Nemo me impune lacessit.

Queen Elizabeth:
One couldn't possibly comment

Former Prime Minister David Cameron asked Queen Elizabeth to intervene in the Independence campaign.

Colour me surprised.
Vive La République.

Ah yes, the infamous Vow.
Everyone knows the old adage: "don't believe eveything you read in the papers." Yet many people do believe what they read in the papers, or hear on the radio or see on TV. I suppose we can add Facebook and Twitter to that list.

@TruculentSheep
Yes, of course.
There was not one single reason that lost us the referendum, but lots of different ones. However, if I could change just one thing it would be how our media is controlled. Sadly, I won't be able to do that. :blobsad:

Around this time 5 years ago I had finished my stint at the Polling Place, and collected the stats from the Returning Officer. I met up with my Yes colleagues, who had been at some of the other Polling Places.

During the day I had received many, many more positive reactions from the voters. My colleagues had experienced the same. We all felt happy.

I went to a friends house, who was also a Yes campaigner, to watch the results on TV. #Neachdainn came with me.

Catharsis.

FYI
The shows don't appear to downloadable from thistleradio, using youtube-dl. However, each show can also be listened to on NPR, and that is downloadable by youtube-dl. The downloads are exceedingly slow, in fact, about real-time. Download for a one hour show takes 60 minutes. Never mind, I've now got a podcast.

The cable will be twisted-pear.

@tauli
Is that pear-to-pear networking?

@wizardofosmium
Probably right. Her dogpiling of that poor guy with a sick baby was a disgrace.

Long past time the BBC sacked Laura Kuenssberg.

Is it Al Pacino?

@paco
You'll be welcome. 😃

We had the big gathering on the Saturday before. On the remaining days before the vote (Mon, Tue, Wed) we did some final door-to-door canvassing. The photo earlier was the lunchbreak before the last canvassing session. It was glorious weather that day. I'll never forget what it was like.

@alysonsee
US Americans is accurate, just seems a bit awkward. Of my suggestions earlier: Monrovians sounds cute, but Julians is a bit snappier.

I'd also love to know if there is a Native American term for the landmass or peoples of the US.

I'm trying to run #Firefox 69.0 directly from /opt, but it dies silently. This is on Debian Stretch.

Anyone know what secret incantation is needed?

@trebach
Yes. You have a bright career ahead of you as a headline writer for a tabloid newspaper. 😉
