Shyrka posted:Wait, I say Edin-burra and I live here! That wikipedia clip is fun because if you focus you can make it turn into "Edin-bruh" or "Edin-buruh". As the official decider of edinburgh pronounciation because I'm me and I'm always right i declare both correct so long as you make it as difficult to tell as this guy did. Definitely more correct than that youtube guy who is leaning more to "Edin-brah". i mean it's still entirely understandable but one has to find some reason to feel smarter than foreigners when all other evidence says otherwise

I wonder if these parties are actually enjoyable. Is anyone there actually having a good time or are they just gritting their teeth while trying to make sure as many influential people remember their names. I guess they probably have oodles of cash to spend on drugs and circus animals or whatever the gently caress but a shite crowd's still a shite crowd at the end of the day, surely e: i am in the drawstring camp.

OwlFancier posted:And that is true of columned horrors too, it remains my abiding impression of Edinburgh, being that it is a city that loving hates its inhabitants because the entire architectural scheme of the city center is "not for you, gently caress off" this has been my general impression of the city centre of glasgow, and given the general decisions by the city council over the last few decades it's probably not wrong. at least edinburgh has a park in the centre, even if it spends most of its time as a lovely Underbelly market or a horrible mud plain for weeks after the market leaves also jesus christ i was hoping this was just some kind of hallucination from that time i listened to the podcast while recovering from a migraine but sadly they are still trying to build the thing https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/mar/26/plastic-t-rex-vs-rare-beetles-disney-on-thames-plan-london-devastate-wildlife quote:The park, called the London Resort, would be built on the Swanscombe peninsula on the Thames, near Gravesend, where it would cover land equivalent to 136 Wembley stadiums and would include themed rides, a water park, conference venues, hotels and a shopping centre.

My personal theory is that they simply don't care enough about refugees of any kind to have anything but the most bare-bones operation that is liable to make these exact kinds of cock-ups, safe in the knowledge that their voter base won't care when they happen. So combining both worlds of massive incompetence that should make them unfit for office and massive inhumanity that should make them unfit for office. con +5%

keep punching joe posted:Glad I live in a country that uses STV for local elections. the actual answer will depend on how many rounds the counts go to and which candidates actually last to the later rounds, but generally if the election was solely between the remaining parties and you would still go out and vote for one of them to keep the others out then putting a number makes sense. people looking at the results to measure a party's support will rarely look beyond first preferences and final seat counts so it's unlikely to be counted as an enthusiastic endorsement of a party.
