If you don't watch you step this could really escalate.

You're not exactly raisin' the bar with that one

I mean, a totalitarian regime led by the same man for 20 years invaded a democratic neighbour... but you choose your own reality I guess. I feel like you're choosing an increasingly detached one.

I agree, same with the whole of NATO so I'm not placing the responsibility for that at the door of the US. It's a responsibility we all share if you think that democracy is something worth fighting...

So the BBC report that the mayor of Mariupol has claimed that there is cholera in the city but they've been unable to verify the claim at this point. And that the UN claims that Mariupol is at risk...

^One of the best films ever!

Cities are a woolly concept in the UK. Historically it needed to have a cathedral but the queen can also just declare a city. Cardiff is particularly weird. It's a city but it contains Llandaf......

They definitely did. I really don't fancy resurrecting the thread but if you trawl the closed Covid thread you'll find a few of our own members doing it. I do think that most of it was by...

Well, yeah. But there's a whole cohort of people who believe China set out to attack the West by releasing a deadly virus in China. I'm guessing there's a substantial overlap on that particular...

Yeah, I know :)


Though you did give me an opportunity to clarify it, so thanks.

And, to some extent, the implementation but, yeah, mostly intent.

The intent is important, though. What's being suggested is that we should burn down the labs in Ukraine and that's being...

Biological research labs are not the same thing as biological weapons labs

Yes... and all the scientific evidence says that we have and continue to do so.

... Say wha?

I'm planning on doing this sometime soon (although in my own car, not a beemer). I want to head down the Rhine to Bavaria where all the fairy tale castles are.

Yeah, welcome to Europe. Our gas...

It is starting to feel that way, isn't it. I think the press mass shootings receive probably give them an exaggerated importance against far more common single killings but, still, the last few...

I hear they foreclose on their loans really aggressively. They can be a really vicious circle.


(^This is not actually true, I was just in it for the pun)

Interestingly, that Spectator article says "One theory involves the Wuhan Institute of Virology." but doesn't actually say where the theory is coming from. I did a quick search for "Wuhan MonkeyPox...

The spectator's certainly mainstream but I hardly think an article explicitely saying it didn't leak from China makes SearchDataOnly's case

You mean when he referred to the paper that the Wuhan...

We've got a similar thing over here called FundingCircle though they've stopped taking on new lender at the moment.

Hardly. I don't think it's been mentioned at all in our mainstream media and the only mention I've seen was that Dr Campbell Pod Cast.

I think you may have missed the point of Shaggy's post. He's pointing out that, if the Wuhan lab was studying MonkeyPox, that would be completely unremarkable. Studying viruses is what virology labs...

Are you a tractor?

A hospital. What is it?

Ha! Nice one.

@Niya I've said before to watch the language. And you definitely need to watch the language in the posts you're linking to. I'm going to clean some of that up, please don't post its like again.
...

Sheer embarrassment.

Yep, guns aren't a problem, we need less doors.

I wonder if he ran this past a fire-marshal.

It should be the police but I recognise that they may not be effective where you live. They certainly weren't when I lived in Nigeria and, yeah, high walls and personal body guards.

But in the US...

Hard to tell from the graphic but I suspect that's to do with gun violence and democratic voters both corelating with urbanisation.

Some are easily defined, though. Background checks and licences...

I get where you're coming from, the anxiety is slowly growing for me too. I think we're OK but it feels like something is going on that we don't understand yet.

I've been saying for a while that gun ownership isn't the problem, it's your fetishization of violence. However, your gun laws sure do enable that fetishization to turn lethal.

To put this in...

What line of code does it crash on and what error do you get?

I am trying SO hard not to make jokes about this...

I have to say, the trajectory is starting to look a little worrying. Personally I'm still writing this off as increased monitoring. Something...

Wouldn't surprise me. I'm seeing lots of it round my way. I think it's probably as bad as I've seen it since the 80s, possibly worse.

I'm personally not overly concerned. 100 cases is basically nothing and I think we're probably just jumping at ghosts after Covid. Worth keeping an eye on though.

On transmission, from what I've...

Yeah, I've seen similar articles although everything I've seen were created after the event with hindsight. Personally, I don't think his vote switch announcement was an attempt to waylay upcoming...

That's my point. You're the pot.

I assume you're talking about this already debunked conspiracy theory. It's rooted in a single picture of Gendron wearing a common Nazi symbol that the Azov...

Ha! They don't have a great reputation for reliability but I've found them pretty good. This is my second (though not simultaneous).

Reminds me of this:-

Ha, don't recognise the clip but was he in the Waterboy?
