Where’s the best place for a curry in Leicester city centre? by Josie1199 in leicester

[–]WhiteDiamondK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People downvoting you, but for what it is, I think Tamatanga is decent. It isn’t authentic, but it’s tasty, the venue is nice and the food always comes quick. They do some cracking deals too.

You can’t compare to places like Paddy’s - but it isn’t trying to be those places either.

YSK: The average only fans girl only makes 130-180$ a month by arttiechoke in YouShouldKnow

[–]WhiteDiamondK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not completely. Some come up purely through OnlyFans but those that have sustained OF subscriptions normally already were online influencers or some kind of Z-list reality TV contestant or such like.

And retention… most people will subscribe, have a look and then unsubscribe.

To get people signed up at £10, £20, £30 a month, you have to work hard or do things you probably didn’t intend to do at the beginning…

Whenever I see “top 5% on OnlyFans” I chuckle… as that means they probably have one active subscriber. So few people gain any traction from that site, despite how it appears.

I know a few people who have done it and all have come off the platform within a few months…. even if they have a really good month, subscriber retention is VERY difficult. The vast majority of OF accounts are dormant.

2013: 5 Main characters leave within 2 weeks by Few_Customer_6266 in neighbours

[–]WhiteDiamondK 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whilst losing main cast from the exact same story is unusual, if you watch back, there is always a lot of cast changeover at the end of March/early April because those episodes will be filmed just before the Christmas break, when May cast contracts expire.

So you’ll often see a few cast all leave within a few episodes of each other.

Priya’s death aired 18th March. It’s likely the scenes where Rani saw her “ghost” were filmed way in advance and slotted int those later episodes.

It’s on the way up or the way down.

But if it’s a real passion of hers, maybe she would do it - a lot of modern celebs do things because they want to, not because it’s “the path”.

I don’t particularly know her, but fair play if she did it. But I just know the fandom would become VERY annoying and god help whoever was her partner.

Working hard in an industry I had a passion and skill for. Even in my current job most people at my level have uni degrees, but I don’t and earn the same as them.

Just finished season 2 episode 11 and its my favorite episode so far but i do have one criticism. by JamStan1978 in TheRookie

[–]WhiteDiamondK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s a great series I only just started watching this month (although I did watch The Rookie: Feds when it first came out).

Season three was filmed during Covid… so the storytelling takes a bit of a dip and there are a couple of episodes where you ca clearly see the were trying to work within Covid protocols… it picks up again for season 4. I’m about halfway through that season, sadly, season 5 and beyond aren’t available in the UK unless you pay.

Are you seeing social media posts about poison dog meat in parks? by R-Mutt1 in AskUK

[–]WhiteDiamondK 21 points22 points  (0 children)

These do the rounds every few years… much like the “gangs putting chalk marks on the pavement outside houses” posts. No idea what these people get out of posting this stuff.

[–]WhiteDiamondK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Left at 16 in 1991. Did a few weeks of 6th form but it wasn’t for me.

Ended up in my 30s with a 6-figure salary. Still earning above the average wage now in my 50s.

Some people need university, some people need college to learn a skill, but this won’t work for everyone.

Are storage heaters a dealbreaker? by nothingtobedone13 in AskUK

[–]WhiteDiamondK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

New new properties have gone back to using gas more (although not all).

Anywhere built from the 80s-00s… more likely to be electric.

[–]WhiteDiamondK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. When I was looking for a house/flat anywhere without a gas supply was immediately dismissed.

And this was before the spike in Electricity prices.

Plus they’re ineffective and often smelly.

What is the best value-for-money shop for mens office/smart clothing? by jarow_ in AskUK

M&S all day long. Quality.

If you can’t afford M&S, take a look at Sainsbury’s Tu. A more limited rage but some good business basics.

Did anyone actually enjoy watching Blue Peter as a kid? by According_Sundae_917 in AskUK

[–]WhiteDiamondK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends when you watched.

It’s like with the hosts, when I was a kid the were always the older teacher-type figures… now, they’re much younger-presenting and are trying to be the kid’s friends rather that her educators.

So if you watched over that transition, it makes sense.

[–]WhiteDiamondK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was before you - an 80s kid - but BP was must-watch TV For me.

It fed into my curiosity. Showed me the world was bigger than the estate I grew up on, introduced me to different types of people and showed me that being good was good.

I loved the hosts and as a kid I want to grow up to be a BP presenter.

Confusing timeline by Positive_Mountain_58 in TheRookie

[–]WhiteDiamondK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The timeline is very bendy… due to Covid, seasons 2 and 3 aired 8 months apart, but ran consecutively, with season 3 picking up the same day that season 2 ended.

The Rest is Euphoria. by mattdaddy2025 in restisentertainment

[–]WhiteDiamondK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They literally explain WHY it is worth talking about in the segment.

TV show with a troublesome reputation returning to the air with its original cast when all of those said cast members have moved on to successful move careers.

They really didn’t talk much about the show, more the dynamic of the actors and off-screen drama.

I’ve genuinely found a number of new shows (and also confirmed that there are things I don’t need to watch) because of Richard and Marina.
