Probably just some “lets put out a story that sounds like we’re doing something good (but will never actually put any real time or effort into), rather than just imprisoning people for disliking genocide” kinda day…

A match made in H…Hull/Hanover then! What’s the German equivalent of leaves on the lines?

Germany are going to have to do the heavy lifting on this one, we can’t even make one go half way up our country.

Just leave the bottle on the counter

Run for Something sounds good. We have a fairly healthy number of independent politicians in the UK I think but something like that can only help improve peoples involvement in local snd national government.

Assuming you’re from the US by sharing that, I hope you have more than luck to help over there!

Oh I’m well aware that the Con govmnt has been an appalling dismantling of our country, but Labour are so far appearing to largely be following suit. Remember the Tory repetition about the need for austerity? It just feels like a repeat of that, to put it very breifly. I know 14 years can’t be fixed overnight, but shitting on the poor and needy, who have been suffering the most already is just grotesque. There’s plenty of condemnation by journalists and MPs alike for this as well as some calls to tax the rich instead.

I’ve never voted for either so I’m looking at what they do through neutral(ish!) eyes and I don’t see politics so much an ever increasing pandering to the corporate economy (over decades).

I can’t say I’m too knowledgable about Aus politics, but got glimpses of how bad your last govmnt was through the Guardian. Hope you have a better time than us with a new set of faces!

Meanwhile, here in the Uk our government is making sure we won’t have enough money to buy more than two days of food at a time.

They’re no worse than (possibly better than) people who voted for whichever party because their parents/newspaper taught/told them to, or because that’s who they always vote for and are too lazy, stubborn, peer pressured or insecure to change - i.e. people who claim to be politically literate but don’t actually have a clue what they’re really voting for.

I cannot understate how insulted he’d be to hear that! Not least because he’s infinitely more intelligent than 2000 of those two!

Yep, I have a ‘random shit’ drawer too

I was so hoping that was toasty the toaster! Waffles? How about a bagel?

Probs about right, would imagine numbers around that myself.

Well no, it does feel like it can’t be much worse than the current state of Con-Lab.

Christ if there was a re-election every time a new government got into power and didn’t stick to their maifesto we’d never have a government at all!

I wonder how many of the petition signers are tories…

Today/the last week, I have been mostly listening to Instant Rewards by Tides from Nebula, along side their previous album From Voodoo to Zen.

Probably not, there’s plenty of people who mostly just listen to the radio and don’t own much music. Sounds much the same. If it doesn’t work for you then it doesn’t work for you!

It’s an awesome opening to the album, “oooaaaahhh POWERRRNERRD!”, classic Devin!

So many bands I’d love to see! But that’s somewhat small fry, so to speak, so ancient history, if I could travel to a different location also instantaneously (guess that’dhave to be possible or else it’dbe pretty boring or hard work!). Ancient Egypt, Greece, Central America Mayans… but then, are WE immune from consequences also?! Free from contracting diseases, free from being sacrficed to a god or getting enslaved?! Can we communicate with them?! Dinosaurs would also be awesome, if immunity was guaranteed…chomp!

Or perhaps just see my dad again :)

Why would bringing back photos have consequences? It’s not like it’ll suddenly make them become extinct! I assume the OP means consequences on the past not future of course! :)

Paper chains around the room!
