that's your cock in disguise, isn't it
Argos have a decent presence, you can find them in a lot of Sainsbury's stores and they immediately check the stock in the back for common stuff you might want.
Same with ScrewFix, but they're not usually found in Sainsbury's
well if we just allowed Thames Water to dump more toxic chemicals, it would have easily eroded fatberg before it became a problem
why can't we just let people make their own uninformed choices for their own short-sighted personal gain?
I was out in the sun all day, sweating like an orc.
I'm now back in my mother's north-facing drafty victorian house, admiring the sunshine outside, whilst wearing a coat inside.
I did this for 2 years, planned to make some wall sound proofing. Instead I binned the lot in the paper bin the day I moved out
Fatbergs have been considered as a source of fuel,[12] specifically biogas.[13] Most of the fatberg discovered in Whitechapel in London in 2017, weighing 130 tonnes (128 long tons; 143 short tons) and stretching more than 250 metres (820 ft), was destroyed, but some of it was converted into biodiesel.[7][14]
I'd be helping renewables! (joke)
Still, what a big boy that bastard must have been to behold
well sure, I just thought if the roll is wet already (e.g. it fell in, or some other liquid mishap), would flushing it down be the worst
what if I leave it in there for an hour or two, and then flush?
That's a rain cloud tangled to the front grill
I hope she wrote a tell all book somewhere and stashed it with a trusted friend to be released on event of her death
What up Richard Cronan? That looks pretty delish. Hope those potatoes are crispy soft
I'm in recovery, I can't.... I-I just... can't.

I was gonna feed them to the ducks 😢
Thank god the Republicans are ushering in a new era of children working mines

New rule: "No generative AI content"
Hear hear
Im not very in tune with my feelings, so it came as somewhat of a surprise to me during a high stress period where I had defend myself on Zoom at work under duress in front of a panel with an audience of over 200 people in the chat.... where I could feel my skin tingling and my vision starting to fuzz up at the corners, and could barely hear myself talk.
It took all that I had to breathe slowly and calmly, and a colleague later told me that I seemed fine in my presentation.
Someone can seem okay on the outside, but what theyre experiencing on the inside might be some crazy thing that just does not show.
I need a cat called Opium. For, for no reason....
I mean the latter is just minified JavaScript, compressed and base64 encoded. The hardware is the browser, which is cheating IMO
The Liverpool-based heavy-metal band Marseille performing in 2011. On the left is Neil Buchanan on lead guitar. Yes, THAT Neil Buchanan.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neil_Buchanan
Buchanan was in a heavy metal band called Marseille which formed in 1976: they were part of the new wave of British heavy metal scene, releasing four albums and six singles, touring America and performing with Judas Priest, Nazareth and Whitesnake. The band reformed in 2009 with a performance at The Cavern Club, Liverpool.
How many of you actually bought chocolate eggs this year?
They brought them out front and center at my local supermarket, and either they are selling like hotcakes that are constantly being replenished.... or literally no one is buying.
The Anglo-Portuguese treaty (signed 1373, still in effect today) was once secretly invoked in 1899. No explanation has been given.

Anybody do CCF at school?
Combined Cadet Force
I still have a hard time explaining this to people who don't know what it is.
Essentially, kids are "voluntarily" put into this thing after school where they dress up in uniforms and berets and forced to do marching drills.
You then pick whether you want to do Army/Navy/RAF, and you get to do some shooting drills. Guns are brought into the school (without ammo) and kids are shown how to shoot.
Every year each group goes on a summer camp type excursion where they get to fire real weapons or fly gliders or something.
And that's it.
Happy Birthday to all Michael's today

Sing along if you know the lyrics:
Rats, rats, we are the rats,
Celebrating yet another birthday bash!
*𝓶𝓲𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓮𝓵, it's your birthday today,*
Cake and ice cream is on it's way!
And 𝓶𝓲𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓮𝓵, has been such a good boy this year,
Open up your gifts while we all cheer!
What great tragedy do you think befell Hawkwind in 2003-2004, to allow a 2 year consecutive gap in their discography ?
Take a look: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawkwind#Discography
Every year from 1970 onwards is either an album release, or a live concert, or staggered album release, all with at maximum a 1-year hiatus.
In 2003 to 2004 something drastic of cosmic and celestial import must have happened.
How do you brake softly in a car?
Learning to drive late in life. I'm good with awareness, changing gears, interactions, roundabouts, spatial awareness, yadda yadda - a lifetime of cyclist awareness.
I just can't brake softly to save my life. It feels like I put the pedal half down, and nothing happens to the speed and then I do an inch more and suddenly the whole car locks up.
Is this normal? I just have to get used to finding a gentle breaking point somehow?
How much of this stuff is bad for you?
I'm on 2 teaspoons a day.
Any studies out there about the negative effects of it?
Is Marmite poisoning a thing?
