There’s a global system for writing names on passports that doesn’t allow any diacritical marks whatsoever!! No apostrophes for surnames no é or ö for irish, french or german names. How bizarre, especially when passports are often used as proof of name.

Has this happened to anyone else? My most overwhelming emotion is curiosity. I’m so curious to see how this could possibly have happened.

I’ve been under the impression that since 2019 I’ve been on Virgin Media’s fastest broadband plan, the 1Gig. When streaming I’d be playing online games with 6+ people while also on a discord call, 5000 tabs open, AND live streaming to twitch often with upwards of 600 chatters. 🧵

I don’t think I would have ever knowingly subscribed to such a slow internet speed given the needs I had while streaming?

But also feeling that I’ve been duped by Virgin into having low speeds while thinking I have high speeds feels very conspiracy minded & insane.

My entire life has been a lie??

A customer service agent is going to listen back to the calls I had with customer service agents back in the day to try and figure out what happened but it’s very hard not to feel like I’ve been led astray for some time?

… ask why I’ve been being billed £75 a month lately (forgot to renew my plan when my sister died in Dec 23 😭) and they tell me I’ve NEVER been on a plan faster than 350Mbps???

I’m sorry what???

I was often disappointed with the quality of my streams, both when streaming to Twitch, and when watching streamed content including Netflix and Amazon Prime. I didn’t think there was much to do about it because I was already on the fastest possible plan. I call them today and…

oh it means that it’s meant in a positive way, not an insulting way! i’m aware this may not have been oxbridge but it still feels oxbridge coded to me, very common to discover that another student with a famous surname is actually part of The Famous Family etc.

very oxbridge coded (/pos)

We do, but not often. The Royal Meteorological Society acknowledges that what we call sleet is different from what USians do! How interesting!

I’m from the UK. Do USians call hail sleet? Over here hail is hard ice falling from the sky, snow is flakes and sleet is rain mixed with snow (not audible like hail)

I like board games and love wingspan and hadn’t even heard about Finspan until you posted about it!

Very silly of them not to be giving review copies out to people who love fish!
