When people talk about a vibecession, smartphones supposedly got 8% cheaper last year.

“Cyclists are often perceived as recklessly flaunting road laws. A new study challenges this perception. The study found only 5% of cyclists broke road rules while riding on bike infrastructure versus 66% of motorists who broke rules while driving.” Safe bike infrastructure fuels rule-following.

Absolute geezer just walked past my window ranting on the phone and said rant was "I told him G major, you don't want to be going to A minor, that's just the f'ing wrong note"

A hotel just emailed me asking me to 'experience timeless moments' which is pretty existential tbh.

It's called coagulated dairy, maybe you've curd of it.

If you want to know the difference between the UK and US psyche, these are basically the same gif.

In corporate world my company scheduled a forum, an all hands and a town hall. So I'm not sure if I should wear a toga, a mariners outfit, or just my best small town citizen clothes.

If you're proud to be British, but you're not English, and England are playing France and it's on in the pub you're in, who do you support? (The pub is in Scotland)

House of the rising sun by the animals. Or, for reasons I really can't explain, this. youtu.be/lk4fxsrJajY?...

I too do not want cameras in goochland.

Can't wait to hear all about it.

This is what happens when one of you orders off the specials menu. If they'd both stuck to big macs would've been 20 minutes tops.

"privately flash alarms" good metaphoring there. Only really works if you mean the other kind of flash.

I genuinely find it kinda weird to want to be a singer on stage and stay A- political. It's just a character type I honestly can't picture.

100% opposite way of doing this. I call on god's judgement if I accidentally litter or something and nobody else is around to judge me.

Extremely french but good and right 'how' there.

I am once again planning to ride too far on my bike for charity, this time from Vienna to Budapest, like some sort of Habsburg. Please donate if you can for a fantastic charity. gvwhl.com/XTUSR

Swear to god someone had a steak and kidney pie vape on the beach just now.

TBF, less weird than if they did it non-remotely.

I keep banging the drum about this, but I think people really underestimate the negative effects of that blue line going up like that.

Debt to GDP ratios

Who else were they planning to invite?

But where else will he get to read my bangers?

Lot of Georgians on this train

Just saw like a 20yo in an Ocean Colour Scene teeshirt that I honestly think she assumed it was alt text

Isn't that just slightly below the US average? And so is 3 47 supposed to be like symbolic? But that doesn't obviously work.

Mine is somehow Bournemouth, despite us having an office there. The next is probably Telford. Though 50-50 if I've ever been to Wirral.

Phil Foden and Cole Palmer are having a good game tbf

Gunna have to narrow that down...oh you mean recently.

Absolutely love the idea of being on alert for a giraffe in Texas. As if otherwise you might have seen it and not thought anything of it.

Always sceptical of productivity as a measure. For eg. UK has reduced average working hour weeks far slower than Germany. Plus rules on what counts as being at work. And whether productivity is necessarily good.

Noooo

Never noticed before how Declan rice just nonchalantly takes corners without placing the ball with his hands. Seems like a bit of a flex these days.

Tell me more about the infinite growth plans of AI.

When I studied sociology two separate lecturers started their courses with "we have the evidence, but unfortunately the economists/cops won" and it was gist of two others.

Picked a good day for my car to break down....in France.

Keep seeing this take and isn't that just the collapse of the Tory party? They had so many PMs that an unpopular labour leader easily beat them. (Also that four is two leaders who were also ousted). There were 6 PMs in the 50s, averaged similar 2.5yrs per PM most of the post war era.

Arms, legs, head, giant leaf blower.

Has anyone seen The Girl in Cabin 10? Or even better, Bodies? My wife like them and I want to rant about their similar ridiculous flaw of having ridiculously bad baddy plots.
