has there been any progress on antibody tests for those of us who suspect we've had it but would like confirmation before relaxing lockdown? seems like that might be a good thing for a government to have plenty of right about now well it was worth a try e: Sausage has taken up cat yoga during the lockdown

like there are plenty of good shows exploring how the police are corrupt motherfuckers top to bottom but they don't exactly tend to be all that funny

given that nearly every large city has had protests it'd be hard to argue any spikes were due to protests and not, say, high population density

I think the idea is not so much that the Greens are the best left-wing option right now but it might be a lot easier to move them leftwards than it would be to move Labour leftwards under the current leadership.

Until the BBC bans him he's entirely fair game for the thread imo I don't give a poo poo about his "national presence", the point is there's no reason for every moronic take he shits out to be posted in here with a token "lol he dumb" when people who are interested in that can go to twitter dot com slash darrengrimes and the people who browse this thread for actual news probably aren't

I'm assuming it wasn't voluntary. after an extremely long and tedious campaign of low-effort trolling he finally got threadbanned from UKMT, I don't think there was a single thing which caused it so it must have been the mods finally having enough of probing him over and over then he PMed a mod asking to be allowed back in, including the immortal quote "I consider myself to be an engaging and high-impact poster with a lot to offer" so a poll was made in D&D in which either he would be allowed back in the thread or he'd get permabanned, a poll which he lost by a hilarious landslide now I believe he uses up his trolling hours being a transphobe on Twitter

so I'm pretty sure that this thread is 100% on board with outing racists/misogynists/homophobes/transphobes/general bigots to their bosses but I was wondering if there's a line somewhere like is someone's friends and family fair game? what about their partner? I was looking at the abuse that Ash Sarkar got over the orange lolly pic and I was wondering how far I'd be comfortable going if I knew/found out the name and details of one of those people
