there's also the weird situation where Aberdeenshire Health & Social Care Partnership has cancelled funding for the adult autism pathway, but Aberdeen City and Moray HSCPs haven't, so NHS Grampian patients can only access autism services if they live in Aberdeen or Moray

i hadn't seen any LOTR film until last year, and watching them ended up serving mainly as a way for me to learn how one famous quote i was already familiar with was narratively connected to the next famous line i'd heard a million times

The year is 2025. There are three social networks remaining. They are run by Dweeb Lowtax, Tweaker Lowtax, and Girlboss Lowtax. You have to pick at least one.

I never saw any of the LOTR films until last year but somehow had managed to absorb the plots and most of the dialogue through cultural osmosis over the years

Inspired by a post I just saw in which someone admitted they hadn’t seen a single episode of Friends nor the film Love Actually… what cultural hole do you have that’s a bit weird for your generation?

I’ll go first: I haven’t seen Dirty Dancing.

it can be such a gamble with them as so often they're a bit anaemic with just a few beansprouts inside and nothing else, but I gotta say that aldi's chicken & veg spring rolls are A+ tier

I just think it's interesting that the folk that have started claiming that it's bad to have slurs for AI are all folk who do nothing but post about AI tech and have never shown any interest in inclusive language or social justice until now

Cigarettes were specifically designed to make you addicted to them. They were designed to make you feel good while they slowly rotted you from the inside. Anyway, what were you saying about AI?
