The pics of London kids isn't a thing of the past really. There's still a huge amount of poverty still going on. Oh it may look different but, the hunger is still there, not enough decent food, tatty clothes, watching the meters wondering when to put the heating on & for how long, Cant buy nice clothes & shoes etc, cant do day trips, holidays, getting food from food banks because the money wont stretch. Its not just people on Benefits going to food banks, its working families going also. Its unbelievable !! How have we sunk so low ? A lot of people feel there's no hope, no future & that's depressing to say the least !! So, generation after generation has been the same, just the look of each Age looks different. I don't doubt in 100 yrs time it will still be the same only it will look different again, & so it goes on.

Sort of chilling.

That's amazing, clunky & still some way to go but, that has potential for lots of good reasons. Snakes are my uber frightening creature ! Im terrified of them ! but that is a great invention.

I make no apologies for this, I love this guy. I cant remember who originally posted one of his rants way back when but, Im hooked

now this, is to me, not just brilliant how she does this but sad too. I feel a kind of gratefulness that she can because she's made them so much more reachable. Knowing what was said gives me better connection. There was someone's son, brother, father. There are lads younger than my son & I look at him & think of the unmeasurable pain of loss for the mothers who had to let go & watch them happily march away. And the dreaded letter no one wanted from the MOD.

A rare film of Market Street in San Francisco, just a few days before the great 1906 earthquake and fire that left the city in ruins.

I've seen that before, always an incredible experience. Makes you want to dive right into the hurly-burly of it. I don't understand the electric trolleys that seem to be crossing at random, no wires visible, no tracks.

Got no idea what this about, but the first 10mins looked pretty good.

Boys in ponytails - you know he'll be a fighter.

New show on youtube. Watched the first episode and was pretty impressed.

[halfwise]

Wait, Youtube is making it's own content?

Looks interesting. From the few minutes I watched the creators know how to let the audience discover things for themselves.

[chris63]

Real creepy at the end, I'm hooked.

Watched all 10 episodes of Origins. Pretty good, i hope there's a season 2.

16 out of 16 for me. I'm not human.

I missed a medium red, but because after seeing everything for 'O' I stopped looking so missed the corners that made a 'D'. But I'm slightly weak in the red, I'll accept that. Not my favorite color.

Got super annoyed at the animation, started skipping past pointless breaks at test two and left at test 3. Guess I'll settle for super-impatient.
