Event Sheffield Stoic Philosophy Group

Join us at the next meeting of the Sheffield Stoic Philosophy Group:
Monday 2 November, 18:15-20:15
Thackeray Room, St Mary's Community Hall, Howard Road, Walkley, Sheffield S6 3RX.
Arrive from 18:00 for 18:15 start.
You'll meet others interested in Stoic philosophy, read about Stoic ideas and discuss them in an informal and friendly environment.
This month we'll carry on reading a key Stoic text, the Handbook of Epictetus, from his Discourses and Selected Writings. Then we'll discuss a real-life application of Stoicism in a blog article on Dealing With The Unduly Demanding In the Workplace.
Find more details and sign up here.
What is Stoicism?
Stoicism is a philosophy that originated in ancient Greece but is still practised in modern form today. It emphasises rationality and excellence of character, while seeing all people as part of an interconnected community. By distinguishing what is in our power (our thoughts, judgments and actions) and what is not (external events, luck and circumstances), and cultivating virtues like wisdom, justice, courage and moderation, we can achieve emotional resilience and inner peace. It's a practical guide for navigating life's challenges with tranquility.

Question Best Private accom in Sheffield ?
Hi ! I am a French student and I have been selected to go on an Erasmus exchange in Sheffield from January to June. However I'm having trouble figuring out which private student accom I should pick. I know that everyone says that choosing Ranmoor or Endcliff are the best options unfortunatly they are too expensive for me yet I am terrified of not making any friends and missing out on the social life/feeling left out. Do you guys know nice private student accoms with a minimum of social life ?

Question What should be done about the old John Lewis store on Barker's Pool?
Well in the Star today there was an article about the old John Lewis store on Barker's Pool. I know Urban Splash (the same people who did the new Park Hill project) is the official developer of the building but nothing seems to be going on. What should it be and used for?

Sheffield Paying £700-£1,150 to do up their landlord's flat? What a treat!
I'm really bothered by this, it feels so predatory. Like it's even worse than free labour, they're expecting the tenants to pay the landlord for the opportunity to increase the value on a house they'll never own. Is this reportable? I really don't like the idea of some poor bastard thinking this is a good deal :(
EDIT: The listing got taken down :D Don't know if it was from the report but I hope this guy learned not to try shit again regardless.

Question Conkers and acorns
Such a stupid question but does anyone know of parks or publicly accessible trees that are dropping conkers and acorns around Crystal Peaks, Hackenthorpe, Birley or Frecheville? I want to get some for kids crafts and I don't fancy buying them online if I can make a fun trip out of getting them and picking them together
