Shutting down porn sites? Is that a thing they wanted to achieve? Like free video sites like PH or production companies like Brazzers?
Yeah I was confused too. I clicked to see if people were talking about films, short form videos, or what. I didn’t expect games.
When you see someone write it on the back of their jacket and saying “it’s cool, we’re taking it back” whenever someone calls it out.
I’ve read some of Crichton’s other books, not all but a few, and I get it. I wouldn’t rate them so high. But I don’t consider these two to be that kind of book.
Only classics? Geez. OP, forget my recommendations.

Absolutely. A few months after this I went directly to the person above my boss and explained the situation- mental health, physical health, turned into dependence on weekly psychologist sessions.
Basically told me to get over it.
This was a non profit organisation dedicated to helping homeless, refugees, victims of domestic violence, and elderly people who are unable to afford aged care. The people on the ground doing the work were amazing people. But the people in charge were all cosplaying as big business shitheads.
Shit job from 10 years ago. Getting too drunk at the office Christmas party and talking so much shit about my horrible fucking boss to a couple of influential senior managers who are close to the CFO. Freaked out all weekend about it, severe anxiety attacks. That mixed with the hangover I was just vomiting all weekend.
And then: Run into one of those senior managers early in the office on Monday morning, apologised for being inappropriate. Get a response “oh, we all know how bad she is, can’t believe you haven’t quit yet”.
Nobody would risk that fucker coming back for anything.
Trick or treating isn’t so much of a thing in Australia, even though the idea of Halloween and dressing up has become more popular.
Anyway, no one has ever done it in our neighbourhood, but just in case I buy a bag of chupa chups in October in case anyone knocks on the door.
I think he’d have one thing to say
“The joke Is on you!”
Gravy. I put gravy on a ton of things. People look like they’re going to be sick when I term them I have pasta with gravy.
I can’t speak for the UK but I believe the situation would probably be same as Australia. That is, there are a bunch of different ways to cut chips.
The thicker chips you mentioned are called steak cut chips.
The fries (thin, McDonald style) are called shoestring fries.
Long, not thin but not thick (best reference I have here KFC style, but don’t know if they’re the same in North America), would be known as straight cut chips.
Sir-Racha. I think it’s Australia only, it’s stocked at our local supermarket and the only thing we’ve ever found that replaces original sriracha for us.
Our bird isn’t with us anymore, but years ago I bought her a special made backpack with mesh windows and some wooden perches inside it so I could take her outside. It was excellent.

Where I work; the public facing staff, security and customer service roles, are now offered to wear one at the start of their shift. They all want to use one.
These workers face abuse - physical assault, threats, harassment - from members of the public.
What has been found is that when they turn the body worn camera on, the other person tends to stop the abuse or at least de-escalates somewhat. (Prior to having body worn cameras available, some of these staff had tried to use their phone to film when in an incident, but it almost always triggered an immediate violent response - one staff had their phone taken and smashed, another was hit in the face)
There has been a decrease in mental health injury claims since using these. My own talks with these staff are that they feel safer, and had asked their employer to procure more body worn cameras as there wasn’t enough for all the staff.
The staff are not required to have them constantly on, they press a button to switch it on when an aggressive situation is forming or they believe they are in danger.
