Turned 2 a few weeks back. I think we're entering, or have just entered the terrible twos. Fun fun fun.

Son broke my favourite mug. And he then threw my phone at my wrist, which hit my watch and scratched the phone screen. Yeah, its been a fun one.

I've stopped looking at my notifications on Reddit, it's just too anxiety inducing for me. Thankfully I've not had that same problem here, although I'm sure it'll happen eventually.

Hope you feel better.

Maybe I could use that time to watch The West Wing? I've heard nothing but good things about it but...who's got the time.

I dunno, I could spend a good long while playing nothing but Football Manager if I didn't have to worry about being anywhere else.

I mean, is this in real time because I won't lie, I bet there's an awful lot of 'boring' mixed in with all the amazing moments.

Don't know about how it is in the US, but in the UK the idea of people rushing to finish their transaction fills me with dread. I've worked in a supermarket with self service and the general public really struggles with them.

It was the only of my three cars that hasn't been totalled by a driver not paying attention when driving past it.

Yup. Two cars have been written off whilst parked down my street inside two years. Love it!

Don't set yourself alight to keep yourself warm. Not always easy, but it is something I believe. You can only do so much if someone isn't willing to help themself.

The last game that truly gave me the feeling you described is Lies of P. It was my favourite game of 2023 and the 60 or so hours I put into beating it were very well spent.

I don't for one second doubt that there's some serious problems with Ofsted and how they conduct their inspections. I do however wonder if those being inspected are in the best position to decide if we need to blow it up.

Definitely spending the day with my young children, going to a soft-play and then going out for a lunch filled with 'no no no don't throw that' before we return home for a fun evening of 'daaaaaaady, daaaaaaaady' entirely on my own in total silence apart from the sound of my TV with a videogame on, a fresh cup of tea in my mug and maybe a takeaway pizza on the way.

Might also explain why Cricket is so popular. Obviously it still requires a fair amount of physical exertion but it's definitely a bit more laid back than something like Rugby.

Prefer digital because space is a factor in my house. I love the idea of physical, and I'll usually go that way for art or reference books. However paperback equivalent I'm always going digital.

Although if I really love a book I'll always look to add it to my bookshelf at some point.

I've only seen one or two WSL games on TV but I'm always happy to see more sport content on Lemmy so good luck.

I can see both arguments for and against voting for a third party. Ultimately it's your call and you're gonna do what you're gonna do. I do think it's a sign of a deeply broken system when people can legitimately think that casting your vote for another candidate is a waste though.

I'm in the UK and whilst it's not exactly the same an awful lot of people will say that a vote for anyone that isn't Labour is a vote for the Big Bad Tories. And whilst I do agree that it probably doesn't help get rid of the Tories it's also a pretty bad indictment of how broken the electoral system is.

Sign me up!

I also think this changes depending on the job you're going for. There's absolutely no reason I'd try to be funny or interesting on my entry-level order picker job. Assuming they even bother to look at my CV they're mainly looking to see if I've got any work history.

If I'm applying for something creative, or maybe something that requires a bit of personality I'm sure it'd go over better... although even that is a double-edged sword.

Totally with you. I'd do away with the monarchy in a heartbeat if I could..but I'll never cheer on someone going through a rough time in this way. Hope he makes a full recovery, same with Princess Katherine.

What's wrong with the Dotrice version? Granted I've only listened to part of AGoT with Dotrice but I thought he was fine.
