It's required by law in Ireland that you wake up every 30minutes to pray and curse England. You might as well check your emails since you're awake anyway

displaying unsportsmanlike behaviour by complaining that Car 1 had overtaken under Safety Car conditions.

Red Bull saying that it's unsportsmanlike to complain about rule-breaking when Verstappen (and everyone else) does it all the time. It's so hypocritical. I do get annoyed with them and find it really childish how much everyone runs to mummy whenever they feel their opponent breaks the rules. That's just how F1 is now though, and calling Russell out for it when Verstappen did the same thing in the same incident is another level of petty.

(Having said all that, it was so refreshing for Norris to admit his mistake immediately. I genuinely expected him to blame Piastri)

As much as I dislike Verstappen and think it's his fault for driving so close under safety car, I think this is the best result. Any time penalty would have probably dropped him out of the points which isn't fair for such a small infraction. Same for Russell

:o now I am the liar!

My stream cut out just after that, so I'll have to wait to see replays and see if there's a penalty. Could even be a race ban for Verstappen which I would find hilarious (I think he's only one penalty point away from a ban, right?)

I thought Russell was ok. He did brake, but it didn't seem egregious. Verstappen was already nearly alongside even before that, which didn't help him

If Verstappen would drive respectfully under safety car like everyone else, he wouldn't have accidentally overtaken there.

Actually it's on the Aston Martins as well, but most teams don't seem to have one

I've never noticed the air scoop on the Mercedes' noses before. Doesn't seem to be on any other cars either.

Just seen the replay. That was a good move, especially since he's still so new to F1

Yes. Use a full-colour printer and make sure your cards are legible. Support your game store / play space by buying something from them every time you visit or even just donate a small amount to them if they don't have a entry fee. No-one needs to be paying more than €1 for a piece of cardboard when a printer proxy is functionally identical. And I absolutely prefer proxies to foreign-language cards which some people buy because they're cheaper than English. At least a proxy you can read and know what it does.

Dark - it's a sci-fi mystery show with

Small spoiler for like episode 3time travel

with a really captivating and intriguing plot. It's available on Netflix and is originally German, but I feel the English voice actors did a great job for the most part. It's very intricate and tbh a bit confusing the first watch with how many characters there are. I honestly started keeping notes on who everyone is! The soundtrack is amazing, it's so thematic. I watched with my mum and she refused to walk the dogs at night afterwards without me there because the soundtrack is so intense and disturbing for some of the scenes. I highly recommend this.

To a lesser extent, I also recommend 1899 by the same team. It's also really interesting and cerebral, but was unfortunately cancelled after one season when it was starting to get interesting. The English dub does lose out a bit though because in the original there are three or four languages spoken and it turns into an important plot point as to who speaks what language. I didn't even realise they were speaking different languages so I was just confused when that happened.

 

I was doing some building work in my house yesterday and I slowly lost my temper over about 40 minutes but FOR SOME REASON I didn't stop just stop working for the day. Now I have to remove and replace an entire section of my wall because of the damage I caused. It had all just been painted too 😭

I've had a lot of meltdowns and burnouts recently, but I haven't lost my temper like this in years. For me, that's the real symptom of how badly I need a break. I'm not too upset with myself because I know that I would never normally act like this, but I'm still very ashamed. I needed to get this off my chest but I don't want to talk about it to anyone I know.

The moral of the story is that sometimes cheap supplies are shit, and plasterboard walls also suck. I've lived in a stone house most of my life, so it was really surprising to see how easily I could break a wall

As a non-American, I'm very confused by this. If it's a town, it's not rural by definition. Because, you-know, it's urban.

Also, could we get a definition of town vs small town. Do you not have the concept of a village? (Village in the UK would be a settlement with a population of a couple of thousand, with usually a pub, local shop, maybe a post office and primary school if you're lucky).

Thought I'd make this since the real one hasn't been created yet

I have a custom creature card in my cube. It's a 0/4 with the text: "Rubblebelt Rioters gets +X/+0, where X is the greatest power among creatures."

If it's the only creature in play, it's a 0/4. If it's in play with a 1/1, then it's a 1/4. Easy so far.

What happens if it's the only creature in play and it has a +1/+1 counter on it? Is it a 1/5? Does it see that the greatest power is 1, so it gives itself +1/+0, then +2/+0, +4/+0 ad infinitum?

I don't know of any real card with a similar static ability to check the rulings for.

I cut my own hair today for the first time and I am so happy with the result. I look like a cute little lesbian with a tomboy haircut and I have been smiling every time I see my reflection. It's was really tricky to get right and it took a long time.. I'm sure someone else could have done a better job.. but I finally look like myself! I put my jewellery back on for the first time in months because I felt like I deserve to look my best.

I got exactly one compliment when I went out today. "Did you cut your hair?" "Yes." "Nice." It's not much but I'll take it xD

On a side note, is this what it feels like to fit your gender? Just knowing I look like this instead of a guy with long hair has made me feel different about so many random things today

 
 

Our old printer has finally died and I'm coming with little to no knowledge of what to buy next. Our old printer was HP which required proprietary software to use the scanner and also ran the software on startup which all feels a little icky. Everything I've read about HP lately (as well as the quality of this printer TBH) makes me never want to buy from them again.

Just need something cheap and cheerful to print a couple of invoices a month that doesn't connect to the Internet or have AI or whatever other fancy but (for me) unnecessary features printers are doing now.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions :)
