Re: The fall of western civilization

Import third word people and then act surprised when they bring third world behavior to the west with them. Are you so naive that you think only 'black and brown' people can do shocking things to each other? Necrophilia has been around for centuries. The ancient Greeks spoke of it. Renaissance Ital...

Such an enormous advantage for that chick to be the first hatched though I have seen Ospreys successfully rear 3 to fledging before. They're not like storks, storks will literally throw the weaker chicks from the nest.

Based solely on the article you posted he seems to have been very unfairly treated. He's suing. We'll see how it goes. From the article, they were in a consentual relationship so I don't see what's the issue. She was 29 and now claims she was 'groomed' (ffs... get a grip!). It seems to be the extrem...

Nothing wrong with a Transit van. But it’s not exactly built for WRC homologation, is it? Same with Yumi Nu. She’s more family estate with a towbar and enough to overtake a caravan than a nimble hot hatch, and we all know that. Well, there's Ford Transits and there's Ford Transits... https://www.ul...

Re: Depp/Heard defamation case

its a sure fire win for Depp I'm not so sure. If the jury was made up solely of 19 year old girls I'd agree. The gallery is, they frantically wave to him every time he enters the court, but the jury is not. In US defamation law it's very much an uphill climb for the plaintiff. They have to prove, o...

Not heard anything locally about the Baltray site this year yet. Cars can't get nearly as close to the site as they used to be able to so I expect far less dog walkers around there this year.

Re: Vaccine megathread

A qualifier being ignored is that some of the most vulnerable cannot be vaccinated. I think the figure Paul Reid gave was 28,000 being advised not to get vaccinated. It might have been a little more? Either way, it's a very small % of the population. Less than 1%. I don't think they're being ignore...

On these numbers it is impossible to say definitively that the vaccine is clearly protecting people from ICU. That's an incredible statement. On the lowest ratio week for the unvaccinated, the 8th Feb, there were 30 unvaccinated out of a total of 72 patients. That means ON THE LOWEST WEEK that a wh...

Perhaps you could point to the week that the unvaccinated haven't made up a disproportionate percentage of patients if it's not 'always'?
