Deketh posted:I'm a bit of a lurker so I hope you don't mind me asking for some opinions on a tenancy thing. Despite the doom saying of a few of the others, this is actually the sort of thing that lots of landlords would probably really appreciate knowing. I don't think its likely that they would try to make your life miserable in any way if you let them know that they will be able to do whatever the gently caress they want to the place in short order. I guess this depends on who you rent from but I know for a fact that my current landlord massively prefers to get all that sort of maintenance stuff done in one go when rooms are unoccupied.

What? The Landlord will absolutely gently caress you. His other choices are have the place empty for a bit or annoy the new tenant. Or he can gently caress the tenant that is already leaving because who cares what they think. The only way they'll leave it till after is so they can keep your deposit to pay for the new carpet.

The thing about the Sun as well is that a lot of people treat it as an "adult" version of the Beano, they skip all the boring politics bits by reflex.

mediadave posted:Thanks - anything more recent than 2015 though? You can google "newscorp annual report", etc, and see the readership for every year. Looks like from 2017 to 2018, The Sun print edition lost 6% of its readership. This matches the general trend. Unfortunately, it seems that their online media is making up for the difference in revenue lost. So yeah print tabloids are dying but online tabloids are on the rise.

On distribution issues: Seize the means of media production? But then you're starting to get into full-blown USSR territory. The marketplace of ideas is clearly not working for the left though.

namesake posted:What's your history with the agency? Have they been responsive to your requests before or really bad? Something like carpets are probably easier to do when the property isn't tenanted so they might be very keen to know they can do it fuss free in a short period of time but that depends entirely on the service they normally give. No explicit beef with them, quite unresponsive with getting stuff done but not on the really bad scale. ronya posted:just suggest to postpone the carpet change by a couple of months first and see what the response is FiftySeven posted:Despite the doom saying of a few of the others, this is actually the sort of thing that lots of landlords would probably really appreciate knowing.

Thanks guys. Doesn't seem like like an out and out keep quiet about it, so I'll think some more about telling them or perhaps more likely making another excuse.

StarkingBarfish posted:Malt loaf toasted with butter is loving amazing and I will fight you. look, I too have been afflicted with Enjoying Malt Loaf, I too know what it feels like, but I have the personal strength to admit that it is a defect of my personality, possibly due to poor parenting or being infected with Britishness at a young age. If you actually think about Malt Loaf objectively and rationally and ponder as to what could possibly be actually good about it, I'm sure you'll come to the same conclusion. I'm not saying we can't Enjoy Malt Loaf quietly in the privacy of our own homes, but exporting to other lands and promoting the consumption of The Loaf as a pretended valid lifestyle is where we should draw the line.

Tarnop posted:Reinstating unions for workers at printing presses would be a good start. Agree. Something that I have thought about a lot lately that's tangentially related: why do right wingers succeed? In part it's network effects and 'lol gently caress u got mine', but that mentality seems to be genuinely useful in succeeding under capitalism. Right wing ideas like the just world hypothesis and the idea that everything that happens to you is your own responsibility are also indicators of mental health. Now whether this is because mental health is about adjusting to the world as it is I don't know, but it's a sad fact that left wing ideas like "systems and collectives determine outcomes more than individual behaviour or merit" are also depressive.

I wouldn't do this by choice but I have been gripped before by a burning need for malt loaf so strong I've eaten it unbuttered. Man I should get some malt loaf. That supermarket selection doesn't look too bad, it has the 3 things I'd demand from any such display. Irn Bru, Tunnock's teacakes and jaffa cakes.
