ALARM!!!

Do I retain my inertial momentum? If so, I immediately slam into the ground or shoot up into the sky, turning into a fine mist or burning up instantly, or both.

If the planet (and the universe) stop moving, but I don’t, I’m dead, haha.

Similarly if we say that I don’t retain that momentum, what happens to my ability to see? Light is no longer travelling, so I’ll be mostly blind? Will I be able to move through the air, given that I’ll be pushing on time-frozen air molecules? If I can move them by exerting force, are they sufficiently sparse that they have somewhere to move that doesn’t require pushing even more frozen air, to the point that moving becomes very difficult?

Will air that I’ve moved continue to move after I breathe it out, or will it go back to being frozen in time, such that I can’t sleep or stay in the same spot for long, because I will build up an unmoving cloud of CO2 around my face and die?

What other ways can you think of that would make pausing time this way suck or kill you? :-D

Recipes that don’t specify things in grams and millilitres can go screw.

“Now add a traditional american furlong of bushel sauce to the 25 ounce pot until it bubbles up by five and a smidge horse hands” … yeah, no 😅

I’m sold, this sounds fantastic! Where might I procure it in the UK do you reckon?

God I wanna eat it right now

I really could care less either way.

My pet peeve is people who say this expression wrong, because it’s not only slightly mispronounced, but entirely turned on it’s head to mean the exact opposite of its intention. This reversal of meaning seems clear, so I’m not sure why the error is so prolific, though it does seem more of a thing in other countries like the USA, not so much here.

It’s “couldn’t care less”, not “could care less”. You’re trying to say “I care so little that it is not possible for me to care any less than I do already”.

Instead, by saying you “could care less”, you are being ambiguous about how much you care, but confirming that you care at least a little bit (or possibly due to the ambiguity it’s the most important thing in your life and you care so, so much).

Sorry if I sound grouchy, it’s just something that’s bugged me for a long time and here at 5am is when I decided to finally say something about it, haha. No shade on you personally though, as the hip youths would say! :-D

I haven’t heard anything from this guy in years and then yesterday I see he gave a speech about that bloke that got shot in America, and now this post too suggesting he’s Santa.

Is he making a bit of a comeback? Or just a random coincidence!

Why does it credit you for chocolate milk though? That stuff is basically liquid chocolate bar, it’s not at all healthy haha.

I have a small bottle of it as a sweet sugary treat every few months but I’m not kidding myself into thinking it’s healthy.

The above chap hit the nail on the head in terms of the UK.

Sure, hardcore criminals can get their hands on a gun, but the sort of people who want to cause trouble at a school certainly don’t.

I went to one of the worst schools in the country and while some of our students did occasionally murder people out in their private lives (I lived in the biggest shit hole in the country - the government even said so), in the school itself the worst thing I ever saw was a pupil throwing a chair at a teacher. And that was incredibly rare and shocking.

A student did arson one of the maths rooms too but that was over the weekend when nobody was there. They really hated that teacher haha. We had to do the rest of the year’s maths lessons in the Hall. So weird.

But ya, that’s all the extreme cases, and they’re nowhere remotely near “gun” territory. That’s just insanity. I never felt unsafe in a school.

That’s a term? What’s it mean, besides identifying someone as black and Irish? O.o

American boomers*

It is too late, yeah. Good to realise and feel it sometimes I think.

What’s with the picture tho? Is that a frozen chicken? Just a random choice?

Hey no fair, the US is just copying us! (UK)

We targeted Wikipedia first recently waaaaa

Flag shaggers aren’t known for their high intelligence…

Let’s say this huge breach of security and privacy is okay.

How are Microsoft ensuring these sensitive documents are not being transferred via or stored on servers located in hostile countries with lax data laws (such as foreign nations like the USA?).

Ah yes, hooman fee-mayles!

Does anyone else find it unhealthily creepy the way people put a voice to pets like this to anthropomorphise them, and gives them a creepy toddler voice to boot?

They’re smart in their own ways, but they don’t think the way we do, and we’ll never know exactly what they’re thinking or why. Let’s not presume to know what’s going on inside their heads.

And let’s not presume to add our own vocal track to their thoughts. Especially a creepy toddler one.

Vintqge Story is my favourite game :3

Which of the items in the list do you disagree with?

There’s one thing in there that I could certainly understand somebody reasonably not entirely supporting, at least.

I’d hardly call it creative or inspiring.

It’s good that it wasn’t just built as an ugly rectangle, but I could have come up with that basic design in 10 minutes, and I’m not very creative.

Still, it’s better than the alternative! Hopefully it’s nicer inside too?

This looks gorgeous! Makes me want to get out of bed and go cook, but I should be sleeping xD

Americans fucking with the rest of us again? Why am I not surprised.

There’s so many good people in that country, I hope they can take down their evil fascist government and restore decency before we have to cut ties entirely to mitigate the damage they’re trying to do.

Our alliance with them is currently dying a death by a thousand cuts. Keep this up and eventually it’ll be over, sadly.
