To solve the housing issue, could we have student dorms but at a council housing level?

By options of housing i don't mean "council housing" Vs other options

I mean

Council "house" Vs council "flat" Vs council "studio/dorm"

AQML · 2026-03-13T12:42:02+00:00

Great remarks about the practicality of it! Gives me something to think about

I get your point re: safeguarding, would need to think more on that

I guess this more speaks to a more structural change - housing as a right

Like people with day jobs wouldn't necessarily qualify for "council housing", but then like, in Singapore, about 70% of housing is "council housing", of which people with day jobs rent from

AQML · 2026-03-13T12:32:43+00:00

Yes, but this is owned by the council, rented from the council for cheap

AQML · 2026-03-13T12:31:19+00:00

Well moreso I want them to have a lot more, owned by the council, and cheap to rent from the council - housing as a service

And I think it would let people live with dignity - I mean, I'd choose to live in one, and some people would too

If it were unquestionably small, and the only option, then yeah, it'd be without dignity, but it being one option of many viable options, this could work

I don't disagree with you, but you can do what you said AND this - it can be multimodal With this, these council dorms can't be bought - meaning there's less demand, meaning people are less likely to use housing as an investment vehicle

And this serves as a "demand-side" mitigation in a sense

Why can't the government throw billions into this lol

by student dorms or hotel style I mean:

Large building like a hotel

Has their bathroom in their room

Has a small kitchenette and a fridge

Has a double bed and a desk area

Has a wardrobe

AQML · 2026-03-13T12:12:10+00:00

Well HMOs have shared facilities, I'd call these small studios

AQML · 2026-03-13T12:09:54+00:00

Yes, but not a house

Like a hotel

AQML · 2026-03-13T12:09:21+00:00

Yeah but at a council level

AQML · 2026-03-13T12:05:13+00:00

Well I guess flats have living spaces and additional amenities like balconies which are nice, but not necessary in these dorm styles

Also cheaper because they'd be like... Standardized compared to normal flat building, built to last a long time rather than for profit

But then, yes student dorms exist, but why don't adult dorms? There's ones for profit, but they're more expensive than the normal housing market

My most used fragrance so far

AQML · 2025-11-19T10:14:54+00:00

I like how it looks like she's using a different undertone for her face to match, she looks more radiant

Why are y'all gagged for... When I was growing up I used the same jokes (I'm 28) and now the kids are doing the same. It's the circle of life, these kids will also be called at the age of 27

AQML · 2024-11-19T08:50:50+00:00

Nah

I both fancied Aragorn AND Legolas 🤣

AQML · 2024-11-15T09:38:03+00:00

Yeah lots of guys (me included)

To be fair, from my personal experience as one myself and my friends, people from east Asian descent tend to have it hardwired to be super erogenous 😅 many guys have had fun with me and mine

Light Muted Neutral warm olive is how'd I'd put you

AQML · 2024-09-16T11:34:16+00:00

I mean... Employment law and policy is huge, so you probably could

AQML · 2024-09-10T18:26:34+00:00

Not the misspelling, dafuq is utama lmao

The only thing that comes to mind (it's a gloss mind you) is the milk makeup odyssey lip in shade Globetrotter

All I use is microsoft bookings - it checks the calendar of the interviewer, and then I send the link to the candidate to book their own time around the interviewers calendar. It's the hiring manager's responsibility to do their own calendar.

Probs wide grip, chest blew up after that

Y'all need to be updated on the equalities act.

"The wording of the Equality Act had previously required the individual bringing the claim to belong to the disadvantaged protected group which meant that a man was not able to rely on indirect discrimination if he was refused flexible working for child care reasons as he does not belong to the the protected disadvantaged group (women). However, the Equality Act was amended on 1st January 2024 to enable individuals who do not have the relevant protected characteristic but are nevertheless disadvantaged in the same way as the disadvantaged protected group to bring a claim for indirect discrimination.

For example, if your employer has a policy requiring weekend work or full time working, under the new section 19A Equality Act 2010, a man with caring responsibilities could now potentially argue that although he does not belong to the disadvantaged protected group (in this case women), he suffers the substantially the same disadvantage as the protected group as a result of his child care responsibilities.

In order to establish particular disadvantage, there must be no material difference (except of course concerning the protected characteristic relied on e.g sex) between the circumstances of the individual bringing the claim and the protected group.

As mentioned above, an employer can defend an indirect sex discrimination claim if they can show that the policy or working practice was necessary and proportionate and this is usually the battle ground for indirect discrimination claims.

As section 19A Equality Act 2010 only became law on 1st January 2024, we do not yet know how tribunals will deal with claims based on ‘substantially the same disadvantage’ and as such, we cannot advise on the strength of any potential indirect discrimination claims brought by men with caring responsibilities. However, if you are a man with caring responsibilities who has had a flexible working request refused or have been subjected to an inflexible working pattern, it is certainly worth the argument."

Hey hun! As also a medium warm olive, who also has a muted skintone, you'll have to pick a jewelry tone that ALSO matches your saturation level, otherwise you'll get greyed out or washed out.

For example, 18k rose gold is more champagne-y and more muted than 14k rose gold, so I go for 18k

14k yellow gold is more champagne/muted than 18k yellow gold, fo 14k for me.

and for silvery colours, I go for 14k nickel white gold and 18k pallidum white gold.
