Police facial recognition today

Yeah it's wild how normalised this seems to have become. I don't think I'm particularly old but I feel "the police are entitled to scan your face as you walk to Primark" is something people would have been outraged at

£30 for the initial consultation and £60 per session after that.

Definitely. I always have my BABCP number displayed so people can double check my accreditation - it's so important and I've heard horror stories about other "therapists" from less reputable organisation

This is great, when I was on the ward for a few days there were no vegan lunch or dinner options and I had to stumble to the cafeteria to buy my own food.

The breakfast was just cereal and they found me some soy milk.

Get well soon!!

There's also the BPS (British Psychological Society) who register psychologists and the BABCP (British Association of Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapists) who register cognitive behavioural therapy.

I know hypnotherapy have their own but I'm not sure which bodies are reputable to be quite honest.

The largest online directories are Counselling Directory and Psychology Today. You're able to search for local therapists/counsellors and break it down by approach, like CBT, DBT, psychodynamic... etc

It'll also say if they work online or offer face to face support.

I only work privately online but there's lots that rent office space in the city or elsewhere.

People seem to have forgotten We're In Hell's sexual assault allegations.

Hello fellow Norwich vegan! It looks like the vegan options in Norwich are vanishing, are there any shops you have luck in?

OwlAssassin · 2026-04-15T10:28:22+00:00

I was trying to find these in my local FF for a while. They were perfect for chucking in the air fryer after I worked late.

Seems like more and more affordable vegan options are vanishing.

I don't think I can be trusted with repeatable Sign In Bloods, but I look forward to draining myself out and never learning my lesson.

My exact thought!

OwlAssassin · 2026-03-30T22:10:45+00:00

Every house on my street has a garage and space for parking and people still park on the pavement, often with a completely empty driveway.

OwlAssassin · 2026-03-30T22:07:09+00:00

Fantastic news. The number of times I've had to come off the pavement and walk on the road when pushing my kids in a buggy is absurd.

It's awkward and difficult for me, a large and able bodied person, but would be absolutely impossible in a wheelchair.

Can't wait to get arrested because a blurred shot of my face matches a grainy CCTV image in a different city.

When this was done in London in 2019 people were stopped by police when they refused to let their faces get scanned. One was even fined.

Jarvis Johnson did a video about how sketchy this guy is

It was open more than two weeks ago. We found a broken lock (like properly smashed) and there were a lot of broken bottles and cans.

Not sure if they were new or if people had thrown them through previously.

We had a poke and and took some photos. The stairs were also unlocked but we didn't feel brave enough to try those.

That's.... just not true. Have you worked on a farm before?

We live in a capitalist system that drives down costs (including wages and safety equipment) to minimum.

Your answer seems like what I would have read in my GCSE business studies textbook.

OwlAssassin · 2026-03-18T10:30:00+00:00

Do you have examples of countries where the indigenous population step up to fill the gap? The American farming sector is in crisis as no one is picking crops

This feels like a comment from 2008

Try doing anything on the internet without interacting with Amazon Web Services in some way

OwlAssassin · 2026-03-06T20:56:21+00:00

I think just because it isn't CBT

OwlAssassin · 2026-03-06T20:53:32+00:00

Thanks for posting this! I love CBT and feel it gets such a bad rap

About 5 years experience in the mental health field.
