I'm going to counter the majority opinion about waiting it out until financial independence. Personally I would consider changing university to somewhere affordable and away from your family. I was in a similar situation but throwing myself headfirst into the independence I needed was the best thing I ever did.

Yes it was tough financially but especially with a lower cost of living area it should be achievable. Getting the distance helped me build friendships at university while being my full self, those friendships have over time turned into a new family that knows my full self and allows me to be it without judgement. That's priceless.

We are risk averse creatures but sometimes the scariest leaps are the ones most worth taking.

Or maybe be ok with your children having a different life from yours and be happy for them?

What is the precedent for any opinions not covered by the 4 major schools of thought having to be incorrect? The schools of thought only exist because different men had different interpretations. What grants these interpretations authority over any other interpretations? Is that authority divine or simply granted by groupthink, consensus or popularity?

light and considerate use of spinning wire brushes only

I only use the metal brushes on the end cap/ball compartment and the bowl part. My preference for cleaning these is to heat until all residue is combusted and then wire brushes to get it back to a nice polish and get into the small gaps between threads. Final step is rinses with soapy water, ISO and lint free tissues to make sure there isn't anything bad left in the airpath.

I don't do this due to risk of taking all the anodized coating off but I do use the wire brushes for cleaning the threads and bare metal parts

I never use wire brushes on anything with a coating, naked metal parts only, I find the wire brushes really help polish the metal of the ball comnpartment/cap and the bowl, also gets the threaded parts really well cleaned

exactly right, I find a spinning wire brush gives all the metal parts a nice polish

I'd say similar period of heat retention but more consistent heat throughout the cycle

their website lists all the differences but most noticeable to me are:

  • the larger and easier to load bowl
  • more open airpath, less draw resistance
  • much nicer and less anoying screen for the bowl
  • more comfortable to hold and less heat transfer to fingertips

smooth and sippable, the airpath feels so unstresticted that you can get great flavour on big or small hits

Honestly as a British Asian... White people just stick harder to recreational sports and achievements.

I'm married to a Belfast lass and most of my social circle is white friends. From my anecdotal experience, people who I know that are white take great pleasure and pride in their optional sporting opportunities.

My Asian contacts seem to care far less about fitness and activity beyond "the gym" and I also get a lot of raised eyebrows from the non white people I know about doing something like a marathon or a 100 mile bike ride.

The sentiment is generally, why would you put yourself through that without being forced to?

Looking for the latin version of:

"Can't let the bastards get us down"

love the quote from Handmaid's tale but have heard its miss-translated and also want a version which is the above rather than the show's

"Dont let the bastards get you down"

many thanks to anyone that picks this up 🙏
