Were they not assholes during the match? Blatantly ignoring the minute’s silence for the Spanish flood victims, and anti-Palestinian chants during the game were what I read. I can see how that might get people’s goat a bit

Aha, I lose. I was literally about to comment “urge? He’s the damn president, he should be doing more than urging them to look at it!” until you made me realise it wasn’t the Georgia that has to listen to him

Might as well accept it, as however you cut it you’ll eventually come to realise that there are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary, and those who don’t.

Not sure if it’s exactly what you mean, but the YouTube channel Project Kamp is a bunch of folks who’ve bought some land in Portugal to experiment with sustainable living.

They have a website, in which they house “research modules” which are basically open forums for ideas about what to do and how to do it. https://projectkamp.com/

I always do this. My gym has push-button showers, and I always do it there too. However, yesterday, my stupid brain thought “but what if you elbowed the button while towelling off?” Never done that before, but somehow did it almost immediately after I thought that, soaked my towel. Cheers brain.

Nah, mine was the 1800. Can’t really blame the router either, or solar has a weird issue for a while where power flicked on and off repeatedly, and something about that cleaned its clock

Disappointed not to find a guillotine emoji in my phone for this

He called me PED-an-tic, with the least stress on the middle syllable. It gave me immense pleasure to be able to say “erm, it’s ped-AN-tic…”

My friend once put the emphasis on the first syllable of pedantic, and correcting him was probably the single greatest joy I’ve ever felt

Fantastic, I really dislike it when I misjudge someone that hard. Also, I find his (and hopefully her) take on things calm, reasoned, and we’ll-informed

I’ve not seen an extensive amount of his stuff, but from what I have seen I wouldn’t have said he was on the sovcit side of things. Have I missed something? The few videos of his I have seen have been calm, rational breakdowns of some of the eccentricities of US politics, he seemed very well informed, to the point I though he was probably a journalist with a services background or something
