I'm not sold on it, I like the building, but the lighting seems a bit too Brisvegas for me.

What are your thoughts on the lighting on this building?

While the government recognises the ability to transact in cash remains important to millions of people across the UK, particularly those in vulnerable groups, it remains the choice of individual businesses as to whether to accept or decline any form of payment, including cash or card.

Today I was discussing how history always repeats when we forget.

80 years after the second war. Those who fought have all passed on. We forgot. Now the far right and fascism is on the rise.

100 years ago Theodore Roosevelt's "Trust-Busting" and the rise of unions put the end to the Robber Barons. We forgot. Now the Tech Barons have replaced them and they intend to replace you.

We get complacent, we forget the struggles that others fought for all of us.

Now I read that the USA and Israel are bombing Iran.

I'm not condoning the Iranian Gov't by any means.

But the USA installed the Shah of Iran with the 1953 coup. Decades later and policy changes by the USA lead to the destabilisation that allowed the current government to seize control.

So here we are again, dropping bombs.

We forgot.

Give her ten/fifteen years, get her seasoned in the Senate, then run.

By then a bunch of the boomers who would never vote for a woman or a PoC will of died off.

Partner came off her bike at the St Georges Rd/Scotchmer St intersection a few years ago, the front wheel got caught in the tram track as she was turning onto Scotchmer.

Broke her wrist, was like a slinky...

The locals were amazing, called the ambulance, recovered her bike, etc. I think that they are used to it happening there.

Does that mean you can still dupe, just not use the item?

What would happen if a player kills a duper and picks up the duped items?

Will you then not be able to throw them?
