Jaeluni Asjil posted:Yes, though if you notified Labour Membership they ought to have done that, but in any case notify your CLP secretary and chair and they'll take you off the local membership lists. My clp sec was first port of call when I quit- I meant the clp list in the op but thanks regardless

Our family realised that the nurse who lives next door and their family don't come out and clap so we've decided gently caress off with it. It's liberation!

But if they're coming from your local CLP and they're not 'pretty' like the official ones with red tops via the Organise system then they've got you on a separate local list so I guess all you can do is reply and say 'please remove me from your list'.

Filboid Studge posted:Few guys I went to school with have been involved with the Lorien Trust for what must be the guts of 20 years now, I think they are the main Norn Iron contingent. The LARP world is both surprisingly large and entirely incestuous- I know (by sight/in passing rather than personally though) who you’re talking about. I had another goon add my on Facebook for fudge related reasons and had multiple points of mutual contact despite him not even being a larper. I guess the wider nerdy community is just as full of crossover.

That place is making want to I used to have a couple of those cornelius kegs in a fridge with tap holes drilled out the front in my student flat. We had a near constant 60 bottles/fortnight every fortnight on the go which between 5 of us was absurd. I should really find out what happened to the kit once I left.

Ms Adequate posted:Nah the cruelty is the point. I remember a documentary I watched a few years ago - think it was Portillo whomst was presenting - and after finding a potential means of execution involving some gas or other widely believed to be painless if it was used for such a purpose, took the idea to some top pro-execution oval office in Texas or somewhere. iirc the bizarre cocktail they use for lethal injections is used specifically because it keeps you awake until death (and has a chance of feeling like liquid fire is being pushed through your veins), when you could much more reliably kill people through injection by ODing them on anaesthesia. But like guav said, that's no fun because then they might die without knowing about it.

I started up again a few weeks ago after not having done any in years. I currently have about 40 litres of beer in various stages of completion. If you really want beer on a budget, you can get the startup equipment and first batch of materials for under £30.

As the inventor of the original cocktail puts it, it's currently at the stage where it's more humane to just use a guillotine.

Doing your own fruit wines out of cheap fruit juice beats beer brewing on terms of cost and effort- literally throw all the ingredients in a suitable container, leave in a warm dark place till it stops bubbling, put in bottles and await liver disease. Last time I made some it came to about a quid per 2 litres of very drinkable 14% fizzy fruit wine. You can even use empty 2 litre pop bottles to hold it I did an effort post one time but it probably got lost in the sands of time- I might do another batch later in the year- I'm not a drinker anymore but it's fun and a nice gift to give.

I remember we had a minimum alcohol pricing effortpost at one time, to counter the bad faith whining (and good faith questions) that always result when it's mentioned. I just saw this on the Graun liveblog, obviously it's just a snippet but interesting if truequote:Alison Douglas, chief executive of Alcohol Focus Scotland, said, “The initial results from the evaluation of minimum unit pricing are hugely encouraging as studies have found a significant decrease in consumption in the first year compared to England and Wales.

It's rather telling that livestock is slaughtered with quicker and more reliable methods than people. The US execution methods (lethal injection, as well as the older mostly discontinued methods like the electric chair and gas chamber) just have so many potential points of failiure built into them that I can only assume they're deliberately needlessly complex. I think this is in part due to proponents of the death penalty having a compulsion to add a sense of theatre to the process. Something as quick and simple as a captive bolt gun or nitrogen asphyxiation wouldn't satisfy this need.

I don't think it's necessarily people wanting to get their rocks off that prevents us from lawfully slaughtering people like cattle. "Needless" complexity is a defence against the realisation that we're just animals.

You don't get that with a bolt gun, although I suppose you could have a panel of people pushing the button for a dry nitrogen chamber. The heart of the contradiction is wanting a state that kills people without any identifiable person killing anyone.

Inert-gas asphyxiation is cheaper, more humane, and much safer and more reliable than any execution method in use anywhere in the world. The cruelty is the point.
