@SlumLord I understand your frustration, fear and fury at the situation. I understand that right now it feels out of control. I know you have likely expirianced directly the effects of the pandemic and now more than anything you want people to just wake up and take it seriously. I understand...

It's a question I've been wondering too. The only benefit I can think of is paying privately at point of use means while they are well an American doesn't have to pay a regular tax to keep the system funded so if a tax would cost them $120 a year but they only use $40 a year they have $80 still...

I'm going to have to wait for the 16 finalists to be announced. As with anything who's entry requirements are based on how much noise the comminity makes about something, when we have 3 million+ backers but only about 5,000 invested enough at this point (if that) to be on Spectrum and make a...

Lol REC, the last time I was sent some in a subscription the email telling me I'd got my REC was so old it didn't display correctly on my browser. Feels like its not been so much abandoned as totally and utterly forgotten about.

I bought a Swiss multitool off Amazon while in University shared accomodation. I used to collect the things and must admit because of my attitude at the time, that they were tools that happened to have knives in them rather than knives that have tools in them, I didn't think twice about it but...

[September '21 sub flair - Avenger paints] Don't have an avenger so i'm going to have to Simon Cowell this one - its a no from me. I like to imagine this is leading up to an Aurora/Mustang paint set as I'd think they are among the most owned craft being the core starter packs... Then again the...
