Sun Tzu continues to influence hip-hop artists

Also, did you know that the Chinese word for “crisis” contains the characters for “danger” and “opportunity”…?

Took a class in drilling.

Beginning to think I should’ve stayed for the full half hour.

My good friend Jamie is going to help we with some decorating this weekend.

After much discussion, he persuaded me to keep it simple. A light, neutral colour.

And then we found this!

Decision made. 😂💙

I’ve bought a washer dryer that allows a truly authoritarian level of surveillance.

And like all good authoritarians, I shall surveil it to the maximum extent possible.

This doesn’t look like it’s been done very well.

Top Gear’s Quentin Wilson

The original and best. All the wit. All the charm.

None of the pettiness.

Didn’t court notoriety.

A proper journalist.

Rest in Peace. #RIP

And while we’re sorting out failing public institutions: #education.

I’d introduce mandatory Civics lessons to teach British values and make The Viz the core textbook

A shining beacon of British culture

One compromise

L20 - catering college restaurant in Bootle are doing a Xmas Lunch from 25th November

Food is amazing - £27.50 per person from three courses. 12-2pm

Definitely worth considering for a Sunday Roast/Thanskgiving/Festive vibe. But very British.

Chang is almost certainly the Legal Representative of Nexperia China, in addition to any role he has as VP.

Under PRC law, the Chinese legal representative must be a PRC citizen, and they’re the ones who hold the company “chops”

Like the one used in the statement Nexperia China released (p3)

I think it’s you who needs to up their game, pal.

Guy Fawkes Night

Where Neds across the kingdom of Scotland burn 🔥 tyres 🛞 and 🪵

The occasion was originally an expression of anti-Catholic vitriol, celebrating the failure of the assassination of James I

Hence the reason such bonfires are popular in certain communities.

Ordered the extendable dining table and chairs (6 not 7 that Chat GPT has given us)

Rough mock up of dining room

Absolutely killing it on the Black Friday deals

Glad I waited to order furniture and appliances

6 dining chairs, an accent chair and 2 office chairs.

Dear #youtube

I would like to complain in the strongest possible terms concerning some of the advertisements presented to me by your #marketing algorithms.
