    I've been headhunted for another job lol, they called me at 8pm last night. I've got a reputation for being a hard worker and was recommended.

    It's the same hours per week as my current job but start an hour later at 7am and finish at 3 like I do now, but I'd have to work till 3 on a Friday instead of leaving at 11am to make up to 40 hours.

    It's £2 an hour more.

    I'm quite happy where I am though and the boss might be a wanker in the new job. I'm leaning towards staying where I am.

    Can I pull weight just this one time and get my picture as the scarborough picture for the site? I took a great pic last weekend that I think sums up Scarborough best: https://photos.app.goo.gl/wxHuB86WgMRdjeSv8

    One day when I win the lottery I'm going to have one of these. Look at it! It's art. It's so fucking beautiful that I get feelings in my underpants when I look at it.

      Editing … BTW if you don't know motorbikes that bike is the ultimate bike. 250s go around corners like nothing else, and that is the greatest 250 ever made. Oh god just shut up Nod you're obssessed and nobody here cares

      Editing … It's an interesting design. Looks boxy almost. But since it's a race bike I assume it was made the way it is for a reason. P.S. the branding reminds me of Red Bull. But maybe that's bc Red Bull advertises their race cars a lot, so I keep thinking of them.

    Currently watching Glastonbury on iplayer. Alanis Morissette is still great. Her voice is so loud though that I wouldn't want to marry her. Imagine it: ARE YOU DONE IN THE SHOWERRRRR! Fuck off.

    Franz Ferdinand are the opposite. The music is good but the front man got nothing about him so it's completely uninteresting.

      Editing … On that note, I'm also really glad that you're all still sticking around. I understand that there is little incentive to stay/return regularly. I have some cool plans for the website, but I also want to establish the core foundation and features first (and get rid of bugs there). But frankly, I also can't stand looking at the mere visual design anymore. Some aspects are so goddamn outdated or "under construction" … So, there are some changes imbound in the next two or three releases. That's the plan.

      Editing … speaking of sticking around i wonder where klem went. I actually started theorizing all the most likely reasons she had for leaving us. 1) it was bc of some shit nod said. 2) it was bc of some shit I said. 3) she fucking died. 4) abducted by the aliens living in the center of the earth as seen on the why files 5) scientology 6) vacation (england has summers too I think) 7) or maybe she just took a break, i unno

      Editing … Yeah, some users have left us, it seems. But I will always stay here no matter what! This website is so much better than any other social network - it kinda feels a bit like Twitter, but much more organized since you can start discussions on certain pages instead of having everything in your timeline (and then there's the list-making part as well, of course). That way things won't get forgotten. It's so amazing (even though I'm often complaining about not being able to add pages, but I understand that the core foundation of the website needs to be finalized before the return of such a feature)!!

      Editing … Rukk it's number 1, shit I said. I like Klem but she's so biased towards veganism that it's clouding her judgement on most thing's. She will not accept the truth if it isn't vegan. Somehow she got it into her head that taking supplements to stay alive is healthier than eating steak with essential nutrients, and you cannot tell her any differently. Ignorance is dangerous imo. Last conversation we had she said a load of bollocks about Europe not having the manpower to beat Russia in a war. When I showed her facts and figures about armies and population numbers and said she was just plain wrong she never come back. Being wrong is a good thing in my opinion because it's an opportunity to learn something and grow, but only if your ego will allow it. If you're "always right" you'll never learn a thing. It's absolutely fine to be vegan if you want, and caring for the welfare of animals is a noble cause and we need good people like that in the world. But arguing nutrition and telling people not to eat what your body needs is dangerous and wrong in every way. Eggs was a particularly sore point with her. Eggs have choline which your brain needs, it's absolutely proven that eating eggs reduces the risk of dementia. But she would argue all day long saying eggs are bad and bring up 50 year old data on cholesterol that has since being dismissed as wrong but it fit her narrative so she clung on to it.

      Editing … yeah I was wondering why you kept bringing the veganism up. Like we known she was vegan for a while, why would you not be over it at this point, unless she was bringing it up constantly and telling us to cut meat. But to me it seemed like you were the one always bringing it up.

      Editing … Also, although I started eating chicken recently, I was wondering if that ultimately makes me sick too, amd meat really is poison in the end whether it's red or white. Essential nutrients my ass. Though it could simply be all the seasoning they add to it. Mcdonalds chicken strips contain onion powder according to the ingredients, not surprising, my body currently is RANK with the smell of onion bagel and it's really gross. Their chicken sandwiches don't have onion powder thankfully, ar least it's not listed separately as an ingredient. But it's too late, I will probably be smelling like this for another week at least.

      Editing … She baited me constantly into talking nutrition. I made a post saying I'm done talking it forever and she laughed when I finally bit. And that's fine, she wanted to talk about food so we did. Maybe I should learn from that and when people are wrong I should just ignore them and let them crack on.

    Tickets are available on resale for £400 each. We discussed it and decided no. There are no hotels for 50 miles and nowhere to park for nearly as far. The driving there, the travelling to the stadium, and everything in reverse is close to 20 hours if nothing goes wrong. No band is worth that money, tine and stress.

    Do uou know what sucks about getting old? Nobody wants to play football anymore. I'd love a kick about on tbe patk with my mates like we did everyday in the 90s.

    The only way I can even see my friends now is if we go out to town centre for beers and food. I like doing that, but deep down I just wanna lark about on the park playing footy. But they don't run anymore. Not even slightly, I don't think they even can.

    I'm a teenager stuck in a 47 year old body. But that you guys know already. There are local football clubs here for over 50s which I want to join but I'm too young right now.

    I'm a little bit sad about it, I'm not ready to give up on my dreams of playing for England.

    Oh fuck YouTube has started putting adverts into the middle of songs now.

    I just played the spin doctors little miss can't be wrong and 1 minute in I got an ad.

    I think it might be time to go back to listening to music the old way.

      Editing … My YouTube account isn't allowed to view videos anymore, on any device. I can watch videos in incognito mode. From what I can find, lots of people have had this issue, and YouTube's never really done anything to help anyone who reached out. I was able to get YouTube to respond until I detailed the problem, at which point they ghosted me.

      Editing … In my case, I only watch a handful of YouTube channels (of which 90% of those are inactive or don't offer the content I like anymore), so for me it's feasible to download every video. Of course, if YouTube is a big part of your entertainment life, then I agree that downloading every video beforehand is probably a hassle. Still, preservation is important... I still have a couple YouTube videos from 2006 on my PC that are now lost media.

      Editing … I reached out to YouTube's support for paid customers, since this concerns a paid membership, even if it was Google's money I spent. They said engineers are working on the issue and others have reported it too, and that I'd get Google Play credit to renew the membership. No timeline on how long the fix will take.
