here is one, so you know what you are looking at:
Everyone agrees the trains are bad and nobody agrees about why.
Nationalised for forty years and they were not better. Ownership is not the variable.
Depends which line. Some of it is ownership, most of it is that track and trains are run by different people.
Every decision is made on a shorter timescale than the thing it affects. Defer the maintenance, leave before the bill lands.
no likes, no ranking, nothing to win.
create an account or sign in to crib.
Being late is a decision that your time is worth more than mine. There is no version of it that isn't that, however pleasantly it gets phrased.
Museums should explain less. I have started reading the wall text before looking at the thing, which means I am now being told what to see before I have seen it.
Everybody says they want politicians to admit mistakes and everybody punishes the ones who do, and I include myself in that.
Cookie banners were meant to give people control and have instead taught an entire continent to click the nearest button without reading anything. We have trained a reflex, not a decision.
Sport is the only place left where we are collectively fine with someone being obviously, measurably better than everyone else, and I find it interesting that we cannot tolerate that anywhere else.
Weddings have got completely out of hand and everybody involved seems to be having a worse time than they would at a decent party.
Renting is not throwing money away, and I say that as somebody who spent eight years feeling ashamed about it. You are buying the ability to leave.
Meetings are not the problem. Nobody distinguishing a meeting for deciding from a meeting for informing is the problem. Half the frustration in any organisation is people arriving in different modes and spending an hour discovering it, then booking a follow-up to do the thing they came to do.
Shah rukh is indeed the last of the stars. Prove me wrong ✌🏻
I have started saying no to things eleven months in advance and it turns out absolutely nothing happens.
Reading fiction makes you more empathetic, or at least better at imagining that other people have an interior life at all, which may be the same thing.
Inheritance decides more about how someone's life goes than education does, and we spend all our time arguing about schools because that is the lever we are allowed to touch.
unpopular opinion but most "food deserts" are actually time deserts. the shop is there, people are working two jobs.
We treat mental health at work like it is about resilience training when it is mostly about workload and whether your manager is a decent person.
something you reckon. a gripe, a hunch, a hill you will die on. serious or not.
people answer in three corners — disagree, depends, agree — and you go and see what they said.
anyone can join with an email address. it is used to send you a code and nothing else.
what all this does to your head, and what to do about it.
