A tidal wave is like a normal wave but bigger, something to do with the moon, whereas a tsunami is because of an earthquake or meteor strike or whatever. So in terms of covid like i guess the euros was a tsunami whereas schools going back and breaking up are tidal waves? I dunno

Tesseraction posted:From the Graun: TB is notoriously difficult to culture even if you take samples from a living human. It takes 6 weeks and you might still get gently caress all. The more active the disease is, the more bacteria are present and the more likely you are to get a positive culture. Unfortunately TB has a habit of being walled off in little granulomas all over the place which do not make culture easy. The TB tests usually look for antibodies which is a lot easier than finding the organism.

Unless I missed something, I don't think anyone even suggested Barry Foster not post ITT, only mildly corrected doomer talking points about how Omicron was going to breeze straight past existing immunity (vaccine or natural).

Barry has also repeatedly mentioned mental health trouble. I got the impression that he said he was going to stop posting after it became clear that this was likely affecting his perception of the new strain.

The classic "do nothing and wait for the Tories to eventually gently caress themselves" strategy paying off for ol' Kieth Still got some way to match Corbyn's high score (46) or biggest lead (10%) though

Nah mate, people accused him of doomerism and blamed him for flaring up their anxiety. So he peaced out. Coronavirus is bad. Not Baz's fault, blame the government for failing to deal with it seriously from day 1, that's what has hosed my anxiety. Anyway. Miffed the Tories haven't knifed Boris yet. Need some entertainment

Aside from just generally being a bit poo poo, I’m guessing a lot of Labour people are being sheepish about calling for Johnson’s head because they went to a shindig of their own that the tabloids are saving for a rainy day.

I’ve seen a lot of that but Labour and KS have persistently refused to call for resignations on a number of matters. It is more likely (to me) that they are just being lily-livered, rather than compromised themselves.

They're trying to appeal to Tory voters. Tory voters don't like politicians calling for resignations because the vast majority of resignation-worthy poo poo is done by Tory MPs

https://twitter.com/GeorgeMonbiot/status/1469200734927433731?s=20 George Monbiot still generally a good egg. Can't ever, ever imagine any of the other Guardian melts doing this. Unrelated, but this is cool: https://twitter.com/beatthefallacy/status/1468991831635599367?s=20 https://antiwork.reddit.com is great. Mostly talk about US work situation but it's a real, growing movement - the fastest growing subreddit, and I think it could actually lead to something substantive.

A "good egg" doesn't spend a week calling all Corbyn supporters Assadists because someone did a "this you" tweet. It's to his credit that he's deleted it, but he's revealed a lot about the way he thinks, none of it good.

Tesseraction posted:It's true that journalists are often trying to lead you into a mistake, but in this case unless Jaeluni's hypothetical is true, you can say anything negative about Johnson and the public will side with you. Which is how you get your ‘fails to condemn bad thing Johnson has done’ headline, backed by a quote of the one of the five replies that left that specific point out. It makes no difference to anyone involved which particular subgroup of Labour supporters come to hold which particular set of negative opinions about the current Labour leader and programmer. Neither is it particularly important what degree of truth there is in the claim. The point is that those negative opinions come to be held, and that people change their support correspondingly. If you can’t see that process working, you have not been keeping up with this thread.

kecske posted:read a climate change thread or something to fully shatter your mind into pieces so that you can confront any piece of political news with a shrug and maybe a lol or two Ask yourself why only SA threads full of computer touchers know the secret that everything is doomed. There's nothing the average office drone isn't an expert in apparently. Climate science, epidemiology, bio-sciences. i'd advise anyone that wants to 'shatter their mind' gain at least basic aptitude in reading scientific papers and make their own decisions rather than threads of curated horror by posters with unmedicated and extreme anxiety
