@UnderSneege Huh? The Citroen C4 Picasso can fit 7 seats, all supporting isofix.
What are you talking about?

@imanonpublisher Yep seen an uptick in the last couple of days.

I was struggling to recover the earnings from this page. Starting in mid-February, earnings, RPM, reach, and everything else dropped.
I stayed consistent, trusted the process, and kept posting.
Yesterday, after more than a month of frustration, the posts started earning decent money again.
Has anyone else noticed that earnings are going up again on Facebook?

@iamrofe I remember going to the States when I was a kid and you could get a gallon for $0.99

@dotsokt @DRIPXERATH Had a page with 1.6k followers just get approved.

@TheCoolestCool Totally agree as a Canadian entrepreneur living in the UK, I think a lot of this would equally apply here.

@petecodes @lkr Never understood the hate. If you don't want to buy cereal just don't go.
I seem to recall they had a bunch of different types of cereal available along with different milks that were not common at the time.

Wow this has to go down as one of the most painful business stories of all time
These guys opened a cafe
Had to close it
Surely lost tons of money on the whole thing
Let the domain expire
Someone else picked it up and turned it around for £80k!!!

Remember that phase when a couple of guys opened a cereal cafe in Brick Lane? It closed a few years ago, but... they got so much PR at the time that the domain name recently sold for £80k due to the strength of all the links it had picked up.

@jessethanley Haha I went to one of those when I lived in Japan.
Had a contest with some of my students to see who could eat the most.
I won, by eating something like 120!

@TheMurkyDepths Have you tried any ad networks other than AdSense?
Also unfortunate that a UK audience is worth a lot less to advertisers than an American one.
English
Google are killing smaller sites that aren't part of big organisations.
Ad income is abysmal. Views and site visits are good (except where Google use AI to steal content and suppress views) but this is painful. Id love to *not* have ads but not enough revenue to keep site going

@BlondeOfWar Survey results for this very question: brilliantmaps.com/us-south/
English
This is the most accurate depiction of the South that I've seen. I'm in the orange area.
Is there a better map breakout?

@HenpeckedHal That they would in fact like the taste of my ice cream.
English
Simple facts I'm terrified of my toddler discovering:
- public parks don't randomly close
- tv's don't run out of batteries
- there is no actual world record for "fastest at putting away toys"
- chicken the animal and chicken the food are one and the same
Got any to add?

A few people are asking if it was the 'Cereal Killer Cafe' guys that still owned the domain name. Answer: it doesn't look like it.
The domain expired in 2026, before being 'caught' and auctioned, reaching £80k.

@danbarker @tomhfh @emsbooks1 Nothing says low class like a 1 bed flat for a million £ rightmove.co.uk/properties/172…

@tomhfh @emsbooks1 I love the Barbican, but worth noting it was never built with 'lower class' in mind. Specifically for well paid City workers.

@xruiztru This is part of a series of comparisons I made: brilliantmaps.com/gdp-2000-vs-20…

@JeremiahDJohns @Noahpinion It will eventually exceed 100% of GDP.
English
It's very funny to me that this policy is pretty much a mathematical guarantee that pensions will take up an increasing share of British GDP, every single year, forever, and it's politically impossible to change.

Here, in a room in Westminster, MPs practice their steps.
Forward.

Meanwhile, at the exact same moment in Tehran, a small group of newly promoted regime leaders meets to plan their own move forward...
