Also eclair means "lightning", and ensuite means "afterwards".

Weird language.

Fun fact - croissant means "waxing" or "increasing", it's so named because it's shaped like a crescent moon.

Yeah I'm going to take pronunciation lessons from a guy who presumably says "aboot" instead of "about".

I think I was saying it both ways, come to think of it. And I definitely wasn't pronouncing...

Nah I just typed it wrong, I'm pretty sure I was saying Francais correctly. At least nobody corrected me!

Language is something you can study in a lazy way. I can watch YouTube channels to get the basics, once I'm up to a certain level I can start watching French films with English subtitles, then I can...

Well Burning Spear is Jamaican, so yeah he sings in English, and so did a lot of other artists at the festival. There were times I was the only person singing along!

I'd kinda rather speak...

That's the one. I wasn't certain when I said oil rig but couldn't really think what else would be out there, which is really dumb considering I just did the Portsmouth to St Malo ferry route, which...

Well for one, the Pitcairn Islands are not in, but the British State has very little influence in their affairs. They're pretty much independent, but the UN considers them part of the UK. There's a...

I might learn French so I can travel better, we don't do reggae festivals like this. I made friends, they could speak good English, but it was difficult not being able to engage in their group...

Best few days of my life. J'adore France.

This is who I went to see...

Just come back from a pub quiz. My moment of glory? How many countries are there in the United Nations?

Just instantly and casually write 193 down, nothing to see here.

Only person in the pub...

This band I'm going to see, they're playing in England too this coming weekend, but tickets for that festival are the same price as tickets for French festival + ferry to France... and the French...

It's so bad I'm fleeing to France.

For a few days. To see a reggae band.

Au revoir.

As distasteful as that is, presumably the other lady is a relative? They're both grinning like it's a completely normal photo op.

I'm sorry but if I were to die, and having me buried in a parking lot provided financial benefit to the family I've left behind, I wouldn't feel disrespected. I'd feel nothing because I'm dead, but...

Holy shit was that the voice of reason from Oskar?

He's doing exactly what Labour did. Labour divert funds to Labour regions, the Tories come along and redivert them to Tory regions. Labour don't care about Tory voters, and the Tories don't care...

Yeah, don't feel like you have to tell the whole story or anything.

I mean, idk about dark matter, it has always felt like a mathematical hack to explain gravity as we observe it. So what, now it's also a hack to explain angular momentum as we observe it?

Dark...

This would be a reasonable viewpoint if Sunak was a chump. But he's not. He's clearly a very intelligent and charismatic man, at least that's the impression he appears to be giving those who meet...

This is absolutely ridiculous. If the Conservative party were truly racist, then no way in hell would they let a black man come close to the leadership.



That's fair, but on the flip side,...

Sure, but if you're saying that the black person should think in a particular way because he's black, you're applying expected behaviour to that person because of their skin colour. When you say "My...

Interesting fact - according to observation, there are 7% more galaxies rotating in one direction than the other.

Implication - the universe already had angular momentum when it was born. But...

I've only got an inside view from one of these party member meetings. It's a very small sample size, obviously, so you can't take much from it. But it seems that Sunak is putting to bed any doubts...

Some Tory voters are racist. That's because Tory voters are a large group of different people. Fun fact - some West Ham Utd fans are paedophiles, and some ginger haired people are actual Nazis....
