    https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2024/05/qassem-soleimani-iran-middle-east/678472/ I guess it's important to remember that there are American military people who aren't gun-toting yee-haws.

    Celebrity Creeps Thread

    When she played London she had two Steinways which is fine. She did finish on time though. And obviously there was a top notch touring crew, if a bit weary from the long tour. But, she also had a seated mosh pit. I didn't see the show, but it doesn't chime with what I observed.

    Your work situation

    Did a thing, new client, I was recommended. But I wasn't recommended because I'm good, they're barrel scraping. It's a busy week. But then I get there, look at it and think "I'm actually competent here". And their regulars are, em, used to doing things their way which is wrong. Also, they...

    Minor Pleasures

    I'm not very hopeful about the stop smoking clinic I've just booked myself into. But hey, gotta do something. The minor pleasure is that the guy on the phone kept on saying "See you next Tuesday". English is not his first language and I don't think he got that he was saying C U n T a bunch of...

    Minor complaints thread

    I forgot to get a receipt for a train ticket from the machine just now. Work would have refunded it, now I don't know. Human behind the counter said he couldn't do anything about it. As if he thinks the machine is taking his jobs. but, if he's unable to help me, then what actually is the point...

    4 vids from Bohs gig 18/5/24 (Restarts/Trouble Pilgrims/Dropping Bombs)

    ha ha, I'm aware of The Restarts, but more as my neighbours dad is the singer rather than as a band. And I know half the people in this video: I'm sure I've seen them before, I don't remember them sounding so clean. They are tight, but I remember it being much noisier. Must be the recording.

    Clothes and haircuts

    I went out with a suit jacket today. No stylistic reason, I had just run out of clean clothes, but apparently I looked "dapper", and indeed "dapper as fuck". Cosplay Tommy Shelby. Managing expectations I suppose. The ex-wife was there, and after I went off to the toilet or whatever, I'm told...

    Tell me a joke thread

    Cheese jokes I've strangely never heard before: What's the most punk cheese? Just don't give edam. What did the cheese say to itself in the mirror? Halloumi.

    2020-21 Football thread

    'member when you could get out of trouble by just saying "A.B.U."? Seems to have changed now. There was two lads here in Millwall clobber roaring United on. On the other screen, something Scottish happened.

    Getting rid of vinyls

    I would say record shop. They'll know what to do with it all, some of it might well end up in the charity shop ultimately. They surely deal with that kind of thing all the time.

    2020-21 Football thread

    These stories only pop up whenever Man City express an interest in Paqueta. The other rumour is that hangers-on have access to his bank account.

    london logistics

    Definitely more doable than option 1. Though Gatwick is my most frequently used airport so personally I can get out of there in 15 minutes. and Waterloo is quite large. I'll see ya in The hole In The Wall after.Ef Edit: iirc Ryanair have pretty good good gates at Gatwick. Robbed them off Aer...

    I ain't an Excel expert or anything, but work just sent out a new spreadsheet for us to record our hours on.w It's bad. It's real bad. I might have to re-do it in my free time. Wouldn't be so bad if it actually worked. My total is coming up as NAME? or whatever. Another guy billed for two...

    Your Health Is Your Wealth

    The couple of sepsis people I know either suffered it pre-covid or were on the road to it anyway. Both were seemingly innocuous, a bad tooth, a bad knee, otherwise fine. Both times the doc said "you'll be dead in a week if we don't deal with this right now". Scary. I'm gonna go on an uninformed...
