just thought I should make this clear again over here too:

@hiscursedness@mastodon.social a wiser man than I, @unixsmurf, once told me "there isn't enough garlic in *garlic*"

he, too, was right

People sometimes (maybe only half) jokingly explain the UK's various severe social and societal problems by saying British people just love being miserable and can't stand anyone not being miserable too

Honestly the single strongest evidence of this I've seen is that 4-ply toilet paper isn't really a thing here and 2-ply is being sold as the default

@FirstProgenitor not sure if typo for touch or Brooklyn accent for "torch"

@rysiek @forgefriends worth noting that the man was also previously arrested for trying to make bombs and assaulting his partner, so careful about cheering him on as some kind of righteous martyr

someone also noted he tried to run a fundraiser with some kind of sob story about funding FOSS to fund his legal costs after that there incident where his house went on fire while he was building a bomb and his insurance refused to cover it
