Market stall holder just surviving. I will be okay, not because everything is fine, but because I am surprisingly difficult to destroy.

How does a country that has an insanely high homicide rate, manage to botch murdering someone? Give a pistol to the victim’s parent and get them to do it, if they want satisfaction so badly otherwise ban this barbaric judicial relic.

I don't know why it's taken me so long to listen to The Pleasure Principle album by Gary Numan but it slaps more than the Tango guy

AI automation is the ultimate form of consumable pop music. It’s been the goal of the music industry - a product that costs nothing and rakes in 100% profit. There was pushback in the 90s when 80s synth was replacing bands but it’s been creeping back for a while now, with streaming slashing costs.

9 games that made me who I am today. (more in alt text)
My 9 Games box art collage featuring:
- Sid Meier's Civilization: an addictive game that knobbled my GCSE results (and Civ 2: R I P to my Uni results).
- Uridium 2: A top-down R-type a-like where instead of a constant side scroller, you strafe an enemy ship then land to blow up the reactor in a static flappy bird style.
- Fallout 2 because it is simply the best Fallout (sorry NV, but my dislike of F3 put me off playing it for so long that by the time I did play it, the graphics were REALLY dated).
- Given how much time I've sunk into Fallout 4, it's not a good game, it's a a guilty pleasure.
- Final Fantasy 7: I um'd and ah'd about which F.F. to choose but I'll go with this one. It's iconic for a reason and the first one I ever played.
- Skidmarks: Another Amiga banger. Simple isometric top-down racing fun. Shout out to Skidmarks 2 for adding caravans towed by cows on wheels.
- Speedball 2: Even though I didn't know what was happening most of the time, I loved it.
- Aliens versus Predator: 19 99 version my mate in university halls and I used serial link to play this multiplayer. It's one of my favourite memories.
- Knights of the Sky: An Amiga flight sim that set me on the path of plane obsession, leading to me being nicknamed Biggles by my mates

As a former short-term bar manager at a booze n burger stand in Leicester, the ban was just the footie. Rugby matches there were not subject to the same restrictions. IME footie fans were (mostly) shouty entitled lager drinking asses while the rugby lot were polite bitter drinkers

From purely ahuman point of view - as far as recouping your losses go, this is a daft idea because booze & cigs are the most heavily taxed consumable items going. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Tories would prevent long-term jobless spending benefits on alcohol and cigarettes
The proposals would also see benefits cut for people who are able to work but have failed to hold down a job.

This isn't a metaphor. Just a story about a roach. COMIC ◆ www.smbc-comics.com/comic/roach-2 PATREON ◆ www.patreon.com/ZachWeinersm... STORE ◆ smbc-store.myshopify.com
4-panel SMBC comic update. The first panel shows a cartoon little roach happily saying "oh man! The stupid human put food in here. fool!" The next panel shows the roach walking away from a poison trap as he says "I’m gonna give it to everyone!" The third panel shows a human at his computer with a similar expression to that of the cartoon roach. The man says "this stupid company made a controversial ad. How embarrassing for them!" The man then walks away from the computer desk, at an angle reminiscent to the panel where the roach walks away from the poison trap. The man says "better share with all my friends and family so everyone knows which ad not to look at."

I think it’s the accounts who post Liberal memes without comment or alt text that are some of the worst on here. There’s nothing you can do to stop it appearing on your feed, other than block it when it happens. Yes, your president is a cunt, I don’t need to see his AI-filtered ass on a daily basis

Not to sound ultra-capitalist but we had a market traders' meeting where I was pleading the case for there to be core hours where everyone's open (yes, stalls open late and/or go early) & another trader said "what happens when you decide you've made enough money for the day?" What is this "enough"
