Still waiting for the "shopping site that measures everything in g or ml so you don't have to mentally carry a decimal point and ALSO has an always-on 'cheapest per g' setting"

On a similar note: this video on high food prices in the UK really boiled my piss

Hopefully @zackpolanski.bsky.social can add regulation against This Sort Of Thing to his list of very good ideas

"Probably because of woke", he muttered to himself, uncomfortably unsure whether he was being serious or not

Just watched Raiders of the Lost Ark on ITV, cos it's been a long while, and was very nearly outraged by the censorship. The bit where the big nazi gets his head asploded by the propellor? And the little creepy nazi gets his face melted off by the ark? Gone. Both unforgivably cut out.

And this one for Green Tomato Chutney. I'll happily stick my neck out and say this is the greatest chutney in the world, IF you can find green tomatoes anywhere. Also maybe up the chilli a tad

Just so its somewhere outside my phone, I'm going to post a couple of family recipes. This one for "Minna's Chicken".
The Broccoli almost makes up for the half-ton of lard IMO

Oh, yeah that's harder to film

What I'm saying is "just film that scene" and it'll be fine. It'll work. Viewers can imagine their own plot either side, and it'll be better than whatever YOU invented.

I once tuned into a sitcom half way through that I *thought* was a sketch show, and it worked perfectly on those terms until like the 4th scene when characters returned, and I felt cheated, like the original art I thought I was witnessing was merely formulaic.

Yeah I never made it past Level 1. Did it even have levels?

Nice. Friend of mine converted an old ambulance into a camper van, and wanted to give it a name. I came up with Vanny DeVito, but alas that's the peak of my insensate object naming prowess.

Ok you lot, I want every kitchen appliance highbrowed up by sunset. Beat Ovens etc.

Yungdaught has done a joke. The punchline is so obvious I'm not going to write it down, but because its so obvious, the setup alone got a big laugh from me.

Ahem...

You can't access *specific live streams*. You make it sound like you can't watch anything without a license

Re the Greens: if you read the original article, looks like he actually succeeded! Imagine that! As PM he could do a state broadcast and make ALL our tits bigger!

But I believe much of this is down to political pressure. If we can call for a new charter giving govt less power over them, they'd much improve. But even now, they're MUCH better than Fox

Its not silly, and not mandatory *unless* you use iPlayer or watch/record Live TV. If all you do is watch Youtube or Netflix etc you don't have to pay it!

I fully admit their coverage of trans issues is shockingly biased though. And the range of political ideas they allow is skewed rightwards.

06.03.2026 12:20 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

You're not forced to pay for it. Just don't watch Live TV or iPlayer

We'll miss it when its gone. TV and radio without adverts is worth the money all by itself

Watch this clip and promise to yourself you'll read at least a chapter of a book today.

Has politics *always* been full of ruthless, lying, corporate cocksucking blowhards with barely a shred of ethical reasoning, or is it just getting worse for some reason?

When was the last time a politician seriously talked about removing homelessness? Removing child poverty? Removing food poverty? Removing heat poverty? On workers being paid a fair wage that doesnt rely on in-work benefits?
