Kamala Harris made a decent move last night, she made the latest Biden gaffe pretty evident.
Her and Booker have such an edge in debate, apparently Pete came out quite well too.

I'm not sure if I got the link from here or 2p2 but I remember there was a site with a quiz with a second part to each question that asked you to judge how sure you were of your answer. Anyone remember it? It essentially was judging you not on your actual score, but your ability to judge your own ability. Would be 5+ years ago.

Someone has to claim to all those resources under the Arctic when the sheets melt, I suspect the continental shelf of that island to astronomically wide reaching.

The problem seems to be old people.
TBC anyway. I feel it's like with children. No point saying 'if you do that, you'll hurt yourself". Let them feel the pain, then they might learn a lesson."We are not Europeans. Those people on the continent are freaks."

My little one is turning 11 months, current favour part of her life is "row row row your boat", she can't wait for the "if you see a crocodile don't forget to..." part so that she can scream.
Also have to lower the base of the crib this weekend, in the middle of the night I went into her as she was giving out (wanting a feed), she was standing up in the crib trying to pull herself over the railings....Double-decker bus enthusiast

Literally every Twitter chat we have is me correcting him about why he's gotten something wrong. I will say this for him, the last one I pulled him up on he did correct and remove it.

Although you're right, I am smug. I'm actually just ribbing Hitch, I like that we don't see eye-to-eye. It's fun and he's good to debate with.You are technically correct...the best kind of correct

Got the mail from eir there confirming no more BT sports from August. They went with having all 48 rugby World Cup games as a way to soften blow. so maybe 12 competitive games?

In terms of cabin comfort you can get a pretty good blast from the fan when you're doing 300 kmh that does enough to avoid being uncomfortable even with a high outside temp. Sitting on the ground without the engine running its like a greenhouse.
It was also quite hazy today which dampened down the radiant heat.
All that said, my iPad didn't enjoy sitting in the direct sunlight and decided it needed a break to cool down somewhere over the Bristol Channel.

When they try to debate Rugby's position as a minority sport, ask them what they consider a sport where the two best countries on the planet have populations of about 5 million and rugby is only 4th choice in one of those
Then ask for a discount on your bill!
