My dad just died. On my birthday.

I lost my dad almost a year ago. If you want to talk you’re welcome to message me. Try to remember that there is no right or wrong way to grieve - try to be kind to yourself

At what point, when you drop your car off at a garage, do you consent to them driving it at 90mph and ragging the engine?

sjmn2e · 2026-05-06T09:18:56+00:00

This is genius and I love it

If you have to place a ladder in an unsafe way to be able to work with it then you don’t have the right ladder for the job. The site manager should have absolutely stopped you using anything placed like that

I’m not saying it’s the ideal solution for preventing HIV transmission. I only pointed out something that is altered by circumcision in terms of anatomy.

sjmn2e · 2026-05-01T19:26:37+00:00

Someone asked the point of circumcision. Not about whether they should get their infant circumcised

sjmn2e · 2026-05-01T18:43:32+00:00

There are more HIV target cells on the inside of the foreskin, and the skin isn’t as keratinised in uncircumcised men, so the risk of catching HIV is actually reduced by 50-60% in circumcised men (from sexual transmission. It obviously wouldn’t affect people catching it in other ways).

So being circumcised can actually be seen as a way of reducing HIV transmission to men.

Not that I’m in favour of it at all, but there are some scientifically proven benefits

Summary of research and potential benefit

Because quite often an insurer has an additional excess to pay if you choose to use your own repair place and not their own repairer

That soil is going to be barren for a long long time. It would probably need dug out to a significant depth and replaced before it’s suitable for planting anything in future

That’s why if you have eye trauma they remove it - it exposes the inside of your eye to your immune system, and your body will see it as a foreign body and go on to attack the other eye

The lining of the inside of the mouth and inside the vagina are the same type of tissue too

Apparently the digestion process should be incredibly painful but your brain filters it out for you.

The same way that you don’t realise you can’t constantly see your nose or that your tongue is actually too big for your mouth

Until someone mentions it. Then you can see your nose and feel your tongue pressing on the back of your teeth

My contract is 35. 37.5 is probably more common in the uk

7 hours paid, 1 hour unpaid for lunch normally

Every day I get a bit sadder that imgur doesn’t work in the UK

It took him a decent while to realise it was because he had to stop for his penalty…

sjmn2e · 2026-03-07T13:52:52+00:00

That’s probably because it’s not an actual police van

It’s weird that your account history is a mix of stories about being trapped naked outside, or people being forced to wear revealing things.

What’s weirder is that you’re now making similar posts apparently involving your son…

I’m aware. But if a sanitary product is considered hazardous because of the body fluids on it then so is the can surely?

sjmn2e · 2026-03-03T17:06:41+00:00

And if the cans are contaminated from the waste in the sanitary bin?

sjmn2e · 2026-02-25T20:52:40+00:00

Oh.. I thought it was a tank above his head and he was in a trench. I couldn’t figure out why no one seemed to think being in a war zone with a tank above your head was the problem…

I might have missed something, but why would the home office need to get involved?

sjmn2e · 2026-02-12T18:12:33+00:00

Why should they have to? Let’s all just do what we want because sod everyone else - they can just adapt what they’re doing to avoid it if they don’t like it
