This is a genuine question from someone wanting to be more educated, why is it being downvoted?

Ee they grow up fast - I remember when this millenium was only 1/80 complete

I think most are inclined to buy something like a t-shirt, but my girlfriend does collect CDs in the same way I collect records

People complain about Starmer, but he’s a human rights lawyer, rather than a disaster capitalist, so surely that’s a step in the right direction

Country boy here - cows are pretty harmless most of the time if you leave them alone, they might wander over to have a look, but they’re usually pretty docile. If you don’t want them near you, clapping your hands or making yourself big with your arms and shouting usually makes them go away. I will say that you should absolutely not approach them if there are calves nearby and bulls in general are typically more aggressive, but if you keep a safe distance you should be fine

Excited for the special edition of the trailer

You try arguing with idiots

I’m a massive Doctor Who fan and discourse surrounding it has been ‘difficult’ for the last few years. As the quality of the show has varied, some fans have denounced more recent series, and others have become angry that they don’t enjoy the same things as they do. At the end of the day we’re all fans of Doctor Who, we just can’t agree what Doctor Who is, but I think we should accept that and all let each other enjoy the Doctor Who we want to.

This should be an official set

I had knockoff coco pops once and they tasted like cardboard

You can’t really get any more outrageous than Death to all but Metal

Excitedly awaiting the release of the Z-Box

I was a huge fan of steam engines when I was younger, so I used to go to heritage railways a lot as a child. Also when I had an LPG car, the place I used to go for fuel also sold coal

While I have to say that A-Level history was deathly boring in some places, some parts of it really interested me, and it gave me the proper skills to be able to do my own research and properly scrutinise historical sources

No, but I think this is only because I’m the ‘tech guy’ in my family and I’ve had years of helping my grandparents in their misadventures in using Windows, and I know it’s not their fault that they don’t understand, so I’m naturally patient with them

Least anarchic lemming

I studied early soviet history and Lenin was a total nutcase - the USSR was totalitarian from the start. It wasn’t a popular revolution, it was a hostile takeover of a nation
