I honestly didn’t know albatrosses use fishing rods. I kinda thought you just five into the water and use your beak. TIL!
Have I understood correctly?
Haven’t had a chance to read it yet, but this popped up on Lemmy recently.
You might not change the weather, but you can increase biodiversity which is still good. And you can also lower the temperature by introducing trees
You’re missing the point. For some people, it’s not faking it
Just want to highlight something you said because it’s something I see people tripping up over a lot in my own life.
As long as you two are having a good time, the rest really doesn’t matter as much as you think it does.
Keep in mind that your goal isn’t “experience grey and dismal weather”, “eat a very large burger”, “get killed by a venomous animal” (depending on which country you visit), but your goal is actually “my gf and I should have fun”. If things don’t go to plan but you still had fun, guess what? Things did actually go to plan!
EDIT: but also, if following your itinerary is stressing you out, then feel free to skip a day and just unwind and relax so you’re energised and ready to enjoy the next day
That’s global warming for you
Yeah, but we all already know who she is
Clearly a Traffic Sign Swallow
At my university, all exams were handwritten (with exceptions for people with disabilities or special needs)
I have a small van with a bed and a sink in. I don’t visit any campsites. I don’t see this as “wild camping”, but apparently it counts so I’ll pitch in my advice anyway. I feel like we would have very similar interests - my holidays consist of going to Scotland for roughly a week, walking wherever seems nice, and generally being away from other people. I park overnight in lay-bys or carparks that allow camping. I started out sleeping in the back of my car for the first few years, but it’s not as comfortable and I enjoyed myself enough that I decided to invest in a van.
The things I bring with me are
I go shopping and find a toilet once a day. I drive to somewhere nice (just look at the map and take a guess). Sit and read,go for a walk wherever looks interesting, snack, sleep, repeat. In terms of food, it’s mostly pastries and salad, because it’s hard to find ready-to-eat vegetarian food. For cooking, I’ve found that stuffed pasta and readymade sauce is easy to cook, and the other go-to is vegetarian sausages in a bun. But generally I only eat one or two cooked meals per holiday. It’s not worth the washing up IMO.
My experience is probably different than what you’re planning, but similar enough to be useful advice I hope. You can literally start by just jumping in a car with some food and water, and driving somewhere nice. As long as you have a car, anyway. I’d suggest to start small and close to home, then it’s an easy escape if anything goes wrong
I’d let them dominate me
doot
Cow yummy
This has got to be a troll, right?
I’ve got this weird half-remembered thought in my head that you don’t have a separate set of phone numbers for mobile / cell vs landline (in the UK, all mobile numbers start 07… ). Therefore you don’t know who you’re calling so it wouldn’t be possible to charge extra when calling a cell phone, therefore the owner of the cell phone has to pay that extra amount.
Like I said, it’s just a vague half-memory and I could have completely made it up. That’s why I’m asking
I assumed it was the same thing. In the UK, all our phones are prepaid. You can either get a contract for a set monthly amount, or you buy credit which you spend over time (which presumably is what you mean by prepaid).
While we’re on the subject, is it true that you have to pay to receive calls in the US?
I spend about £15 per year on my phone. No way that could be beaten with a contract. I’m still annoyed at how expensive it is though
Actually true though, in roughly half of all cases. More if you count cloud cover as not being blue
Quite right. It’s only bees 🐝 that are prohibited from skateboarding by the laws of physics.
