Many misunderstand what it means to be conservative. It does not imply opposition to social transformations, but rather a preference for a slower pace that allows for careful evaluation of potential mistakes.

Got an odd 4am email from Google Pay stating I've added a new card. On closer inspection it's an old expired card of mine. No other suspicious activity. Some chatter on Reddit that others have had the same / similar experience. @GooglePay Should we be concerned?

Just went to buy some garage shelves from Amazon. I wanted a product I bought back in 2018. It was £27.99 back then (I checked) and it's now £39.99. That's a 43% increase - a grim rate of inflation
