My incometence at this game is very consistent:

- I always overshoot onto short platforms
- I always undershoot when trying to get the 3rd perfect landing

100 Jumps

Hold to charge, release to jump. Land on 100 platforms to win — but one miss and it's over. How many attempts will it take you?

I rag on Nextdoor but it genuinely is a good way to shake yourself out of “surely 40% of people can’t still be on board with all this” complacency.

Nextdoor thinks the real reason gas prices are rising this week is CA has fewer refineries. Gas is fungible, people! Artisanally produced locavore gas isn’t magically cheaper.

In the perfect intersection of pedantry, politics, and parochialism, I'm letting everyone know you don't include someone's first name when they're a lord, unless they're a younger son and it's just a courtesy title not a real lordship.

So he's either Peter Mandelson or Lord Mandelson, not Lord Peter Mandelson.
