If you're ever smoking tobacco or vaping, you should be putting that lung space to smoking weed instead. This is why jobs where you aren't allowed to toke and be high suck and lead to lifelong stress.

Cerv posted:So? Just cos you don't like someone doesn't automatically make everything they say wrong. So you're not suspicious as to the motivations of a pro-Landlord lobby group? The ability to have sub 6 month lets will actually be an absolute lifesaver for a lot of people who are moving home. When I moved last we needed somewhere to stay while the purchase of our flat was going through. No letting agency would consider anything less than a 6 month lease. We ended up paying £350 a week for a short term let on a tiny 1 bedroom flat, well over double the going rate for a normal let. If AirBnB wasn't completely nonexistent in this town then I imagine we could've found something much better for us and cheaper too.

Someone else in my local paper has done the thing again where they've found some piece of pro-Brexit nonsense and sent it in as their own work, and it's been published in the Letters section. Here's the original article: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-real-casualty-of-brexit-reputations-of-economists-who-predicted-doom-2016-08-24 Though they added this pleasant little paragraph at the end: quote:If you bear in mind the number of Remain voters who were not born in Britain, the vote by

I still have no idea how they managed to make "staying in the EU means more muslims" fly. It shouldn't stand up to even the most basic of scrutiny. Believing it actually takes more effort than realising it's bullshit.

Forgive me if I'm much more suspicious of a lobby group that represents the interests of 97.5%+ of the landlord market and campaigns on things like restoring BTL mortgage interest relief because it's "in the interests of tenants".

There's a difference between wanting someone to shut up and claiming they've got the "world's biggest gob", especially when "gobby" is only ever used as a pejorative for outspoken women. Also, that tweet was sent before Brexit and the resurgence of IndyRef2 talk.

forkboy84 posted:Which is a surefire guarantee that The Graun will never ever gently caress off. I've just been reading "With the Peasants of Aragon" by Augustin Souchy, which is a shortish first hand account of a tour through liberated revolutionary Spain, with particular emphasis on the structure of the (mostly CNT FAI) communes and what challenges they faced. It's light on details (most communes are summed up in a page or so) and obviously composed in a hurry, but an interesting snapshot nonetheless. There are a couple of little gems in it that I quite liked: quote:(we saw) a group of 40 or 50 prisoners of war in a village on a mountain top about 50 yards behind the front line trenches. They were working on the road and there was not a single guard anywhere in sight. I asked who was guarding the prisoners and the guide answered with a shrug of his shoulders: “No one.” communism bitch fucked around with this message at 16:29 on Sep 2, 2016 |

Got an email from Labour advising me that I'll be receiving a ballot soon. Somehow avoided the purge despite informing them last year that I voted for Corbyn to bring about full communism, and my twitter feed is basically a Nicola Sturgeon shrine.
