Darth Walrus posted:Went to Tesco, and saw that they do chocolate chip, double chocolate chip, and triple chocolate chip cookies, which makes me wonder - who actually buys the double chocolate ones? Seems like with cookies, you either want them to be a bit chocolatey or as chocolatey as is humanly possible. Is there in fact a thriving market for chocolate centrism? A THIRD WAY YOU SAY?

I think the south african strain, or a similar one with the same adaptations could end up being another big wrinkle in the saga before Covid gets put in the bin but I am believing more and more we might not be living in a state of existential terror by the end of the summer. The Tories are probably going to make hay out of being the vaccine saviors but then looking at the opposition, does it even really matter?

I doubt it's deliberate but Starmer is doing a really good job all the same of preparing the ground for a centre left candidate to be welcomed by the left and centre wings of the party just by not being such an entirely worthless neoliberal empty suit. I had zero expectations from Starmer but I still couldn't conceive that he would be this detestable

On the other hand, we could just not import American social values onto our own use of our language?

The really big elephant in the room with this 'route out of lockdown' is the prevalence of South African covid (and the new UK mutation with similar characteristics). If we can't at least stamp out any traces of that before we ease measures it'll establish itself as one of the main strains and given it can get people who've had the oxford jab will have a competitive advantage over the domestic variants and then we'll virtually be back to step one, maybe with a lower death count but still a huge number of cases and a continually mutating virus

It really seems like something the government really could, and should, be doing even under the strategy it has taken is a concerted effort to get the low uptake communities vaccinated, both in terms of transmissions and fatalities ignoring that area of society just seems like leaving money on the table

It's more than a little perverse than we're just so loving desperate for it to be over that if Johnson can preside over even a middling return to normality off of the back of the vaccine programme he's going to be hailed like a victorious war prime minister for 'bringing us through it'

You'll probably be vaccinated by grand reopening day, or very soon after and most of the adult population should be as well. Things definitely still could go wrong, but they don't definitely have to, especially if the teachers can force a phased reopening which currently seems to be the biggest area of concern

I mixed ale and white wine round a BBQ at my Dad's last year and I was so sick the next day I burst a blood vessel in my eye, my stomach felt like I'd stripped out all the lining too. So in the future I think I'll just avoid getting pissed on any kind of wine at all

When lockdown 1 hit I badgered all my friends into getting tabletop simulator and we fairly seemlessly moved from going IRL board game saturdays to discord hangout TTS saturdays, not everyone's hung about since but it's kept a skeleton of normality and social interaction alive. Online gaming in general has just been a godsend over the last years, I end up speaking to a few people now more than I used to between various game evenings

I think it's just exhausting being scolded for enjoying a product assocated with an abuser/bad person in a world where literally every industry under the sun promotes and protects abusers.

Gort posted:This post is protection and promotion of abusers The point is everything contains abusers. You may as well barge into any Ubisoft thread in Games or practically any Hollywood film thread in CineD and run off the same spiele, there's just no escaping that at some point most people are going to part with money that is going towards someone who did something horrific. So maybe at some point you don't need to hear the word 'D&D' and immediately inform everyone in the vicinity that it was made by BAD PEOPLE and strongly imply they are also bad people if they engage with it.
