Find the nearest English Civil War reenactment and go watch it

It depends on the game, character etc. I mean I suppose it adds to the escapism slightly?
I play all sorts of different games though, some where you’re not given the choice (Life Is Strange for example) and I don’t feel like it’s that big a deal
I mean yeah, I’ve been unemployed for a significant part of my working life. I guess you can also add to my list being the last generation encouraged to get a degree by well meaning parents and teachers at school ‘because it will guarantee you getting a job for life’.
Definitely as a millennial I’m of the last generation that will remember arranging to meet up somewhere in advance and sticking to that plan (or rearranging over landline with more than a day’s notice…)
But something I’ve noticed when I ask people in my team what their dream jobs are the younger people tend to say ‘run their own businesses’, ‘work for themselves’ etc. Whereas in our generation (in my circles anyway) that definitely wasn’t so prominent. Maybe a side effect of seeing influencers making it big?
Yeah it’s a real shame because from what I saw of the Artemis app it looked good as well. I hope the dev is ok.
Kbin definitely needs a decent app. The web app does the job but it can be a bit irritating as you say
2 made mine - ‘Hey Bulldog’ and ‘Cry Baby Cry’.
Top Artist - The Beatles (I relistened to their remaster of Revolver a lot this year, it’s really very good!)
Top Song - ‘Give It Up’ by Public Enemy
What if this is the afterlife of a religion we don’t know about from our previous existence?
I don’t think you can have a rational reply to your question - it’s all head canon
I work in healthcare. Never sounds this much fun, sorry, disgraceful.
I mean yeah I vape, that makes sense because it wasn’t the nicotine itself which was killing my lungs.
Apparently nicotine itself is as bad for you as caffeine, the worst thing about it is it’s insanely addictive without giving much of a high or anything in return…
That’s a very black and white way of putting it. As long as you’re an adult who can tell the difference between fantasy and reality, and you’re not spending hours obsessed with it I don’t think it’s unhealthy. The way you phrase ‘avoid it completely’ makes it sound like you’re going out of your way to avoid it already.
(I think the problems are coming through with the generation being ‘brought up on porn’, and thinking real sex is like it is in the videos online but that’s a different story really.)
Can cigarettes be used in a healthy way? Eh, only in very specific scenarios
Gonna have to bite and ask what very specific scenarios smoking could be healthy?
I’ve only heard of Mary Seacole out of the black Britons from history we’re expected to know of.
I actually googled the musician and he has a relatively interesting story but it’s also not at all surprising people don’t know who he is today - he had one piece which was very popular called the Feast of Hiawatha which according to Google was played regularly until 1939 and then doesn’t seem to have been revived. Seems he was much better regarded as a conductor.
Anyhow, historically this country’s establishment has made it hard for black people to get famous until the 20th century, something that this academic surely knows. She’s either naive or deliberately skewing her results for headlines by asking for names from a time when her top rankings include a Roman Governor!
They’re doing a separate crusade against disposable vapes. If they’re going after smoking I’d imagine they’d be trying to encourage people to vape to quit.
It’s all hypothetical because it’s highly unlikely he’ll still be in power to put this plan in to action come the next general election
8/20 here. Proud of getting some right. Really shocked about the answers to some!
A tricky test indeed
My sister still lives there and from what she says it’s not too difficult. Some VPNs work, others are on the ‘no longer work’ list and at big events they mysteriously stop working.
She’s not technically minded, she’ll just be using an app.
I’ve only slipped over in my current pair once in 4 years or so - but I’m in the UK so winter boots for me are more about warmth and rain resistance than snow!
I’ve always had Doc Martens boots for casual wear in the winter. They’re really comfortable as long as you break them in by wearing them around the house for half an hour a day for a week or two before going outdoors with them.
Getting cushioned insoles might help?
I’m not from the US, and have no real interest in defending their history on military matters, but your talking about their entertainment industry not their education system. The article is about how Russia is going to use its education system to get their kids to be good soldiers in the future, not about how they’re going to make more action films
The sources I find are solely from mastodon threads, and date from this month and the Brave thing. This is the best thing I’ve found
