Re: Ultra Processed Food

Looked into this a while ago and it was too depressing. Would love to be able to only buy small batch sourdough but cost of living crisis says no, so supermarket bread is the way to go. That said, the way it stays 'fresh' for f*cking weeks compared to some of the pittas and flatbreads we get from t...

Re: Bankrupt councils

Yeah, Martin Lewis worked out that feeding your kids a diet of blue smarties and red bull until they can get an ADHD diagnosis can save up to £25 a month in the long run. (As long as you buy from poundland rather than the supermarket)

Re: When does a feud become an embarrassment?

During the first wave of covid when staff were dropping like flies I spent most of my time in an emergency respite service where everyone was going a bit stir crazy. There were two people staying there who would spend entire days telling each other 'I'll ignore you if you ignore me' while refusing a...

Re: What are you reading?

You lot should get phones. You can easily spend an hour on a train pissing about on various apps. So much better if you have a short attention span.

Re: Non-jobs

My current role mainly involves producing pointless reports that no one takes any notice of. When I'm asked for a particularly pointless one I spend ages overdesigning a variety of graphs and then point out in the text that there is absolutely nothing of any statistical relevance in said graphs. I w...

Yes, an exact analogy for why people protest in this country about Israel, I'm sick of politicians constantly saying that we stand side by side with Iran.

It's not a tough and unpleasant job, it's a sometimes tough and often wonderful job. I do a shift every other Saturday as a support worker, partly because I could do with the money (I count it as my 'extra' money and allocate it for spaffing on things like pokemon cards for the kid) but mainly becau...

Re: Bankrupt councils

1 in 3 households, including myself, privately renting now receive some amount of universal credit (according to Shelter, so I admit not a completely unbiased source). The amount of money funnelled to private landlords is mental.

Re: The 90s

Yes, but substituting cocaine for acid would be like swapping a cat for an orange, nonsensical. Also, I have no idea what it costs these days but a gramme of coke was £50 in 1993/4, my rent was £55 a week. I was a student, not a city boy.

I've just realized the first one updates when I refresh, possibly just pointing back to your own top recommendation. Shall we do pornhub next?
