A geologist and archaeologist by training, a nerd by inclination - books, films, fossils, comics, rocks, games, folklore, and, generally, the rum and uncanny… Let’s have it!

I ran through a few permutations but “cock-up” and “low-ball” just didn’t work.
I have no wish to know about your privy passage, sir!

🤔 Seen this?
Turn one of the two bollocks into a home office and have the other bollock for a bedroom. Just not sure if I’d want to sleep in the top bollock or the bottom bollock, though.
Depends on your bladder. Bottom bollock bedroom gives quick privy access.
Hope this helps:
Apparently, this was a social media trend a while back and people who have tried to clean those kind of ceilings have found them infested with all sorts of insects.
I worry what those black cloths are hiding below it.
Sound proofing foam if you are lucky, cotton wool, toy stuffing, etc if you aren’t.
Edit: and £110k?!

It depends on the severity.
My folks were great and I miss them a lot.
I’m a big fan of the Hong Kong New Wave in cinema. It’s also a handy entrance to wider Chinese films - if you like a director or actor or type of film, there are a lot more to find if you start digging.
Go and see your GP. It wasn’t a heart attack but it was a wake up call and I don’t think jumping to seeing a cardiologist will be that helpful, although a GP can refer you on if they think you need it.
I was in the foothills of heart health problems - high BP, cholesterol creeping up, etc. and the health staff were starting to express concern (suggesting I might need to go on statins). So I turned it around in two years and at my last health check my weight and bloods were all “perfect” according to the nurse. So it is doable.
However, from what you say, mental health issues may be holding you back and making important and sweeping changes to your lifestyle require effort and focus. So the GP may want to get this addressed while starting to monitor your health through regular checks. I found the checks motivating in themselves as the data can really prod you into action because you no longer can say you are probably unhealthy - it is there in stark numbers. I also suspect I was slightly gamifying it as I made beating the numbers a focus and figuring out what I needed to do to adjust each on (as lowering triglyceride levels requires different action to lowering LDL, bad cholesterol). I even made a spreadsheet.
in what I sickeningly term a “man cave”
Would you prefer “mannex”?
@Cris_Color@lemmy.world being nice helps establish the “tone”, but I’m not sure that wouldn’t change with another “API event” on Reddit that results in another, larger mass migration.
The way I see it - the early adopters set the tone of a place and new arrivals are more likely to adopt that approach. So it is important to be kind now, so people will be kind later.
Group hug!

Report it - people jumping straight to insults are trying to shut discussion down which really isn’t acceptable.
Poop and shower? Waffle stomp?
