My hangover cure today was; Last night's potato dauphinoise left overs. An effervescent multivitamin tablet in a pint of water. Film4. Might have a shower and go for a walk in a bit, the worst thing for me isn't really anything physical but the heightened sense of anxiety. I probably shouldn't drink at all.

The key is to just have 6± months of food in and rotate constantly, bit of a pain admittedly...also some vegan MREs for when poo poo really hits the fan and I need to camp out at Epping.

If the files really *did* get deleted there needs to be an enquiry about how that was even possible. If the files really *didn't* get deleted there needs to be an enquiry about how this is allowed to happen. Of course neither of these things will happen as this country is literally run by criminals.

Yeah that's how I heard of Thunderf00t originally a few years ago because he does have some really interesting and good videos but then I found out he enjoys abusing women online because they are feminists and also explaining how racism in Hollywood 'doesn't exist' or something and then the turbo-I'm-really-smart Athiesm. I guess you can get really good at a science and then you extrapolate from that you're correct about everything else and in what you do?

I haven't had corvid but my mental health is in the toilet (I mean it was already) and I probably won't have a job by the end of the year and I'm not sure how I'll pay the bills... Not really sure what to do or who to turn to the NHS system for MH help is hosed and my GP can't/won't offer me anything except an SSRI which in my experience makes everything worse.

Bit of a derail from covid and trainchat; I've been allocated an allotment! 125m2 for the pricey sum of £50 a year, should be in my hands within a week or so! So I wish to kit it out with a nice big shed but I'm obviously going to want to kit it out also with some form of heater and camping stove so I can drink tea and cook baked beans while I busy myself getting it all ready for next spring, is there anyone here with some advice on what I should be getting? There is also no running water so I'm going to have to look in to getting a water butt. Beans & butts hmm... (assuming heaters and propane stoves are not an issue but the rules haven't mentioned anything like that, surely tea drinking is mandatory on an allotment.)

killerwhat posted:Congrats! What are you going to grow? No I believe it has no amenities at all but I'll get to see on Monday. I've had quite a few suggestions but thinking about it this evening one thing I grew up with growing in my parent's garden was gooseberry and I don't recall seeing them in the shops...ever? Something to look into but tatties, carrots, leeks and wild garlic are things I eat weekly so probably I'd start there. Ratjaculation posted:Yeah check your tenancy for it, I believe a few won't allow gas left on site. That would be a shame if I can't leave gas on site but those mini camping stoves are fine to take back with me. I got myself a bike trailer during lockdown so water/equipment should not be an issue AND there is a Homebase only a mile from the plot so happy days.

I live in Leytonstone so not far from there and this part of London has such a fantastic choice of green space to go visit, I feel very privileged to have that in a big city.

I went to the local cenotaph today to read all the messages left but there was one poppy wreath with no message just a blank piece of paper - from the Conservatives. Messaging on point then! The thing is I've always had with Remembrance is that my paternal Gran fought in the war and she was from Ireland which always has been a slightly different ballgame for obvious reasons so I like the white poppy since it seems a bit more inclusive. To each their own of course.
