Eddy-Baby posted:Hello lovely people! The normal course of action would be to help them access benefits, and get on the local housing register with homeless priority status. Unfortunately, that won't work here. It's going to be a really tough case, with most official support blocked. This is because the person is going to have limited access to public funds(no access to most benefits), and difficulty getting on the housing register(most local authorities require proof of a local connection- and entitlement to public funds). If they've come in without a work visa, getting work is also going to be very difficult. There's likely going to be some sort of street outreach service in your local authority, which will help anyone rough sleeping to a limited degree(temporary accommodation). Long term without access to public funds, it's all going to be about local groups and unofficial channels.

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jun/11/ecocide-russia-ukraine-war-kakhovka-dam-destroyed quote:the difference between Hitler and Stalin: while Nazis had some rules about who they punished (non-Aryans; communists) in Stalin’s terror anyone could be a victim at any moment. Random violence runs through Russian history.  They do know that you can condemn Putin without saying "say what you like about Hitler, at least he kept his killing organized", right? That this isn't a normal avenue of thought that one needs to travel for any reason? I trust this will be followed up as seriously as when a mayor has lunch with a film-maker who did a Q&A with someone who said some stupid poo poo about Nazism.

The key thrust of his article is that the Russians are simply evil and have been for centuries, carrying out outrageous acts of violence for the sheer hell of it, the death and destruction delighting their black hearts. (I'm not misrepresenting the article by the way, it's a very, very odd piece, even for the Guardian.)

Massive summer fudge release! (And a somewhat embarrassing plea) Howdy fudge fans! Summer's here, and with it a massively expanded range of sweet, sticky deliciousness from the Fudjit labs! We've got 22 different flavours on the market for your delectation and delight, so don't delay and go grab some summer sugar soon as you can. On a more serious note, due to greatly increased costs and decreased market takes across the board (People just don't have as much spending money as they used to) I'm in a bit of a bind. Right now after managing pretty well for three years I'm no longer making enough from Fudjit to cover my monthly bills and enjoy such things as 'food' and 'not panicking about where the next penny is coming from'. I can keep going for maybe a few more months if things don't change, but as a small businessman times are hard as all hell. I'm not asking for charity, but I would absolutely love to sell you lovely people as much fudge as I possibly can, if only to ensure said fudge will still be present in the future. As a disabled autistic dude who's only ever been chewed up and spat out by the system when trying to work normal jobs, being able to be my own boss has basically been a lifesaver and the idea of having to pack it all in and go back to working for someone else absolutely terrifies me on a visceral level. Each time I have it's ended up with me ultimately too sick to do anything for periods of years and I really don't want to go down that road again. There's multiple options I'm exploring to diversify my business a bit; to explore new avenues and methods of trade while remaining true to Fudjit's original core values. But all of these take time to pan out, and as it stands I'm not going to be able to pay my monthly bills at the end of next week after a particularly disastrous event this weekend. The one thing I do have going for me right now is an absolute gently caress-ton of amazing fudge in stock in a huge variety of flavours; some old and some brand new. So please, if you are able to afford to (I know everyone here will be feeling the pinch just as I am), grab yourself a few bars and help a fudge-baron out. That was not easy on the ego to write, so on a more happy note here's our flavour list at the moment. Current Flavours * Original Vanilla * Unicorn Barf * Chilli and Lime * Cookies and Cream * Irish Cream * Whisky and Candied Ginger * Cafe Americano * Strawberry Milkshake - Revised recipe! Now even more delicious- tastes like a Nobbly Bobbly ice-lolly * Rum and Raisin * Peanut Butter - Returning from my very first cook back in 2019, shot full of lovely crunchy peanut butter. * Chocolate Honeycomb * Chocolate Crisp * Chai Latte * Oranges and Lemons * Caramilk * Pretzelicious * Cheesecake * Maple-pecan * Chocolate Chip Cookie * Lemon Meringue Pie * Vegan Chocolate * Veganana- Vegan banana fudge with organic banana chips All stock is now live and available at https://www.fudjit.co.uk for Ł4 + P&P per 100g bar. And as always you can use the goon code 'Roastbeefisbest' to get 5-for-4 at checkout. Orders are shipped with Royal Mail 1st class, tracked. And thanks guys. Even if it turns out I can't keep Fudjit going then at least it's been a hell of a ride over the past three and a half years, and I'd never have even got started if it wasn't for this coterie of internet communists. All the best, and get fudged!
