@AmazonHelp Amazing bot @AmazonUK @AmazonHelp - there's nothing to return BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'T DELIVERED THE PRODUCT. Honestly, I've been waiting over a month and a half for something that should have been delivered in 2 days or a refund, and to be told I now need to jump through more hoops!

Hey @AmazonUK want to explain to me why you've kept me waiting weeks for a refund and now want me to report it via some kind of email incident report when the product was lost/damaged at your warehouse? (Also, pretty sure that's in breach of consumer rights act 2015)

@speakoutsister A better question is how does an employer kno? They cant ask everyone (gdpr), cant just ask people they think are trans (equality act discrimination on gender reassignment) and "cant" not check thanks to the stupid ruling. Literally only safe option for them is only unisex loos.

@lonmgp @demi_irawo Its actually super easy to explain. A megacorp will happily pay rent to get its brand in town. You have ten places to rent. You can charge 1mil a year for one that a megacorp will pay and let 9 sit empty, or charge 50k a year for each. One way you make 1mil, the other half a mil

@BlackPaintit @zeevisinsfard @llggeorgia So not so fun fact, about 36k is the median average. I.e you add up everyones salary and divide by workers. So e.g. bankers and footballers on 100 mil deals skew the average. The modal salary (the one with the most people on) is iirc closer to 18k a year.

@SimplyShae13 I mean, Trotsky at least would have been an early adopter - consider: "We cannot seriously talk about socialism without having in mind the transformation of the country into a single whole, linked together by means of all kinds of communications."

@ManyATrueNerd There are three reasons oil is needed: first, as someone else already said - plastics. Plastic is EVERYWHERE in FO. Second, lubricant - robots everywhere need it to function (e.g. the vault 81 quest). And finally, fertilizer; you need a lot of corn syrup for all that junk food...

@EllStats I didn't have Reeves down as "force unilateral nuclear disarmament on the UK because the contracts for essential bits and bobs are too expensive to be OK'd without ministerial approval and the ministers are all on their holidays so can't/won't approve them" on my bingo card XD

@Storm_Jarvismay @ManyATrueNerd This exactly; it is a really neat in universe and mechanical answer to the obvious question when your entire game is based on a city with a big river in it as both a major landmark and connecting multiple areas - "Why not just swim there?"

@Undospies @BeckettUnite Yes. For water it's pretty easy: pass a new law "All water companies must ensure no more than 1% of total water moved is lost to leaks in any 6 month period or be fined 10x gross income". Stock price then craters, buy all the companies outright for pennies, then repeal the law.

@DrAshleyNova IX was always hugely underrated imo. Didn't have the splash that VII did with the 2d->3d change, was the last of the PS1 FF games and so got kinda overlooked. And yet... it remains arguably the best FF game, certainly the only one to challenge VII for the title in my opinion.

@AyoCaesar Actually, that should read England, not UK - I didn't think to check the SNP, PC or the Northern Irish leader vote counts. Still impressive for him personally regardless.

@AyoCaesar Missed a couple of other details Ash - Ed himself is the *ONLY* Party leader in the UK who was standing for re-election not to lose any percentage of vote share in his own seat. He also got iirc the 2nd or 3rd highest percentage out of the leaders and the most votes total.

@samuelsweek And the biggest long term success / only thing anyone really remembers him for is going to be Yellow? Sounds like good news for the Lib Dems and SNP XD

@CarlaFilipaX @LeftieStats @OwenJones84 Seems a bit rude to Temu tbqh. Ive always gotten exactly what I ordered from them - cheap plastic tat. Certain leadership election votes on the other hand...

@bfwriter @ambernoelle An under-par extended NaNo too - like, 3-4 months of NaNo is at least 150-200k words, not 120k lol!

You have survived this long despite all of the trauma you've faced because you are strong. You shouldn't have to be strong, but you are. You may not feel strong, but you are. The proof is you being here to read this message.
