Your reminder that no, things weren't uniformly "better" in the past - YOU were better in the past. Younger, stronger, cuter, more hopeful, less cynical, fewer responsibilities. Don't confuse your aging with the whole world going to shit.

I love the look of this game so I bought it. Looking forward to first play!

Imagine sitting beside this guy at a party.

"But does it scale?!?"

A red waistcoat? A large and slightly floppy hat? No shoes...?

They need action figures. I mean they ARE already action figures.

Now THAT'S what I was hoping for! Or "Look it's fuckin' Hubba Bubba!" Something along those lines.

See? So many. I was a fish in a barrell...

The number of things I've done for a nipple and a wok...

After living a few years in carefree Sweden I was visiting Dublin with pink hair about 20 years back and literally the first van passing me contained a man who yelled "Fucking pink hair!" out the window which I always felt was a bit lackluster. I mean, some on, surely there was a better one at hand

Well done @nopunincluded.com for cracking 100k youtube subs! Since I'm a sucker for slowly increasing numbers, I've been watching the tally creep up for weeks. But now my watch is ended. (Follow and subscribe them, they are fun!)

I've started using them as a way to find the hotels, and then I just go just book directly on the hotels website. Prices are usually similar and they're a lot bloody nicer.

This is literally not a thing in Sweden either. Which "Scandinavians" did they talk to, I wonder...?

Running a country by Eye of Sauron.

And by grounding planes Trump ends up doing something for climate change through sheer stupidity and incompetence.

They seem to be producing them on an industrial scale.

DVD box of Cosmos

I have just the one currently. Until my next binge...

I wonder if playing on the ferry to France but not getting off the boat counts as a EU tour...

I find it bizarre that some people's default reaction to being really really drunk is to send dick pics and death threats, instead of what I do which is ordering Cosmos on DVD again even though I already have it and lack a DVD player.

Assuming there are chickens.

How on earth is investment in a proven tech like renewables "a bet"? Weird way to look at it.

Finally! Nice work!

Large pot with mixed fruit ready to boil.

Mince pie kick-off! All manner of raisins, cranberries, dates, apples, lemons, oranges. Boil slowly, add brandy, put in sealed glass jars in fridge. Suet or fat, I discovered, is not needed. Which is handy, since suet is hard to get, and the meat-free one is full of palm oil. Roll on Christmas!

I wonder if the English famous / infamous fits into this pattern too ... Also flammable (can burn) and inflammable (can burn but probably wasn't meant to)

4 ads, the second showing a pink cushion like thing with a hole in the middle.

Shoes, gaping butthole cushion, dresses, sweater -- wait, what?

I am hovering on the edge of a changeover but what's holding me back is Da Vinci Resolve which I cannot live without and does not appear to play very well with Linux.

American really needs to sort out its use of "red" and "blue" when it comes to politics, and join the rest of the world. "He's a red!" and "It's a red state!" should not mean opposite things.

It's very exciting! Doing hourly refreshes over here...

I got it too. I dumbly responded. We chatted. Turns out they couldn't actually tell me anything about my book and just wanted to sell me marketing services. Weird, huh?

AD - Top beauties are waiting for real man

"But which beauties...?"
"Top. Beauties."
