“tissues” vs “kitchen rolls” for anyone wondering what a paper towel is compared to a napkin.
I gotta say, I always found tissues just sub-par for the job. A kitchen roll (towel? sleeve? paper?) you just need to fold it once and it will hold against a storm
But you save on the need for needing detergent since the tomato acid will decalcify the bowl (I don’t understand chemistry)

192 used to be directory services but they changed it to 118, and then a bunch of copy cats used 118 as a prefix for all kinds of unofficial stuff. Plus 999 and 112 in the UK are still very iffy depending on where you are.
I’m going to downvote you anyway, not because what you said was untrue or hurtful or disrespectful in any way, but because you’re harshing the general unforgiving vibe of the room and I need to stand with my fellow mob.
Thanks for the informed context – I think my brain is just predisposed towards seeing such efforts as disingenuous, but I should learn to criticize companies after they do bad things, and not before.
Well, that sounds promising at least. I hope their interests continue to align with their consumer-base for another 20 years, and doesn’t nosedive into the CEO rot we’ve seen with Mozilla
I’m not really. Who are these guys and why am I hearing about them on every social media outlet.
They’re a company whose sole aim is to make money. Right now they’re in the goodwill phase of building community trust, but what’s their endgame? Is this an emerging market they’re cornering.
I know these sound like sarcastic questions, but I’m genuinely wondering.
This company sure has been making the rounds on the internet. I estimate maybe 1-2 years before they decide to cash in on their goodwill with some kind of monetary product
Does she command scores of armies at a whim, millions of black shadowed death daggers swooping to cast her foes to ghost in blanketed silence muffled only be the screams of her victims?
She sounds impossible sensitive enough that he’s probably always on high alert mindful of her needs
I agree, but I’d argue that these are isolating times and that my story is more the norm than the exception
It’s hard making friends as an adult though (read: people have kids or other dependents), and the most meaningful relationships I’ve had have been where we’ve all been bonded under the same circumstance. Yes it does sound Stockholm syndromic, but as someone who doesn’t actively seek sociability by default, being automatically inaugurated into the company of others is a huge passive social benefit for me.
Work is definitely socializing by sheer osmosis of being around others with common goals

I miss working in an office, getting the train to work, seeing the sky, banter with my colleagues, the odd drink after work, having a normal relationship with my boss.
WFH is torture for me. I don’t leave the house because I don’t need to. I rarely see my colleagues except on Teams, and my interactions with my boss are strained across several slightly passive-agressive (or not! they could be fine!) emails
I wake up in the morning and the only interaction I get is a green dot on my colleagues faces. I literally strike up conversations with the postman because I’m so starved of contact

The writing in that first panel is genuinely hilarious.
my mother who works at a high-class nursery full of milfs, calls them yummy mummies and I think that’s a good name
