No I do not want to back to the office
£550 on commuting costs and time wasted. Toxic bullying, controlling office environments which seem the norm these days. My last job the office was silent and we kept our heads down. No chat, banter and we had to excuse ourselves to go to the toilet. I would have thought that with the 'green' agenda the Govt should be pushing more for working at home and no 40 minute journeys around the M25 which takes 2 hours sat there full of single occupant muppets in their big SUVs.

saw a show about the drone operators
a lot of them live in vegas, work normal 8 hour shifts, go shopping, do some bowling, go see a movie, commute to creech air force base where they sit their fat arse in front of a screen and pilot a drone on the other side of the world, incinerating targets like this poor blokes and his kids, then maybe get a doughnut on the way home from krispy creme.
amazing they somehow failed to win over the afghani populace, ay?

Not dissimilar
but at work in the early 2010s, I happened to overhear a USAF officer discussing the difficulty that the B2 crews were having flying Afghan combat missions out of Whiteman AFB in the US, dropping bombs and missiles half a world away then going back home to their families.
To which my internal reaction was: "Good".

Terrorists
Suicide vest in a packed marketplace or a hellfire missile gatecrashing a wedding. Both are acts of terrorism.

Nothing new here
move along...
Seriously, the US has a long history of extrajudicial killings using drones based on metadata, sometimes just mobile phone data, which is sketchy at best if there are no eyes and ears on the ground. It's a great way of ensuring you create more 'terrorists', which in turn is a great way of selling more drones, particularly if you aren't able to be held accountable for your actions, which of course the US has been careful to engineer.

Yuzu, apparently.
I can't figure out how they mistranslated ユズ (Yu-Zu) as knob (which is usually ノブ {No-Bu}) for a doorknob.
Or ちんちん (chinchin) for a willy. Which is fun when out drinking.
Maybe it was translated via Chinese or something.

A nice Spinal Tap moment from their Discogs profile:
Mayte Mateos continued to work as "Baccara", sometimes calling herself "New Baccara" (which had nothing to do with the New Baccara that María Mendiola would later form as she went on her solo career).
María Mendiola's group was named New Baccara to set it apart from Mayte Mateos's disbanded "Baccara". "New Baccara" began to release their own personal material, as well as several re-recordings and re-recording remixes of "Baccara" tracks.
"New Baccara" then dropped the "New", becoming simply "Baccara" but, still staying separate from Mayte Mateos's old one. Soon after, while María Mendiola & Marissa as "Baccara" continued to release tracks, Mayte Mateos formed another duo with Cristina Sevilla, named "Baccara 2000". After releasing an album & several singles (including a re-recording remix of "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie" called "Yes Sir, I Can Boogie '99"), this "Baccara 2000" dropped the "2000" and also went simply by "Baccara".

Short bit of music
by Hugo Montenegro for the film The Wrecking Crew featuring Dean Martin and Sharon Tate
The music hasn't been released so using clips is necessary. Starts at 53s to cut out Dean's singing.

They are commentators, not actually playing cricket.
There were a few streakers, a bird got hit and bees invaded, they were the highlights. I thought cricket, like golf, was another way for men to avoid the family.

I might have put a trance gate on the hihat, mind you. Force that fucker into the same time signature. But it would be a disaster if I tried to do any two of the 5 things he's doing as well as sing. I have to psyche myself up to record myself turning more than 2 knobs at a time.
