TACD posted:holy loving poo poo The pandemic shut down the most easily-accessible free source of support that some of the poorest families in the country have - Children's Centres. Usually, you could book a spot at a stay-and-play and go along, and your kid would get to play with some of the random stuff the staff had put out, and the parent could have a chat with some other parents, or simply have a chat with the staff. The staff were also there to provide some support with what to actually do with your kid, since that's not specifically taught anywhere (you might get some stuff via ante-natal education, but that seems hit-and-miss). Alongside other activities and classes/workshops and stuff like that. And it's free. And if the Children's Centre staff were concerned about how your kid was doing, they could flag you up to a Health Visitor, or an Educational Psychologist, or Occupational Therapist, Physiotherapist or Speech and Language Therapist. Or even refer you to an Early Help Hub for more targeted support if they were concerned you weren't coping. Yeah, the Children's Centres were still open - technically - but it was a lot harder to access the sessions, for infection control reasons you'd struggle to meet anyone who wasn't staff and you were also being told to stay at home unless your journey was essential. So loads of parents stayed at home. And when you're stuck at home with your child all day every day, most parents get really good at picking up on the esoteric ways their child communicates with them, so the child never needs to learn a more effective way of communicating. And when your kid keeps making GBS threads themself, you keep changing them, and yeah, you probably try toilet training but it probably doesn't go well and well, you're stuck at home anyway and probably massively depressed yourself so you keep changing the kid because it's the easiest thing to do in the circumstance and then they never learn anything else. gently caress it, if you did finally manage to get a booking at the Children's Centre, there'd be a decent chance that even if you were massively depressed, you'd get enough relief from going outside and meeting people (even if they're being paid to talk to you) that your poo poo mental health might not be immediately obvious to them; in which case, you probably wouldn't get flagged to Early Help or even your GP (lol). There's more to it than that, of course. Access to consistent schooling makes a huge difference for lots of children, just in terms of giving them regular exposure to typically-developing peers. So they can hear what the other children around them are saying, and learn from them along with the adults working with them everyday. And that was obviously disrupted in a massive way by the pandemic. (On the flipside, quite a few of the children I've worked with really enjoyed there being fewer children in school during lockdown, as the class wasn't as busy and they got more attention from the teaching staff). The absolute hatchet job that the Tories have done on Local Authority funding has had a direct impact on the quality of early intervention like Children's Centres and it's loving criminal that it rarely ever gets a look-in. Also, it's the one thing Blair did right, which makes it much easier to demolish the rest of his atrocity of a time in power.

forkboy84 posted:At some point it's just an area full of cunts & it's OK to call cunts cunts, y'know? There's plenty of poor people there too, it's not all middle class suburban hell, and Scotland has places like Milngavie & Newton Mearns with wealthy suburban flight types, but Jesus Christ, 95% of their MPs are Tories, I don't know why it's controversial to just not want any part of them anymore. A rainbow coalition to push PR would have changed that even within the constituency bounds on at least two elections since the mid 00s, and with the SNP having to be involved it might even allow for a Belgium type federal situation rather than the hard border gently caress off that the current government would want.

The Question IRL posted:That and the Bacon flavoured Mayonnaise. (Also Vegan.) I have a bottle of unopened vegan bacon flavoured mayonnaise in the cupboard. Is it good? It came in an https://www.eggcup.org/ weekly bag. Would recommend Eggcup to any Lancaster based goons. They give you a shedload of food for a fiver every week, but you do end up with a ridiculous amount of tins and weird things like vegan bacon flavoured mayonnaise in the cupboard.

Can't speak for bacon-flavored but I've heard that mayo is one of the areas where vegan alternative styles are actually superior to the original, or at the very least I can report that the cheese alternatives still have a way to go

Vegan mayo, especially Helman's, is great. Can't speak to the bacon flavoured one, but there's also some really good vegan bacon so it seems trivial to combine them

Only way is to taste it. I'm veggie, not vegan, and get a load of vegan stuff, but never tasted that one so cant recommend. Was given a vegan cheese spread as a gift at xmas and it tasted as if you could eat plastic. Vegan sausages are usually good no matter in my findings.

Tsietisin posted:Oh tell me about it. Like in 2020 when all the dentist's stopped working due to COVID, so when I got an infection all I could do was medicate with OTC painkillers and Orajel numbing gel. Christ, I'm glad you're alright. forkboy84 posted:I mean, I'm joking with the glibness because if you don't laugh you cry but it's my experience. Like I said in a later post, severe depression & a conviction that I'd kill myself soon meant I did a dogshit job of looking after my teeth & I've horrid problems ever since. Have had mild infections to this point, it's absolute loving misery but my choices are to suffer through it for a week & hope it goes away (Orajel is really useful as well as cocodamol, Orajel is expensive but really does numb the pain adequately enough that getting to sleep is possible.) because if it gets serious I really dunno what I'll do. Because at this point it's not just worries about paying for it, it's a joyful mix of social anxiety & just good ol' fashioned paralysing shame. Shame about what, might I ask? Bobby Deluxe posted:Apocryphally the only reason dentistry is seperate is because at the time the NHS was formalised the dentists pitched a fit and actually had the power to stop the whole thing happening somehow. So they wrre excluded from the deal. Why the NHS didn't take it over once they got powerful enough is a mystery probably answered by there never being an honest enough PM after that point. They must be brought to heel!

Unfortunately I think it's just going to lead to the fash level being cranked up another notch. Going to war with human rights lawyers was always part of the plan. This just gives them impetus to ditch who-knows-what international legislation.
