  • I'm sure the weather is somewhat of a factor. But if I had to make an educated guess, I'd say there's probably more socio-economic than natural factors. by Shevek67 (Sun 15th May 2022 9:35am)
  • It drowns out the voice of existential angst in the head. Also, you can say all the dark shit that you think and no one can hear you, so they can't judge you. "Sometimes I think about sticking my leg out in front of a car on my way to work..." "Eh?!" "I'm thinking about getting a car for work..." by Shevek67 (Sun 3rd Jul 2022 7:47pm)
  • Yeah, see I always wanted a "quick fix" for social anxiety etc., but I've always been wary of alcohol, coke etc., as a coping mechanism. Don't drink, don't touch anything else really, and still live a marginalised existence, looking in on a world I canny really participate in. Preferable to having a habit, though. by Shevek67 (Mon 4th Jul 2022 2:51pm)
  • Cheers for the responses. Seems Unison and GMB are the most suitable. Hopefully there's a Mick Lynch and Eddie Dempsey in the ranks :p by Shevek67 (Sun 31st Jul 2022 1:31pm)
  • Are there any universal (or close to universal) factors that are found in cities that have achieved what you're suggesting? by Shevek67 (Mon 1st Aug 2022 5:29pm)
  • Yep. I'm a zero hours care worker. Had to go into work knowing the person I supported had covid, and that when I inevitably got it, I faced a week or more without getting any hours. Precarity is fun. by Shevek67 (Wed 3rd Aug 2022 3:19pm)
  • Avoiding the four corners is good life advice. by Shevek67 (Thu 4th Aug 2022 10:54pm)
  • I'm interested in such things. But I'd be of very little use. I haven't studied them or anything. But I think this might be of use: https://www.penscotland.com/#:~:text=Popular%20Education%20Network%20Scotland%20(PEN,to%20activists%20within%20their%20communities. by Shevek67 (Thu 11th Aug 2022 8:18am)
  • I'm happy to learn about new ideas. I'm fairly busy myself, but if you're open to exchanging emails and replying as and when you have a bit of time, I'm happy to do so. by Shevek67 (Thu 11th Aug 2022 9:59am)
  • Woah. I assume this wasn't intended as a reply to my comment? by Shevek67 (Thu 11th Aug 2022 10:21am)
  • No problem. by Shevek67 (Thu 11th Aug 2022 10:37am)
  • It's not really "just an opinion", it's a harmful stereotype. by Shevek67 (Sat 13th Aug 2022 11:23am)
  • Yes. Those who don't are the real trash. by Shevek67 (Tue 23rd Aug 2022 7:53pm)
