Jippa posted:After googling I just found out that "In nature, unsaturated fatty acids generally have cis as opposed to trans configurations". That just sounds weird. It literally just means "on the same side" and "on the other side" In chemistry it refers to whether some of the pertinent groups are on the same or opposite sides of the molecule. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis%E2%80%93trans_isomerism So a cis isomer has both groups on one side, a trans isomer has them on other sides. Fatty acids would presumably have the acid groups on one side of the molecule rather than on opposite sides.

I love that the first reaction to benefits being better than working is always 'why aren't we cutting benefits?!' instead of 'why aren't we loving paying people more?'

They didn't close down the banks and stock markets because of people defrauding them, so why should No. I know. It's because one is for poor people. But I have to go through this motion every time someone blasts the benefits system because somebody cheated it.

The best response is probably "so we kill him then?" Because ultimately that's what it comes down to, you either kill people or you pay for them to live. If people just won't work then they either end up in prison or dead, which do you think is appropriate here?

I'm not sure, the story doesn't mention any children or other dependants so if he's on his own you'd be looking at income based JSA (just over £300 a month), council tax support (varies based on local authority and CT band but unlikely to be much over £100) and the big unknown, housing benefit.

All I know is the worst damage the police suffered was maybe a slightly bruised ego, while we were organising support lines of water bottles and tissues for the black bloc folk ducking back to get their cut up faces and hands treated. EDIT: Oh and of course the infamous "smoke grenade".

That's because they were honest benefit claimants who stressed out because they were seeking work and miserable because they were taking only their due. The jobless folk living the high life are screwing the system for every possible penny (and teaching their Horde of Illegitimate Children to do likewise) and are not worried about finding work because they never wanted to work.

It's broadly theft. You can go to a shop and nick stuff or you can go to the jobcenter and nick benefits. If you're giving fraudulent information to get money out of people it's not a benefits problem, the problem is you're committing fraud. I don't really get why it's not viewed like that.

Nobody had even thought about the hole in millennia in England's green and pleasant hillsides, when all of a sudden a buzzing emerged from the concrete jungle of a gay club full of gays. It rose above the concrete skyline like as a plague of locusts, a mushroom cloud of individual black vermin. Slowly, as the winds blew, they settled into the thatches and mock Tudor beams of a thousand houses, laying eggs which would hatch and wriggle and seek the nearest human warmth and, when found, whisper into their ear "have you tried it in the butt?"

What actually happened with those laws? I seem to recall it ended up illegal to produce porn of that in the UK or something but not illegal to watch? Because I mean, if that's so, they're really only hurting the economy by creating a purely import market for being pissed on while a big woman sits on your face.
