Right now it's blue skies over Bristol. However with my experience of storms this is often how it can be mere minutes before it all goes to hell.

Got an all staff email to say at home, not that I was going to go in anyway but now I can wear a dressing gown without feeling some pangs of guilt for my colleagues. Except all the people who have to be on campus because it’s in their contract tho I’m sorry for them

Forget the storm, just pulled the ol sacroiliac joint in the gym, been awhile since I last did that. Last time it took me about a year to get over properly, so really, really hoping this was just a twinge and not something more permanent My partner had to help wash and dress me when I got back in. I genuinely feel a bit like vomiting from the pain right now lol

men up scaffold on the building site opposite work and cranes still operating, this whole storm is overblown there is a man whose job appears to be fasten the bits of plastic safety netting back to the scaffold and they last like 30secs and he's been going back and forth for maybe an hour now, i assume his boss hates him

Had to rush out to retrieve neighbours'* wheelie bins from the road. Experienced lots of invigorating sea air in less time than usual, would recommend if firmly anchored down. *Is there a better word for people with flats in the same house as you?

Needed to get some butter, glanced out the front door and all seemed calm apart from the jumbo-jet noise of wind blowing through the big building going up at the end of the street - but it sounds like that all the time so I didn't pay it too much mind. Walked round the corner of the block, out of the lee of the building, and the wind said: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Gr0pKI-eeg

Really starting to pick up here. Next door have so much garden paraphernalia it'd make a B&Q foyer blush, so it'll be fun to see where all that ends up later.

Biggus Dickus posted:IIRC this one was investigated and found to be an urban myth. What actually happened was two local yoots scrawled some graffiti on a wall. The rest is typical over-inventiveness published as fact. The Vice article seems to be distorting things a bit, quoting the Guardian as saying the pediatrician was "hounded from her home" when that exact quote wasn't actually used in the article. It says that the local police speculated that the graffiti might have been the work of some local teenagers, but the inspector actually quoted in the Guardian article says nothing of the sort. So even if the police did speculate as such elsewhere, it doesn't appear to be the case that we can assume that's what actually happened. Further, it links that event with the events in Portsmouth, which it describes as follows: quote:It turned out that around the same time, on a Portsmouth estate called Paulsgrove, residents had set fire to a car, whose 55-year-old owner was not a pediatrician. He was, however, on News of the World’s sex offender list. quote:At one point a woman, thought to have been Burnett's sister, came on the scene. Her car was turned over and torched. That's not the same thing, VICE! The article then finished off by referencing the events that led to the News of the World's closure: quote:Payne’s killer was sentenced to serve a minimum 40-year prison term, and News of the World would be forced to close in 2011 as a result of another kind of mob: public outcry over the paper hacking into the phones of the victims of the 2005 London bombings, as well as relatives of British soldiers killed in action and a 13-year-old who was murdered. Which is a skillful bit of misdirection--even if it is true the messages were auto-deleted, it doesn't change the fact that the NotW was hacking into people's voicemails! But apparently people being upset at such a flagrant violation of people's privacy makes them a "mob"?

Still perfectly still out. Unfortunately there's a cm of snow on the ground and it looks like it doesn't plan to stop anytime soon. First snow that's actually lay on the ground here this winter.

killerwhat posted:Ouch, how did you do that? Squats? Hope it improves soon Yup, squats. I was a bit tired and probably should've stopped one rep earlier, but no. Got loose, bent the wrong way, bam. It was deadlifts that caused the initial injury all those many, many years ago though

Barry Foster posted:just pulled the ol sacroiliac joint in the gym It really is the worst place for a moveable joint, mine goes *twinge* on a semi-regular basis if I sleep in a wrong position but luckily nothing extra debilitating yet. If I leave it 24h of ache and then do a very specific lying down roll-twist-and-clench manoeuvre it will clonk back into place like a heavy car door closing.

Yeah, there was some other thing I used to do to relieve it, can't remember what it was, like bending the leg in a certain way just gonna leave it the gently caress alone for now though

UK citizens were ‘not fully informed on implications of Brexit’, EU report concludesquote:“British citizens had scant knowledge about the European Union and were not adequately informed about the far-reaching consequences of the decision to leave the union,” the report said. quote:MEPs said “misinformation” had influenced the UK’s vote to leave and warned that future referendums were at risk of “disinformation, foreign interference and funding irregularities”.
