When you CHINK about it.
When you CHINK about it.
Face masks, pointless testing and isolating. Far more people than should be the case seem to be all for it. "It's only a minor inconvenience".
And I have no problem with inconvenience when it's worthwhile, hell I spent a year indoors and that was fine, but to still be doing this shit now when we've just seen the most successful vaccination programme in all of human history and we've booster jabbed however many millions more is a bit batshit to me.
I’m confused. Lateral flow tests are free from pharmacies. Why are you paying for them?
I'm a twit
PCR's are needed for travel. They aren't free. Then again, travel's mostly a luxury.
EDIT: Actually, scratch that. Day 2 testing means you can just turn up at a testing centre and get it done for nowt.
For day 2 lateral flows for travel (RIP those) you have to buy one with a code, the free ones aren't allowed. Same for PCRs.
Ah, that's a shitter. You need a 16 digit code to pick up lateral flows from pharmacies now. Not that it stopped me picking up some yesterday.
Fuck.Ing.Hell.
Dr Angelique Coetzee, the South African doctor who first spotted the new Covid variant Omicron, says the patients seen so far have had "extremely mild symptoms" - but more time is needed before we know the seriousness of the disease for vulnerable people.
We're in a right Omicron Persei St8.
The symptoms of all them have been mild, don't start fucking trying to play it cool now, you soft shites.
Can you scent your own farts yet?
Not really.
They've since left the country which is fun.
Stop shoving bats up your arse and we'll consider shipping some vaccines.
This tweet has properly triggered me:
Her kids must be wrecks.
That's a Prof of Public Engagement in Science no less Jim.
These people are dangerous and I fucking knew they'd all be out of their hideouts, disgracing actual science left, right and centre.
Note: Yevrah is mad about SCIENCE because he knew better and also mad about absolute randoms with large audiences using SCIENCE to fear factor people into being scaredy cats.
Jim posted the link, but you keep being obsessed with me.
Lol.if youd like to know the difference. Jim clearly finds these people Laughable. You find them dangerous and a sign of things to come.
Obsessed.
Only because I think youre better than this my man. Thats literally the only reason. If dquincy said the same things I wouldnt reach the same way dude.
At least the resistance are here.
Supposed to be skiing the last week of January. TUI may as well cancel it now and give me my money back.
I'm supposed to be going to a selection of European countries next week for work, I've ordered an eight-pack of tenterhooks to get me through this week.
6 Omicron scums in Scotland. Rebuild the wall ffs.
@Yevrah any updates on the SCIENCE t-shirts?
He's still on the naughty step thinking about what he's done.
Unscheduled ANNOUNCEMENT from the turdgeon. She's loving it.
You know I'm right though. This is all absolutely mental and there are people who really should know better, lots of them, doing their best to keep the shambles going.
It's a shame any organised opposition to it seems to start and end with complete loons like those in Kiko's link.
The whole country has decended into wing nut lunacy on both sides. I suppose it's no surprise Covid has gone the same way.
Lewis was right when he tabled banning all American news coverage.
I can't remember if I've made this hot take already on here or only 'IRL', but my week in Spain recently really hit home how exposed we are to the absolute tidal wave of cultural bullshit that floods over from America. Non-English speaking countries are so much better insulated and free to continue doing their own thing.
Take this 'Rittenhouse' thing recently. Why do we care? Why was it in our news? Nothing to do with us.
Netflix doesn't help either.

Talk about stealing a living.
Isn't that what Dawkins used to do? Albeit for a University rather than the government. If so, I guess obsessing over unimportant shit in an irritating tone must be in the job spec.
Yes. A position that was created just for him. He was also stealing a living in that position.
Also, that woman is also doing it for a university, hence the "professor".
What is our perceived authority?
I am ok with her talking about whatever the fuck she wants, even if it is complete nonsense. That kind of position, however, is complete BS. Then again, academia has tons and tons of people who are just there so that their name is associated to the university and contribute fuck all.
Research on that yourself looser.
