Yeah it's pretty much impossible to work out when, where and why someone got Covid (which we've admittedly been trying to do this week in my house) but at the very least they put him in significant danger for a free holiday.

That would be great but we all know they'd design the algorithm to hone in on someone else.

I watched that Potter reunion and her absence was delightful. I hope some of the cast agreed to be involved only on the condition that she wasn't. Notably known JKR transphobia defender Robbie Coltrane was one of the few to film all his stuff on his own and didn't interact with the rest of the cast.

I'm surprised she hasn't claimed that one of the students transitioned later in life to combat the transphobia accusations.

keep punching joe posted:Reminder that there was a whole book in the Harry Potter series about changing gender via magic in order to get into the girls toilets.  I think you're mixing up the polyjuice subplot in the second book (where they transform into students of the same gender to get into the Slytherin common room) with a (IIRC) brief joke in one of the later books where someone tries to sneak into the girl's bedroom/bathroom using magic.

Red Oktober posted:You can take a look at JustWatch and put in a few things you might like to see and see where they're streaming. Yeah Justwatch is a lifesaver now that every media company on the planet has its own service. Netflix is a good all-rounder and has a massive back catalogue of great shows they've made (and loads of films but only a handful are any good). Prime doesn't really have loads to offer that you can't get elsewhere although they'll have the LOTR prequel this year if you're into that, as well as the recent Expanse series'. Disney+ also has a surprisingly big catalogue now that they've integrated all of 20th Century Fox's stuff into the UK service, and is essential if you care about any of the Marvel or Star Wars shite.

Pablo Bluth posted:Justwatch is useful for finding that some movie or tv series isn't easily available in the UK but is free on some ad-supported american service that works via a VPN... The worst thing about Prime is that it treats every season of a show as a separate show. So you can't put a whole show on your watch list, you have to tell it you want to watch each individual season. For a service devised by Amazon of all companies it's incredibly poorly designed and user unfriendly.

Christ that's rough. I can't imagine having to work anywhere close to that field. On a selfish note the idea of having a life threatening emergency is pretty scary right now. Even if you have the meant to get yourself to A&E rather than wait for an ambulance there'll be situations where you can't be safely moved without one.

Kin posted:Discovery sucks because all of the characters have this breathy niceness about them and being super nice to eachother all the time. There's no underlying conflict between any of the cast that isn't directly related to whatever plot is happening at the minute and as such they're all boring 2D cutouts disguised by that flashy cinematic overproduced look you mentioned. Yeah but there was that one time that Tilly said gently caress.

We usually go M&S if we're doing something slightly special like a fancy roast or a big picnic. Can't imagine doing a whole weekly shop there - Sainsbury's is expensive enough as it is.

Mega Comrade posted:Doesn't John Lewis somewhat treat its staff like human being also? I remember when I was younger it was regarded as one of the better retail jobs to have. Until recently (they seem to have stopped in the last year or two) they made their staff wear suits though. Imagine wearing a suit to work a till. Similarly all Waitrose staff used to have to look immaculate. I applied when I was 18 and knew I had no chance in the group interview when I was the lone fat, long haired oval office in a room of A&F models.

Prole posted:Starmer needs Johnson to stay put because every indication suggests that the poll lead Labour is currently enjoying will disappear in a week once a new Tory leader stands up and says they've drawn a line under the shameful leadership of the former Prime Minister. The British public are malleable enough to fall for it. Liberal blue ticks are already talking about how once Boris is gone things can get back to competent normality. At the same time nearly another three years of Johnson isn't something I'm particularly keen about (despite the alternatives being potentially worse).
