Was season 2 any good?

It was fine. Didn't try to emulate the successes of the first season and does a few cool things but ultimately isn't essential viewing. It's a shame we won't get season 3 though.

e: If you count the movie (which you shouldn't) Breaking Bad had 63 episodes. That's as many as three 21s.

Is he the one that got fired from the Graun because he made a joke about the amount of money the US gives to the IDF?

Yup

His editor got told to demand he apologise immediately, which he did, then they fired him anyway

They justified by saying that since he was an independent contractor they weren't firing him because he was never technically an employee in the first place

I really want to dislike Nathan J Robinson but I'll read one of his articles and think "...yeah hes alright actually". He might be posh and faking being English, but he has made sacrifices; hes read several books written by Obama era White House staffers and writers. You know, the sort of person that would go to to write for Vox or appear on Pod Save America. I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

He is English. Born here and spent his early years here and tried (and failed) to keep the accent over in the US.

I only remember this because my classmate was national top 10, and he apparently would've scored highest for the year had he not added 5+7 = 13

he went to cambridge and has fb photos parachuting into oil dictatorships so I'm 90% certain he's mi6 now. The Wrong UKMT.

Customs isn't the only problem. Some companies are just out-right no longer delivering to the UK. I had this happen last week: Small artist has a run of vinyl prints. Publishing company promotes it on twitter. I go to buy and can't find UK in the lengthy "Country" drop down list for shipping details. I asked them what's up and this was the response;

https://twitter.com/STSPhonoCo/status/1367976356911460352

As stated in the tweet, there was an alternative supplier to go through so in the end, still got my record. However, only some of their catalogue is available through this supplier.

I got level 5 in math year 6 and then they asked me to take a level 6, and I couldn't do the first question. I felt really loving dumb, but looking back it's stuff the school had never even mentioned the existence of to me, it was just bait for children with private tutors.

I am dumb but not because of that test.

this is pretty much the impression i got, that the private schools could spend vast resources training up the kids in this specific kind of maths fuckery, but every so often the odd state school kid managed to be such a massive maths prodigy that they had half a chance. which I was not, as it turns out

My experience was that the first level was more or less solvable with GCSE/A-level maths following the curriculum, but the higher level (I think it was called the Kangaroo Challenge or something?) required you to know these weird maths tricks that you either would have had to study for specifically or be the kind of maths nerd who knows a lot of numerical and geometric identities off-hand. My school at least didn't do any practice tests or additional teaching for those challenges so I had a similar experience of doing well at the first stage and then wondering what the gently caress half the questions in the second stage even meant.

I don't want to appoint myself the arbiter of what's good thought and practice here, because it is very much not my place as a big white cis het man to speak on women's lives. So I wont. But the discussion is necessary I think, because the current situation is not good for a lot of people!

Angry lesbian here, in my experience the majority of men are decent humans and would never feel the need to chirp in with “not all men” because they already know we are not talking about them. Same logic applies to Cis, straight and white.

Shopping trolly problem. There are no rules or laws that say you have to put your shopping trolly in the bay, there are no signs anywhere and there is nothing stopping you from just leaving it in the parking spot next to your car. But the vast majority of people do take the time and energy to put it back where it belongs for absolutely no personal gain at all.

The kind of person who just leaves it anywhere is the reason why we invented rules and laws.
