From what I remember it didn't have points system so you had to resist a lot of urges when forming you band

So I'm not great with unusual (to me) foods, but for a week I can find enough bread, cereal, pizza or crisps to get by and I accept that it's my issue not the hotel's. I wouldn't expect a UK hotel to, necessarily, have food from every cuisine so why expect a Turkish one to?

Hmmm. I think the "phrasing things as a question" thing is awful. 15-1 is the best quiz show format. Mastermind is spoiled because you can't interrupt. Only Connect is my favourite though.

I never considered myself especially tolerant. I use tolerant to mean not causing a fuss over something I dislike, like I might tolerate someone eating an egg sandwich on the train. I don't "tolerate" LGBTQI people because I accept them fully. I don't tolerant the far right, i hate them

Oh for sure. The idea the "regretted sex" is an impulse for vindictive criminal accusations is almost entirely manosphere nonsense

jim1810.bsky.social @jim1810.bsky.social · 09/10/2026
"Regret" doesn't make something rape. But maybe you can consider whether a person might regret it before you do it.

I mean i can't see them killing him so him getting better (a rubicon Primarch?) and so not needing that suit would seem logical

The Dawn of Fire books don't though. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it's so they cam bring out a new model for him in a edition or two.

It's awful. I honestly can't defend any of it. Beyond it being entirely optional of course. But it's so awful

One of my favourite quotes is Socrates basically saying "kids these days". Because often things do change but it's surprising how often they stay the same. Equal marriage just let men complain about their husbands etc

I mean I think we deserve credit for ending slavery. But only if you acknowledge 1) we benefited for a long time 2) we were one of [the?] biggest slavers 3) we didn't end it solely out of the goodness of our own hearts, there were economic factors too 4) we compensated the slavers and 5) we didn't

I come from a tourist town in England. I'm not sure I necessarily have more in common with someone from a northern former mining town in Yorkshire than I do from a seaside town in South Wales or even like New England or (language aside) Normandy.

jim1810.bsky.social @jim1810.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
he's the proud son of immigrant parents, obviously a black man and absolutely a Londoner. Now can you say that someone can be of the capital city of England without being English? Seems a little silly. So yeah if you're born, naturalised or have a stake in the place you're one of us. And also

jim1810.bsky.social @jim1810.bsky.social · 02/10/2026
I used to think that "English" did mean white (not in a racist way i promise as I've always felt British could be anyone but in a way that means there is such a thing as an English ethnicity [now I'm not sure there is "a" English ethnicity]) but then i had a think; take someone like Idris Elba,

I don't even understand why 2026? Why not wait until 2066 and borrow it for a whole year or something?
