The problem is the boomers still own all the money. Since they’re paying, they just wouldn’t pay to go to a nasty place.

I’d vote for that.

PIP in the UK is claimed by a lot of millionaires. Ex Prime Minister, David Cameron, a millionaire, claimed it for his disabled son. Yet the same rich people who claim this, complain about too many poor people claiming it, saying the UK can’t afford to give it to so many poor people. The maximum rate of PIP for the most severely disabled people is just £749 a month, so its a lifeline for genuinely poor people that they can barely scrape by on, yet these millionaires who claim it just put it in their savings account or whatever while complaining that the government should cut down on all the poors accessing it.

So really I think PIP should be means tested.

Personal independence payment, a disability benefit. Non means tested, so rich people can claim it too. So basically this red faced bloke wants poor people who actually need it prevented from getting it, while he who probably has an income and doesn’t really need it, still wants to get it.

As a living being your purpose should be reach immortality with full capabilities (end/reverse aging).

That sounds awful. I would choose the total opposite, death and non existence as soon as possible.

I actually once did answer back to a group of teenage boys, and got beaten around the head with a lead pipe, so no, I won’t confront anyone again.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I got mistaken for a man a couple of days ago, not the first time it’s happened. Really humiliating, in fact it’s humiliating going out just knowing I look like absolute crap but what’s the alternative? Being shut in all day destroys the mind.

I sleep with earplugs, I recommend it.

This is the one good thing about not having a social life any more. Buying gifts when you can barely feed yourself is a real struggle and many people aren’t understanding about it at all. Maybe do something for them instead, like if you have a little money maybe buy the ingredients and make them a nice meal. If you have no money at all, just make and write them a card explaining how much you care about them and how you’d like to buy them something but just can’t right now?

My landlady’s dog loves used sanitary towels and pantliners. Have to put them in bins he can’t get to.

Yes, I do mean an obscene amount of money. Half million nowadays would jut about buy a nice house and some left over to live off.

If they get really rich by luck and keep it all though, I still think they’re bad. If I won the lottery or something I would just keep enough to guarantee a decent roof over my head and all bills paid for life, and give the rest away.

I really do recommend watching it. Actually this and “Everything everywhere all at once” were both on amazon for free, and I thought I would love EE, and I thought PHM would be a bit “meh,” but actually I hated EE so much I couldn’t even finish it (it seemed to be just non stop fight scenes which I find extremely boring) and I loved PHM so much I can’t stop thinking about it.

I really want to read it but I feel like I just don’t have the concentration or cognitive ability to read a book any more.

I think humans have always been like this. Thousands of years ago the upper class Romans, etc were famous for their excess. It’s just this is the first time in history that the masses can also overconsume, combined with the fact that we now have non perishable items like plastic polluting the planet, that makes it all so much worse.

He probably thinks they should write a long, grovelling essay.

Yes! This is exactly what I am smelling too. So it is real.

Well, some of us are at the mercy of the devils.
