OwlFancier posted:There is a Terry Pratchett line that sticks with me "It won't get better if you picket." So you are in good company with the observation. Aha! I wonder what book that is in and if at some point I subconsciously noted it? Fake ed: Just googled it's from Fifth Elephant which I don't think I ever read.

As long as it’s something that’s been prepared by a telegenic rustic peasant in a sunlit dappled Tuscan village then it’s all good. I always preferred Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall anyways.  edit: Last week i got Lidl branded deluxe black/white puddings that were made in Ireland, such a sublime concoction that put Denny or Dochertys to shame.

Comrade Fakename posted:Caitlin Moran is BACK! with a book that is this time about men. According to this absolute slating, 13 pages in she says: "I couldn’t think of any book, play, TV show or movie that basically tells the story of how boy-children become men.” She literally cannot think of a single coming-of-age story about a boy. Not, for instance, About A Boy. Or Boyhood. Or around one billion of the world's most popular stories and film/novel/TV/comic book franchises. I'd suggest she read/watch Dune, but I suppose that's technically the story of a boy becoming a man becoming a god becoming a genetic memory of his son becoming a huge psychic worm.

Is Ivo Graham a oval office? I'd assumed he was because he's Etonian but he seems kinda decent every time I've seen him on the idiot box? Is he secretly a babyeater?

For what it’s worth Ian Bruce (of the Correspondents) is an Etonian non-oval office. Really nice guy- my brother directed one of his videos and he painted a loving amazing portrait of me. Frank Turner, while he makes great music, is a full-on Etonian oval office sadly.

Tesseraction posted:Can I get his bridging company to finance my extremely tiny violin? Yep. Having had to work in mortgage stuff for a little while, all I see is someone specifically setting out to set up other people to fail and also to take advantage of Greed and other people. It's shockingly unfair to all the tennants who have to put up with this dude, and even more so to all the poor people who are stuck with bad mortgages atm. But this sort of rampant exploitation of rules is horrific.

It's a shame that the wokerati won't allow debtors prisons specifically for landlords and property chancers. That'd be a good way to get the harvests in.

It's about politics, ecology and the perils of following messianic leaders, plus worms... and weird sex(books 5 & 6). Avoid the books written by his son but do watch the movie by Denis Villeneuve.

There is definitely a huge push by the right rubbishing the NHS going on at the moment, just looking at twitter. Every other post in my feed is some fash pillock from GBnews, Talk TV or whatever slagging it off.

I used the NHS on Tuesday (MIU to see if I'd done serious damage to my shoulder) and it was nice to be able walk in and be seen to without having any financial concerns. I mean, the fracture clinic probably won't get back to my until tomorrow, but the nurses told me what was wrong and gave me a sling to stop things getting any worse.
