ya participation is in the low teens, like twelve percent here. it rules. I get an actual appreciable hours-long rush from voting whereas in presidential elections or even primaries the high is much sharper and ends a lot quicker.

my favourite vote was when there was a by-election going on in my district but it was about to be cancelled by a snap general election due to the government falling on a confidence vote, so there was this weird gap where they knew all the votes were going to be thrown out but they still had to have the ballot station open anyway, so i voted that day and then my vote was thrown out. pretty metal.

Stratford's the same as it's ever been. The silverlink's been swapped for a load of new train lines and the Olympic site is there but nothing is going to change Stratford. You'll still get stabbed in Maryland on a tuesday lunchtime.

its a flattering gesture but it really doesnt make a lot of sense. why have such a large mcdonalds when they really just need to organize a small team to operate on-call. but try telling that to corporate...

Its like a water main - if its diameter is too small you have to run water through it faster. But as the water speeds up it exerts less pressure on the walls of the pipe, and the pipe can collapse because of this.
