Michael, but he prefers Mikey

How is this not a meme template already?

The Expanse. So much going on in that opening, plus it updates depending on what’s happening in the series.

Slugabed I’ve used before, usually to describe me!

To paraphrase a shower thoughts post from a few weeks back though (not mine), why is going to bed early seen as pious but staying in bed late seen as slothful when the net result is the same amount of time spent in bed?

Sounds awesome, I love his writing.

Side note: If it could not involve any helmets like the one pictured which some lights into the eyes of the occupant that would be great! One of my constant irritations when I’m watching sci fi.

And there was me, a Brit, wondering why you were posting this today rather than 09-Mar…

So we do care about people on sinking boats in the Mediterranean?

What part of this don’t you understand? If two turbines is good, and three turbines is better, obviously five turbines would make us the best fucking wind platform that ever existed. Comprende? We didn’t claw our way to the top of the wind platform game by clinging to the two-turbine industry standard. We got here by taking chances. Well, five turbines is the biggest chance of all.

Well, I’m not sure about that buddy

The fourth item on the list, they’re referring to a film that doesn’t actually exist, never has and never will exist.

The Highlander series went straight from 1 to 3 due to a historical accident.

Because there’s only thing worse than a new world order, and that’s not being at the top of the new world order

Been playing Slice and Dice mainly, simple and fits into everything else that’s going on in life. This week I beat it on hard mode, just the once but that’s more than ever before!

Love Tom Cardy. His lord of the rings song is a constant rewatch favourite.

I think it was done with the very best of intentions, what it taught me is that you should either just go ahead and give up your seat or hang on to it, it’s the asking that makes things worse.

London transport introduced the little “baby on board” badges shortly after this, which simplified matters hugely.

I was on a packed commuter train once and in the silence this conversation happened

Seated guy (loudly): Are you pregnant?

Standing woman: Sorry?

Sg: I said are you pregnant?

Sw: No

Sg: Oh okay

The second hand cringey embarrassment of that interaction has stayed with me for about 25 years

Socialised private transport? Call it a car club and it’s private enterprise and therefore okay, like Zipcar here in the UK!

At this point why even have your own car? A pool of cars that can come and pick you up when you need it would be more efficient and allow the cost to be shared widely across a group

That was incredible! Just back from getting up on the hills in Hertfordshire and the reds and green aurora visible to the naked eye were stunning.

Never thought I would see that in this country.

That is indeed interesting as fuck, thank you

I think my 7T is no longer in update territory. Probably time for a change!
