I know it depends how you cut the cookie but their ultimate parent is a Chinese company

Used to but not so much recently as gardening took priority. Now it's getting chilly I'm going to start again and see how much I enjoy it.

I'm torn on listening to podcasts: I enjoy them but feel I disconnect myself from the nature if I listen to them instead of the evening.

I noticed that during the day messing with my phone but take a bag/litter picker so that I have no hands left for my phone!

This is wild and deserves a down vote. A 60 second look on Google would show everything you've said about women's rights is wrong. It's 14, in China it appears it's never been 12.and there are many laws covering women's right to consent.

p.s. I'm not a tankie BTW or whatever the phrase is, I have equal distain for all governments, including my own

We're kind of I'm a similar position, my wife is so keen to ask their wife what their pronouns are to respect and support them but I've maintained (thanks to advice on here) that we should use the they/them pronouns until invited otherwise.

She struggles with they/them more than I do for some reason (I think because she's a teacher and more literal with language).

No no, I have strong evidence to suggest that's called, "marriage"

See, does that go far enough?

If I'm letting someone out on my commute, a factor is how many people are in the vehicle. If it's a bus, they automatically get courtesy as who am I to delay 50 people to save myself 10 seconds.

ATC should be the same with private jets - they only get a slot once all the bigger planes have landed

Erm, OK then?! :)

I'd go with something a tad more moderate like make it illegal for any private entity to rent out property as that would then remove the issue we currently have which is large volumes of property falling into the hands of corporations and pushing towards indentured servitude. As a bonus it would also remove Airbnbs/holiday lets

Who would offer a property to you in that scenario though? We're talking state funded housing right as there's no incentive for private landlords to outlay the money for you to pay it off slowly while living there

I struggle to believe that. Every single one of these have an agent who's job it is to know and inform their client if a role is problematic.

Hell, I think on a personal level they'd be aware also as it has very much become her personality.

That's an adorable answer

I can kind of relate, one of the nicest smells for me is walking into a used bike place and smelling all the 2-stroke. Heaven - now I ride EV I'd never go back but I think that's an age thing too

We joked 5 yrs back about having to buddy up to get ski boots on. We're now working out the rota!

I'm sorry you had to cut your family out but ultimately you don't need that toxicity in your life so we'll done for improving your life in one easy action!

As a sassenach I shouldn't really be encouraging this but just been up to Glasgow and it's a very compelling proposition!

It also seems to have a very cheap network of flights into the rest of Europe

Maybe the other 9% are trans and like a great secret beach don't want everyone to know how fabulous it is to be trans!

Sorry about my brother then as he appears to be playing bingo with the number of prejudices he has. Still, at least he hates everyone.

Immigrants are his favourite hate group, strange to say he's not originally from Australia

I think while the British plug is good, there's lots of great design globally.

Arguably time to adopt all of them for a global standard that rocks

I must have missed this, I don't even think we have electronics if you mean like consumer electronic equipment, just stuff made in the far East with a brand slapped on it

Eating Disorder

£10 ear buds, my 10yr old ones kind of still work but don't disconnect when they go back in the charger so are frustrating as hell. Worth it
