Norman! The economists are outside again. They keep closing the libraries and eyeing next door's jack russells, I don't like the look of them Norman.

I was reading an article a few days ago where our president met up with Boris to talk about Ukraine and the joint expeditionary force (JEF) and my first thought was, couldn't they have found an acronym that spelled NORMAN instead?

If pringles get opened in my house the cat just loses her poo poo in the same way that she does when the Dreamies come out. Also went insane over dried kelp, so I assume it's the salt that they're craving.

I once left a bag of chips (crisps to you) open on the floor as a teenager (you do that as a teenager) and when got home from school I saw the bag of chips with the rear side of a cat sticking out of it.

So that bit when Labour actually led the polls for a while and Boris was looking like he was hanging on by his fingernails, that just blew over?

The real answer is that they both acted in a lovely way.

I don't know why people have such a problem conceiving that this could be true. It's the same poo poo as we've seen with Putin Vs. Ukraine/The West.

"But who's right!?!" Nobody. Everybody involved is poo poo.

Apparently D&D and CSPAM where switched on the front page, I've been surfing SA all day (particularly at work) and never noticed until now, I guess because I navigate the forums by typing in the forumId in the URL instead. Faster to type 46, or 210.

Yeah, my local police station was shut years ago. It is across the road from a large supermarket which has a lot of problems with large groups of youths behavung anti-socially, even chasing adults in broad daylight if facebook is to be believed. I have a feeling if that police station was at least properly open and fully staffed that wouldn't be happening.

The sad reality is in this area, crime is rife and there are probably 2 or 3 police officers on duty to cover quite a large area at night. The best bit is the truly braindead think this is Labour's fault.

That's pretty typical when you have a society with large wealth inequality. It's caustic on society and if self-perpeuating. I am always struck by the general level of uh "background criminality" or lack of trust in society that other people seem to casually tolerate and deal with.

In the opposite of london and trains, I drove 20 km along a muddy forest road that looked a lot like those muddy roads russian tanks got trapped in last night. Could go like 30 kph at most. Spring and frost heaving is really bad on gravel roads.

I drive a car to work because there's no bus line and I live rurally and my work place is even more so. But it's basically 25km of straight mostly empty road and where I live & work I don't have to worry about parking or parking fees or stuff like that, hell I don't even lock the car... So I don't really have an antagonistic view towards cars, their main issue for me is they cost a lot of money. It sure is more stressful driving in a city though.

No nuts here, just birds chirping. I was sitting at the firepit behind my shed and started recording, it has a kinda ASMR vibe. Finally the snow is starting to yield and spring is here for real. My shed survived the winter too, now I need to work on getting it some panelling.

Arm John McDonnell.

John McDonnell was one of those I saw publically turn on Corbyn for his brexit stance and forced him to adopt a new brexit stance with a new referendum, that I believe was a big mistake and cost him the 2019 election. Shoulda let Corbyn do his thing... So I don't think he's all that great a choice either.

MOT is every year here and 70 euros minimum. I have driven long enough that I remember it was 40-50 FIM which in euro should be around 7-10 euros. Of course that was before we privatized the MOT.

Dumb question, has anyone ever bought an electric duster for their PC? I really hate buying the propellant ones as they always cost a shitload and never last, but the electric ones seem to be like £50?!

Also, same question, sit up pillows for bed! I am old and poo poo and sitting in bed wrecks my everything, but I like bed as it usually has cats and is a calm room that contains my partner who I like being around.

I use a compressor myself, but maybe not suitable for everyone, it's the best tho. They some cheap small ones nowadays but no idea if they are any good.

I mean if you live somewhere where the ground does not move your entire life, it suddenly starting to do that is probably very disconcerting.

I've had a couple of barely perceptible ones and it is genuinely extremely weird.

Plus depending on where you live, being afraid that british housing stock is going to kill you doesn't need to be limited to when there is an earthquake happening.

Feels safe to live where I do, the earths crust is only thicker in two places in the world, the andes mountains and the himalayas.
