I know it's the tories and it's all a grift. It's more about creating an indentured servitude class like the black mirror episode with the treadmills than it is about helping prisoners break the cycle. If you can get a job while being a criminal let's make more criminals. Etc etc. However regardless of that I still massively want criminal justice reform and all the people online crowing about the 'gall' of prisoners being offered jobs, as if once you do a crime you're not human anymore, really does gently caress me off. It's the same lovely people who screamed on my local Facebook to call 999 at some local kids playing knock and run and nicking a wheelie bin. Yell about them being scroats and demand life altering incarceration for them also nicking a "pink spider and a skeleton from a garden" It was a cool skeleton. But they put it in the wheelie bin with the spider for a hat on the lawn of the person who was screaming about calling the cops to their school (which they did last week too). Which was loving funny as they're now yelling about death threats.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Huh. Wikipedia is giving false information. I always remember my mate turning to me as we walked to the bus stop to go to school and saying "You know what? Can't be bothered" and stepping out directly into the path of a bus. Now admittedly it had only just pulled away from the stop and he cushioned the impact by pushing off the bumper with his foot but he still got thrown a couple of feet and landed on his arse. Laying in the road he pointed to me and said "Right, you're my witness - I just got hit by a loving bus, tell them I'm not coming in" before stepping up, dusting himself off, giving a merry wave to the (somewhat animated) driver of the bus, and sauntering off towards home. The only reaction from my form teacher when I passed on the news was "Well, I hope he was wearing clean underwear" - in fairness he was the type of kid who was as likely to step out in front of a bus on a whim as he was to lie about it to get a day off school.

Never understood that 'clean underwear' thing because for sure if you get in the sort of accident which ends up with medics looking at your knickers, they aren't going to be in any sort of fit state regardless of how clean they were when you set off on your day's activities. Your mate was stupid. I got knocked by a car about 5 years ago (luckily it was going slow) because I was stewing in anger over something and not looking where I was going. Entirely my fault. Luckily apart from a bruised elbow I was ok. The driver was extremely shaken though.

I got hit by a car as a kid. Totally my fault, was out racing bikes with friends, didn't look as I crossed the main road & I t-boned a car (at least that's how I think it happened, I have no recollection between listening but not looking at the junction & waking up lying on the road. Apparently did a very impressive somersault over the bonnet). My left leg was just a big bruise for 2 months afterwards. Somehow I got away with a chipped tooth & the world's worst dead leg but it totalled my bike which must've been less than 6 months old, that was a gutter. Got out of school sports day so it wasn't all bad.

I rode my bike full-tilt into a van that had pulled out while I was looking sideways to chat to my friend on his bike, fortunately the driver saw me and hit the brakes in time so I clattered into him but he was down to about 1 mph at that point. Which was lucky because my own velocity was quite sufficient to wipe me the gently caress out lmao. My mate ran home to fetch my granny but, being as this was Norn Iron, he knew what the bigger issue was - he assured her, presumably to defend me from getting a hiding, "don't be worrying the bike's alright". Had mega bruising but nothing worse. e; ^ Hah! Nice timing on our "accident on a bike" stories

https://twitter.com/RussInCheshire/status/1452635424992682001 I initially misread the second tweet as the EU rightfully banning UK water due to the piss and faeces, but no, we are going to banning EU mineral water to promote our... <checks notes>.... toilet water.

Yeah will only really affect the niche fancy mineral water drinkers out there, volvic will still be available. Or the tap if you live in Scotland.

Bottled water is pretty dumb at the best of times, importing it from different countries is even worse, a ban on Evian would actually be good imo

The only justification for bottled water is where it works out much cheaper to make mains water good enough for washing and bathing and watering your vegetables but it's not exactly potable. And in those cases it's usually glass carboys on a bottle return basis at the local store rather than branded 'spring' waters in small plastic bottles. And also not usually the goal for a developed country but we'll get there

Maybe in return we can get that spy wife lady that drove on the wrong side of the road and killed a young motorcyclist before scarpering under dubious diplomatic immunity.

Jaeluni Asjil posted:An even earlier example from 1988 ish is when yours truly who was the only person working on a particular extremely large project had a file on her desk entitled "Run Over By A Bus" file where my innermost secrets of how to do the job were kept with regularly updated notes. I had to write up an enormous wiki when I left my job at Sophos which was basically 'the care and maintenance of ancient commercial Unix machines' since I was the only bugger who knew how to do that, company wide, there. Didn't stop various recruiters sending me job offers for months after for what was very clearly my old job; they can't have had much luck because a few months later Sophos dropped support for HP-UX (the most obscure of the three commercial Unixes we supported) altogether.
