I found the M25, M11, and North Circular to have very good road markings and cats' eyes.

The "respectable" ones don't lie, but they do choose what to not cover and what to draw attention to. For example, the lack of coverage of the train derailment in Ohio. And zero articles since the government said the UFOs the

Wouldn't that mean that headlights seem to be more blinding in the UK, which they don't?

Are you me? I also recently rented that MG SUV in the UK, although I didn't like how it drove. The steering wheel felt loose like it wasn't connected to the wheels enough (I know nothing about cars and can't describe this bet

Your interpretation is not very different to the journalists: > The subsequent letters were a bit more enigmatic: could it mean "bears cwærtern" – the Old English word for "prison"? The Latin passage it accompanies de

Think how simple minded that would make them seem though: "Ugg ugg me see me no understand me attack" As much as I want ETs to exist, I really hope we wouldn't shoot them down if they were just observing.

I think to start imagining what the rest of the universe might contain one has to have moved past the god delusion, which rules out a lot of people in developing countries.

It's a bit like God really. The burden of proof lies with the believers not the atheists.

No, they are the effects of neolibral politics since Reagan: cut regulations and allow the free market to fly free. Yes the current administration squashed the rail workers strike, but governments only act in a way they feel will get them t

Sometimes it seems so predictable that someone will say it that I think they are being deliberately ignorant and trolling.

Not even going to read the article because I know this is bs. Every time I go to the grocery store there are more plant based meat alternative products to choose from than last time, and the best ones sell really fast. It's not even ju

Do we have to keep having this conversation? Lots of people, like myself, choose to not eat meat because we care about animal welfare. It's not because we don't like eating meat. Therefore food that tastes and feels like meat but

Interesting. I didn't like The Expanse at all- I thought it read like it had been written from the offset with the intention of it being a Netflix show. It lost me early on, when a character beat up a load of enemies with her jiu jitsu

1-1's are probably useful for the very ambitious types who want to climb the ladder as they can make their manager clear the path for them. For people who want to stay in their current role and just keep doing their job as well as they

These do nice job with tofu. Cut into cubes, toss in some oil, salt and pepper, and air fry for 15 mins. Tofu comes out like that deep fried take out tofu!

It seems like you are saying that it would be fine for someone to eat nothing but potato chips and candy bars, as long as they: a) don't eat so much they get obese, or b) take an anti-obesity drug so they don't get obese Which is

Masks are primarily for protecting other people, you cough and sneeze and breathe out infected water droplets into the mask- not other people's faces. Why do people like you have such anger about mask wearing?

In that scenario I'd recommend learning javascript, react/redux, and css. And also SQL if they haven't worked with it. Why? They'd probably be fine with the server side aspect of web development (writing an API or whatev
