What are you reading at the moment?
  • I'm reading The Blacktongue Thief. It's not bad but it's no Joe Abercrombie.

    Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes?
  • I'm an occasional diver myself (perhaps I should call myself an 'avid diver' in honour of Reddit drama) and it seemed to me that most of the poor decisions were punished as you'd imagine.

    I just enjoyed the sense of dread the film captured and I thought the father was a great character, well portrayed.

    England denied by rain as Australia retain Ashes
  • England have not lost a home series since 2001. That seems worth fighting for!

    Why Is King Charles Set To Get A Pay Rise From UK Taxpayers?
  • You are entirely right but it won't matter to state it here. Despite the current parlous state of the UK economy having nothing to do with the monarchy, plenty are outraged by the institution regardless, even if it is a large net contributor to the economy (yes, despite the rebuttal video linked in similar threads).

    There is a lot of anger towards the royals and Lemmy seems particularly irate.

    King Charles to receive huge pay rise from UK taxpayers
  • Evidently a lot of monarchy haters here and the downvotes suggest that facts won't change entrenched opinions.

    That's a shame because facts are facts:

  • The royal family bring in a lot more money than they cost. They are a cornerstone of our tourism industry; a critical part of our economy.

    That's why.

  • I am a big chai fan, UK based, and I'm always on the lookout for a good blend. Tick Tock used to make a delicious vanilla chai rooibos and clipper still make a lovely chai blend.

    I wonder if anyone has good recommendations, from any source, either tea bag or loose leaf?
