No I totally agree. What I'm saying is try living in Rural northern England. There's genuinely still not much need for 4x4s even here. I cut about in a 1L fiesta just as well as any Land Rover and its hilly as hell round here.

Absolute wank shafts up here tho with their incredibly wide 4x4s on a country road with a boat on the back just nipping out for some milk and they think "well there's less pollution here it'll be fine". Idiots.

For comparison, in Australia in 2021, there were 1,068,268 single parent families (representing 15.9% of families), with 19.6% of these parents being male.

At the previous census in 2016, with was 959,544, 15.8% of families, and 18.2% of those parents being male.

So single fathers are on the rise here. By comparison, the US has a higher proportion of single-parent families and a greater share of the parents are fathers.

Having written the above, I remembered that a large number of Aussie kids have custody shared between their two parents. The above figures relate to where they were on census night. Lots of those kids would be with their mum most of the time and their dad on some weekends.

Compared to apple music:

-has good music discovery such as song/playlist radio, recommended songs, recommended playlists, similar artists, found on. -plus it's easy to click on a artist and go down a sort of musoc rabbit hole -Spotify is social. You can follow friends, make playlists together, Spotify makes blended playlists, you can see what friends are listening to

  • Spotify has a good interface where you can easily switch between PC and phone
  • searching for a song on apple music is odd. I feel like it's very americacentic. I feel like it assumes you spelled a popular English song wrong and suggests that instead of the foreign song you were looking for.

Idk I feel like it's just music discovery in general
