Ah yes the nonsensical myth that the number of lazy people (so insanely lazy that they prefer to live below minimum wage) magically grows and shrinks in tandem with the economy and changes to the elasticity of the labour market ...without being in any way related to it.
Oh no, easypeel are the best. Sudden childhood flashback to my mum having to demonstrate to me that actually no a sausage roll is not hard crusted dried meat all the way through, only the bits that stick out the ends. 🤦♂️
Yep tangelo, still going crazy, so is the mandarin. I was going to cut some fruit for the birds and post a photo friday PSA about feeding windfalls to waxeyes and tui but got too caught up in mundane paperwork. Citrus is great though isn't it, comes along at the perfect time!
When it ends will be the best time for pruning too, to repay the tree with a bit of tlc.
Hmm maybe you need a triple shot?
Pretty sure Philip K Dick predicted it in the 60s but I can't remember which book or story. I sometimes worry that we make things because he predicted them, but I do like the homeopapes.
Yeah I'm in a similar boat, I don't watch broadcast tv or listen to the radio unless someone makes me, I have ad blockers and tracker blockers, my loyalty cards are all signed up to an alias and its alias phone.
Now that we don't have a cat to spoil, I don't think I'm anyone's preferred target market though, except maybe some low level grifters!
I guess in the absence of data it will default to what advertising always defaults to, i.e penis enlargement.
Yes, it coming sooner than expected was, as this article said, "WTH" and a sign of things to come not being all that great. Austerity is more or less proven to not work, it's frustrating to see it being wheeled out again especially in the form of public sector job losses.
Google algorithms pounce on vulnerable people, billboards could do the same.
Not looking forward to the dystopia where one minute I'm admiring a picturesque landscape in a New Caledonia holiday ad and the next minute it sees me and hastily changes to an ad for cheap chocolate from The Warehouse.
It's so fortunate that they taste terrible.
I know this is really good for those of you with mortgages. Bad for savers, so swings and roundabouts. I had hoped the economy would sustain a higher OCR for longer.
Cute dog sitting was super tiring but I seem to have bounced back okay with no lasting effects so am feeling pretty good.
Still citrus galore everywhere!
Ugh that sounds gross, I hope it goes away soon!!
I meant that more as a workaround!
