I eat a few of their healthier ready meals as well, and I buy their beef offcuts to mix in to make it a heartier meal. This is only a tiny bit harder to prepare than the soup - it just adds a little mixing. I keep apples, carrots and peanut butter near my bed, so I can snack on whichever is most appropriate for the amount of sugar I want

Batch cooking is very much the best idea, much more efficient in basically every way.

this video ends before he says "I have no idea why I'm relatable" and starts huffing and puffing about what a ridiculous question it is during the huffing he mutters "well how many relatives do I have?" which is a question you'd think he'd want to avoid raising, as the father of an unknown quantity of what I believe the tabloid press would term "love children"

Braggart posted:I think that we don't get or give enough compliments. It's pretty unusual for most of us that any positive achievement or anything positive about us is recognised by others I once heard of a theory that depressed people often need to learn how to elicit praise from others. And it seemed to match my own experience, where voluntary work (a situation where you can get a lot of grateful praise) helped a lot. So I do consciously try to dish out compliments, but it doesn't come easy.

If labour has any sense they'll capitalize on it regardless, because even if they get everyone out and put it out it's only a matter of time before another one kills a load of people.

It looks very much like the kind they put up for teesside uni, big cladding panels on the outside, probably made of thermite at this loving rate.

is there any legitimate argument for not ripping this poo poo off literally every residential building tomorrow? like, what are the practical consequences other than it looking uglier? I guess it might be bad for thermal efficiency (the heating kind, not the going up like a Roman candle kind) not that that would justify leaving them as deathtraps, obviously, but just is there even half a reason not to do it other than cost/aesthetics?

Counterpoint - based on the student housing a friend stayed in in Maidstone, the flats are so tiny that you can't get more than two people into a room.

Josef bugman posted:err. Does having one meal a day and it being just mcvities chocolate digestives count? Might be sufficient energy if you eat a lot of them, but lacking in other things you need from food. Eating just once per day isn't great either, if that leaves you hungry for large parts of the day. My unsolicited  is breakfasts. Muesli + (plant)milk is a nice and low effort breakfast.

This is why I shouldn't be an election strategist. I just immediately go to the cruel thoughts: How many points will the election go towards Labour if there's a death? How many austerity deaths does each death here prevent? Or maybe, you know, this isn't hugely significant in the election at all and I'm just grabbing at anything that might be good for Corbyn.

If it looks utilitarian and brutalist then they can't advertise it as luxury for additional rent in spite of the fact that it'd be no less functional or comfortable to be inside of (and of course less likely to burst into flames). I'm telling you, the luxury student digs are just ordinary student digs with a bit more MDF and a lot more rent.

They already look brutalist they're just brighter coloured and have more glass. Or if you're teeside they bought it in the iron grey colour anyway.
