I don’t think you can correlate the number of readers to the number of book instances or whatever they’re called. Most people (myself included) probably just use Goodreads, and BookWyrm is probably a good enough alternative that there’s no need to spin up another.

Edit: according to this there’s a lot of instances: https://joinbookwyrm.com/instances/

People get really weird about this, they act like you MUST cycle and train it everywhere and anything is just an excuse.

Yet.

I feel like this could be dangerous, the government could just not fund a rival party or at least make it awkward to a point of being a hindrance.

There should probably be a spending limit per candidate and all their donations and finances just be fully open and audited by an independent body.

What’s the underlying problem that’s causing water companies to go down this route? Has there been a chronic lack of investment over the years and now they aren’t keeping up with demand and having to dump it instead of process it?

How else would they be funded?

The bot should have the feature of only posting if it’s saved over a % threshold.

Why? Are we forgetting that Britain spent 6 years fighting the Nazis?

That’s a weird way of spelling “being thrown into a pit of sewage”

If you align mostly with the Lib Dems, then vote for them, unless your absolute priority is to keep the Tories out and then you should vote tactically.

If we didn’t vote for a party based on a single broken promise from over a decade ago then nobody would vote for anyone.

People always seem caught up on this - as they should do, but people never seem to treat other parties broken pledges the same way. “I got screwed over by the Lib Dems in 2010, therefore I’ll never vote for them and vote Labour instead” - a party who have broken probably at least 100x as many pledges and made numerous U-turns. Labour promised electoral reform when they’d get in power and then immediately abandoned it, a change would have totally transformed British politics.

“Be nice and civil” - which is a fair enough rule, but it’s always used as a blanket ban. Most of the removed comments weren’t hostile or uncivil

The thread was posted into the memes community too so there’s always going to be a bit of banter, but most comments that weren’t in support of China were removed.

OPs girlfriend welcomed all of us.

I’m sure Gregg’s could team up with local crematoriums to cook their long baked goods.

I’ve never even been to a Pret, just never see them anywhere.

That said, Greggs is really overrated.

What a bargain, I think I’ll pick up two just in case my kids destroys one of them.

It’s only slightly more expensive, surely it’s worth it!

What’s the problem? Just use your third hand to keep the button down

My wife and her mum have gone away until Monday, so I’ve got both the kids all weekend. They’re keeping me on my toes! I’m trying to find the time to watch the F1 qualifying but don’t have a chance.

Only found out at 8:30 this morning that my daughter has a birthday party to go to at 10:45, and my wife has the car so might have to chance cycling there and hopefully avoid the rain.

Thank fucking Christ. That’s sooner than I expected too!
