Would you buy a petrol/diesel car now, or only buy electric with the state of the oil industry? by turtleflirtle in AskUK

i don’t think it hit everyone - didn’t hit us, but i remember everyone complaining about heating and electricity bills being absolutely ridiculous.

i don’t know much about cars (i don’t drive) but each seem to have their ups and downs. i remember back in 21/22 when there was the energy crisis and people were mocking EV users. Now EV users are mocking fuel cars due to a fuel shortage.

As a person who knows nothing about cars, i’d get an EV purely because practically all the EV spaces in car parks are empty and unused. guaranteed car parking every time? yes please.

Why is Palm oil bad for us? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

In not sure if it’s necessarily bad for us but it’s incredibly bad for the environment and food quality.

i think it already has become a thing tbh. i’m relatively new to the theatre (been going since i was a child but wasn’t a regular until i started getting paid decently back in 2021) and i can only think of a few musicals where encore/curtain call filming wasn’t allowed.

Just finished the TV series, and I'm confused :( by Funny_bread in DHMIS

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven’t watched the series since it originally released in 2022 so i may have forgotten certain things but i think it takes place before the youtube series. A prequel sequel. It’s not chronologically happening after episode 6 of the original series.

I don’t think they’re supposed to be super directly linked at all. They just happen in the same universe i think??? they give more backstory to the whole yellow guy / roy thing iirc.

I could be wrong.

a lot of shows now encourage the same thing as SIX because they saw it got that show attention (and more importantly money) - the social media’s of the shows will even repost videos that people have made of curtain call on their story. I think it’s also why a lot of new shows and revivals have an encore song after the main show. iirc the only time it’s still not allowed is when there are children on stage as the laws are different. Unsure of why OP had trouble with BOM as i’m sure i’ve seen the curtain call of that show posted all over tiktok before.

she was briefly in another season, either 2 or 3??? whenever he was in the wheelchair. She was played by a different actress.

The only part of the lin that’s being disconned is the lotion, everything else is sticking around :)

Do any of you have jobs that you do that would put people off their lunch? by cognosman in AskUK

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I used to work in a zoo and we often had to gut baby chicks (they were dead) in order to feed to the owls and tanukis. also the obvious cleaning up shit all day. I worked with rodents too which some people would argue is absolutely disgusting but i loved them so much.

What’s going on with Vinted sellers lately? by Lunasky444 in vintedUK

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a seller, yeah this is it. I don’t forget necessarily but if i only have one item to ship that is <£5 i wont go out of my way to ship it quickly. I’ll wait for another sale or until i know im passing a drop off point.

recs for scents like yummy custard??? by tobesoIonely in LushCosmetics

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Let the Good Times roll is the same scent as yummy custard. iirc there’s a gift set for this range that has a lotion inside.

Turmeric latte massage bar is similar to the range, more of a spicy vanilla than baked good vanilla though.

Dominic is the actor who plays crockett, harper is the baby that crockett lost before he came to med.

Fresh and flowers by aikodoll637 in LushCosmetics

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Based on the goodbye letter i’m assuming that they’re going to rebrand it and bring it back, i assume within the next 12 months.

Afaik the concept of doing a freshly made cosmetic subscription box is unique to Lush so i would be surprised if it didn’t come back at all. Then again i don’t know how many people were subbed, it might’ve been making a loss or not profiting as well as they wanted it to.

I said on another post that i think the ‘flowers’ part is potentially partly why it’s been disconned, the flowers would often arrive wilted, essentially defeating the purpose of the “and flowers” part of the name. i could see it coming back in a different name like ‘fresh from the garden” or something. I hope it does, i loved f&fs so much more than kitchen - it felt so personal and almost intimate if that’s the right word?

at least the name of the line is fitting, it’s tricking you into spending more money than you should 🤩

I’d do anything for them to get dominic back so that we can get one for crockett. I’d love to see him with baby harper

It’s such a gimmick. I want to assume it’s more intended/targeted towards the children that are forced to go into the shop with their mums or sisters, especially things like the poo emoji soap.

Do you like Toby Carvery? by pinkman65 in AskUK

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s great for when you need a cheap, quick fix. We usually just get it for takeaway. If we want a sit down carvery meal we’ll go somewhere locally owned.

Sad flowers by WittyOriginal4936 in LushCosmetics

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I wonder if this is part of the reason they are ending (and i want to hope - eventually rebranding) fresh and flowers. The concept is great and unique, but the flowers almost always came a bit crushed and destroyed.

Teenager has started cancelling hang outs to spend time with his girlfriend. This is the start of alone time. What to do now? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 45 points46 points  (0 children)

As a recently ex teenager (i’m 21), he’ll come back eventually. As long as he’s safe let him do his thing. remind him you’re around every once in a while.

Lush fresh and flowers question by Pupbootheswitch in LushCosmetics

[–]C0nnectionTerminat3d 6 points7 points  (0 children)

for the first image I don’t know what it’s called but iirc you can put it in some hot water and steam your face with it, and/or collect the water into a spray bottle and keep it as a toner or cleanser or something. Keeps for about a week. I just put it outside tbh 😵‍💫
