Jakabite posted:Given that we are not getting to a point when COVID is eliminated entirely any time soon, when do perma-lockdown goons want to start looking at opening up? Like honestly quite a few of you seem to be perfectly happy and find ridiculous the idea that anyone might at some point in the near future want to resume something like normal life. And yes, sorry to say it, but the vast majority of people including me understand that opening up will mean some deaths that wouldn’t happen if we stayed in lockdown until next year. To the vast majority that’s a price worth paying. I’m not saying open up now obviously, but there comes a point when you have to and the fact that that means that some people will die is just the nature of viruses. very cool that being afraid to die of a deadly virus that you are susceptible to is now "actually goons just like to stay indoors all day thats why they want the lockdown!!!!!"

Jakabite posted:Yes because I'm exclusively or indeed at all talking about people who are susceptible. i am susceptible, do you think that people like me's lives are worth risking so you can go on your holidays? is there a specific number you're willing to give up to go back to normal? hell, at that point why bother locking down in the first place? if we're never gona get to zero covid then those who died simply should've been built different and some people are going to die regardless and god forbid we stop being a travel hub.

Jakabite posted:Yes because I'm exclusively or indeed at all talking about people who are susceptible. have you considered that vibe is actually "wow people would genuinely rather have hundreds of thousands more people die so they can go on those package holidays" personally i was a pretty big fan of the cinema in the before times.

Jakabite posted:Let me turn that around. Do you think that no one should ever be able to go on holiday again, or go to a pub again, so that your risk doesn't increase at all? Let me be clear that I'm not arguing against zero COVID or continuing lockdown for a good few months longer - I'm arguing against the thread idea that no increase in risk at all is acceptable to allow people to return to normal. the problem is that you're arguing that zero covid is impossible when it really isn't all it would take is the bare minimum effort that was taken in dozens of countries including major travel hubs like hong kong, I don't think the world should stop just to keep me alive but it'd be nice if they put in as much effort as possible to reach that point. I'm sorry to hear about your dad, I've personally stuggled with mental health significantly before lockdown and plenty during and I understand that it is extremely difficult for people but I live in genuine fear that any day now the goverment will decide that covid is over and decide that at risk young people just aren't worth it because well if you're in your 20's you should just be okay and while that is unlikely, it is the tories. I think it's very harsh to categorise this thread, goony as it is as a bunch of shut ins who never want lockdown to end though and I don't think anyone is arguing that nobody should die from covid ever, just that we actually take the virus seriously which will also probably not happen.

stev posted:This sounds wonderful. I mostly sit staring at the backlog trying to pick something to play/watch before going back to FF14. I basically worked my way down alphabetically and most of the games as it turns out were pretty bad but some of them made me feel very dumb for not playing earlier. I honestly wish I'd have subbed to ff14 at the start of the pandemic but I kept thinking we'd get out poo poo together any day now.

forkboy84 posted:An update on my old man, since people were kind enough to show concern: he's still got to have a COVID test just in case but the doctors are confident it's "just" a standard chest infection type of deal & so he's been loaded up on steroids & antibiotics & hopefully that'll kick his lungs into gear. Which is not the worst diagnosis all things concerned. Not quite prepared mentally to bury him yet. Lung stuff is the absolute worst so I wish you guys the best on that one.

OwlFancier posted:I wonder if any labour leader could possibly have done more to legitimize corbyn's leadership than this freak getting investigated by the electoral commission for fiddling his campaign funds and completely failing to do even the slightest amount of opposition to anything. Say what you want about corbyn but at least you knew he cared about something. the labour right will simply declare that starmer is too left wing and the only answer is to have tommy robinson as labour leader

Jose posted:should join my one issue party of sticking all journalists in a giant blender and include landlords as its technically still one issue the problem with the blender method is that it's far too humane and it's so final, if they are all trapped on an uninhabitable island you can film it and serialise it into a new reality show for the BBC using the profits to buy more islands that nobody wants and send more landlords to them. so I will also accept sending journalists terrible very bad no good islands.
