Cake, is it a drug, or is it simply a delicious chocolatey piece of heaven?

I unironically want to go to this pub.

(since I'm not a hipster, I have to specify that the unironic is actually not meant ironically. I'll leave that up to Party Boat.)

I never had a student loan because I studied in the socialist republic of scotterland then hosed off to engerland to get a job in a place where I didn't have to hear Scottish accents except from big issue sellers.

True story, I was on the other side of the loving planet from the UK in Sydney, and there was a loving weedgie selling the big issue. And my loving neighbour was a fat string vest wearing mong from fauldhouse.

i was walking back from the shop once and kicked something into the gutter by accident. on examination it was a ten-bag.

i left it where it was because i'm not desperate enough to scavenge for cannabis, but still. expect the unexpected.

If it's coming out of your pay check then I know it's a pain in the arse but I can't stress enough how much more effective going into government/council buildings and talking to a human is, preferably before something that is going to happen does so. So much within the civil service is done automatically by a computer and then when it goes wrong it's people with minimum training and a computer system that won't let them do much on the help lines, few years ago all this stuff changed from being dealt with by the actual departments to being outsourced to call centres, so it's a completely different set of people working at the bricks and mortar buildings. Take pay slips in and show them that it's a bonus, people who work in these places are not absolute bastards, I've found this type of officious twat tends to gravitate towards the counter jobs at job centres and the housing benefit desk at councils.

probably a good chance of getting tasered these days tbh if for example someone were to try to go over the head of the job centre to speak to someone about a benefit sanction :/

One of my friends (angry black woman) once told one of these people that if they didn't re-start the (mistakenly stopped) child care element to her benefits so that she could keep working that they would be looking after her 5 children for her during the day. She then left said pack of children at the desk and walked out. She made it to the lobby before somone came to take her back and then they were magically able to sort it all out with back pay.

ive found it



also it turns out if you click an imgur picture with zoom, the zoom function waits until the picture's finished loading before kicking in. it will also only run that function if the tab has focus.

so i just clicked a tab i'd forgotten about and had this lunge out of the screen at me

"I'm a really useful engine!"
Recently read the book of The Martian and while the first maybe 80% is like turbo nerd piss bolted onto a pretty cool story which is written in a highly engaging manner, the last 20% is edge of the seat thrilling and real cool.

I spent yesterday getting hammered at my awards evening for my band and then went to Popworld in Guildford in a tux so have spent today feeling sorry for myself travelling back to Glasgow.
