Between this shitshow and Brexit, he’s got more than ever dreamed of being able to achieve in destabilizing the West. I guess we should be thankful that his capabilities in non-social media, real world conventional warfare, are shite.

Scion XB. Paid $18k for it new in 2008. Easy to drive, could park it anywhere and loads for room for hauling kids and stuff around. Just oil, brake and tyre changes when needed. Put 250k miles on it and sold it for $2k right as the second-hand car market peaked during Covid (lucky coincidence)...

Horlock resigned as manager. Bit odd, they’d just won and although they’re bottom of the table, only 1 point separates the bottom 6!

Who would’ve thought that on Thursday night a Romanian outfit who would struggle to get out of League 1, would’ve made them look good?!? Soon as they play anyone half-decent their true colours show.

*hopes for Bogshed*

This made me laugh. Not 100% accurate, but more than close enough.

Listened to it today for the first time in donkey’s years while driving around. It has aged a bit and only a couple of tracks save it from being entirely one-paced, but the naivety and freshness remains charming to me and it still puts a smile on my face. 7/10

The Velvet Underground - Rock ‘n’ Roll

A few, previously low-lying, ‘forum members’ coming out of the woodwork this last week. More fodder for the Ignore feature.

Never been and to be honest, not sure I could handle going. One thing that flabbergasts me is that everyone (that I meet in the US anyway) always thinks it’s in Germany. I’ve actually had people argue with me when I say it’s in Poland.

No, I’ve had many great times and have travelled the world with my career - been everywhere. My only regret is not jacking in my current job sooner. For a number of reasons, it went to shit around Covid-time. I’ve had to stick at it mainly for the same reason a lot of Americans stay at jobs they...

Supply and demand is a very simple concept for anyone to grasp - at its highest level. Of course, and as you point out, it doesn’t work that cleanly in reality, and the one place where the concept is totally perverted the most is in the oil & gas/ energy sector which is deeply, deeply political...

The US, at least, is running backwards, headlong into the days of The East India Company and other, Empire-ruling, public/ state enterprises from three hundred years ago. This is all entirely deliberate, of course. I’m awaiting the day Amazon, X etc have their own security forces that morph into...

“The ancient ideal of excellence…” ?!? One might almost say, “Ayran”

Chickens originate from South East Asia. Coming over here, providing a substantial basis for our food supply chain.

An Eagles-Chiefs Superbowl

Great catch for the TD.

I said this on another forum recently, three months into the year we’ll be at “Show me your papers” territory and it won’t be blond (ok, now silverish) haired, blue-eyed white guys like me being asked.
