Should DCRs be legalised in Scotland?

Hi everyone, I am currently completing my master's in Public Policy and was hoping to ask anyone who is Scottish or a resident (lived here for 3+ years) to fill out my 3-question survey on the introduction of Drug Consumption Rooms in Scotland. Currently struggling for numbers so would so appreciate it! No prior knowledge is needed and shouldn't take more than 5 mins. Please feel free to share with friends/family, the more the merrier - Thank you so much!

Confession:

"I'm genuinely happy to see more and more authors pay attention to female LIs. Arina (Theo, W: TC), Alexander (LfOS, LS&E), Langley (VfV), Dmitry (GC) and Vincy (Soulless, HoT). Even if fem LIs aren't too popular, it's still nice to see authors to care about them"

greatest entj / estp difference

The biggest difference between ESTPs and ENTJs lies in their approach to Fe (Extroverted Feeling). ESTPs, with their bold, weak, and valued Fe, tend to push it to its limits, often going too far with jokes or social interactions. This is because their Fe is in the tertiary slot, referred to as the "child" in Beebe's archetype system. This combination leads them to seek attention and validation, whether through compliments or insults. They crave acknowledgment and will engage with almost anyone to get it.

ENTJs, on the other hand, do not use Fe to seek attention. For them, Fe is more about appearing sociable and approachable when necessary. They use it strategically, only in groups or situations where there is something to gain. Their primary concern is not seeking attention but ensuring they are seen as socially competent and in control. ENTJs value Fi (Introverted Feeling) instead, preferring deep, meaningful connections with a select few rather than widespread social engagement. An ENTJ might prioritize loyalty and devotion from a close individual (like an ISFP), while dismissing the need for broader social approval.

while there's no big hype when it comes to differing estj from entp, this should apply directly to them too as entp is fe tertiary like estp and estj is fe role like entj.

idk if anyone has mentioned this yet but….

As I'm swamped with exams, I don't have much time to practice/study languages at the moment BUT I FOUND A LOOPHOLE ☝️

I normally go with my brother to the library to study so I've started teaching him a bit of LSE (Spanish Sing Language) so we can communicate while in the library and don't disturb anyone ✨😌

It's easy stuff like "I'm going to the bathroom" or "I'm too tired" or stuff like that, but it's pretty fun and helps me remember my signs, I don't want to forget the little I know 🫠. My brother is enjoying it too, it's a bit of a break from studying so, we'll keep at it.

[omg-hellgirl]

While Keith merely seemed like “a Teddy Boy who'd spit in his beer to ensure nobody drank it” and had “no plans to work,” and Brian regarded music as an irreplaceable vocation, Mick talked often of becoming a lawyer or perhaps a journalist, as the LSE graduate Bernard Levin had done with spectacular success.

Should Drug Consumption Rooms (DCRs) be Legalised in Scotland?

Socionics Quadras — Delta

Delta, or the ‘fourth’ quadra, includes LSE, EII, IEE, and SLI.

Reinin caracterises this quadra as Judicious, Serious, and Aristocratic.

Dominant elements

The dominant IM elements of the Delta Quadra are Te, Fi, Ne, Si. Grouping together the elements of the Ego blocks of the Delta Quadra types, we get a picture of what aspects of life Delta Quadra types strive to bring to the forefront of life, as well as the kind of group atmosphere and lifestyle they pursue.

Te blocked with Si

Delta types make a point of talking about the rationale behind their actions and emphasizing the productiveness or unproductiveness of different ways of doing things - even in such emotional areas as personal relationships.

Delta types value peaceful, refreshing activities where they are doing something useful and balancing out their inner world at the same time.

Delta types have the philosophy that they will have to rely on their own industriousness to achieve their goals rather than on luck, speculation, group effort, or strong leadership.

Ne blocked with Fi

Delta types love to share personal experience mixed with their own sentiments regarding their experiences, but all in an insightful and non-dramatic manner.

Delta types like to talk about new beginnings, opportunities for personal growth, and their plans and prospects for the future.

Subdued elements

The subdued IM elements of the Delta Quadra are Fe, Ti, Se, Ni. Grouping together the elements of the Super-Ego blocks of the Delta Quadra types, we get a picture of what aspects of life Delta types strive to keep hidden, avoid, not focus attention on, and keep at the periphery of their lives.

Fe blocked with Ni

Delta types rarely display their deep passions and vision, preferring instead to talk in more neutral terms about what they want to do and why.

Delta types reject dramatism and emotional affect in favor of wry humor and understatement.

Delta types don’t tend to form or maintain groups based on fun, emotional interaction, but only take groups seriously that perform some common productive or restful activity.

Delta types generally dislike using poetic wording when describing their inner state, but talk simply about what they feel or their bodily sensations.

Se blocked with Ti

Delta types do not fare well in high-pressure situations where they are being forced to do things, are facing threatening opponents, or are submitted to rigorous discipline, but wear out quickly and look for a more peaceful and welcoming environment.

Group behavior

Groups made up of primarily Delta types tend to be focused on working on projects, enjoying physical recreation, or finding out interesting things about each other. Laughter is usually subdued and brief; instead, people smile a lot and try to be witty and welcoming. Groups need to be focused on some specific productive activity or topic of discussion, or else they fall apart. In Delta groups, there is a lot of splintering and decentralization. This allows for more focused and productive interaction with only those who share your particular interests or sentiments. People jump from small group to small group easily to keep up their interest level. No one demands that the entire group listen to one person or that everyone do the same thing. Delta Quadra types believe that if everyone just pursues their own interests and makes some accommodations for others, the group will be better off anyway. Delta Quadra types do not focusing on building group identity or unity of purpose, but prefer for the group to remain splintered and decentralized.

Romance styles

Delta romantic relationships usually begin simply as the encounter of two individuals interested in a relationship and each other in a particular moment, with very little in terms of outward demonstrations of “romance” in the “wooing” sense of the term or in strong external demonstrations of emotions. Deltas are more focused on the present moment than Gammas, and therefore even relationships of very strong attachment do not lead to constant concerns as to their longer-term practical feasibility. Deltas see as optimal romantic relationships those where partners spend time together on fun activities and sharing ideas of potential practical application. Romantic atmospheres are low-key, based on comfort but practicality.

Perception of other quadras

Alpha

Deltas tend to see Alpha types as fun company and interesting people to discuss ideas and prospects with, but naive and inconsistent in their personal and business relationships. Alpha types seem to lack the common sense to turn their fun and creative energy into something productive and often seem overly idealistic.

Beta

Deltas tend to see Beta types as people who “dream big” and always want to turn things into grandiose endeavors, yet can’t manage day-to-day affairs effectively. Also, Beta types seem unwilling to consider things from the point of view of others, which gives them a streak of meanness and cruelty.

Gamma

Deltas tend to see Gamma types as driven and reliable in personal and business relationships, but not sufficiently understanding of people who want to pursue their own individual path in life. Gamma types sometimes become too demanding and can have a streak of vindictiveness or spitefulness which prevents them from being accepting and forgiving.

Box Office Quizzing

UCL vs LSE

Sometimes there are University Challenge matches that sound like football matches — for example, Leeds vs Liverpool, or Birmingham vs Cardiff.

Rarer than this are matches which sound like American Football matches, specifically collegiate games. There are no University Challenge teams who sound like teams in the NFL unless there is a college I’ve never heard of called something like the Oxford Otters, or the Manchester Bees.

But there are a few which sound like American colleges.

For example last week UCLA played USC.

This week’s University Challenge match is just about as close as you can get to something like that. UCL vs LSE.

I don’t know if there is any rivalry between these two universities, but for the purpose of this paragraph, I’m going to say it would be a grudge match of untold rage.

UCLA played USC at a stadium with a capacity of almost 90,000. This is the next step for University Challenge, I think. There is an audience in the studio for the live recordings, sure, but it’s not quite as large as that. Perhaps we need to start with slightly lower ambitions, but what would you say to this?

Have the semi-finals and final as a live broadcast in, say, a theatre. 5,000 capacity.

Or maybe just the final, but on the same day and at the same location as the Only Connect and Mastermind finals.

If that goes well we can up the capacity. I wouldn’t want a pay-per-view on something like Sky Sports, because that takes away from the purity of it. But the BBC would have to start bidding more for the rights, like they do for Wimbledon.

Think about it @BBC.

For now, the first of the second round matches, between UCL and LSE.

Here’s your first starter for ten.

Nyang comes in early but his guess of Jane is wrong, and Holtermann Entwistle capitalises on the mistake. UCL take a hat-trick on composers and Jack continues their good start with My Neighbour Totoro. This good start continues a while longer, with two more starters from Jack and one from Prabhakar.

We had an incredible comeback last week, so could this be the beginning of one from LSE? No, it could not.

They took two bonuses to close the gap to 90, but Mandel stopped them in their tracks with 1314 on the next starter. 1314 being of course the year of the battle of Bannockburn, which is one of those facts I think I’ve known since I was about ten.

This wins them a bonus set on the song The Elements, which Daniel Radcliffe famously sung on the Graham Norton Show. The song was written in 1959, which astonished me because it feels like such a meme. Then again, they were really into goofy shit like this back in the day, weren’t they? The kind of thing that would pop up at Variety Shows.

/media/7342bfeeda8cf9ed86830d24f099c990

Perhaps I thought it was more recent because Radcliffe’s other party piece is Alphabet Aerobics by Blackalicious, which is a more recent song.

Nyang takes another starter for LSE, but they can’t maintain momentum into the music round.

Mandel takes his second of the night with magenta, and this opens the floodgates — the second half of the match belongs to him. It’s like he’d been hibernating and was awoken by the mention of Bannockburn because he took four more of the remaining starters. The rest of his team were similarly ruthless, allowing LSE only one more starter in what turned out to be a thrashing.

UCL 255–55 LSE

Tough on LSE there, who are a better team than the scoreline suggests, but UCL destroyed them on the buzzer and they couldn’t get a foothold in the match.

UCL look very strong going into the quarter-finals, though they may have to speed up their conferring if they are in closer matches. They took quite a while to come up with their answers on some of the bonuses, which won’t be tolerated in the later rounds.

Next week we have Durham vs Open (neither an American football nor a regular football match). The week after we have Exeter vs Bristol (which could just about be a game in League 1 or 2).
