Sometimes I miss how bitchy early strictly was, there's such a thing as *too* much positivity

Ngl, I'm secretly glad. She's a brilliant pro - her choreo and teaching is super - but she looks so small and thin still that I worry about her doing more than a few weeks

By that same logic you could say that the Tories can't possibly be anti-feminist or racist - they have a black woman leader after all!

From Strictly It Takes Two... NO ONE IS SAFE FROM THE CURSED RATIO
An audience poll for Strictly's It Takes Two, where the question was "What do you want to see more of in Week 1? Personality or Technique?" Personality got 52% and Technique got 48%. BREXIT STRIKES AGAIN

Just succumbed to statistics-induced apoplexy after I looked up the anecdote at the start of The Wisdom of the Crowd, where they said the average from the crowd was better than individual guesses, when it was actually the MEDIAN

Interjecting myself here to say I had a quick look at the Facebook page of my closest RNLI Lifeboat station, and they are doing a fundraising craft fair soon. So maybe there are other stations that might welcome knitted hats etc that can be sold at one?

This is very dangerous information because I have now been on the website and discovered that there's a whole ass menagerie of bags. There's a teddy bear, a swan... a MANTA RAY. Plus look at this badass clutch (available in black and gold for your goth soul).
A clutch with a short gold chain, in the shape of an anatomical heart. There are big arteries and veins that are gold and the main body of the bag is bedazzled with baby pink crystals

Visited Imperial College as part of a Web Science course and they tried to get Docker set up for us in an afternoon workshop. Needless to say, it did not go well and I've never touched it since!

The image is of a four panel comic.
The title above the first two panels reads, "Dog Toys".
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a bone shaped dog toy. She says, "Look!"
The second panel shows a dog wagging its tail. There is a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It squeaks!"
The title above the last two panels reads, "Cat Toys".
In panel three we see Sarah again. She says "Come, child."
Panel four shows a cat raising its paws in glee. We see Sarah's hands holding cat nip. We see a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It is time to do drugs".

Fwiw it looks like gov is investigating changing this (totally did not come across this while googling whether disclosure of your previous salaries is mandatory) www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
bbc.co.uk
Salary information to be shown on job ads under new laws
The government argues the move would help jobseekers and could reduce pay discrimination claims.

Really agree with this! It's why if I were to need to write a research paper abstract again, I'd never outsource it to AI. It's through the paper and abstract writing process that I was always able to refine what my core argument was.

I think one of the most frustrating parts here is that by the time of the tiered lockdowns, we had enough evidence that COVID primarily spread through the air - and there were things that could have been done to mitigate spread (masks, HEPA filters, CO2 monitors) and gov just... didn't do it.
