Hi there!
Welcome to our daily scheduled post, the Daily Slow Chat.
If you want to just chat about your day, if you have questions for the moderators (please mark these [Mod] so we can find them), or if you just want talk about oatmeal then this is the thread for you!
Enjoying the small talk? We have a Discord server too! We'd love to have more of you over there. Do both of us a favour and use this link to join the fun.
The mod-team wishes you a nice day!

Why are Boris Johnson, Liz Truss, and Nigel Farage all at the RNC? Liz Truss seems to have cheered up slightly from what happened a couple weeks ago.
Sarawak laksa for breakfast today.. the Breakfast of Kings!
Finland’s president Alexander Stubb is [taking part](https://www.hs.fi/urheilu/art-2000010576965.html) in what the organizers rather humorously call a “downhill swimming happening”, as it involves swimming downstream in a river. The distances are 12 and 24 km. He has a background in marathons and triathlon.
Very warm day today. I got to drive an old Mercedes. I must say, driving old cars is extremely annoying (I mean, mine is also from 2007, but this one was from 1970-something). Or maybe this one wasn’t very well-maintained.
After Turkey banning Wattpad, it seems like Russia banned Ficbook (the biggest Russian language fanfiction site). They say it will be back, but only after every LGBTQ story has been removed. It would be better if they banned it completely, at least then the archive would be preserved. It’s awful.
