I haven’t watched this yet but have been looking forward to it.

It’s on Discovery+ for catch-up, TLC if you want to watch live.

The ninety-second of the melmelmel clan.

If it’s a date it’s more likely to be their year of birth, no?

I’m not sure if it works the same way, but Google Wallet uses a virtual card number as well as needing the phone unlocked. There a layer of obfuscation over using a contactless card, that I like.

How about some Adam Buxton?

Adam Buxton - Skip This Track

Yes.

Sorry if I came across like that (I still think 3½ jobs is too many just for a roof and food, but maybe that’s normal for America - for a European, it sounds insane). That’s a shitty situation to be in and I feel for you. The US sucks right now, unfortunately the only two options are to move to a country (or at least state - seriously, what sort of law is that? I sort of understand where it could come from but it makes no sense) which doesn’t persecute trans people, or ride it out and hope the next administration reverses all the terrible things that lunatic has done. The first is expensive and the second isn’t great either. I hope your situation improves.

Three and a half jobs… Obviously I don’t know the full situation but you must be living well outside your means. Whatever money sinks you have, get rid of them if you can. Nobody should need to work three or more jobs. I’d argue nobody even needs to work two jobs but sometimes it’s unavoidable or one is a personal project which wouldn’t be possible without income from the other.

Sort your finances out so you can work less and you’ll be happier.

I like the comparison with the 1972 image:

The old one looks like the colour has been turned up too high. The new one is a lot more natural.

Cats being fed today and yesterday!

Should read:

There are a few petrol shortages in the UK I believe, but that’s mostly people panic buying. I have an EV so doesn’t affect me!

Thanks, I don’t think there was a link in the article. I’ll edit it into the description.

With my own money, it would have been some ZX Spectrum budget title. I clearly remember Fantasy World Dizzy being mine and I think I bought it with my own money rather than it being purchased for me, so I’m going to go with that.

The “it’s twelve o’clock somewhere” beer.

That’s a… bit weird.

Due to the reasons mentioned in the previous pinned post

What reasons? What previous pinned post? I can’t see this here or on the crosspost community.

Change them to a different archiving provider

Any recommendations?

There’s a new one of these coming. I forget the name of it, except it’s the year again (maybe Twenty Twenty Six as presumably it’s set in the current year)

Useless prick is the point! A lot of the humour comes from the whole lot of them being complete idiots. I enjoyed it but I can see it’s not for everyone.
