My point was that they can work, some of them have under the table jobs to begin with and they are abusing the system. Ss will occasionally audit and ask for random bank statements anyway. Not my business but it is the government’s if the money comes from them (technically we who work and pay into it anyway). They don’t give the money to pay for weed they give it to support you-- barely.

But how is access to medical and mental health treatment and options for it? Is there a ton of variety?

Seems about equal to Social security disability but, SS is worse because they don’t really tailor your payments to your housing expenses and needs. If they did, the government might even save money. I know people around me that just use most of their check for weed. If it was guaranteed to only cover your bills with a smaller spending allowance and they asked for monthly bank records to prove you were using government money wisely, there would be less freeloaders and more reserve for those who retire and have paid into it. More people who proved they could work, or who abused the system would be called out and forced to work, and those with true disabilities could stay on it.

Does UK have any social security disability or retirement other than what is relied upon by an employer? Just wondering.

So, no one in those countries became homeless and bankrupt because of an illness and lost their job? I am asking genuinely because I wouldn’t know.

I had to switch from Jerboa to Boost for Lemmy due to the bug in comment threads: when you click on a reply in your inbox, it goes to the post and gives you two options to either view post or view context so you can see up until the parent thread of the conversation you are replying to, and the buttons don’t seem to work consistently. Also sometimes they are not even there and you have to scroll through the post for the comment you want to reply to. Boost has ads though but IDC about those.

I’ve tried Thunder, used Jerboa for a bit and now I am on Boost for Lemmy.

Boxing, UFC, hockey and other contact sports where it doesn’t cause a penalty.

Key and Peele was a great show!

Looks fire!

It was funny. I only watched the first season, I don’t have Max anymore.

Yea I wondered that after I posted my comment but I wondered if it was a joke issue or something. A lot of the issues I had growing up had a front cover and a back one that would work if you flipped it the right way that was an alternative or a joke cover.

Man, I haven’t had a MAD subscription in ages. I didn’t realize they were still in print. Lol

It’s never satisfying to eat only two or three unless I am putting on a bagel or toast. That’s why I always eat six. Three or four slices of white cheddar or pepper jack, jalapenos, black pepper, a bit of milk, chopped onions, fresh baby spinach. Roll it up.

Or a Jerboa

Damn put spoiler text on this lol. Led me on like a gullible mf.

Well, good thing you didn’t follow up with it was a typo. Lol. It still happens today with my wife, no T9 nowadays but fkn autocorrect, mannn…I figured out that there is a setting to change how aggressive the autocorrect is without completely turning it off.

Well if you fail, you always learn something.

I’m also lactose intolerant. It used to be bad but now I can tolerate it.

I find it hard to mess an omelette up after the first few you make in life. Of course I load mine with more cheese and usually make it with six eggs and veggies so it’s just like a big thick pancake. All I have to do is slip the spatula under and fold over lol.
