I just remembered that he suffers from genuine mental health issues and feel bad now, he’s hated by the BAD Tories and JRM seriously put the boot in after Bercow left so I hope this is a drunken bet rather than anything else.

I went to a wedding in Finland once and it had by far the best food of any wedding I've been to so Finnish cuisine is all good as far as I'm concerned. Also the father of the bride speech involved downing about 8 shots of snaps and there was a wedding sauna. Great country.

I once went drinking with a Finn. When I say it out loud, it's so clearly an immediately bad idea, I'm shocked I did it. It went as you'd expect. I'm convinced their gullet just goes straight to the liver with nothing inbetween.

Mebh posted:How on earth does one get over a crippling fear of driving and learn to drive anyway? I hate cars. I had about plucked up the courage pre covid but gently caress getting in a strangers car now. Or ever. The guy who taught me to drive also specialised in teaching neurodiverse student drivers. His work doing that made him really good at being able to reassure and calm drivers who are nervous or have fears associated with driving. You could look into something like that perhaps? My tutor did his special stuff and was also an RAC instructor which was how I found him. Even though I was one of his regular RAC students he used whatever training wizadry it is he's picked up across both schools, which is probably why he had such a high pass rate.

On handy books, nth-ing Shock Doctrine. The Deficit Myth is an excellent summary of why MONEY DOESN'T WORK THAT WAY, with the added bonus that the way money does work is still compatible with capitalism, so if someone might scared off by ~~socialism~~ then it's a nice gentle introduction to the fact that all politicians have been lying about something fundamental (or they're stupid) in order to make people's lives worse for no reason. Then you hit them with the reasons why capitalism is bad actually. Such as Bullshit Jobs, which I just finished, which is kind of a side tangent but contains good examples of why capitalism is bad.

Do you indicate what you're into by what type of milk you carry? Imagine meeting someone carrying six pints of gold top, they're into anything.

I'm a pretty light drinker, I only need half a liter of vodka to get to that tipsy state where I have a lot of ideas and not much in the way of inhibitions. After a liter I start getting wobbly and having trouble staying on my feet. After that it's just beers for me, I don't need to always get super drunk.

I have to admit, you'd have to beat either for a very long time to see any meaningful change. Kesäkeitto takes the award for "most disgusting mistake on a plate" for sure though. Now mustamakkara, that's good food. Maybe not super healthy for you though.

Can't help thinking those kids are going to have her in a home at the first possible opportunity in a few years. An Italian couple invited me to Christmas Dinner when I was abroad once so I went. I don't know why I was expecting roast chicken and piles of tasty roasties but what I was confronted with fish, more fish, and even more fish. Apparently Italians think 7 kinds of fish are appropriate for Xmas dinner. I'm not a fan of fish so it was a real trial, let alone 99% of the conversation was in Italian or Arabic and was really stretching my brain!

I dunno if it's been mentioned in here but after 1st April landlords need to have an electrical safety check done of existing rental properties. So if you rent and nobodies been in touch I guess you might want to look in to it.
