To avoid sea ice, they entered an area they are legally allowed to enter… okay

Are you American though? Here in the UK, nobody really owns a plunger and they don’t need to, the plumbing is different, it doesn’t clog. Do need to own a toilet brush though, to wipe off the skidmarks, which is more rare in the US.

No chance I’m getting a username this simple on most platforms

Not a car, but I’ve got a bicycle light that does this. Turns on when it’s dark and also when you brake. So definitely possible

Haha, most people here do tech it seems. Well, me too.

People seem to think I’d be good at maths and my entire job is like maths. I’m not and I don’t view it that way. There’s a lot of problem solving and engineering, but I find it very creative and expressive

I would say you cannot exclude the ocean like that.

And not all homeless people are sleeping rough, some are in temporary accommodation etc

Not sure if there’s a scheme in place here in Scotland or UK, but I always get asked if I want a receipt or not for several years now. Receipts and plastic bags are only by request. The main exceptions seem to be restaurants and public transport.

However, my local supermarket has installed receipt scanning barriers at the self checkout - so those used to have optional receipts, but no longer. I guess profits before environment.
