I am surprised that R is so high up.
panste··on Caterpillar found to eat shopping bags, suggesting solution to plastic pollution
Landfills are actually not that bad of an idea. If we someday find a way to recycle that stuff we can just dig it up again and use it. If a caterpillar eats it who knows where it ends up. In the water? In the ground? In our food? In our blood?

panste··on Why Haters Hate: Kierkegaard Explains the Psychology of Trolling in 1847
That part with the "casual remark" is something that I experienced myself. In middle school I was bullied by a neighbour of mine. The weird part was that on some days he was really nice to me and he acted like he was a good friend of mine and on some days he was a total dick. I learned that when I approached him in the morning and talked to him (about homework, video games, whatever) he was nice to me the whole day, when I had nothing to do with him he became mean and started bullying.
panste··on Exploring the Elizabeth line, one of the world’s largest construction projects
It wasn't mentioned that it will cost 25 billion - which btw is a ridicilous high number in comparison to other tunnel projects. Also for example the Gotthard base tunnel or the Brenner base tunnel are longer and therefor 'larger' then those described in the article.

I would not consider it to be "one of the world's largest construction projects".
