My immersion of Ghost of Tsushima was ruined when I saw female lords being treated as equals to male lords.

I thought, "were they really equals back in Feudal Japan? This ruins my immersion."

Then our brave, rugged, honorable lead Samurai who we respect, jumps on to his knees and prostrates himself at every opportunity in front of his uncle/lord, saying unironically how unworthy he is to exist in the presence of such a divine being...

...and I was like, "oh yeah. In those moments where he is actually true to his period, I lose all respect for him."

Fair play game, fair play.

I like the bot checking/shaming, but I think you've got the wrong target

So was I, but then I witnessed "a professional" tracing a leak at my mum's house, and watched them cover her entire front room with dust pulling the ceiling apart.

Trust me once you pay someone do it once, and realize what shortcuts they take and what standard they work to, you become more than willing to have a go yourself.

Cowboys. No exception!

Same, I just like his soothing voice though

If pet owners let cats grow to full size, instead of keeping them cooped up indoors they could claim the same.

smh.

Ive started on the DIY again, pulling down the entire kitchen roof to locate a leak from the shower.

I was hoping it would be a simple leak from the drain, but nope, its leaking from the shower water inlet which is in the wall...

.. at least I now know where the persistent mould is coming from. It smells so bad in summer sometimes. The whole house needs some TLC, but money is an issue

Still, while I still have a job, I plan to sink every penny into the house to get it up to scratch. If I get laid off I might be able to rent a room

the one bit of news about the UK that gives me the fuzzies is our energy policy

I helped a lady with a stroller and luggage up the stairs at the station recently, it was no problem once I was at the top.

The moment she thanked me, I felt it. There was a certain electricity in the air and it tingled down my back. As she stared into my eyes, my eyes store back into hers, slowly watering.

I played it cool and walked calmly back down the steps, but I hobbled the rest of the way home
