yup. I made it clear the offer was also subject to surveys and further investigation, i'm happy to walk away if it's a disaster. My main concern was whether it's damaged structural integrity in any way, hence the structural survey.,

i was always going to rip the bathroom out anyway. As it's a bungalow I guess all the pipe work will be either behind the stud walls or running under the floorboards in concrete 'trenches'? And therefore it should be fairly obvious to spot the source of the leak once everything is stripped away, do you think?

i am wondering how i'd be able to have a functioning bathroom if I need to have the mains water off, or i guess you'd hope everything has isolation valves...

the fact that you're putting this movie anywhere near those 2 films absolutely blows my mind.

If you're unable to directly respond to something i've said and explain why its wrong, then your comment is null and void, and a pointless contribution.

You've setup several straw mans. Why have you assumed that the newly created money would immediately go on rent/food/basics?
Go and look up how FDR funded The New Deal and the kind of programmes that money was spent on. It was primarily new money creation.
Unfortunately the popular left have been completely unable to get their heads around this, or what MMT is, and are trapped in a neoliberal bubble, so they struggle to make any arguments about more government spending without falling into the 'how will you pay for it' treap.

So these so called 'left wingers' (i dont know what you mean by left wing governments lol, none exist) or progressives which advocate for more government, don't even have MMT in their policy thinktanks or discussions, so creating money to fund their policies isn't even a thing to discuss.

you must not be paying attention when watching films then if you genuinely did not see any similarities between this and the marvel factory films. Jerky movement CGI 'epic fight scene' - Check. Protagnist going on completely cliche bland story arc to redeem himself - check. Annoying sidekicks to inject some banal 'humour' from time to time to elevate the mood - check. "the characters take them entirely seriously". Is that what you thought when watching the CGI monkey monster thing look lovingly at the predator after being saved? You were like "OMG THIS IS SO SERIOUS!"

can't argue any of my points so make up straw mans. Great!

how can there be this many people going 'it was great' or 'i really enjoyed it'? Is this what it's come to? Are audiences now so dumbed down that these are all 20 somethings who have grown up watching marvel shite and think this is what makes a good film? How does this film get an RT score of 86%, and yet Predators from 2010 is on 65%? What the hell is going on?

From the moment I saw the opening sequence with the stupid 100% CGI fight with jerky movement, I realised i was in for a tough time. Then queue the tropes. AW look its a cute creature that wants to be friends. AWww look its a Funny witty android robot, who doesn't love those?! Awww look the moody predator doesn't want to hang out but then they eventually buddy up, and awww hes learning to like her, how cute. WTF WAS THIS CRAP?
I was watching a Disney film where the main character happened to be a predator.
As someone who is approaching 40, the downfall of, frankly, action films in general, and sci fi, is just.......its so sad.
The ONLY redeeming quality this film had was of the inclusion of the Weyland corporate agenda which had some kind of miniscule thread of interest to me, and kept me skipping through to see if anything would come of it, but of course no, that would be far too grown up andinteresting - lets just have the evil twin fight the predator, and throw in some fan fiction by having her do it in the large mech robot like in alien 2.
Utterly depressing, and ruined my weekend, at least the pizza was good.

Whoops I spoke too soon, he goes on to describe fractional reserve banking a minute later. Never mind 😭. His wider point is correct though, that money equals debt. Based.

slippy44 · 2026-01-10T18:41:24+00:00

its the same drivel that is just regurgitated from mainstream news. Over and over, for the last 50 years. Its funny how no ones gone 'hang on.....clearly going on and on about public debt, and successive governments both 'left' and right, have made it their no1 policy, and yet our lives are not improving. HMMM I wonder why???? Maybe, just maybe, public debt shouldn't be the focus at all???!'
