I hear the Telegraph is moving from a monetary subscription service to one based on sending them vials of child blood.

If you write stupid enough Telegraph columns you get to be prime minister, so there's a strong incentive

e: there are other requirements too. There's a 100% chance that bojo hosed a dead pig

No that's their new exchange service, they send quantities on nonce photos based on the deliciousness of the blood in question.

"The bumbling bulldog fought back" makes it sound like a particularly stupid dog tried to tell a cat what to do and immediately got smacked around and fell on its arse. I would argue that in such a light this may not be the Torygraph's worst work.

Thanks for the replies and encouragements guys, I was in a really bleak emotional place with the mental agony, physical symptoms with no relief, lack of sleep, hopelessness, fear, despair and seeing no way out but breathing foul air and then dying of pneumonia or something. I sobbed for probably the first time in 35 years. Despite my depression, my suicidal ideation isn't frequent but it is strong when it hits.

Feel immensely more positive now. Noted about the causes, damp, unlikelihood of actual cross-contamination etc, matches up with my own research but I recognise I need the expert onsite. 51% humidity is highest I've ever seen with 0 ventilation, middle-low-40% in winter, dehumidifier a yes though, it cannot hurt.

I am executing a plan, have decluttered bathroom, kitchen, hallway and my bedroom. Hoovered. Got PPE coveralls and N95 masks. Thrown away stuff already this morning. Seeing clear and clean areas of carpet again is satisfying even if the air is still fouled. 2 rooms to go: tackling a box a day, every day, bojack-it-gets-easier-you-just-have-to-keep-doing-it style. Progress is being made. Calling my expert at 11:30am today.

A very long time ago I had a coworker who was cis female and played rugby. She was built like a brickhouse and I'm pretty sure if she slammed into me she would easily have broken at least 20% of my skeleton. She was also bigger than the person in the article.

I wonder if these people concerned for the poor women at a disadvantage would also consider a genetic outlier like that coworker as having an "unfair advantage"

That's a rhetorical question, of course they'd find a contorted way of justifying it

I'd definitely recommend a dessicant based one rather than a compressor based one. Compressor ones seem to work better for swampy warm air, whereas I've dried out my front room (Victorian terrace, chimneys weren't vented properly before I moved in, mold smell in cupboards) and whole house with one of these (don't pay that for it though, you can get one for £170 or less if you shop around).

It's got an air sterilizer in too, and a laundry mode that dries clothes on an indoor line quickly.

Wasn't this exactly what happened with that female tennis player earlier this year? Cis female but naturally high testosterone so they disqualified her?
