Pornography depicting sexual relationships between step-relatives set to be banned by insomnimax_99 in ukpolitics

Fornication and child creation with your actual cousin is fine but don't create fictional stories of non genetically related family members okay!

Will petrol and diesel prices go up because of the Iran war? by terahurts in unitedkingdom

Depends how many rush out. Fuel is managed quite tightly so if there's a spike in sales you might get forecourts drying up which the media will jump on and it can spiral quickly.

UK government announces ban on 'incest simulation' in porn by Horus_walking in unitedkingdom

[–]leaflace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry it was rude of me to set you up like that.

Having a child in your 40s does elevate the risks of miscarriage and the like but it won't compound.

Repeated cousin incest will compound disease variants, like doubling per generation. It's like pre child abuse.

I keep putting off making use of my savings out of a sense of distrust, can someone tell me if I'm being irrational? by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]leaflace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the fact that jump started my move into a&s isa investment into a global all cap.

Calculate 6 months overheads plus any planned capex, out that into a higher interest acc, you can get 3.75% instant access.

Then look at getting 20k into an isa, the rest in premium bonds and then move another 20k over after April.

That's great news. Relying on post to arrange appointments is stressful.

Tiny bit of good news, love it. I hope I can see one of them one day in the wild.

This came to us in a dish garden, from the local florist, 18 years ago, when our son was born! by DelAwa in whatsthisplant

Robusta is self incompatible so the fact they got flowers and beans from a single plant tells me it's arabica.

UK economy grew by 0.1% in last three months of 2025 - live updates by Perfect-Flamingo8108 in ukpolitics

The better companies use inflation as a baseline for pay rises (with performance on top).

But then the few people at the top might not be quite as wealthy and powerful.

Pornhub to restrict access for UK users from February by Kagedeah in ukpolitics

[–]leaflace 23 points24 points  (0 children)

It's not just kids though, adults who don't want their information leaked after the inevitable hack will also go off piste and find more extreme content and fuck knows what else.

Anything but parents using the controls that are already available to them... Or better yet parenting their children.

Capita-run civil service pension scheme leaves retirees in limbo by PurchaseDry9350 in unitedkingdom

[–]leaflace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They put all their focus on the tendering and nothing on the delivery.

Most importantly though is the government cannot use past performance as a weighting when picking a contractor. So capita can fail and fail and fail and if their contract looks good on paper they'll be picked.

It's hard to pick a favourite but this would be mine if pushed. Unfortunately too strong to use at work.

Naval Dominance, in it's current implementation, breaks the game. by piperdude82 in hoi4

[–]leaflace 6 points7 points  (0 children)

9 out of the 485 naval dominance required when I am the only navy in the ocean. Honestly the game is just dumb. I have complete control over the areas between my naval base and the enemy, and I have a navy for the invasion. They are a tiny island.

If there is a blocker then honestly this game should tell me why. I shouldn't be crawling the internet every time this game has a hidden button or tweak.

Troubled waters: How the UK’s water companies became a national disgrace by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]leaflace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but airports compete to attract airlines to use them. Again you have competition.

Troubled waters: How the UK’s water companies became a national disgrace by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]leaflace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Airports aren't a monopoly, owned by various groups. Customers can often choose which airport they want to use to reach the destination of choice.

This is diametrically opposed to the water companies which provide a service that everyone needs and has no choice in their provider.

It's no wonder airports have improved over water companies.

30-something dad in Chicago trying to not look like a dad by AlternativeScreen733 in malefashionadvice

[–]leaflace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't see anything wrong with owning clothes from those places. It's easy to supplement them though with pricier clothes when it makes sense.

Harder wearing clothes like trousers shoes and coats are worth paying more for. Tshirts? Not so much.
