That's certainly one way to climb the corporate ladder...

Before he moved to the BBC, Graham Norton had a late 90s/early 2000s show on Channel 4, which (amongst other things) featured random shit off the internet.

I swear, half the weird internet stuff would be prefaced with 'So, Carrie Fisher sent me this email- '.

Same here. The issue for me, I think, is that my feelings about music are the same as my feelings about chocolate; it's fine, but I don't see why everyone makes such a fuss about it.
My lack of interest in dancing is just an extension of that.

I did country dancing (essentially line dancing, but done in a circle and without the country and western theme) a couple of times at primary school in the 80s. I quite enjoyed that, but as you say, it was about following the instuctions and patterns rather than reacting to the music.

Based on that picture, it looks like Putin's going to be going Full Monty to fund them.

For people like this, money isn't a resource that they need to survive, it's just a way of keeping score.

It's like playing an idle game - you tweak the various settings and resources to get the most gain, and your reward is watching the numbers go up.

They're no more connected to the numbers themselves than someone sitting at their computer playing Realm Grinder.

Yeah, I'm running LineageOS with MicroG, so I tried disabling Android System Webview as a test. ReVanced seems perfectly happy to browse/play videos (though I didn't try logging out). The only apps I have that fall over without webview seem to be eBay and Amazon, so no great loss there.
