No chance youâd get a bad dose of it? It probably wouldnât take to ya
There is no proper journalism anymore, they are just PR people.
We now have to do a (pcr?)test every Sunday night before heading off to work on the Monday
I had it before the bat that had it before the chinese had it had it
If we can get numbers down to a trickle by June or July, which Iâm confident we can via renewed compliance with restrictions, vaccination roll out and helpful climate then thatâs the time to implement a hardcore zero Covid policy for 12-18 months. Weâll essentially have a Covid free country and then we can give this extra time to totally eradicate all trace of it. As @mickee321 says, we should be back attending sporting events and concerts from around September 2022 at the earliest.
What the absolute fuck is this?
Ah for fuck sake
Holy fuck
Luke OâNeill is not a bad lad but clearly absolutely mental
What a fucking joke.
Evidence of the âMontrose bubble â
âItâs very well managedâ
Whatâs going on, Iâm not watching for reasons of sanity
I switched to Newsnight, whatâs happening?
Is that a slimmed down Bertie on the right?
RTĂ are running low on filler. Somebody saw a video of a Flaming Lips gig where the audience were in plastic bubbles so they got âcomedianâ Bernard OâShea and Professor Luke âIâm actually a big fan of the Flaming Lipsâ OâNeill in to the studio to try out plastic bubbles as if this was going to be the answer to the music industryâs woes.
The fact the country is locked in and forced to give them attention out of boredom has a few of these RTErs believing in their own celebrity, and they are intoxicated from it it seems.
I genuinely do mate. What weâre seeing is only the tip of the iceberg. Mass unemployment, and all the associated knock-on impacts, are en route. And just you wait until 15-30% of the population make it clear that they wonât get a vaccine, and employers and society start to treat them differently because of it. The Workplace Relations Commission will be inundated with claims of discrimination, and no doubt plenty of points of law will be referred to the courts, tying them up for years.
In general, I think we are at a point now where the polarisation between people has reached levels that I personally havenât experienced previously. There can be no middle ground as long as the left demands that everyone thinks the same as they do, and any variance is demonised with an âismâ of some sort or another. Itâs as if centrism has been deleted from existence, and taking a moderate position is akin to political surrender.
Something that would have previously been seen as a fundamental prerequisite for getting through your life, namely a thick skin, is no longer required. It is now a crime in some countries to offend someone. Itâs genuinely depressing. Anyway, Iâll finish with a quote. In Ann Widdecombeâs 2019 address to the Oxford Union, she said the following:
Nobody has the right to live their lives being protected from offence, or from insult, or from hurt feelings. It is an occupational hazard of living in society, and if you really canât take it, become a hermit.
