Yeah they have almost blockaded the UK but it is too little too late...the new strain has already spread far beyond the UK....fortunately the vaccines are supposed to work on this new strain....
The dramatic rise in figures here would make more sense if it's the new strain.
I think we're going to be closing all the borders again for Christmas.
Only very slight silver lining is we look like having a White Christmas here. Enough snow and people wouldn't be able to travel anyway. -
Seems there's another Young Medicine. That was a rather unpleasant few minutes.

The bit that worries me is that we're going to go from the 'normal' process to millions in a very short time. Usually there is time to spot if something was missed in trials but this time it's big bang.
On an entirely selfish level I see no scenario where I'll be vaccinated before the mid to late summer. I'm not uncomfortable with that.
That said, as soon as my partners parents and my close friend fighting cancer are vaccinated I can relax. Don't want to be the one to infect somebody else and kill them.
Will be interesting to see the point at which things do get a lot better. Once you have the most vulnerable and medical staff vaccinated you'd think we can start opening things up as the death rates should plummet. Things won't be 'normal' but I'd really like to think by March/April time we can have most things open, even if with restrictions.

Not Snowflakes who are triggered?
I do think that the dumbest thing Hillary said was the deplorables insult and it may well have lost her the election.

It's kind of a derivation on should a tolerant society tolerate the intolerant though.

One of the few albums in the last few months to really grab my attention. Quite a few listens now and really like it.

Right in my sweet spot this. Couple of listens in and really like it.

Meh.
may as well fight against enforcement of seat belts, or not being allowed to carry guns.
Sometimes people have to be ordered to do what is known to be safe to protect themselves and others.
Not looking for a debate into guns or the effectiveness /consequences of vaccines.
Simply, IMO, there is a vast greater good for accepting them compared to the rare complications.
covid vaccine is the same, tried and tested, safe, and I'm happy if people are obligated to get it to go about their normal lives. -
Lebrock mentioned on these pages and absolutely love it. I've then noticed a fair few other posts about Synthwave.
What's worth listening to of this genre? -

I should be for the vaccine. I really want to be able to trust it and generally I'm very pro vaccines. Problem is the money involved is huge and there's national prestige in the mix as well. When you see day on day news coming in with each vaccine claiming 1 or 2 percent better efficacy and then look at the sample sizes it doesn't leave me feeling super comfortable we're doing full due diligence.
I really hope my fears are unfounded and I suspect by the time I'd be likely to get it there will be a lot more data in to allay my fears.
So right now I sit firmly on the fence.
I wouldn't touch the Russian one with a barge pole though. -
It'll get spun again. For sure not dreadful. Well , except one ballad that immediately annoyed me.

Not sure whether to try this or not. I'm actually more worried it might have redeeming features.

Ted Cruz seems to be doing everything he can to look like the next in line.

Well, if nothing else here, we've proven that non-Americans know about as much about the media and culture in the U.S. as Americans know about media and culture in other countries.
Yep. Murdoch’s involved with a lot of it in most of the ‘developed’ world.
And there’s no such thing as American culture otherwise you wouldn’t be in the middle of a culture war.

I really loved Vega,Passion album,TMF,Gathering of kings,Brother Firetribe,HEAT was also nice,although not better than Adress the nation,One desire was nice but not better than previous one,JSS was imo decent but not even close to say Damage control.
I really am looking forward to LeBrock album,these boys are great surprise,WET one and Midnite city too.
Lebrock I’m a little confused about.
So I’m listening to them a lot at the moment. Love it. But it’s electronic or retro electronic or something like that isn’t it? Do we classify it as HH approved ?
Whole world of similar stuff keeping me entertained right now. The joys of lockdown and YouTube.

not a Biden supporter as such, but just desperate to see the back of Trump, as is most of the rest of the UK
We can now get back to Brexit and the joy of Cummings going.

Just saw on the Corona thread that Glen is not froom the US.
For whatever reason, I did not know this.
That makes the 2 mpost vocal Trump complainers/Biden supporters non US based people.
I apologise for regarding their opinions at times as being from actual people who live in the US.To see how an illusion works you have to step outside the illusion.
We may we’ll be the most likely to be objective on the topic.
