As an ex hobby store owner, it would be fun every day if you could choose every customer, but for every awesome one there is the lonely miserable guy with extreme halitosis that just won't feck off after buying his one 50 cent brush for the week.

I don't even live in the US and I am all prepped up, not sure what is coming, but something is coming, this way I can just stay home and ignore the world.

The life and works of Ronnie Barker.

Or the Wolfsburg built air cooled VWs, 1945 on.

Ha, ha, ha, including transfolx and paying them? that would because Christmas miracle, the only way we ever get a token seat at the table is if we do it for free. And then will be ignored by the rest of table who are paid to be there.

Bingo,trans rights are just step one to remove all women's and LGBT+ rights. Easiest target first, they even have TERFs helping, next up is them.

I was looking for a fine nit comb on Amazon for a cat that still has fleas despite treatment, there has to be something better than a bath, 700 sales in a month, 9 reviews, all people making sure everyone reading knew it was for their pets, the stigma with getting nits is still massive, even online.

I have a feeling the more trans people he knows he has pissed off the more he will double down on this, he has ignored all evidence so far, this is about discrimination, not evidence based treatment.

Israel, pre emotively invading or attacking every country on earth to "protect themselves".

Result, making everyone your enemy whatever they felt before.

You will never get any editorial control, or get paid. There are always enough people wanting their alloted 15 minutes that they will find someone however many red flags there are or how exploitative.

I actually know a couple of researchers on these kinds of shows, their advice? Never go on TV.

90% of trans people like Pizza, pizza consumption and people seeking treatment for being trans issues have both risen significantly in the last 50 years, the evidence is overwhelming, they are effin' idiots in Washington.

They are only unsafe and banned for trans kids, they are still be deemed safe and legal for non trans kids.

The stupidity is mind boggling.

I'm a cabinet maker, I could build the most awesome book shelf in the world, except I have books piled all over the place and cheap arse bookshelves in every room.

I have been a lifelong Labour voter, admittedly I have voted tactically when needed. But I am done with the party, their treatment of Corbyn was horrific, now such utter betrayal to pander to the worst of the right wing culture wars anti woke wankers. I have no pride in Labour.

Every remain voter voted for the exact same thing, every Brexit voter voted for something different, the rich disaster capitalists on the right of the Tory party were the only ones who got what they wanted, and then even they fucked it up completely by infighting.

If I start a company that makes to knitted toilet paper covers, I issue 1 million shares, sell 1 share to my mom for ยฃ10, I know have a ยฃ10 million dollar company.

With space X it is creative accounting, Starlink is in profit, cool, but space X launch 70 or so rockets for them for free.

I cook with butter mostly, one of mine has discovered that if i put the wok out, I tend to throw a knob of butter in first while I prep the food on the island with my back turned, they can be so silent.

Nah, terrible margins, big overheads, customers waste your time and buy online for the really big purchases, the nicest customers by an absolute mile were the plastic kit builders. Sales in January were horrific, we would do $100 weeks in January, not profit, combined sales over 6 days.

Someone posted on my village Facebook group the had lost a kitten, I went for my morning walk, found it, brought it home, messaged her, fed it , it played with my mob for a bit and she was over after work to pick it up. Her children were happy.

Complete story arc with no mystery or drama.

I got invited to a Christmas eve meal, i host others often, but this is the first time someone invited me for 10 years. Yeah, I know they want some furniture making for a good price, but still.

I mostly shop in charity shops, I have most things I need already and as I live in the middle of nowhere, shop once every 4 weeks, so not much to buy.

Electric is 600 a year, water 200, rates 700, insurance 350, transport 80. Food makes up most of the rest. Maybe 300 discretionary spending.

Mine was a cassette, so it would be played in the car, over and over and over again, untll my parents wished they had used that condom.

I spend about 3 grand a year, 20 grand would cover all my bills for nearly 7 years, I would call that substantial. I own my own ultra energy efficient home and have zero debts/ no longer drive/ grow much of my food/ live alone, why I can live on so little.

I had a client a couple of decades ago built his perfect library, converted barn, 600 meters of books, custom made book shelves, two reading areas with sofas and armchairs. Full glass windows each end for the views.

His wife died before they moved in. The best library is the one you have now.....

Very little can make me dislike Macron more than I do, but sucking up to the Cheeto in chief will do that for sure.

We don't eat frogs legs often, there is no meat on them, snails are delicious in garlic butter though.

Just found a new company that does home food deliveries from the Netherlands, lots of things that i normally cannot find in my country, so far I have had 4 deliveries in 2 weeks as I restock my cupboards, i think i am getting addicted to food shopping online.
