As for Tubridy and them I'm not sure egotists will understand the movie.So could be two potatoes in a field and they would gush. Intere...

Allows instant direct messaging and also telegram keeps the anonymity as no longer needs a phone number. Also keeps the contacts if sites die off. There was a worry it distra...

Re: Vaccine megathread

They have even stopped measuring positive infections, would it not make more sense to track infection rates in under 50s and vaccination for this cohort then is really pointless.

But do some virtue signaling, and blame Cows, it's the only way forward.
