Calling myself out today. Not sure where my head was at but made some terrible judgement calls.

I've said it once and I'll say it again - tories are fucking scum and if you voted for them you are a cunt.

Got home to this yesterday - luckily not my beemer under the rubble.

Apparently the result of an attempted three-point turn by an elderly neighbour. He also ploughed through the garage on the opposite side of the road.

Yeah I kind of lost interest in the story once I had to make a choice who to stick with.

Come to think of it I don't remember the last time I finished an open-world game. I always get too distracted and plough 100s of hours into it and then give up before the story finishes.

I could never bring myself to finish FO4 for some reason (I think I got quite close) and am now tempted by the DLC. Does it add enough to the game to bother?

I'm so addicted to Tropico 5 on PS4 right now even though it's quite shit.

Doesn't this reading of what is "newsworthy" ignore that the news not only reports on events but informs public perceptions of them.

Surely if the mainstream media chose to narrativise a series of international anti-austerity protests as an important part of a wider anti-establishment movement then people would be more likely to take it seriously. It's a bit circular to say that a protest isn't newsworthy because it didn't achieve anything.

they bring in more in tourism than we pay etc etc etc.

Less hilarious given that Sansa Stark's sexual history consists solely of rape.

Edit: I seem to be a little late.

Didn't manage to get one in this week but nice entries all - good job @mi7rennie

I'm so addicted to agar.io

Picked up a new saddle from @GreatSince78 the other day. Straightforward transaction and a really top guy - would highly recommend. Cheers!

Granted I'd had a few beers but there were a lot of shitheads trying to kill me/themselves on Upper Street last night.

Particularly memorable were the group of three women standing around in the middle of the road, who started yelling at me in Spanish when I shouted "Hello?"

the drawback of being born into extreme wealth

yeah I gave up

Me too. I'm not voting for Sadiq 1st and maybe not at all.

I think they can can be granted further powers from Parliament - the Greens for instance would seek more comprehensive London specific rent control powers.

The below from Berry is interesting and telling:

In some previous years, London Greens have recommended people voted for Ken Livingstone second because we had a good working relationship with him on the Assembly. This year we set out some policy positions and offered both the 'frontrunner' candidates the chance to talk to us about them and seek our recommendation, but neither responded to this and I was surprised that Sadiq Khan said he didn't want our recommendation this year and didn't meet up. Because of this we have made no positive recommendation this year, and this is our statement about that: https://london.greenparty.org.uk/news/2016/04/19/greens-rule-out-recommending-second-preference-candidate-for-mayor/

Good enough for me.

Sian Berry did an AMA on Reddit yesterday and came across very well. I'm yet to understand what platforms Khan and Goldsmith are running on aside from "I'm better than that guy".

Too many close calls the last couple of days, one of which almost resulted in very serious injury. I don't often feel like a vulnerable road user when I'm on my bike but maybe I need to reassess that.

For real? Fuck.

It must be awful for her, not least because many will now be branding her a liar even more readily than before.

Ched Evans wins his appeal.

Yeah I feel like I'll be less lucky as I don't have any particularly good photos. I bought it on here so I've asked that guy if he has any pics in the hope that some of the marks might match up.

I get the feeling the police will just tell me to jog on if I call them up and say "I think I've found my saddle on eBay but I have no proof".

I'll stick a bid in and see what happens.

Yeah I think that's what I'll do. Is there a legitimate way to do it other than to lie about not receiving it? I called the police and have a crime number.

I guess that's a win-win. If it isn't mine I get a cheap saddle (assuming it stays around the £10 mark), and if it is then fuck that guy.

It's a saddle. Haven't got any photos that are good enough to cross-ref.

It's a 24 hour listing which appeared 2 days after mine was nicked, shitty description and starting at a tenner. The guy hasn't ever sold anything and he suddenly has two high-end saddles to sell.
