They broke into a property near mine, used their roof to climb up and break into mine via my balcony. Did the same to my neighbour.

I was asleep in the next room, and I'm not on the ground floor, so a literal cat burglar in 2025?

Absolutely no way. It's 0 degrees!!!

Ah, sorry, that is really tough.

I'm sure there are more bodybuilding "mass gainers" out there but as an endurance runner my immediate thought are foods I eat while struggling with digestion. These sorts of powders are designed such that you can constantly sip them over long periods (I recently ran 15 hours just drinking Tailwind.)

That sounds really rough. I assume you've tried liquid calories, can I suggest powdered running fuel? (Tailwind, or Precision Hydration, both are good) A lot of these powders are designed to be easy on your stomach, as runners consume them while also stressing their kidneys with running.

Having a bunch of volunteers who refer to charities as "beggars," who feel entitled to their position, and don't care about damaging the actual cause? That sounds like a failure to me. Why do you volunteer if you're so bitter about it?

The goal isn't to appeal to people who want to half arse the job? Expecting high standards, focusing on outcomes, that's how you find people who actually want to make a difference. I don't care about appealing to volunteers who only want to feel good about themselves.
November 15, 2025 at 1:36 PM
Yes they can and should. Obviously.

This person has actively stated they will only give "free labour energy" and you think it's the managers fault? Please.

What are you talking about? If you actually did any volunteering you would know that spots are often limited. If someone is doing a bad job, they should be replaced? Especially if they're actively reducing donations. If you're hurting a charity, you don't just get to keep a volunteering role?
November 15, 2025 at 1:24 PM
Why are you there if you're not trying to do a good job? What is the point of volunteering if you're just going to half arse it?

Money would circulate more, so higher demand all around, making entrepreneurial opportunities less risky. You'd get a wider range of better products. Way less wealth disparity. Individual wealth levels would be limited to what you can do in one lifetime. It's still a capitalist system, just better!

A properly efficient capital system, whereby all capital has to be used to generate growth or be eaten away by taxes. All wealth is spent within someone's lifetime. We'd have huge state resources to ensure everyone has a minimal livelihood. More private investment resulting in more innovation.
