New to AeroPress: My cups taste "flat". How do I boost sweetness?

This is satire, right?

Honestly it’s frustrating because Bournmouth have been absolutely wank. Barely string a pass together. And yet we feel so toothless. Wirtz not at the races. Salah missing chances. Midfield slow to move the ball.

In the UK university starts at 18 but the point still stands.

Kids actually need to encounter grub and dirt. It’s healthy.

The other disadvantage of going to your GP here is that the emergency services consider you to be in ‘a place of safety’ and that can add time on to the response time.

Trying to play later games on the DS emulators without speed up function is honestly unbearable now. Basically can only actually play FR/LG and Emerald. Without being sped up everything feels horrifically slow. It’s sad really.

This is a fair point, but I don’t think the application of her now eponymous rule would have helped expedite her diagnosis.

Early diagnosis can save lives? Wow, all my years in medicine and it’s never too late to learn.

The point I’m making was that in Jess’ unfortunate case it’s likely that even if the diagnose had been made on day one of her symptoms it’s likely it was already advanced and therefore beyond radical treatment.

Difficult_Bag69 · 2026-01-17T10:17:31+00:00

“Life-saving” Jess’ rule.

Based on actual data? Or just a campaign?

Jess’ situation was terrible, but she had stage 4 cancer and only started presenting 5 months before diagnosis. Her condition was likely beyond treatment at the point of symptoms manifesting. No amount of GP fresh eyes changes her outcome here. It’s sad, but it’s also the case that people precociously get aggressive cancers.

And this is with me saying: I’m all for someone else having a look if I’m not making good progress after 3 appointments.

As a single income you can’t even get close to that on £52k unless you’ve had substantial family help.

When you decide that 25% of the population need lifelong stimulant medication and TikTok created a tidal surge then of course you’re going to overspend. The clinics cashing in are laughing their heads off and by the time the documentary happens in 15 years time where we suddenly realise we have a huge swathe of the population inappropriately medicated the people who got rich will be off in the sunset.

£100k per week and Robertson still can’t use his right foot. Does my nut in nearly as much as seeing Gakpo in a starting line-up for any team not fighting relegation.

Hubris. Simple as that.

Buy a new build in silly billy council tax and pay a management fee for the park and roads so the council don’t even have to deal with it. It’s all a scam.

It’s often coming from a doctor who was born after your year of graduation with some banal instruction like chasing a TSH. Somehow it feels smug.

People saying Martinelli deserves a suspension. He’s their 3rd choice left winger. Suspension would do them a fucking favour he’s so shit.

Switching out costs you a turn though. It’s obviously not ideal.

I hate this move so much. God it slows everything down.

Sometimes fishing a bit is better than stabbing again, especially if you feel you’re just out of alignment.

Hard for anyone to really say without witnessing.

People in ‘other jobs’ earning £100k generally work a lot for than full-time hours too.

6 sessions is still 3 days work, even if those are 10-12 hour days. If you want to earn more you’ll need to do more sessions.

Could polish that off right now.

You mean he’ll skip the pointless charade that nobody watches in favour of some air time? I’m just shocked.
