The story of "playing with grenades while drunk and high on cocaine" was so plausible too.

Please can you explain this in genetic terms?

As I understood it, sex is determined by the presence, or absence, of a Y chromosome, at the 23rd pair.

While exceptions exist, they're incredibly rare genetic observations and I have never heard or read it referred to as a "spectrum".

Informative and unfortunate.

Probs low hanging fruit for this thread, but vinyl collecting.

Started around 2011 by going to charity shops and second hand stores to find bargains. I used to be able to spend £10 a week and get 3/4 new (to me) records. Some were great ,some were trash, but that was the fun!

Then I started getting specific records, building towards band discographies... next thing I know, I'm dropping £25 per record for two bootleg records that were definitely not worth the price. Was a watershed moment and one that made me take a step back.

Ticked over for a year or two, next thing I know vinyl records are now in Asda, Tesco and Sainsbury's. Every new release comes on vinyl, and they're now £25+. Charity shops are now just full of junk vinyl, and all the second hand stores now charge £25+ because their pressings are "original"... all the fun is now gone.

Will there no longer be an announcement at The Ritz: Bathroom and Kitchen fitters inc. ?

Is that why we are being told to "fear" AI? Because it can't be easily monitised by those who worry about such things.

I'm going to borrow things "to try" from my friends house, say they sucked, and then sell them on eBay.

I'll just say I auctioned them.

GOT EM.

It's possible that this story didn't happen. Some points raised here highlight some areas we should remain skeptical.

The hill I'm prepared to die on on is that I think an elephant is the only mammal that could pull off wearing two pairs of cargo shorts at once.
