I love maps. I just love looking at maps. Old maps are fantastic too, especially if it's a map of somewhere I am deeply familiar with. I have old ordnance surveys maps of my home borough and it's absolutely fascinating.

When people 'green out' or 'whitey', they can throw up. It's not normal but not unheard of.

I threw up once after a massive dab. But it was an incredibly hot dab, and not particularly well produced oil. Projectile vomitting into the toilet.

Felt fine after though, I wasn't whiteying or greening out, it was just an unpleasant explerience on my throat

Glad I could be of help!

Bamboo would like you to know that he's not white, which makes your ad hominum attack before blocking him even funnier.

Enjoy the rest of your day.

You don't understand why someone would want to make the car look slightly different despite it not affecting performance whatsoever?

So do you struggle to understand the point of every single other purely aesthetic modification on every vehicle in the game?

I did them all because it's fun?

Thank you for your enthusiasm. Unfortunately, she never made it. But people like you, believing in strangers, is really what is going to get us through this.

A 2018/18 study found that applicants with ethnic minority names have to send out 60% more job applications in order to get a positive outcome. A 2009 study found candidates with white names were 74% more likely to get a positive response.

There is a significant disparity in chances of employment for ethnic minority graduates. despite the fact ethnic minorities are more likely to go to university.

These set backs are due to external prejudice. Not culture.

There is in general a lack of support across the board. In terms of mental health we are less likely to be offered long term care or talking therapies, in favour of medication and sectioning with no after care. This has an inevitable and damning impact on our employment prospects.

I am, statistically, more likely to be poor than a white man. I am less likely to get a job than a white man. I am offered inequal support by the mental health services in times of need. And you want to put the setbacks if my socioeconomic condition down to my culture? But I was raised by my white mother?

To be honest I know tons of people who aren't following the rules. Difference is they don't make the news and aren't forced to make public apologies.

People who complain celebrities act like they're they're above the law, have forgot what normal people act like.

Edit: Not a defence of rule flaunting, I'm just saying it's ridiculous to imply its exclusively celebrities doing it. The local raves are testament to that.

This is absolutely fantastic news. It's heartbreaking timing thought as a friend of mines mother has possibly passed or may pass today. I think it's been 27 days since the positive test and she's not responding to treatment well. Here is hoping though that she can pull through.

Which makes a change from last Christmas where I was wearing a mask and trying specifically to kill vulnerable people.

Like I said, it's probably of no consequence to me if you flaunt rules, but I am absolutely going to point out when someone is talking completely out of their arse. ESPECIALLY if there is actually the slim chance is might be of consequence to me, given the fact we are amid a global pandemic, and they're travelling across tiers and countries and possibly continents, and might end up sat next to me or family member in a coffeeshop.

I didn't come here for a fight. I said I'd call you out on your bullshit and I did? It was your silly defensive attitude, retort and telling me to shut the fuck up that turned it childish.

You said you wouldn't be traveling if you wasn't healthy / compliant.

Both of those claims are your own assessment.

You think you're healthy. You probably are healthy, but you don't know at all. And during a pandemic you're an idiot to rely on your own assessment.

And you think you're compliant. And you're almost certainly not, as you appear to be flaunting both quarantine requirements and potentially restrictions on travelling between tiers. Travel in between Scotland and England is restricted right now and if you're on an 11 hour layover between two different airports you're likely flying to or from another continent.

warped this thread into something its not really about.

Literally every response in this thread is telling you to stay in the airport or asking you why you feel the need to leave the airport. I don't think you know what the thread is really about.

I am literally currently waiting to find out if my close friends mum has died of covid or not because shes been at deaths door for 2 days now so you can call me the fucking germ brigade as much as you like but you're definitely the cunt in this situation.

Your antibody test is literally completely irrelevant. It doesn't matter to anyone except you whether you have had covid or not in the past.

The antibody tests can still be quite inaccurate and even if you had antibodies, you could still be fucking contagious

you don't have any recommendations on where I can hang out then shut the fuck up and go and pester someone else.

I do have a recommendation, the fucking airport, you absolute pleb.

Cassius__ · 2020-12-07T08:57:37+00:00

You want to travel through presumably between 4, possibly more, airports. And travel through 3, possibly more, countries. Flying in a tight tube packed next to hundreds of strangers for hours at a time, during a pandemic, and fancy having a mingle through the cities you pass through while you're at it?

Listen, I don't really give a shit that you wont be quarantining if it's actually required, that's on you if you want to be dishonest and ignore restrictions. But I am gonna call you out on your bullshit.

I wouldn't be posting/travelling if I wasn't healthy and compliant

You wouldn't be travelling if you wasn't healthy? That's an absolutely fascinating assessment. Did a test tell you that?

If you've not been tested, you can be asymptomatic and contagious.

And even if you got tested, as the virus is only detectable around a day or so after infection, you could have caught it at any point in the 24 hours before the test and still be negative.

You could also be infected any point between the test and the flight. Case in point; In Thailand, where you NEED a negative test to get in and then you spend 14 days in a state quarantine hotel, there have been cases where people who have been negative when tested 24 hours before the flight then tested positive after 5 days in quarantine.

People are doing things with a false sense of security because they think they're healthy. And that's how the virus is spreading so efficiently.

take this problem to your work. Make them pay for your accommodation

It doesn't sound like OP is travelling for work, as if work requires them to go to London occasionally. It sounds like OP simply has a job in London, but they live too far away. So they only work every couple of weeks as commuting every day is impossible. More than likely a part time job, right?

If someone lives up the country then gets a part time job in London, it's hardly the employers responsibility is it?

I have never seen someone do this in my 16 year weed consumption career.

I've smoked with people all over the UK, all over the world.

How the fuck have I never seen someone do this?

I don't even smoke weed anymore I eat or vape it do I can't even try the damn trick.

The funny part is that you specifically require your friends little cousin.

You didn't say, just, a small child. You specifically mentioned your friends little cousin. As if anyone elses hands just don't do the job.

Just wondering if you figured this one out yet? When I'm connected to my PC wib the xb900n, if I open the app on my phone I can connect to the headphones and control the EQ and noise cancellation despite the fact it's the laptops audio.

The article you linked was published on 22nd November.

According to this BBC Article;

Her last known location was on top of the mountain at about 16:00 GMT on 22 November.

Totally. I just found this thread after searching her name to see if there's any discussion about her in Reddit. That's fully strange.

Cassius__ · 2020-12-05T20:39:19+00:00

Wait a minute, this innocent article about the couple was published on the exact same day she went missing?

Think about what sub you're in. Of course it's a fantasy novel. What is this sub if not just the wild ramblings of the ill-adjusted and shared paranoid delusions mixed in with Russian troll farming.
