@anon_opin 99.6% of people who use median instead of "average" don't know what "median" means

Betting shops should only be allowed in areas where the median income is north of £80k. Any less than that and they are preying on people who can't afford to lose hundreds every month.

@TerribleMaps Wait a second isn't that just how fitting data points to an n-degree polynomial works!!!

Believe it or not, Germany’s 5 largest cities lie perfectly on a 4th-degree polynomial

@trussliz Liz, no one has read it - and for good reason. Because you're mad as a box of frogs

Have you read my book 'Ten Years to Save the West'? If not, you can get it here: amzn.to/4dn7edC

.@casadellibro Hola! Pregunta - Si encargo un libro para que me lo envíen a vuestra tienda de Valencia, ¿cuantos días tengo para recogerlo?

Here we go, as of 2026 i am now going to approve a referendum to return to the EU. even though we blocked any chance of being a sovereign nation for 10 years over both parties, didn’t give it a chance and smashed illegal immigration 10 fold to import over 5 million people since brexit. @grok what is britains population increase since 2016

Keir Starmer: There is no British security without Europe, and no European security without Britain. That is the lesson of history—and it remains today’s reality. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

MUPHRY'S LAW states that any criticism you make of someone else's writing or proofreading will include an error.

@RobertJenrick It's interesting that you don't think that every day is "time for the truth"

It’s time for the truth.

@real_lumethos @anon_opin Truth is, btw, no one cares about the th vs s thing in spain, if for no other reason than because they're used to Latin Americans speaking like that The "v" vs "b" thing on the other hand can mean the difference between being understood and not being understood...

@rob_onesky @anon_opin hmm. fair game. but you have to draw a line somewhere. you can't pronounce *every* foreign word natively. no one does this, no one will do this. plus, "jalapeno" doesn't have a disputed pronunciation across dialects in english the way ibiza does, and many place names

Pronouncing the Spanish C or Z with a 'th' sound, whilst technically correct, makes you sound like a prick. Barthelona, Choritho etc. The only exception is Ibiza.

@real_lumethos @anon_opin I do actually agree. And I've made the same argument myself lol. My take on it is, if there's an easy substitute sound in English, you might as well use it rather than not use it.

@real_lumethos @anon_opin It's absolutely trivial to substitute the sounds - there is a direct and almost identical "th" sound in English. Do you say "gialapeeno" for jalapeño? If not, why not? It's the same thing.

@rob_onesky @anon_opin If you are actually speaking the language, sure. If you are speaking English, it is dumb to use a native pronunciation when it has an English one. Everyone pronounces 99% of things with the anglicised pronunciation, just do it all the time

@NeilTheRobin1 @ukhomeoffice ...he says, with a photo taken in what looks like France lol

@ukhomeoffice If your christian you get arrested for praying on the street -however this is allowed-two tier in every way-

No one should have to live a life in fear because of the faith they practice. That is not the Britain we stand for. In addition to existing support, up to £10 million in new funding will protect synagogues, Jewish faith schools and community centres across the UK.

@anon_opin More of a threequel but: 28 Years Later And yes, this is the hill I choose to die on

No film sequels have missed the entire point of their original as much as Rambo.

@anon_opin Cinemas need to not have an apostrophe in them

Cinema's need to have the end time of movies as well as the start time on their website. I don't want to do the math.

@EarlofLeuven @anon_opin Go for it, dude

@rob_onesky @anon_opin Fine. But then in light of what we now know and what we accept is arbitrary, we're all to reconsider our classifications. At the very least it shouldn't be off-limits. Ditto for a year being 365 days long and requiring leap year day to keep everything roughly in order

Gas planets are not planets, they are just big balls of gas, I know they orbit the sun but so do some meteors. Unless you can stand on the surface it shouldn't count.

@EarlofLeuven @anon_opin Well, I guess like many things that happened thousands of years ago, it's a lil bit arbitrary

@rob_onesky @anon_opin So if the ancient Greeks managed to spot a few meteors changing position relative to the stars they too would now be "planets"? Seems incredibly arbitrary then.

@anon_opin In all fairness, the aliens were a bit of a problem too

The cause of all the problems in the Alien films isn't the aliens. It's capitalism.

@RobertAnim8er Games need to ditch their fixation with parry and dodge mechanics as an unavoidable part of combat See also: settlement building as a mandatory part of the game

what opinion about video games will have you like this

@astrofalls Take my money IMMEDIATELY

Since a lot of people are confused about what this is, every telescope here is owned by a person. Each person can log in remotely to use their telescope to capture photos of space from our dark skies!
