Whether you need a rush of death-defying adrenaline, a relaxing unwind from the world, or something inbetween, there should be something for you here!
Simply select your activity level from one of the categories to get started, or use the box below to search the site using DuckDuckGo.
Motivation: if you were confused about why certain politicians supported Brexit even though it was clearly not going to be good for the country, you can get some idea of their motivation when the knighthoods and damehoods are announced. So there's their reward. Meanwhile we get the "freedom" to buy wine in pints instead of 750 ml, when no company will ever produce them. Fantastic vaporware. Similarly if you support a clearly disastrous Conservative leader, even though you know it's a bad idea, you might get rewarded with a peerage later. Terrific for us, huh?
Advent of Code: collecting stars in order to find the missing snow, or something :) Finished in position 1925 this year, somewhat down on last year's 1188.
Boris Johnson: talking nonsense yet again. He reckons that Donald Trump would stop the Ukraine war in 24 hours, and not as you might expect by withdrawing military aid from Ukraine (as he has done before) and praising the virtues of Putin (as he has done before), but by somehow supporting Ukraine in some mysterious way that miraculously ends a punishing war within a day? Oh yeah, sure, or he hands Ukraine on a plate, declares it an enemy of the west and claims victory for himself and his unquenchable ego.
Rishi Sunak: "the will of the people, the will of the people" — no, Mr Sunak, your preposterous and costly scheme, which will only waste public money (not yours, of course) and trash Britain's reputation while doing nothing to stop the legal and illegal migration problem, is not the "will of the people", it's just vain showboating. Please stop stealing fatuous lines from Johnson and Farage.
Talking of the will of the people... poor deluded Andrea Leadsom. She's so confused that she thinks there was "always" a price to pay for leaving the single market. Didn't she get the very clear message that "there will be no downside"? Especially because Brexit didn't mean leaving the single market, Brexit means Brexit! Didn't she get all those repeated memos?
British farmers... seem also to be a little deluded about all the obvious Brexit benefits that they voted for. Can't they see the massive improvements over the last 8 years? Shame that they're now spreading "Project Fear" as if there were any possible downsides. Maybe they should just try "believing" a bit more. Or alternatively, take their grievances to the Government instead of to innocent road users. Same for the Brexit-voting fishermen too.
