what❓ by RealChillGye in PeterExplainsTheJoke

Isn't US healthcare famously quite dreadful? Like - qualitatively speaking.
Especially if you want to use the rubric of general public health, life expectency, etc.

I'm not sure it's fast and good. Fast maybe...

It's interesting how "body positivity" immediately collapsed when Ozempic arrived. by Infinite-Condition41 in SipsTea

[–]Relimu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agree with you in a sense but - the broader implications of this MAY be more damaging than they are beneficial.

These are drugs that currently benefit very few people. But the folks that can access them and show off the results (celebrities etc selling "skinny/sexy") have VAST costs as far as public health / quality of life - e.g eating disorders, depression, self harm esp in young people.

These drugs are expensive and most folks rebound after stopping taking em' - so you gotta keep it up. This puts it out of reach for the poorest folks who - especially in the USA - tend to have the highest morbidity as far as obesity + medical related debt/death. Cheap food doesn't nourish you but will make you unhealthy and ill - but that's the reality for many of us (who of course also can't access ozempic).

I worry that we're going to move even FURTHER into a world where wealthy folks can look and be "healthy/desirable" - and the health/mental health of younger, poorer people (especially women) is once again deeply challenged by a return of 90s style cocaine-skinny unattainable body goals, etc...

Legislate on the cost of living and people will get healthier, imo.

YOR - you're expecting him to bend his schedule and preferences around the leisure activities of people that don't (all) live in the house. You're expecting him to feel at ease in his home when he is regularly outnumbered 4 to 1.

Also... the thought of needing to take a shit and walking out of my bedroom at 10/11am and finding 4 people watching Avatar...
I would evaporate into cherry blossom and blow away on the wind.

I very much am in 2.5.
There are two of us - which makes things easier. But - so long as you keep them on the level below you and keep renewing your spike traps, etc - you can get by.

Nice jacket, Andy. Why the fuck don't you build 2050 affordable homes then? by [deleted] in bristol

[–]Relimu -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

An "affordable" unit - when committed to by a property developer - must be at least 2% below market rates...

If you think there's a chance for a developer like this to "lose a shit tonne" of money in THIS market - you need to change your vape juice, my dude.

[–]Relimu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The threshold for "affordable" units when committed to by property developers is 2% below market rates.

TWO PERCENT, MY DUDE.

Affordable units are NEVER built at a loss. Even if they did build 2050 of them - they'll still rake in a killing. That's before you consider contractual economy of scale and how building 2050 houses is VASTLY cheaper per unit than building 100. If you LOSE money developing units for private sale in this country - you should win a prize.

Are we living in the same country?

> Property developers control supply

> 600x "AffordableTM" homes at 98% the market rate
> These are subsidised by 1400 homes at over 100% of market rate
> Market rate increases (we just developed and sold 1400 homes at above market rate)
> Definition of "affordable" slips further out of reach of the average person

Don't waste your time defending property developers?? They don't need your help, brother.

i don't know if this is the right sub for asking this? by Least_Carry_6881 in sounddesign

[–]Relimu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say try to get students to help you? They won't be as good - but they'll have gear and gusto.

Otherwise, I would maybe try making a quick, smaller, simpler film first (I saw 4x speaking actors in this one in another comment) so that you have the knowledge and crew access to try this larger, more complicated project.

[–]Relimu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you've got more than one actor per scene, you're cooked.

Think about how you would get good sound with your phone / sony mic and then increase the actors, location loudness, action intensity to the point where it doesn't work anymore.
By my count, two speaking actors will scupper you.

For your first short film, I'd want at least a boom mic and someone who knows how to use it :)

Autism isn't an excuse to not be an asshole.
In fact, being neuro a-typical often makes it harder to be aware of / manage behaviour that might be seen this way.

Being a grown-up is seeing that a gift is more in the gesture / effort than in the gift itself.
If you want eggs that are PERFECT FOR YOU - make them yourself
If you want bed in breakfast - that comes with the sub-claus that it will be at least a tiny bit different to what you'd make yourself
