She says that in the final years of the Soviet Union the Communist government gunned people down in the streets. I would be curious to learn more except I can't find anything about it, besides [this](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacification_of_Wujek) event. It is a bit sad that communism is now demonised for these people considering the scale of violence committed globally by capitalist regimes. I don't really know what I'm trying to ask but there is a question there somewhere.

Not as though I do any other kind but it still fucking sucks, play by play, this is what happened: I spent a good hour curating my basket and got ready to check out. I had the option to check out as guest or log in to my existing account. I got a bad feeling about this site in case I lost my entire basket, this has happened often enough that it's something I now feel nervous about, but it will probably make returns easier, better log in to be on the safe side. That's weird. Seems I already have an account, but no password to be found. No matter, I go to reset it. They send a reset email, I follow the instructions, reset my password, and it asks me to log in again. Alarm bells start ringing. I ignore them. I click log in. Session expired. All my shit is gone. I fucking knew this would happen. I furiously cmd + shift + T and add all my stuff back, but I only have half the items, seems I hit the tab history limit. Fucking killl meeeeeeeeeeee. Then I spend another half an hour pain stakingly scrolling through my history and re-adding each item one by one until finally I'm done, ready to check out again. So I go to checkout. I see the option to register for a premium account and get free next day shipping and unlimited free returns. Interesting. I figured I was intending to return a lot of this stuff anyway, and I need it soon, so for a few extra quid why not. As soon as I added premium to my basket and went to pay, it asks me to login again. Jesus Christ not this again. I quickly open up all of my shit in other tabs, just in case, but it doesn't happen. Actually what happens is all the shit I added originally is instantaneously retrieved from the ether, and now I have double of everything. That's not the worst that could have happened, at least, but I wish I could get that half hour of my life back. Then I see the option to pay later by Klarna. Nice. As I said, probably going to return a lot of this stuff, so may as well buy now, return what I don't want and pay the balance. Klarna opens a new window, and nothing loads. Fine. I'll pay by card. Let me try the Amex. Payment declined. Bullshit, I watched you, you didn't even try to take the payment. But whatever. I'll try again with another card. Payment declined. Fuck you, I know you didn't even try. I know I have money. Probably my shitty furry browser being shit again, so instead I open Chrome and go through all this again. I log in, go to checkout, figure I'll try Klarna again, and damn. Klarna is registered to my old phone. They want me to take a photo of my face and upload my driving license to reset it. I don't know how long that's going to take. I can't be fucked. It's 11.30pm now and I look like complete shit. Let's try my cards again. Payment declined. Try the other one, same thing. Shit. Guess it's Klarna then. I go through all the 2fa again, take a photo of my driving license, take a photo of myself looking like Ted Kasckinski and wait, and thankfully the whole thing clears in like 2 minutes. God damn though, this shit took me over an hour. Anyway thanks for coming to my TED talk.

This is plasterboard or something with a void about an inch back This is the wall plug  The hole here is actually so big that the wall plug would fall through into the void if I put it back I can't move the radiator up or down or left or right because it is fixed and even if I knew how to disconnect it I wouldn't want to spill black water everywhere and ruin the carpet, so I am thinking I should use the same holes but get a bigger plug What about the plastic ones for plasterboard that sort of butterfly out when you fix them in?

You can imagine her disappointment when she learned that it contained none of the music from the game, and only sound effects like the low humming of the police siren My experience was marginally better, as I did not realise my music was not downloading until I got on the plane, and sadly only managed to download Michael Cera's cover of Clay Pigeons by the time we got in the air After several hours of listening to this on repeat I still do not know all of the words, but I now know more than I do of any other song besides Afroman's Colt 45

I have built a container for my cat litter tray in the hallway to keep it out of sight and out of mind and it is looking pretty good, but wondering about the long term viability in terms of build up of cat piss. The litter tray itself is a massive stainless steel one with tall sides so not super worried, but wondering is there anything at all I can do for a bit more peace of mind?

As a kid / early teenager at night I remember lying awake at night and feeling my whole body screech at me. It's indescribable, almost. As an adult, I have only felt this way again twice. Once in Egypt when I caught some kind of flu, it felt like electrodes running through my body. Come to think of it, it feels a lot like holding onto an electric fence. The other time was after a megadose of LSD, my body screeching, the world crashing againt me in waves, dipping in and out for hours, and there was that pain again. Besides the pain, I could only think these words to try to understand how I was feeling: plastic, elastic, spastic. I think elastic because it was like my nerves were being stretched out and allowed to smack back into place, although now I type it out here I realise that is just drug induced psychosis. Anyway, the feeling at the time was that this sensation of being pulled apart was insanely familiar, like it had at one point been with me every night of my life. I would like in bed and fidget about and stretch myself out and try to find any position at all that didn't hurt. Wondering if just me or everyone else as well?

Although since they refuse to die, you could consider it a hydroponic garden Yes, it is rainy and cold and cloudy, and yes I built it at the bottom of a hill, but I had been here for 6 months and never had any issues with flooding, and this is despite the emergence of several large lakes nearby which did not exist in summer Then Spring rolls around, I get a few days of boiling hot sunshine, I do the garden, and the moment I finish, we get the most consistently wet weather so far Initially I realised my mistake was that, idiot that I am, I packed in several large rocks, thinking that because they do not absorb water, they will increase drainage - WRONG! they provide an impenetrable barrier through which no water can pass After a month of this, I was able to dig up the herb garden with much effort and take the rocks out, and the pool immediately began to empty. I topped it up with more soil and perlite after that, but consistently bad weather means it keeps on flooding - Rosemary, Lavender and Thyme are all holding up, but the Cat Mint is fully submerged If the sun ever comes out again, I think I will just build a planter

Of course if they are poor quality, old, or already stained, then that is fine, I will literally never get a mark on them, and if I do, it will wash off easily. If I buy a brand new shirt though, I will undoubtedly ruin it the very same day, even if I haven't yet worn it. This happens every single time. Yesterday I pulled a basically brand new shirt out of my cupboard, saw it was marked, and set it aside to clean later. I don't remember getting it dirty, but it looked like sand / rust / dirt from my recent trip to B&Q. I sprayed it with oxygen bleach, which did absolutely nothing as usual, despite assurances from TikTok that oxygen bleach is the best, and super powerful, so instead I scrubbed it with soap, but it was stubborn and I didn't make any progress at all. Half a bottle of white vinegar and several tablespoons of baking soda later, I was able to get the stain out by scraping the fabric roughly with my fingernails. Great. Then I put it in the washing machine to wash off. I took it out just now, and it has another gigantic stain on it, on the back somehow? Who is doing this to me? Myself? I hate that guy!

I support Left media because of course I do, I'm not going to get my news after it has been heavily censored by the bourgoisie, but there isn't an issue of The Communist (the newspaper of the IMT in Britain formerly known as Socialist Appeal) which gets printed that doesn't dedicate some part to attacking The Morning Star (the newspaper of the CPB), The Communist Party of Britain, or Stalin, and usually they work something in there about modern China too. The most recent beef between the IMT and the CPB as far as I have been paying attention springs from [this article ](https://communist.red/will-the-real-lenin-please-stand-up-a-reply-to-the-morning-star/) published by The Communist in response to a series of articles on Lenin published by The Morning Star: >Despite its name, this party [The Communist Party of Britain] has long ago become a reformist organisation, little different from the trade union and Labour ‘lefts’ While probably a bit true this is also funny, since before changing their name to The Communist and announcing the launch of the new Revolutionary Communist Party, Socialist Appeal had been a force dedicated to entry-ism within the Labour party, that is before it was finally ruled in July 2021 that anyone associated with Socialist Appeal would automatically be expelled from the Labour party. Prior to this, Socialist Appeal had been *very* clear that they had no other aspirations besides pulling the Labour party left, and actually their entire existence can traced back to a previous round of left purges within the Labour party prior even to Blair, when in 1991 the left group Militant abandoned Labour to form their own party (later known as the Socialist party, they made impressive gains as part of the Trade Union and Socialist Coalition in 2015 before throwing their support behind Corbyn a few years later). Those who remained within the Labour party went on to become Socialist Appeal, and it is just funny to me how things have come full circle since then. Those within the Socialist party must be feeling quite vindicated by now. Then in the latest issue of The Communist, there is this article: **FROM OPPORTUNISM TO ULTRA-LEFTISM: THE CRIMINAL ZIG-ZAGS OF THE STALINISTS** >The launch of The Communist and the planned launch of the Revolutionary Communist Party in May has met with great enthusiasm from our supporters. >However, as we reported in the last issue, the misnamed Communist Party of Britain (CPB) has clearly been stung by our successes, and attacked us as coming from an “anti-communist” tradition. >On the contrary, we have consistently defended genuine communism. But in doing so we reject the tradition of Stalinism, which has played, and still plays, a criminal role. It is good to see left newspapers fighting eachother over disagreements which occurred over 100 years ago. If only there was some way we could use the benefit of hindsight to evaluate who was right and who was wrong, what worked and what didn't, what needs to be done differently next time, but sadly there is a huge overlap between people willing and able to write lengthy articles in fringe newspapers and people who are actually just huge dorks, heavily invested in squabbling over petty minutaee and championing their favourite heroes, like they are comic book characters. What does it matter if Trotsky is right about permanent revolution, if no Trot organisation has ever accomplished anything in 100 years? Was Stalin wrong to withdraw support from the international community and order others to lay down their arms and co-operate with the bourgeoisie? For sure, the USSR was villified for supporting them anyway. Was Stalin wrong for cracking down on security within the USSR? I don't know, have you seen what happens to fledgling communist states when they do not? I really don't know enough to be able to comment on everything, and I don't see the need to, either. Just the *removed*iness from these orgs is such a turn-off, stop fighting and kiss eachother. Oh no, Special Branch wouldn't like that.

Obviously just exagerating, but it was not was I was expecting. I had spent a few months in Turkey earlier in the year and been really disappointed to learn that the British do it better for once, so I was excited to get home and try it again. I moved to Scotland shotly after I came back, and I figured it would be just the same. It is not. First of all, the pros: In Scotland you have the option to get a munch box, which contains doner meat, a variety of pakore, and the legendary pink sauce. This shit is good, and the portions are abundant, to say the least. Later though when I wanted to get a regular doner kebab, the salad was not on point, and the sauce, first of all they didn't even have garlic sauce as an option, and when I learned that the chilli sauce was sweet instead of tangy, oof. Not good. While I have continued to adore Scottish cuisine for being exactly the kind of food I imagine stuffing my face with when I am drunk or high, my rose tinted glasses were broken. If they can commit such a cardinal sin as this, what else can they do? A doner kebab pie. I saw one today in the co-op and immediately had to try it. This is the most delicious thing I have ever eaten in my entire life, and the sweet chilli sauce made it taste vaguely Chinese, like char sui? God damn, I could eat these all day. I had an Irn Bru energy drink to go with it.

Every time I log in I get the exact same recommendations. Literally the exact same ones, every single time, for months at a time, so I can't just refresh the page like I would on TikTok and get all new videos to watch. Plus, the recommendations are so bad, I may as well be scrolling Facebook. They are bad, and there is a huge recency bias. I watch one new thing, and suddenly almost my entire feed is made up of more of the same, and usually it isn't even *similar* videos, it is the *same* videos on the same exact topic. I feel like I have such a diverse range of interests, and so many channels that I follow, but I can go years without these channels coming up again. I feel like the fix would be so easy as well. Option 1, go back to how it was before, and option 2, show me things that *other* people are watching. If someone watched the same video as me, the video they watch afterwards is probably going to be of interest to me. That's the background, my question is has anyone else been able to make their YouTube recommendations not shit? Is there another website that mirrors YouTube but has good recommendations? and also, does anyone have any theories as to *why* YouTube recommendations are so horrendous? There must be a reason, it doesn't make any sense.
