Yeah, the work laptop thing was probably fireable. The rest I could definitely see as coming across as annoying.
What jumped out at me though is you couldn’t afford an apartment or proper lunch but could somehow afford weed to smoke for “a great amount of time” 🤔 🤷

In no way is there anything the govt can do or has done re expense of local workers that can make it comparable to offshore cost rates.
Very simple.

I was today years old when I realised the David Walliams whose books the kids love is also the guy from Little Britain and is a nonce at the same time 😬

I missed this one before. Disagree big on this. One of my favourites of all time. Have seen it live and one of the loudest shows I’ve been to. Felt it in my core.
Can understand though how it might not be for everyone.

One of my most firmly held views:
We need a grand bargain. “Road safety advocates” get 30/40 km/h in suburban streets; in return we get a minimum 100 km/h on any dual carriageway without intersections and 130 km/h on major highways.
It’s nuts that roads and cars get safer but speed limits only ever reduce.

I think in many cases that’s because their later albums were not on indie labels so didn’t count. Eg later Dinosaur Jr albums were on a Warner label.
That there is no Pixies though is a disgrace.

There’s a weird fixation in the US on media outlets “calling” a race like it has some quasi-legitimate place in the electoral process. The votes will get counted and certified well before the Senate term ends. “Calling” means absolutely nothing. Relax.

Parenting dilemma:
Good: kid is, unprompted, practicing their writing on the weekend.
Bad: They’re writing “fuck you {sibling}” over and over

I’ve seen 20 of the redrafted 40 live. Will be 21 next week when the Foo Fighters (presumably) play Times Like These.

Saw this appropriately marked one in NY. Ugly when announced, uglier in person
(Although I do agree car makers should try going out of the box).

I’m done. None of those are close to “leftists” and all of them vote in lock-step with the rest of the party.

Do you have problems counting? Republicans have had 53 senators (which is a majority btw) since Jan 2024.

They have had a majority for last 2 years and in the past have shown willingness to smash norms (eg Garland nomination), don’t is surprising they haven’t nuked the filibuster too.
(And in no world is any current Republican a “leftist” 😂)
