Jose posted:this finally got me to go and check the marks for mine and its pretty good. of the 3 modules 1 had 100% of its marks for the single bit of work, 1 had 60% for the single project and 40% of the group project and the marking on the single project was properly hosed so i only got 47%. The final module was split into 24% for a peer assessed but of owrk, 6% for group work and 70% for the main coursework. got 47/70 for the main coursework, 6/6 for the grouip and then got hosed on the peer review that i've contested nice bud! team "retreat back into academia to hide from plauge" kicking rear end

i thought Salmond was accused of sexual misconduct but they couldn't prove it - i even want to say he acknowledged he had been behaving inappropriately, it was just that they couldn't demonstrate it criminally. he did not get an "innocent" verdict back i want to say?

i think of all the indignities and apocalyptic dystopia theming i've enjoyed this year, the first clap was the most profoundly alienating and frightening (i was working in the NHS at the time). that was the moment i was sure i was in a film somehow, in the worst possible way.

Astonishingly braindead strategy from the Met. who is going to hold them to account for this? loving kiere starmer? he's going to put out a message saying that clearly the violence was caused by a shortage of police and angela rayner is going to post a picture of a brutalized protester with "yauusssss slay queen for supporting your democratic rights".

it can be political without being political, divorcing any decision from being political is folly. i am woefully inadequate in the internal power politics of norway, but i would put literally any quantity of money on there being some active agitating from the population and/or media for this decision, that the medical body that made this decision was subject to this and other political pressures and that the decisions are, of course, politically influenced. like everything else.

there will be scares and false starts and insane politicization and nationalism as there has been this entire pandemic, as there has been with every pandemic. it was never a "spanish" flu.

Guavanaut posted:Wasn't that because Spain was the first country to say "hey has anyone else had a bunch of excess deaths?" back when nobody else wanted to say first because of the war efforts? yes, they were the only ones willing to report it and as such everyone went "oh word?! crazy this flu from you guys is totally loving us over goddamn loving Spaniards!". recent scholarship puts the actual patient 0 as coming from a kansas mustering base iirc.

sassassin posted:Mum's getting hers next week so we're still a long way from my age bracket round here. Maybe next year. i doubt it bud, i suspect we're going to have more vaccines than arms very soon (if not already). they're advancing down the stack so they don't need to deal with people who are for whatever reason resistant, but that ratio will increase with time. healthy and well people are the most likely to wind up antivaxx and all this press coverage is not helping the oxford vaccine.

big scary monsters posted:Some bizarre posting in the last few pages. JA is quite right that there is a bunch of ageism expressed here from time to time, pages 76-78 are a good example. I know it's tempting and cathartic to just blame the over-60s for the country being poo poo, but I feel like the thread has gone full AshCrimson with pensioners in place of the English. Try and recall the much repeated arguments on why blaming every English person for the Tories is probably not fair and maybe see if there are any parallels here. i guess - i am resistant to the thread taking on some abstract character and us all being complicit with some people behaving uncomradely. we are a collection of individual posters, not some hivemind. i don't like it, it ain't my fault the thread is bad sometimes (unlike when i post in it) and that some people lead by example by welcoming people of all ages to this thread and not engaging when people don't behave that way. with that said i absolutely understand why JA would highlight this and would hope we can all try and do a little better in future?

(Sorry if I'm wrong Twisto) My memory is garbage except for completely irrelevant nonsense that no one needs to remember. oh, fair enough. yeah my preferred solution is generally to not engage with it - bad posting is bad on it's own merit and generally it burns itself out. it's been a loving year and a half already, even if it was once a week (i think someone is being extremely generous with that assessment) i am so, so tired of the "pissflaps" catchphrase. OwlFancier posted:I'm not sure there has ever been such a sense of forum wide unity honestly. alright, on that topic, here's the other thing i wrote on it this week quote:allow me to tell a story about this thread. and that's this thread! only surpassing our self contradiction with our self loathing. but we feel like we're together when we punish ourselves for it. i think about this story when i interact with this thread a lot.

Tesseraction posted:So if Labour eat poo poo in this by-election and then in the locals, how will the Guardian blame Owen Jones? better longevity with making jones a boogieman i suppose. optics of kicking an old man not optimal, much better to target a mouthy minority. ItohRespectArmy posted:they will probably unironically blame the NIP, label them corbynism continued and talk about how antisemetic it is to oppose labour. they'd never say the latter, that would imply the conservatives can be antisemitic.
