Sorry. I thought people knew the watermelon was a pro Palestine thing. People have been using it in their Twitter names and bios for a while now. Not that that means there is any truth to the ludicrous accusation about that TV Show

Come on side effect of SSRI meds for depression & anxiety is an increased risk of suicidal thoughts, especially in the first 4-8 weeks on them. Combine that with another common side effect, erectile dysfunction, & starting SSRIs can be a pretty bad time.

I do sometimes wonder if they don't just intentionally make medicine with ironic side effects.

i took em for anxiety and they sucked for me personally

discomfort, seizure risk

fortunately i appear to be in the basket of like 20% of anxiety sufferers where l-theanine, the magical chemical in green tea, is... magical. some brilliant japanese feller figured out how to isolate it some decades ago. Normal people and 80% of anxiety sufferers? It's pleasantly calming. Me and my ilk? it's miraculous (presumably because we have a deficiency in the brain chemical it stimulates)

I saw them years ago at Warwick Folk Festival they were chatting with a guy in the crowd, and his son, Luke (who was six). It turns out they’d met last year and Luke had told them that “I’m Like, I’m five and my Dad’s Bruce Lee. He drives me round on his Harley”, and they had adapted it into the song.

Oh, I didn’t make that clear - the Dad was down right accusing them of taking it and not giving any credit.

Which as it’s the hook of the song seems pretty fair.

So she doesn’t have or ever had tenancy in the flat being charged for? That’s odd as hell, hopefully. If you get nowhere let me know and will nudge some people I know Ovo way
She hasn't. She stayed in the same building but different flat. Billed for a flat on the ground floor when she was staying on the top floor. There's possibly some confusion because the flats either go by letters or position, eg: F is also top floor right.

Appreciate the offer of a nudge. Hopefully she gets some resolution from the ombudsman.

Annoyingly, HMRC have stopped putting a PDF self-assessment form online :( (SA100)

Even though I fill it in online, I like to print out a blank to make sure I have found all the info I need to input online.
I'll have to use last year's but they might have changed bits because they do occasionally.

If you want to fill in the paper copy to submit you have to phone up (after they said they weren't answering the phone for 6 months or was that rescinded - I've lost track!) and ask for it!

I just want it for prep work!

Excuse me, pardon me, sheer perfection coming through
i read on the beach in fifth grade which freaked me out about nuclear war so i bought the us army field survival manual (thank god preppers weren’t a widespread thing when i was a wee childe). it goes into how to handle surviving in the immediate and longer days after a nearby nuclear blast when i took very seriously at the time lol.

We got shown a "what to do in case of nuclear war" film at school in 1972/3 (so it wasn't Threads and it wasn't Protect & Survive). Can't find any trace of it online.
They had film of policemen wearing the tall helmets going around (can't remember why - maybe arresting people who didn't stay under their kitchen tables) and even then at 13 years old I was thinking "how come the police aren't affected?"

I did have a book called Nuclear War Fun Book too. Seems you can still get it.



and a game but noone would ever play it with me :qq:

I need to transport 3 bikes less than 5 miles in Sheffield to a bike charity shop that will refurb/recycle them to local schools and students.

Why the hell is this so difficult and expensive? It's almost walkable but... argh. I hate not having a car or being able to drive anything sometimes.

Can't just leave them on the curb with a note because that's fly tipping, the local facebook group is full of awful people who currently are ranting about people not deserving council houses if they won't mow their lawns and freagle appears to be entirely resellers and scams now. The one charity shop that does collect large items can't take bikes because they have nobody to check them so would just scrap them and they're all entirely functional.

I'm trying to do responsible things on a Saturday during the day and I think I might just end up playing video games instead at this rate. I rang like 5 people. 5 people! (ok it was 2... but still it was hard)
