Lord of the Llamas posted:Oh my loving god. It's like they played the Sims, and made a little 4x4 tile house, and thought "Hey, my sims live comfortably enough - why can't ordinary people live like that? Housing crisis solved - the free market triumphs over quasi-socialism again! " In this day and age how can the first solution that comes to their mind be, "what if, freer markets?" and "what if we were more like Kowloon?". [e]: Beaten by Guavanaut on the Kowloon comparison.

So the alcohol minimum princing comes into effect in Scotland today. So an attempt to cure a societal ill through government policy, surprise suprise, is going to kill thousands of people because alcohol prices, in certain cases, just went up by over 300%.

Liam Fox saying the Lords are trying to 'thwart the will of the British people' by giving the decision on whether the deal is good enough to the representatives of the people instead of a handful of incompetent ministers. The Lords still needs further reform, but as unelected second chambers go, they're doing a pretty good job arguing for their continued existence right now.

I thought Hep A was now more linked to having to boil your frozen berries from Lidl. Although I got exposed to Hep A in an upscale restaurant in the Hamptons, so YMMV

It’s the same study that found that one third of the British public oppose Trump’s visit, one third support, and one third don’t know/don’t care. It really just reinforces that a majority of people are terrible and/or ignorant.

Although I got exposed to Hep A in an upscale restaurant in the Hamptons, so YMMV B is more commonly associated with bodily fluids, sexual transmission, and S.E. Asia. C is most commonly associated with drug use and sharps, but there's a ton of people who got it through transplants or transfusions before they even knew what C was in the 80s. There's some others too but they've never been the focus of public health campaigns so I have no idea what people associate Hep E with.
