Yep! You're either engaged enough with the story and media to just enjoy it for what it is (someone writing a new story with that premise you like) or you don't engage much at all and you don't care anyway. imo, each debut film with a new Bond is a treat.

At some point I added a food called “sod it” at 15k calories 😅

Makes sense - was mainly a moan 😅

There are far too many features now - all the newer ones seem to not be for people who make software (eg fractional story points)

Bizzarely, Drama taught me more about working in software than any computer subject has.

The A Level was mainly taught by an ex-PE teacher who had just qualified to teach ICT and was reading out the textbook in the class.

For reasons unknown at my comp, they convinced anyone who would get a C or more to instead study Business Studies at GCSE, not ICT. I wasn't falling for that rubbish and did Drama instead, then did A Level Computing to "learn more about Windows"

I had some excellent History education at school in the late 90s/early 00s. I think we tied in the slave trade to the industrial revolution, in KS3. They were already ability streaming History by age 13 and I got the better stuff. Other subjects would prioritise the D/C border cohort instead.

Wales were typically the most generous on asking people to pay for their own care so this tracks. I hope this spreads

As much as Teresa May’s politics do not align with my own, I was grateful that her blunder on the 2017 election temporarily made social care a current affairs topic that actually appeared in newspapers.

I’ve yet to see “Great British Care” and honestly it would be so lovely to see that kind of attention though.

Both are currently in an officially privatised state but with a lot of government subsidies. Demand for both have been increasing over time. There are competing demands via devolved government and local government vs national policy.

New to BlueSky: I'm making an effort here, sharing my art/ book/ cute pet pic/ etc. and not a click?🤔

Friend,
Many won't like OR share posts unless YOU click tiny "ALT" & add a description (alt-text) of image. It's for visually impared folks who use screen readers or who struggle reading tiny text.

Makes a lot of sense - also plenty of people claim or think they would prefer the higher price for less chaos, and what actually happens is they take the less chaos recommendation and then aggressively negotiate on price after this, disincentivising the non-chaos option to exist.

I’d be curious as to whether this is even a profitable option - maybe it is not, and that is why I only have inexpensive chaos options.
