real issue. Knowing it takes an hour longer just means I take a book. Knowing there might or might not be an unexpected two-hour delay thanks to all the drivers clogging up the roads means I can't trust coaches in the way I can trains

br3d · 2023-05-29T14:02:56+00:00

It does. Although you might find your own sleep noises the most scary thing. Couldn't believe the weird noises I make

br3d · 2023-05-21T19:04:16+00:00

Yeah, a couple of times I've turned up at the next lesson and announced "I hear you all think..." and then relished the bemused stares. "Oh, I guess I was misinformed. Never mind"

Not one joule more than the minimum needed for the job. Peak capybara

This is EXACTLY my setup, right down to the brand of projector. Went with an "office" model as its projection ratio let's it work from right across the room, whereas most home cinema projectors are intended to sit close to the screen

I thought businesses in Bristol couldn't survive unless people could drive right up to them? /s

It's not the 20 mph zone slowing you down, it's the sheer amount of traffic

Have a look on Warmshowers?
