@fynnvestor Depends how much he's spending on public transport, and the opportunity cost of spending his life on a bus rather than owning a car 🤷🏻‍♂️

@theiaincameron Parts of Skye are further west than Dublin 😳

@WingsScotland They also played an hour or football more than Spain, so their games were substantially longer on average and you'd expect more fouls just from being on the pitch more

@JamesMelville Will the first human born on Mars be a Martian?

@afneil Maybe the gender balance argument needs to also apply to hard, potentially risky careers instead of just comfy and lucrative ones? 🤷🏻‍♂️

@DanNeidle Will be interesting to see the impacts for Scotland where income tax rates are devolved

[Casper the Grump @_vanhooydonk]

@DanNeidle Seems to explain why white van men often appear to be much better off than salaried university graduates

@WingsScotland Other sides have centre halves that can play the ball.
We positively select for big oafs who'd make better rugby players

@ZackPolanski Yes, build nuclear power in tectonically stable areas.

Lower fatality rates than renewables.

@pieandbov We're not going to outplay Brazil so shelling it long to Dykes doesn't seem too bad an option, if we make sure McTominay or McGinn gets close enough to pick up any second balls. We need to engineer some shots on goal one way or another.

@authordlewis The freeze-thaw affect of ice breaks up road surfaces. Less of an issue in warmer countries

@ZackPolanski There were numerous BLM riots, but leftists called them 'protests'. Funny that.

@Fyrishsunset @HeavenlyMalbec They wouldn't actually, if it was a very low interest rate, say 1% they'd be better keeping the mortgage going than paying it down with money that could be otherwise invested and receive a higher return, say 5% and upwards. Opportunity cost.

@bentleykarl @iain_staffell Sounds perfect for a Scottish city

[Casper the Grump @_vanhooydonk]

@Fiona35352137 @JNHanvey Yes but this is in the context of people with high salaries, so the top end purchases that are recognised aren't unobtainable on an individual basis. It's the total spend that's unaffordable, but concealable if you believe many items are cheap

@Isaac2003_v2 Does 8 include a B-52 doing insecticide spraying runs? The midgies are beyond words

[Casper the Grump @_vanhooydonk]

@Caollaghan @JNHanvey My point is you'd expect 99% of salt and pepper shakers to be under £100, and therefore easily affordable for their incomes

@HollyGrayle If England play Germany, the average English person will be genetically closer to the German players than the England players.

@Narcowar2 @lennartprimal We evolved to outlast prey on foot over long distances.

We have no evolutionary function after 40, so the fact our bodies cope badly with running after this age doesn't mean this isn't our best means of obtaining resources.
