You call it a bomb pop? We call them rocket lollys, I assumed that the rocket part would be universal.

While I see the good bits of Proportional Representation, it does give extremism a foot in the door. Remember this is the voting pattern in a FPTP system, one of the tabloids even encouraged reform voters to switch to the Tories because of tactical voting. Changing the voting system gives these far right anti human rights parties a much better chance.

This article seems to be trying to make the use of drones seem ominous but that's really simplistic. A drone is a tool. They talk about flying drones over large gatherings but before drones they'd just have a dude with a camera go up a tall building.

When there's large gatherings it can be helpful to spot crowd surges or crushes to be able to see things.

Of course these things are open to abuse, but how many cases of abuse have we seen with basic police on foot?

It's not the technology we should be worrying about but the officers who are abusive.

Why would you bail a woman that openly tried to murder a baby??? That's insane.

While american cities are a nightmare to walk, I feel like this is a bad example, like his complaints are that the pavement is next to a road and he needs to walk a bit further to get into the park. This isn't really unusual anywhere.

There's giant areas of the US where there's no pavements at all and there's a lot of things you can't walk to, like supermarkets or pharmacies, because your nearest one might be an hour or two walk away.

Not sure if it's very, maybe slightly? They're not cuddle kitties, but neither are they murder kitties.

I think that's probably it. I know it's always a game when you get the clothes out the dryer after a while to work out if it's still damp or if it's just cold.

I've mentioned this before but I worked at a zoo and we provided all kinds of plants to primates that were medicinal for just this reason, they're very clever and often treat their illnesses before the keepers even know they're sick. Not just great apes either, capuchins and lemurs that aren't nearly as bright do it too.

They were certainly feared but aren't as dangerous as say, a tiger, which we keep regularly. Their poo suggests a herbivorous diet so unlikely to be hunting anything regularly, probably more like a cassowary that attack for defence.

Fun fact I learned this week, humans have no sense for water, we work out something is wet by combining things, like if it's cold, if the pressure is different, if it's moving past us, but can't actually tell wetness.

She's so cute
