Cans are better. Economically, environmentally and for keeping your beer in good condition. I've seen a sea change here in the UK. Years ago, pretty much any premium / expensive craft beer was sold in bottles. I've had brewers tell me that they would have preferred to sell in cans, but...

Yeah, in the UK, Blanton's and Weller are very difficult to get on the primary market and even then the prices have been going up. The secondary market is crazy and apparently it's a thing now that people are buying UK allocated bottles to flip back in the States. I've not managed to get a...

Check out Chinatown:- https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/47/chinatown It's one of my favourite games. It's like the endgame of Monopoly, but without the hour plus it takes to get there. It's also played over a fixed number of rounds so it doesn't go on forever.

These movies are genuinely my favourite two 80's action movies. Sure, there are a bunch of others that are objectively better, but these both capture the 80's vibe perfectly. I guess I slightly prefer Running Man, partly because it has a bit more plot going on, but mainly because I love the...

Without spending silly money:- Gin (Hernö Juniper Cask) Rye (Pikesville) Scotch (Ardbeg Uigeadail) Sweet Vermouth (Antica) Campari

Disappointing. The whole thing was an afterthought to Phase 3 and so is of no consequence. Didn't do much with Natasha's backstory, aside from setting up the supporting characters. The baddies were crap. Taskmaster especially was wasted. I was expecting Red Guardian to bring some LOLz but...

Love it. I especially like how some of the best gags are super dry and low key. "Print is dead." "Who does your taxes?"

I've said it before and I'll say it again. The solution to this is simple. Female sports. Either existing organisations rebrand from women's to female, or they create a new seperate female category. If they don't, somebody else will. I think most organisations know this, and they also know...

For some, no amount would ever be enough. For some people, a relatively small amount of money could transform their lives and allow them escape the poverty trap. Pay off debt, get a qualification, move to a nicer area, buy some decent clothes for job interviews. For others, any amount of...

I think it is inevitable that there will be a female category for sports. Whether there is still a womens category alongside it remains to be seen. The real question is how will it happen. The current major women's sporting organisations are hesitant to just rebrand themselves for females as...

Meh, the new normal will be mostly the same as the old normal. The biggest change will be some of the increase of home working becoming permanent. There will be a restructuring of some businesses and a rebalanced of some aspects of the economy as a result. A small percentage of people will...

Good question. I think there are a lot of similarities between the two. They both tend to deliver a lot of dry humour punctuated by manic outbursts. Bill was better at pure deadpan, Eddie at voices / characters. I'd go with Bill as I think he has better acting chops and hasn't fallen off...

What's the breakdown of this group? The acronym can include a bunch of people who are not necessarily homosexual, bisexual or transgender. Asexual, i.e. People who don't experience sexual attraction, or aromantic, who don't experience romantic attraction. Neither of those things are really...

I've thought like this for a long time. Civilised countries should band together and impose these sort of sanctions on countries with poor human rights records. If they want to behave like a bunch of backwards savages, that's their perogative, but if the want to sit at the table with the grown...

I think free or subsidised higher education would be a good thing. Places should be limited and applicants should be selected based on academic merit. The number of places subsidised for each course should be based on need. If you have a load of organic chemistry graduates who can't find work...

I think this is somewhat self fulfilling. If you're a straight guy and you 'spot' a transwoman, by default you consider them unattractive because they're male. If you don't identify them as trans then you wouldn't think about it. I have no idea what percentage of transwomen 'pass'. I do know...

I doubt this is true. It seems to me that the MCU is putting a lot of effort into a 'get woke, go broke' strategy. We're gonna have Captain Marvel, Ms Marvel and Ironheart all vying for the title of biggest Mary Sue. Some of the other stuff looks interesting, I'm pretty excited about all the...

This has been bubbling under for ages. As has been pointed out, the success of some racial and ethnic minority groups undermines the narrative that they are all oppressed to the point that they cannot achieve anything. Once you accept that different ethnic groups have different values and...

My beard it pretty long. Tried beard oil, it definitely makes a difference. I prefer beard balm which is similar but it's solid and you have to melt it to use it. I've stopped using both though. Now I use a hair mask. It's basically 'leave in' hair conditioner. I prefer the way it feels and...

It's similar in the UK. There are twice as many Asians (Indian, Pakistani and Bangladeshi) as black people, yet if you look at culture and media you wouldn't think it. You would think black people made up a lot more than the <5% of the population that they do. I think a similarity between...
