This is scooby doo villain stuff, seriously. I’m partly glad their villainous acts are this small, then I remember all the other stuff they’re up to.

Hell, half the trousers I buy come with a belt. (It’s a problem for vegan trouser-customers actually, as many of the free belts are crappy cheap leather, meaning you can’t buy the otherwise cruelty free trousers.)

Only place I use cash for is the Fish and Chip shop. They did have contactless during covid, but the transaction fees from the bank are a big % if most of your custom is small orders, so they bite those for online orders and it’s cash only in the shop.

Congestion charge initial draft was bonkers, it included the park and ride car parks!

I don’t mind it, as I essentially never drive in the city anymore, but I also don’t have a vote because I live elsewhere and commute in.

I recommend Kaon’s Wonderland (novel).

They literally build a solar panel that blocks the sun, so they can charge people for the heat and light.

I actually use a dice (D6, 50:50 choice usually) to decide between two options sometimes.

The idea is to fool my brain into revealing what it really wants. Like, if I can’t decide, I’ll assign each choice odds or evens, then roll.

If I’m OK with the result, then it decided for me no problem. Maybe I didn’t care, maybe I preferred what I rolled.

If I don’t like it, then RNG just showed me what I really wanted – now I can go with the other option.

Reduces decision fatigue, and speeds up my life. I’ve been teaching it to my kids (although their favourite RNG is the Chwazi app.)
