I really hope that when labour gets into power they follow through with the abolition of the leasehold system. Seeing that money leave my bank account each month and getting nothing from it but the right to live in my own home, that I own, is so depressing.
I mean I've been trying to get them to fix the drainage outside for more than a year. If I could just get the right to fix that myself instead of paying the council to not fix it that would be great.
Just stumbled on a video of someone trying to understand the Brummie accent and I'm curious my foreign friends, what are your thoughts on my native tongue?
There are a couple of old Anglo-Saxon words that I've become obsessed with and think we need to bring back into modern English.
Earthfast: literally bound to the earth. It can refer literally to a rock half buried and stuck in place but also can mean a person who is settled. It's like being in your comfort zone and having a place you belong.
Wondersmith: a blacksmith makes iron things, a silversmith makes silver things. A wondersmith makes wonderful things.
A maker basically
It's about a month until my niece's birthday and I've decided to give her a book. Of course, me being me, I can't just buy a book so I have 1 month to write a series of short stories, illustrate them, bind it and gild it.
I know it's alot for a child who can't read yet but I want to encourage reading and for her to think it's magic. Besides what is stress anyway.
Ok FoD, I know you are all waiting for the data science of the Hood to do the calculations. So here it is.
They say that the nx-01 can go to Neptune and back in 6 minutes which means that it can travel at 83.33 times light speed. They also say that Qo'nos is 80 hours away. That puts Qo'nos about 18.25 light years away from earth.
Now there is a star out at 18.214 light years out with at least 1 planet. Gliese 251 in the Gemini constellation.
FoD's, we can't leave Discovery without answers! We've got a question for you for the upcoming Disco Retrospective episode: FMK Disco Villains: Harry Mudd, Captain Lorca, and Control?

Barkley : it's not a problem admiral we just just need to power it with 1.28 gigawatts
Janeway: great Scott! I can't believe the power requirements for time travel are so low. Just plug it into the warp core, I can run this off a shuttle.
