Yinz is definitely a Scots thing

Only if we sequester your corpse in a mine shaft

The blessing exists. I’m in my 30s and my dad who’s in his 60s has more hair than me.

Or a knife

I’m pretty sure I’ve heard reliable reports of stoma gonorrhoea.

Ever seen someone pick fruit out of an enteric fistula?

Sure, because the media is generally profit oriented and therefore aligned with capitalist interests. We need more mutually supported and supportive media and journalism.

I’d half agree; they could raise taxes instead of making cuts.

It’s nice to be able to go see a show, have some drinks after, stay the night in a hotel, then hop on the train the next day. Whether it’s with family or friends, a train journey can be a nice time to catch up, read, or watch the scenery go by.

Being able to do this reliably does foster a sense of connection, like you are able and encouraged to also enjoy these activities. It might not be as quick as for those in the city, but it is achievable.

Wouldn’t her being Jewish depend more on her mother?

I like the tip for reading with toddlers!

Isn’t that called a duathlon to distinguish it from the winter Olympic event?

It’ll be all the shit that’s sinking them

As if dairy fat isn’t subsidised already.

Cathedral city has a delicious mature cheddar, but otherwise yes I tend to also avoid most vegan cheeses simply because they taste crap. Even if they taste okay, they lack the faintest bit of nutrition; dairy cheese at least has some protein and calcium, but vegan cheeses are usually just fat and salt with nothing of value.

Yep. It’s very cool, but takes a little getting used to at first!

Nah, I’ve used my parents’ induction hob and it’s ridiculously fast to boil liquids. A half pint of milk was boiling over in 20s. Gas stoves can’t compete.

Okay, my original comment clearly came across as a weasel for COVID denial so sorry for that. Fuck denialism.

What I meant was that - like flu - it is an endemic respiratory virus which will be nasty but not fatal to most people. In certain contexts masks are less useful (not useless I suppose), and this is particularly in areas where mask use is minimal and strict (e.g. under the nose or constantly being touched without proper hand hygiene).

So what your cardiologist said could have been a realistic assessment of the current state of COVID, or denialism in which case they’re a dick.

There are varying levels of truth to that. How sincere were they?

Edit: See subsequent comment for clarity.

Meat rabbits?
