keep punching joe posted:Has the 'straight people getting mad about not being allowed to use the f slur when singing fairytale of new york' discourse began yet? Doesn't really feel like Christmas until then. The Grace Petrie version helpfully replaces that line with "we love Diane Abbott", which, again helpfully, likely gets those same people even madder https://youtu.be/cBwqjwB6Skk

Just what were the restrictions in April this year? Because that video doesn't look all that damning to be honest. Isn't one of the big things about the various Johnson photos/scandals is that they were at the height of restrictions in spring 2020 and Xmas 2020? Also, yes, that blurry creepy video of what could be mistaken for the world's saddest party doesn't exactly make you think starmer is having a grand old time while everyone else is shut in, which is another reason the Tory ones hit hard

So my partner had a positive lateral flow test yesterday and we cancelled our Xmas plans. We both went and got a PCR test and the results came back negative today, but she took another lateral flow test (from the same batch of 7 if that matters) today and it was positive. She has no symptoms at all. Our Xmas day plan now is to go to a testing site and do another pcr in the morning and then stay home. At least we got given a case of wine before Xmas so running out of booze is vanishingly unlikely

Sorry for the completely irrelevant question, but is there a good SA thread (or other place on the internet) for asking very basic and poorly explained DIY questions that'll get easy to follow answers? We've moved into a place that has a doorway chin up bar, and I can't figure out how to remove it, and googling "how to remove chin up bar" and similar is really not helping.

Skarsnik posted:As you turn the middle bit the ends screw/push out, so turn it the other way The middle bit turns freely; there's no resistance when turning it in either direction so it doesn't seem like it's tightening/untightening. There's a small hole that runs through the middle, is there supposed to be a pin or something in here?

Borrovan posted:Looks like it might be one of those ones that just fixes on by pressure, can you twist those slightly smaller end sections to screw them into the wider part & make the whole thing shorter? Pretty sure you're right about it being fixed by pressure rather than screws or anything. The end sections ("--" in your diagram) don't seem to screw/twist as far as I can tell, and the middle bit can slide all the way along from left to right, so doesn't seem like the end bits are screwed into the middle bit if that makes sense Borrovan posted:Try putting a small screwdriver in, twist it round to see if there's a hole on the inside somewhere so you can lock it into place & screw the ends in Will try this- the hole is too small for a normal screwdriver - it's cracker screwdriver small - so might be there for a while until I remember to source something usable Skarsnik posted:Either that or the mechanism broke which is why it got left there.. The previous owner never cleaned the place out properly, leaving a bunch of broken stuff (including a broken washing machine, underpants, and all manner of crap in the shed including a jar full of manky yellowish liquid) so this tracks

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Have you seen the original West Side Story? How did it compare? It's one of the few musicals I find bearable. My totally official and 100% objective list of musicals to watch for people who don't like musicals: West Side Story (1961) Singin' in the Rain (1952) Cabaret (1972) 8 Women (2002) London Road (2015) Also probably New York New York (1977) even though I've not seen it cos come the gently caress on it's Scorsese doing a loving jazz musical between Taxi Driver and Raging Bull, how can it not be at least weirdly interesting?
