Sounds like a nice life? I don't have much idea what beet farming is like...

Farming what though?

If you have a bit of time and are keen to improve then I can recommend watching Jorbs (YouTube or Twitch). He plays StS a lot and explains his decision making process. He's also a good person.

Small mention for Darktable as an alternative to Lightroom.

She probably has more surplus cash for lawyers than the Scottish Government.

I agree there; I find it frustrating when people who know that public transport is the better option in the long run never use it when it's inconvenient yet also complain that it doesn't get better.

It will get better if we all use it. We all need to take that step though.

You're also having to place that confidence in every other person you're sharing the road with, as well as their dealers and mechanics.

I know most people do have some options, so I should have specified that mine are particularly good. Cheap, fast, comfy, and easy.

I'm going to repeat Ursula K Le Guin and Margaret Atwood because it's hard to overstate how much of everything is in their works. Iain (M) Banks I'll also echo, but will add China Miéville because there aren't enough anarchists in this thread.

I appreciate you naming more than one female author!

Reynolds sometimes lacks a touch on the human side of his work. That being said, I've not read much of his more recent novels so he might have matured since finishing his 10 year contract.

I remember reading an interview of his where he said he wrote his contemporary fiction in order to support his science fiction writing. Whilst they're still good novels, his regular works didn't have as much of his soul as his SF.

The most dangerous part of the journey is still the drive to and from the airport (except for lucky folks like me who have mass transit options).

Thanks for asking about split on 18! I assumed it was about not trying to marry your highschool sweetheart or something!

Would be much cooler if it was a knife holder.

Yo, the last major outbreak of violence against the government was when the far right lost an election. This is pretty damn on the ball.

Good to know since dried are much easier for me to get hold of.

Do you use fresh or dried curry leaves?

Cocoa in your chilli, chilli in your coffee, all sorts going on in this thread
