Check out tree law cases in places like Oregon that mandate min. triple damages. People quite literally lose their houses because they cut down a tree that wasn’t theirs.

Nearly put me to sleep. Has a certain asmr quality to it.

How many times can they make the same thing?

Video games thread sends its commiserations.

We’re proud of you mate. Take your bins out and hold your head high.

V interesting. Ta.

TIL Carhartt WIP exists.

That’s awful.

Don’t want to rudely change the subject, but any anecdata about having a sore tongue during a covid infection? I utfsf but no dice. (Update - Found covid tongue vía google. Swollen and or spotty tongue might be related to covid, but could also be other diseases)

Or store them separately. I keep a dark chocolate bar for my partner, she keeps a fizzy drink for me. If we’re having a particularly low mood, even just knowing that extra little cheat treat is available has been helpful.

On the flip side, I’ve realised that I’ve become a stress eater. Have to sort that out addressing the root cause, while not adding more stress lol. Would not recommend using food as medication; that said, it does have its uses.

The ol’ potato in the exhaust trick. Presumably one can’t control exactly when the engine will blow, so it might happen as the person is driving, probably causing an accident.

Your protective instincts must’ve given you a helluva(n?) adrenaline dose, hope you’re able to unwind quickly. Your kids ok?

‘Well scheisse, since there’s nothing in the electoral rules against murdering the opposition, I guess we have to declare this guy legally elected.’

Lol.

Not in London. Cat, dog, human feces go in rubbish bin.

To commiserate with the guy, without justifying the screaming, it’s technically fly tipping to use someone’s bin without permission. Sounds like he’s been burned before and even that non-inconvenience proved too stressful.

I saw it on a low day with my gf, to cheer us up. Paid cinema prices for the pleasure.

Might be late but an open Bond discussion thread would’ve helped the healing process.

Gnarly. Glad you’re not only alive but intact.

IANAD, but from personal experience deep scabs on hands hurt like a mf when they get dry. Particularly if the wound edges are dry and cracking with movement, it’s like being cut with a scalpel. I’ve had good results lessening this pain with sterile ointment, keeping sharp hard edges moist.

BBC are amazingly quiet on

Don’t take it the wrong way, but folks put way too much faith in the official state broadcaster/media arm.

I’m dreading omega, (wo)man. After omicron it’s the most dire sounding letter. Add all the judeochristian dogma around alpha and omega, and it’s a field day for fanatics.

Do you think that everyone who has not taken the covid vaccine are "anti-vaxxers"?

No, as you said there can be many reasons for being unvaxxed.

The most prominent reason, and most concerning imo, is when people feel reticence or fear about the possibility of the covid vaccines causing them harm, with no statistically meaningful, factual basis for this fear.

Some of these people will be naturally predisposed to distrust or anxiety about these issues; it seems that the majority of objectors are specifically concerned about the covid vaccines. With no scientific evidence to back up either camp’s concerns, the line between anti-vaxxers and anti-covid-vaxxers gets pretty blurry.

*Add onto this that anti covid vaxxers use many anti vax arguments to justify their positions, and the line seems to disappear entirely.

anti-vaxxers. A big part i would assume are ppl with concearns about their health and dont like to put "unknowns" into their bodies.

At what point do they become anti-vaxxers? Unless they have advanced degrees in the specific scientific discipline, every vaccine they’ve ever had put ‘unknowns’ in their bodies. If they’re not sure by this point about covid vaccine safety, what will it take to change their minds?

Windrush square in central Brixton has tons of PCR availability today, if needed. Walk in caravan outside of the library.

Disturbing cartoons. Can’t believe kids were the target audience.

The smell…

Haven’t heard of that ever being done. Distributors tend to have a process in place, sometimes as simple as logging in, filing in a form, and sending back the product for replacement/credit.

I thought this might be here. Pretty shockingly foreseeable, hopefully won’t ever result in a tragedy.

Interesting. Haven’t devoted much thought to it tbh. Would be interested in what others think.
