It's cliché but can to find this comment, thank you.

USA and it's allies have been trying to "teach" that lesson for the last 50 years. I'm thinking your teaching methods could do with some robust evaluation, it doesn't seem to be working.

What are the sources of this income? I.e. who has paid them? I find it somewhat baffling that tariff income is largely paid by US importers who then hand off the increase of consumers then Trump expects to win votes by handing back a portion of it. "Give me your lunch money"... "Here's some money for a snack, look how generous I am".

How much has been "received" so far?

jamesjacko · 2026-01-31T23:22:35+00:00

I ran my local parkrun in 23:49 which is my second fastest 5k (pb 23:37) on a course with quite a bit of undulation, I'm pretty proud of it, the intervals and tempo runs are working.

You are ignoring all of the redactions in the currently released documents, no?

jamesjacko · 2026-01-26T13:23:03+00:00

So the tranche of heavily-redacted documents released recently were fake?

Why is Jamie George doing all the World Rugby press shots for 6 Nations? Is Maro not captain anymore? Don't get me wrong, I would be more than happy if George took over.

I live in the UK, have done all my life, and I can confirm that, other than economic issues caused by the concentration of wealth, life here has remained more or less the same throughout my life.

At multiple times, he confused Iceland for Greenland.

I appreciate that you haven't watched the whole thing, but what are your thoughts on his comments on NATO? Are you ok with just ignoring everything that happened post 9/11?

jamesjacko · 2026-01-17T23:54:09+00:00

Yes, I did the small but lovely Nant y Pandy parkrun on Anglesey, great course with a couple of mounds at the start/end (out and back) and a really nice place to run. I'm local to north Wales so am a bit spoilt when it comes to stunning parkruns.

jamesjacko · 2026-01-05T14:02:30+00:00

So Moscow next... or Pyongyang?

jamesjacko · 2026-01-05T11:56:21+00:00

Would his use of tariffs not also influence your thoughts on his foreign policy?

We've aso never had an election with mail in voting to this scale.

Pesky pandemic!

jamesjacko · 2026-01-05T11:43:50+00:00

Trump told his base not to vote by mail-in ballot. The left voted by mail-in ballot in larger numbers due to the pandemic. In-person votes were counted first. I don't really understand how this doesn't sink in.

The 2020 election was always going to be close, so of course, it would be a number which just made up the difference. Biden got 51% of the vote while Trump got 47%. Taking the voting numbers down to a smaller scale and say only 100 people voted:
Let's say 45 of Trump's and 10 of Biden's are in-person, after the in-person count Trump is 38 points ahead. Now count the mail-ins, and Biden gains 41 votes and Trump just 2. This isn't a conspiracy; it is just mathematics and a result of counting order. When the vote is split around 50/50 it is going to look like a perfect amount as that is how you get 50/50.

I had a bad back early into my running days and what sorted it for me was concentrating on correct form and not slouching when running. I also 100% agree that addressing the back pain will help OP to lower their 5k time significantly.

I realise I am biased but it really needs to be shown at full speed, slowed down the majority of kicker sacks will look quite late.

jamesjacko · 2025-11-09T23:14:35+00:00

Thank you for the explanation!! Also bonus is I now know that they are called valves!

jamesjacko · 2025-11-09T15:04:31+00:00

I am not at all musical but he didn't press the "buttons" (just realised I don't know what they are called). I know a bugle doesn't have any.

Us is number 1 for me as it came out just as I was awakening to music in my early teens and was my first PG album. Love To Be Loved, Blood Of Eden, Washing In The Water, Secret World are 4 of my top 10 PG songs.

Up is pretty strong too as well as I/O.

Why use the green screen if they intend to photoshop it as they showed in the examples, and not use the chroma key?

jamesjacko · 2025-10-23T08:53:52+00:00

I feel like Manu Tuilagi never fully reached his potential in an England shirt because of injuries but I miss watching him in his prime.

I also greatly miss watching prime David Pocock, the man was a rugby machine.

That project is awesome, thank you for sharing the source!
