Date: 2022-02-10 03:40 pm (UTC)So The Regent is going to be overrun by stoodnts real soon now, with the usual noise/rubbish problems. (There being few other amenities of interest to 18-21yos on Montrose Terrace.)
And probably a side-order of homophobia as they discover that The Regent is a gay real ale pub.
Fuck.

I'd also rather have a fold down bed with a desk:

Date: 2022-02-11 12:05 am (UTC)It always interests me how people insist that typical post-partum depression relates to hormonal changes related to pregnancy and delivery, and thus can't be experienced by the other parent/anyone else. And yet we know that Couvade syndrome is a thing that can cause non-pregnant people to undergo those same hormonal changes. So why would the impact of those hormonal and bodily changes stop the second that the baby is delivered?
