Just come back from a pub quiz. My moment of glory? How many countries are there in the United Nations?
Just instantly and casually write 193 down, nothing to see here.

This band I'm going to see, they're playing in England too this coming weekend, but tickets for that festival are the same price as tickets for French festival + ferry to France... and the French...
It's so bad I'm fleeing to France.
For a few days. To see a reggae band.
Au revoir.
As distasteful as that is, presumably the other lady is a relative? They're both grinning like it's a completely normal photo op.
I'm sorry but if I were to die, and having me buried in a parking lot provided financial benefit to the family I've left behind, I wouldn't feel disrespected. I'd feel nothing because I'm dead, but...
Holy shit was that the voice of reason from Oskar?
He's doing exactly what Labour did. Labour divert funds to Labour regions, the Tories come along and redivert them to Tory regions. Labour don't care about Tory voters, and the Tories don't care...
Yeah, don't feel like you have to tell the whole story or anything.

I mean, idk about dark matter, it has always felt like a mathematical hack to explain gravity as we observe it. So what, now it's also a hack to explain angular momentum as we observe it?
Dark...
This would be a reasonable viewpoint if Sunak was a chump. But he's not. He's clearly a very intelligent and charismatic man, at least that's the impression he appears to be giving those who meet...
This is absolutely ridiculous. If the Conservative party were truly racist, then no way in hell would they let a black man come close to the leadership.
That's fair, but on the flip side,...
Sure, but if you're saying that the black person should think in a particular way because he's black, you're applying expected behaviour to that person because of their skin colour. When you say "My...
Interesting fact - according to observation, there are 7% more galaxies rotating in one direction than the other.
Implication - the universe already had angular momentum when it was born. But...
I've only got an inside view from one of these party member meetings. It's a very small sample size, obviously, so you can't take much from it. But it seems that Sunak is putting to bed any doubts...
Some Tory voters are racist. That's because Tory voters are a large group of different people. Fun fact - some West Ham Utd fans are paedophiles, and some ginger haired people are actual Nazis....
A relative of mine went to a Tory meeting yesterday where Truss and Sunak were meeting party members. Sunak is winning the party members over, he's "natural", "deeply intelligent", "charismatic"...
I'd say there's a lot more corruption than this. It's not in their personal economic interests. They're invested in these companies, in the technology. The problem with wind and solar is they aren't...
40.2 at Heathrow
Never a big fan of readings at airports, surely they act as a heat trap.
Provisional measurements say we broke our record before noon, 39.1 and rising.
So what's the agenda? Pass the buck to us? We argue like twats about heatwaves while they continue to make a shit ton of money burning something we probably don't even need to burn?
I don't...
A lot of people are naturally suspicious, call it paranoid if you prefer, of governments and their agendas. That in itself is perfectly understandable, and this phenomenon went full batshit after...
Well that was the UK's third hottest day on record at 38.1, forecast says hotter tomorrow before it cools down on Wednesday. It was lovely this morning but this afternoon was oppressive, it's still...
41 Celsius is 105.8 in voodoo nonsense.
We've got a heatwave coming, they're predicting 41 Celsius, our all time record is 38.7. We're not built for this. Our train lines will buckle, roads will start melting, we generally don't have air...
No. A few years ago, England (population 56,000,000) lost to Iceland (population 345,000). China plays football and they're really not very good at it. India and Indonesia suck too.
Having a big...
