- Comment on Tiddies are nice but the metric system is better 1 day ago:
I’m not 100% sure on the accuracy of this data, but is ever there was a place to paste this information, it is here.
Average Tiddy weight per boob by cup size, in Metric and Lemmy scales
A cup = 0.454kg = 1.1 Tins of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
B cup = 0.78kg =1.9 Tins of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
C cup = 1.023kg = 2.4 Tins of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
D cup = 1.388kg = 3.3 Tins of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
E cup = 1.950kg = 4.6 Tins of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
F cup = 2.35kg = 5.6 Tins of Heinz Baked Beans in Tomato Sauce
- Comment on NHS bodies in England impose two-year minimum wait for ADHD and autism assessments 4 days ago:
On the plus side - on this specific occasion, if you’re underslept and therefore more confused, stressed and easily distracted etc, it will at least work in your favour for the assessment.
I hope it goes well for you!
- Comment on NHS bodies in England impose two-year minimum wait for ADHD and autism assessments 6 days ago:
Ah, got you. Sorry, I misunderstood. But yeah, I’m sure they’re not all like that (I’d imagine most are actually very good). Anyway, I genuinely hope yours goes well. It sounds like you’ve had an awful time of it so far.
- Comment on Andy Burnham announces new homes scheme for first-time buyers 1 week ago:
That’s still likely average across the North - I mean, you can still get 2-bed terraces £50,000 - £100,000 in some areas.
I don’t know what anyone south of the M62 is meant to do though.
- Comment on NHS bodies in England impose two-year minimum wait for ADHD and autism assessments 1 week ago:
Oh, I fully believe it - and I don’t think they should bin off people already on the waiting lists. My objection is towards the NHS paying a few grand to a private company for each assessment, even if it’s shit, as opposed to being properly funded to do it themselves. You have my sympathies.

Always remember that the Metro is owned and run by the far-right Daily Mail group.
- Comment on NHS bodies in England impose two-year minimum wait for ADHD and autism assessments 1 week ago:
That’s really useful, thanks - and actually makes a lot more sense of the article. Thanks for looking that up and explaining it clearly :)
Now understanding a bit more, I’m not too angry about it. Some of these private assessors are doing a half-arsed job, then charging the NHS a fortune for it, then leaving the NHS to deal with their shoddy half-done assessments.
- Comment on NHS bodies in England impose two-year minimum wait for ADHD and autism assessments 1 week ago:
I don’t quite understand how a “minimum wait” makes any sense. I understand a “likely waiting list time”, such as “we process this many per day, and there are this many on the list, therefore it’ll take about three years for anyone newly applying to be seen”.
They process a certain amount per day, so after two years, you’re either at the front of the queue or you’re not. Unless they catch up with the waiting list and then say “we’re not doing any assessments for three months, because we have a minimum wait time”.

Yeah, but they spell it “scronge”.
- Comment on Lib Dems reject ‘discriminatory and unworkable’ EHRC guidance on transgender people 1 week ago:
It doesn’t address their important issues like “doing what Israel says”.
Is there any way to use former Eurovision winner Dana International, who is both Israeli and trans?
“Not fixing this miswritten legislation offends Israeli former Eurovision winner Dana International which means not fixing it is antisemitic and therefore must be top priority for the current ‘Labour’ party”
- Comment on Only 25 per cent of children walk to school alone compared to 86 per cent in 1971. What went wrong? 1 week ago:
I think you’re more likely to have your phone nicked in Barcelona. Anyway, yeah, phones being nicked in London may be true, but there’s huge swathes of the UK that aren’t London - entire counties with not even a shred of London in them.
Walking to school is safer and less polluted than it was 30 or 40 years ago. When I went, being driven to or from school was reserved for a couple of posh kids and a couple of kids who lived too far “in the sticks”. The school itself ran buses to the nearby towns that had kids at the school. Pretty much everyone in the same town as the school walked or got a local bus.

You do realise you can easily run them on a normal computer? “Dolphin”, the emulator, will run fine on really old or low-spec hardware (like 10-15 year old bog-standard laptop).

'Sir Jim said the politics of envy was driving people away from the UK.
“In America they applaud people who create wealth,” he said. “Unfortunately the UK has got a bit of a green eye towards wealth at the moment.”’
What a stupid fucking bastard. He genuinely thinks we’re all jealous of his immoral wealth hoarding, and believes he is a “wealth creator”.
I don’t want £1,000,000,000 pounds in my bank account, mate. I want everyone on my street to have £30,000 in theirs.

“We used to have the village noticeboard, but as things have changed we no longer have that local connection”
Can we just have that back instead? We could literally communicate about our own neighbourhood, within our own neighbourhood. We don’t need to include an American surveillance company.

Well, ideally that would fuck off as well as this new one :)
- Comment on Digital ID comes of age as pubs and bars get go-ahead for biometric scan tech 2 weeks ago:
I don’t think I’ve ever known of anywhere scanning an ID in any way - generally it’s just shown to the person behind the bar for 2 seconds (I’m not denying that some weird computerised thing exists somewhere- just that I’ve never seen such a thing). Nowhere should be scanning or storing anything.

Avoid the inconvenience of a small piece of paper by simply using this "Unified Surveillance Device’.

- Comment on Female asylum seekers report being sexually assaulted by British men 3 weeks ago:
Much of their “protest” is projection, based on their own behaviour - so when they say “the foreigners are raping all our women and children” they are saying “that’s what I would/ already do”

I’m not quite sure what the fuss is about with this one - I thought it was quite a clever joke, and I don’t really think there’s anything distasteful about it. Still, the game is of no interest to me whatsoever.
