Intro post:
Fun - #TTRPG, played lots of DnD but soon to rotate in to DMing so expect a lot about that.
Professional - #DataScience & #Accountant python, excel, DBs.
Me - Grew up in poverty in Thatchers Britain and wherever I am now that has informed my politics. Never trust a Tory.

I'm told I spelled Ronan's name wrong, well after what he did to that song he should change his name and think about what he did so I'm just giving him a leg up really.
Listening to a Christmas one hit wonders thing from the BBC and they had a version of "The War is Over" by the pop idol people. It was dreadful. People who like that song, are the kind of people who are ok with GenAI.

I think it will effect me to the princely sum of £1.5 per week.
A lot of absolute melts are going to lose it about this. I hope your car hits every pothole and you can't get an appointment about your piles.

On the one hand that budget will sting a bit in a few years but I've said I should pay more tax for ages.
