1820. Looks like we're seeing the spike in cases coming to its sad fruition. How many days did that huge spike continue to grow for?

We've gone a decade with people "turning a blind eye" to the obvious way that our "new Capitalism" with all it's beautiful facets like Economic externalities, Cost Benefit Analysis and the outsourcing of all work that can be done cheaper, due to reduced human, ecological or ethical rights; literally killing and injuring thousands of humans.

I never thought I'd see the day when daily deaths of 500+ people of their own fellow citizens , in the same country - could be desensitised the way that it most obviously has, by some people.

(btw, I'm a mixed economy guy, not a commie or anti capitalist).

All that said, where I live , I still think that a very clear and large majority do care and are doing everything they can to protect each other , and also are not blaming "Covidiots" but our leadership and the rather transparent way they've shown what their priorities are.

Out of all bad things, comes good. - Or so RastaMouse says anyway.

Yep, this will be the Xmas wave, we kept to the rules but lots of the neighbours had multiple overnighters! Had to ask a guy in the co-op today to move back in the queue.

Plenty of covidiots out and about. This lot must think it'll all magically avoid them:

Covid: Lacock 'Harry Potter' village busy as summertime

Maybe they're all local as Bozo is to the Olympic Park.

It's being so cheerful that keeps you, and your miserable russian chum, going, isn't it?

That and the Vodka!

With Mr "Official Doom" squirrel worrying is part of it.
