@GeorgeCochrane1 I'm saying 1979 (second petrol crisis in UK)? S Reg in line, decimalized petrol price which is up a good bit from when I was pumping petrol in 1970-71 when a gallon of 4* was 6/8.

P6, Rover P6... Reserved.

@ronsterd89 I think it's called Happy Hour

Does anyone think that restaurants should offer a senior menu for older customers? 🍽️💁🏼‍♀️

@WaGtKi1 @redtailsforever @Avgeek_Jan @Delta Not the last few days LOL...

@redtailsforever @anthonyhumpage @Avgeek_Jan @Delta Not discounting your experience but Delta has been named the top on-time North American airline for multiple consecutive years.

🔴 @Delta is cutting in-flight service on 450 daily flights starting May 19, and frequent flyers are NOT happy about it. From that date, any flight under 350 miles in economy will get zero service. Nothing. Not even water. That covers a lot of routes people fly every single week for work. The old system had an express service on flights of 251 to 499 miles, which was coffee, tea, or water. That is now gone entirely for shorter hops. Now, to be fair, there is a flip side. Around 600 daily flights in the 350 to 499 mile range are actually getting upgraded from express to full beverage service. So more people overall will get a proper drink cart. First class keeps full service across the board regardless of distance. #Delta #DeltaAirLines #Aviation

@FrankBr05713205 I have my Dad's too.....

This was my calculator in college. On the plus side, it didn't need any batteries. Anybody else ever use one?

@CntQuilla Rather my attitude to tattoos and piercings.

Looks badass for the moment… but imagine explaining all that at 60

@Carsofglasgow1 Based on the distinctive styling and the blue "GTM" badge on the nose, this is a GTM Libra. (I cheated :-))

Some classic car snaps. Does anyone know what that red car is? (Gtm according to the badge)

@lady_valor_07 Nothing. Why do you need anything else? It's huge!

Fries aren’t available, what are you having with this burger?

@drjasonfung A story in one picture. Thank you.

When ice cream stops being ice cream. Natural ingredients are expensive, and ultra-processed, industrial scale ingredients (eg Guar gum) are cheap.

@rtmoulton @Avgeek_Jan @Delta AA has my bet but DL is gaining.

@anthonyhumpage @Avgeek_Jan @Delta They’re all in the race to the bottom

@PeterMcCormack @dailybritainonx Have you noticed how Ol' Gappy Tooth is keeping his trap firmly shut in photos these days?

@dailybritainonx No

What do you think?

@TheLucyShow1 If you asked me why I'd struggle to tell, but I find this video desperately sad.

POV: you visit your Nana at the senior living facility and see that they’re having their own Kentucky Derby race!! 🐎 🤣 All they’re missing are the hats!!! 👒

@kathy_glista @karunpal I found it extremely validating. I hope you find it helpful.

@anthonyhumpage @karunpal Thanks I just ordered this book. I very much appreciate the recommendation.

Intelligent people struggle with addiction. Their minds need more. They have obsessions nobody around them shares. Philosophy. Astronomy. Dostoevsky. Jazz. Quantum physics. Things they know deeply. Things they've gone so deep into that anything else feel like small talk. And small talk feels like suffocation. So... they drink. Work until 2 am. Doomscroll until they're numb. Because there is a gap. A gap between who you are and the conversations available to you. And it's one of the loneliest places a person can live.

@Glinner In all seriousness @Glinner, WTF has happened to Ireland? Setting aside old animosities, at its core it was always conservative (small c). But now, I gather Sinn Fein is pro-immigrant when I'd expect all the old fogies from PIRA to be out six packing rapists.

Again, stupid or pretending to be stupid? I feel like answering that question is the key to unravelling the whole thing.

@robbystarbuck I wish you hadn't posted this. I can't unsee it and wish I didn't now have to know how truly sick some people are.

These people belong in an asylum. Period.

@jojo789987 @AmericanAir @SecDuffy Why is it @SECDuffy's problem?

Wow!!! My family of 7 was supposed to fly on Spirit to Miami for $597.48 total. The @AmericanAir rescue fares are almost 10x that!!! @SecDuffy how is the average American family supposed to travel?#pricegouging

@drokane @owl_and_flowers @Con_Tomlinson You're not referring to all the military aged young men arriving in the boats, surely? Over 500 just this last week.

@anthonyhumpage @owl_and_flowers @Con_Tomlinson Many of them work in the NHS and associated sectors and care for and care for and wipe the backsides of elderly who bemoan their existence. The immigrants work harder than many indigenous entitled brits. Some are world expert surgeons and others poorly paid carers.

The NHS is dreadful. Every politician treats it as sacred, but it's never there when you need it. Maddening.

@CraigBrockie This may be supportive too: ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JA…

A meta-analysis of 17 studies covering 226,000 people found something simple: Every additional 1,000 steps a day was associated with a 15% lower risk of dying from any cause. Not 10,000 steps. Not gym memberships. Just 1,000 more steps than you took yesterday. The biggest gains showed up between 4,000 and 8,000 steps. After that, the curve flattens out. So if you're sitting at 3,000 a day right now - ... getting to 6,000 isn't a hobby. It's one of the most powerful things you can do for your health, full stop. No prescription. No subscription. No gym required. Just the most underrated movement on the planet.

@CraigBrockie LOL my grandmother's grandmother had never heard of ghee, and I'll bet yours hadn't either.

The most studied anti-inflammatory plant compound in modern science isn't a drug. It's a spice. Curcumin (the bright yellow pigment in turmeric) has been the subject of hundreds of human clinical trials, ... With the majority of musculoskeletal and metabolic studies showing benefits on inflammation markers. The catch? Plain turmeric powder is poorly absorbed. Most of what you swallow gets eliminated before it does anything. Three things change that: - A source of fat (curcumin is fat-soluble) - Heat (gentle warming activates the compound) - Black pepper (the piperine in it can boost absorption significantly) So that golden milk recipe with turmeric, ghee, black pepper, and warm milk that your grandmother's grandmother knew about? That wasn't a coincidence. It was bioavailability before anyone had a word for it.

"US healthcare is a much larger slice of GDP." where it provides many well-paying jobs, on which taxes are paid. n.b., we don't have to import too many nurses here. Respectfully there is one factor you have not included in your equation: The tens (hundreds?) of thousands of illegal immigrants who will swamp the already overburdened NHS.

@owl_and_flowers @anthonyhumpage @Con_Tomlinson He is right. We are both right. The NHS however is more sustainable. US healthcare is a much larger slice of GDP.

@Glinner @stellaomalley3 got that, and I am sure Irish and AZ laws are divergent ...Just made we wonder.

@anthonyhumpage @stellaomalley3 I'm not sure! But my point is that it'll bring people back and forth to the pub

I’m not sure what to make of this but I bet none of the equivalent drink in pubs now. Instead they drink cans at home. The level of alcoholism back then was off the charts. The alcoholic culture was everywhere in Ireland
