Body mods that look good in the traditional sense are generally called plastic/cosmetic surgery. Breast implants, face lifts, hair implants, etc. are the same idea as body mods, just with the goal of achieving a more mainstream idea of beauty.

I'm honestly shocked this hasn't happened already. How can a world class museum not have a centralised inventory of all its items?
The shortest song I ever found at a karaoke place was You Suffer by Napalm Death. It's 1.3 seconds long.
For what it's worth the UK uses mph and we've had the Internet for a little while now too, and here e-scooters are technically illegal to ride anywhere other than on private land, i.e. not on pavement, on bike lanes or on the road.
The exception is if you're in one of the cities which is operating a "trial" rental scheme, in which case the rental company will let you know where they think you should ride. But I believe even in those areas privately owned e-scooters remain illegal to use in public.
Well I certainly wouldn't want to change my pupils without their consent, that's for sure!
I seem to recall Nadine Dorries proposing an end to the TV license, which apparently would come about in 2027 if it happens. But with a complete roster change in the tory government since then and a likely loss in the next election, we'll have to wait and see what Labour decide to do about that.
It's English, but not as we know it, Jim.
Translated it reads: "The Liberal Democratic Party will ruin everything" competition between two left-wing parties in mid-Bedfordshire by-election could split votes and result in a win by the Conservative Party.
This reminds me of two recent posts that I got involved in here.
The first was about Wales' upcoming 20mph zone, where people were complaining that "they're just trying to generate revenue". Well, only if you decide to break the law, surely?
The other was a discussion on the cyclists who were "caught" speeding in Devon. Drivers were outraged and wanted cyclists to adhere to the speed limits (good luck without a speedometer). But they would get apoplectic when you suggested that they should do the same.
As a cyclist it always strikes me that we probably don't need any new laws to make the roads safe, we just need the current laws to be enforced and obeyed. If every driver gave every cyclist 1.5m of space, priority at junctions, kept out of the cycle lanes, etc. as they'resupposed to then the roads would be a lovely place to cycle.
An intriguing idea, but they seem a little vague about where they're actually getting their traffic data from, just a "third party". For crowd-sourced traffic data to be at all useful it needs to be coming from software that a lot of drivers happen to have on their phones, so I wouldn't be surprised if Google or Apple aren't to be found somewhere in the pipeline.
