Random Integer posted:Aside from means testing for free school meals being hopelessly inefficient, expensive and putting a massive barrier in front of people who need help (as all means testing does) its amazing how anyone even remotely involved in education could fail to see that it would automatically stigmatise any kids who do actually qualify. What world do they live in where singling out some kids as needing benefits wouldnt be prime bully fuel? e: You must earn less than £46 per day to answer this question, I will be sending mans round.

Some kids at one of the colleges in my home town (Shrewsbury, fact fans) returned from a college-organised skiing trip to Northern Italy on Sunday. They were in the Valle D'Aosta (sp?) region, which was not quite in the quarantined zone at the time, but not *that* far off. They were told by college officials that they were to come in on Monday as normal. Then Italy went into full lockdown. Tuesday rolls around, they're told not to come in any more and (perhaps entirely coincidentally, no clue either way) Shropshire gets its first confirmed diagnosis...

Coronavirus notwithstanding, lucky kids. The Val d'Aosta is gorgeous. I took my bike up some of the mountain roads up to Gressoney and then over the St Bernard pass last summer.

I just had an email from Labour "Now you've had a chance to settle in, we would love to know more about what motivated you to become a member of the Labour Party." I've been a member for 4 years and am on the verge of leaving as soon as I'm sure they won't be able to find and zap my vote. Also, for the past few minutes, I keep getting this pop up on the bottom left of my screen when I access the forums "Alex Jones got a DWI lol". Is that something on the forum or should I be worried? (Using a laptop not a phone).

Just got the official email from work. All business related travel, client meetings and roadshows cancelled. Work from home rota being introduced to check that we can support everyone (we upgraded the VPN today). New anti-viral cleaning solution being used, and mandatory 'go the gently caress home' policy for anyone who shows up with a cold. Jaeluni Asjil posted:(Sorry can't find anything on here except this thread!) Yeah, uh, that isn't a bad thing. Lot of early 2000s style posting still going on in some of the more interesting sub-forums. The new popup thing is massively irritating, especially the cookie banner that just takes you to the homepage. Why did they have to choose now to add the first new forums feature in the past decade?

Our work is still in the passive-aggressive "Make your own drat mind up" phase when it comes to going home. They have finally put piles of paper towels in the loos rather than expecting everyone to spray germs around off their improperly washed hands with the dryer. There's so much hand wash that there's never been a better time to start drinking at work.

I do particularly like it because I can't speak any french but I can cobble together enough of it from general romance noises to figure out: No, the cocaine does not protect against the covid. But it is an addictive drug that has grave and undesirable effects on the persons. OwlFancier fucked around with this message at 23:24 on Mar 10, 2020 |

It's like minion memes: if it makes you want to tear your hair out in a seething hot rage, you aren't the target audience. They are a coping mechanism, a desperate cry of agony from the hearts of milquetoast, boring arseholes. A bleat of distress in trying times, identifying yourself to the herd and seeking gentle reassurance. Alternatively, we can go back to crispchat / a couple of pages of https://thiscatdoesnotexist.com/

I mean if nothing else this page has made me go listen to old RATM songs and mentally tie them to the Labour leadership election, so it counts as a net positive in my eyes. (This is obviously an analogy for living in a neoliberal hellscape and gently caress Maggie) Looks like the race is on to see in Trump or the De Pfeffel gets it first then!

How much cough suppressant do you think they load Trump, Johnson and other political figures with before letting them on television? One tickle in the throat could wipe out the world economy.

Exact same chemical but in a geometric configuration that doesn't cause neurotoxicity. Can't be a bad time to stock up on nasal inhalers.
