ADs too cool for air con?

[Nihiloxica]

Here's a new thread for discussing aircon, aubergines, and Goth music.

@BarkandCheese

I’m the opposite, I can’t bear the Jeremy Vine show. I find the Ken Bruce show very pleasant and comforting in its familiarity, but the radio goes off straight after. Jeremy Vine makes me feel narky and despairing.

I'm with you.

Onto absolute 80s or similar for a couple of hours and then back fro Steve Wright.

Its occasionally useful but I can't stand listening to people who know believe and are only interested in their own viewpoint

Oh my word, I think I’ve missed about 3 threads! I’ll try and get caught up, hope everyone is well.

The playground news was treated with screams of delight here, and I’ve even agreed to ditch homeschool on the following Monday so we can spend in the day in one. I saw the start of the AIBU thread yesterday and was heartened that the third poster in who called someone “socially irresponsible” was completely ignored in favour of enthusiastic “YES! -es”

I hope it will improve my mood as well as the children’s. I feel permanently angry at the moment, like I have real need to pick fights. Obviously I can’t take it out on my family, and the rational part of my brain knows that although I can do it on here it’s not a constructive outlet or use of my time. Maybe I should do some rage-cleaning. The flat certainly needs it!

The thing that set my off was a headline on my apple news thingy, “My 5 year old wears a mask. Why can’t you?” Fuck off. Ableist twat.

@AnxiousElephant77

Although I do want to make the point that because of the wedding, I'm cognisant of the fact that I do have a very different agenda at play here, and I know how selfish that is.

I don't think it selfish to want to enjoy a long planned and very important to you life event at all.

I don't think anyone knows yet how the virus wll play out this winter - so they are being cautious with predictions.

It is no more selfish than anyone else. Human nature is to be selfish and it’s a survival mechanism in lots of ways. Anyone who had a wedding booked for the end of the year would be stressed. It’s bloody unfair, it should be a happy time, not a stressful one. Be kind to yourself.

Well now you're all going to make me cry!!

Thank you

@Shodan here is my door!

Ooooh GeneGenie it's the same colour as the Pink Panther!

@Cattermole

Ooooh GeneGenie it's the same colour as the Pink Panther!

Ha! That's an excellent description they should have called the colour that!

He was SMOOOOOOOOTH, was the PP.
See threads passim about fancying cartoon characters.

You see, what kind of world do we live in where you have to apologise for looking forward to your wedding as though you're being selfish?!

Fuck that

I actually think we all should have something specific to hope for and look forward to something as it keeps us going.

Re any vaccine, I actually read the government notes on it (I'm sad and bored ) re the priority and it's (rightly) health care workers etc on the "front line" at the front of queue who would receive it first, then the clinically extremely vulnerable. So you can all get in the queue behind those of us who are more likely to sadly die stop shoving at the back!

I actually wondered if the CEV group would be subdivided into higher priority - I would expect (and hope!) children would certainly be prioritised.

As someone said on one of the other threads, having fire extinguishers in a public building doesn’t mean you expect a fire to break out.

Sure, but we're still in "close down the building unless it is 100% safe from going on fire" world.

So talking about second "waves" brings with it excitement about second lockdowns.

Cattermole - the Pink Panther? OMG

He was more ridiculous than sexy.

Mercury off Space Sentinels now...

@OhFuckOffWithTheBubbleBollocks Oooh we need you to keep reading the government notes and reporting back with your findings! I try and read the scientific papers but my brain struggles to compute.

That door is gorgeous.

[quote Shodan]@TrustTheGeneGenie Did you use a brush or rollers? I was going to go for something really bright but in the end settled for a lovely pale turquoise-y kind of thing. I'm sadly quite excited (in a low key way this morning because Gloom ) about my impending DIY project.[/quote]
Gene genie..I think you have tmj..is that correct?
I’ve been thinking of this, especially since my grandson announced yesterday that he has it..and quote them worst cross bite ever seen’
Gutted for him
Surgery can correct it?
No thanks

I’ve got my Anma appointment in July, if anyone can correct this I believe this therapist can
His knowledge is incredible
Apparently all the bones in our skull are meant to move and flex..he went round all of mine..pointing out which they moved..like an oven door etc

So, I’ll ask him about it..I’ve also earmarked a few homeopathic remedies for it but will need to discuss Symptoms with grandson and dowse around it. It’s not like allopathic medicine where one size fits all.they may help, but personally I feel manipulation may help with remedies to help with secondary stuff.

Viral membrane..if your trigeminal nerve gets inflamed, I’ve heard of two remedies from my medical Dowser that I was unaware of
You can probably get them from helios pharmacy Or I can make them
There’s also two Narayani remedies called trigeminal nerve that the narayani people sell.

I’m fb friends with a lovely South African guy who was one of swami narayanis students.
I keep urging him to write the book but he hasn’t time.
Swami narayani was Norma Henson, a South African health practitioner who went to India to learn about homeopathy
On her return she realised, she could help a lot more people if she combined remedies. She would leave them in outlying villages as she would only get round about once twice a year
She trained nurses in how to administer them.

I love stories like this. It’s like my sons old cleft lip and palate plastic surgeon, every year he’d spend one or two weeks in his home country, I think was the Philippines, but may have nbeen India, repairing as many clapa babies, children and adults as time allowed.
Wonderful man and it made so much difference to those peoples lives

I wish I could remember his name...suns got to my head

I want a pink door!

@MrsFrumble, despite the warmth, I just did some rage cleaning. Took me over an hour to vacuum my small 2 bed house. It occurred to me that such were the dust levels, it might be my own house giving me a headache.

It didn't dispel the rage much - in fact it always wants me want to beat Janmes Twatface Dyson about the head with one of his own vacuum cleaners (that STBXH insisted on buying ) - but at least it's less dusty.

@Dowser yep that's the one! You've got me really interested in what you do actually! I'd quite happily try anything so do let me know how you get on with your grandson!

Anyone who is behind me in the queue for the cv vaccine, can have mine.

Can’t see that I’d be eligible for any vaccine (35, no health conditions etc). Hopefully they manage to get one out to those who need it most this side of Christmas!

Gene genie
I just dabble..I’m not trained..but I read and ask questions
My dd is a trained homeopath but can’t practice on account of the home edding

When she was quite in December with poss covid, she mentioned a remedy that Helios had put together...it was a flu based one
I was in Tenerife at the time
She was so ill, I just Rang and ordered it for to go to her house, she could barely get out of bed
Anyway after a couple of Doses, she started to rally..but there was a long recovery time.
You know, up one day, then energy on the floor the next

It’s not everyone’s cup,of tea, I know but I’ve seen astonishing things happen
I got the bulls eye rash, you know the one associated with Lyme disease all over my legs, a couple of dowse of a remedy prescribed by my Gp and it was gone within days. This may have been after a visit to florida and I got bitten, I can’t remember
Long time ago..wish I’d taken more notice of what she’d given me.

What a wasted opportunity

Just ventured onto SM to see people berating anyone who chooses not to wear a mask. I’ve been out in the city and seen the elderly, obese and infirm wearing tatty one-use masks wrongly and unable to afford to replace them at 50p a pop. Some people don’t understand that 50p is a lot of money when you’re on the poverty line so masks are being reused. The masks are also being worn incorrectly, touched, pulled about etc. and in addition, it’s bloody hot out there so the masks are sweaty and damp.

So given a choice of no mask or dirty mask gathering germs in hot weather, which is the choice that is likely to give a better health outcome for those most at risk of ANY infection, not just Covid.

Bit fed up today... our favourite coffee shop has announced that they won’t be reopening as they can’t make a profit even with reduced social distancing (tbf I can believe that with their layout), but then they chucked in some dementory crap about safety... I’m a wee bit fed up about the not opening but can understand their point and support them. But I’m really deflated by the dementoring.

They also say they can’t make a profit doing takeaway so that’s the end of that one.

I would just really like a decent coffee, selfish and trivial as that may be!

I think re the vaccine that it would be healthcare workers and younger vulnerable people but then it would be based on how the vaccine works and it’s efficacy in different age groups as giving it to old people when it doesn’t work as well may not be the most sensible move.

in fact it always wants me want to beat Janmes Twatface Dyson about the head with one of his own vacuum cleaners

I would happily join you. More importantly was the trade off with exh for the vac worse or better?

Oh my god.. things are going to be allowed to open IN SCOTLAND!!!

@TrustTheGeneGenie I love your front door. Our 1930s house currently has an ill fitting "wooden" door with most of the varnish peeled off and massive bubbles in the veneer. It's ugly and let's the rain on and the hallway is fucking freezing, in winter.

This is what is in the two Narayani trigeminal remedies
There isn’t a separate remedy for tmj but some of these symptoms may apply..as usual with homeopathy you treat like with like
