pretty shitty how baseline human activities like singing, dancing and making art got turned into skills  instead of being seen as behaviors
so now it’s like ‘the point of doing them is to get good at them’ and not ‘this is a thing humans do, the way birds sing and bees make hives’.

Fuck hostile architecture, I want unhostile architecture. I want benches to be designed to be as easy as possible to sleep on. I want little places for pigeons to nest to be purposefully put on buildings. I want people designing public spaces to think about what they'd be like to skateboard on. I want "Please loiter" signs. I want people to be kind. I want...

It has been just over 10 hours, and it's now at about £600 - it totally blasted past the £500 goal! Amazingggggg~
Want to help fund a Pride festival in a tiny Welsh town? 🏳️‍🌈
We're Machynlleth and we're small but queerly dense, so the goal is small but impactful, which means it's super easy and satisfying to support a significant amount!

Listening to my brain usually brings me to similar conclusions.

I'm quoted in this article in a local newspaper! 😁

Want to co-sign my UK petition?
Using metric for everything except long distance is nonsense.
Edit: I forgot that the website wouldn't show you the full text of the petition because it hasn't been approved by moderators! So, here it is:
Switch the UK to using kilometres (metric) instead of miles (imperial) The majority of the UK population are happier with the metric system. One of the last things left to switch is from miles to kilometres. We should switch to kilometres, because using two different sets of units is more work in the long run, and because metric distances are easier to work with.

Avery's right, and also, "Indian and Chinese takeaway" is not really Indian and Chinese food, it's a weird Britification of them that contains uniquely British ingredient combinations. The stuff we have here in takeaway menus is not really available in India or China.
So, it definitely counts as British.
I humbly submit to the list some regional and national dishes and ingredients:
Black pudding (as delicious as it sounds, i.e. horrendous to my vegetarian sensibilities)
Welsh rarebit (yum)
Laverbread (seaweed! yum)
Haggis
Trifle (yum, fond memories of trifle made by my aunt)
Cucumber sandwiches (soft on the outside, crunchy on the inside, and so nice on a hot, sunny day)
Porridge with cold milk and honey/jam (yum)
Pancakes, which here are not really served like crepes, and are definitely nothing like American/Canadian pancakes
Stew and dumplings
Cauliflower cheese (exactly what it sounds like and it's amazing)
British biscuits: Jammy Dodgers, Bourbons, Custard Creams, etc.
Savoury pies (whenever I talk about pies on the internet, all the Americans are like, "WHAT, why would you put meat and vegetables and gravy in a pie????" Dude, why WOULDN'T you, pastry is neither savoury nor sweet, it is simply a neutral vehicle for flavour, it's like asking why anyone would want to make a savoury sandwich)
Tonnes of our traditional foods are just from a few decades ago, and you can kinda tell from the vibes that it's from (or evolved from) wartime rationing kinds of stuff. Like, that's what cultural foods are, they're dishes that grew out of a societal situation. And even if you think they're rubbish, there's a bunch of people that love dishes you think are rubbish, but it's still our culinary culture so you just kind of have to deal with it.
"I dislike British food"
Oh so you admit British food exists then
