Before you make the original comment "how salty is sodium", take a step back and think.

Sodium isn't salty. You're thinking of Sodium Chloride.

Sodium is the one where fucking around near it triggers an energetic reaction that can cause burns.

Not funny. But true.

The bells were there before you were.

They'll be there long after you too.

The government doesn't take control of roads in an emergency, the police do. And that's the Met for all of London anyway (excluding the square mile).

Therefore none of your comment had anything to do with the original post.

No one mentioned arteries. And if you meant local vs major roads, that would be arteries and capillaries. Veins would be the roads going in the opposite direction to the arteries.

Islington roads being controlled by the mayor instead of Islington council doesn't affect the government's role.

With these numbers one of the Reach "newspapers" will be reporting on it soon...

Based on working in IT support for years, I can only conclude that a great number of people who, when visiting their doctor, just stand by the door, say 'I'm sick' and don't utter another word.

I agree. But also, people have been saying this about bitcoin for at least a decade.

Would be doubly interesting if you had to send in your entire journey so it could be checked for your own infringements too.

I'm guessing a lot of people sending in these clips are pretty awful drivers themselves.

You naive fool.

AI is every fucking place and it's just getting worse. And now all the seed content is full of AI junk which means it's just going to get worse as the feedback loop continues.

"We've got your parcel".

From Royal Mail, DHL, FedEx, Yodel, DX, etc, this would be reassuring.

From Evri it feels like a ransom note.

But... Laws don't tend to have the word "law" on them anyway, unless they're one of these laws that gets named after someone. And I'm not sure the people would be overly happy with the "Child Sex Offender Disclosure Scheme" being called "Sarah's Experiment".

How the fuck did you interpret that as *that*?

Sodium @sodiumlights.bsky.social · 5d

The "number only used once" derivation is highly unlikely. The concept of "nonce-words" - which are words expected to be only used once - have been around for a long time. Nonce meaning to happen only once goes back something like 700 years.

But... You are saying they can only move diagonally when going up or down?

What is it the pet people say? Don't buy - rescue.

Which has nothing to do with if IVF is a medical treatment, btw.
