It's from this magnificent slice of cultural appropriation:

 

 

First black performer ever in Eurovision. Not all landmarks are worth remembering.  

[Monkeys Fist 42379]

Was she also the first trans performer? 
 

Those are builder’s arms.

The Oxford vaccine is just 70% effective. What’s the point in taking it in the U.K. if better options are available?

[Ayatollah Hermione 13859]

National pride. I’ll take my chances with 70% and my bulldog spirit will make up the other 30%

It is British and not developed by some Turkish immigrants in the EU.

Priti Patel likes it.

The 70% is the average - they've devised a dosing regime that's 90% effective. 

 

Also nobody who got the vaccine and did still get it was seriously ill which is great. 

[Billy Whitehurst 895]

90% is still pretty decent. I’m sure I read that the threshold for approval is 50%. 

 

Just give the expensive one to high risk people and give the rest of us the cheap one.

 

Renton seems to be pretty knowledgable on this stuff so hopefully he’ll be able to tell us what it all means.

 

Anyway, light at the end of the tunnel, thank fuck.

It doesn't have to be superfrozen, it can be stored in a conventional fridge. That's a game changer for the third world. The trials were split between the UK & Brazil 

 

0.5 then a full dose apparently gives the 90% figure

[ewerk 30558]

Have they got enough evidence to verify the 90% figure? I just hope they don’t try and do it on the cheap.

Get out and do your shopping even if you live in high infection area

I’m getting strong eat out to help out vibes here

As much as he’s a horrible fucking cunt, one of his greatest failings as a leader is his desire to be popular 

[Meenzer 15518]

Imagine wanting to go Christmas shopping.

[Alex 35062]

 good point 

[Tom 14011]

Personally I think we should postpone Christmas 6 months.

Imagine having Christmas in the garden with some cans, watching euro 2020!

”Socks? Awesome, thanks Nanna, i ran out in December” 

[Monkeys Fist 42379]

When I worked abroad on the activity camps we’d have a “Christmas” piss-up on July 25th-Summer Christmas. 
No idea where it started but it was a big tradition. 
The kitchen tent used to do Christmas dinner, there’d be secret Santa, and a tree.

the PM: “it’s the season to be jolly careful”

Okay for you bro, but 40 degrees is not that much fun 

[Renton 21579]

"Christmas in July" has always been a thing in the US hasn't it? Stupid septics. 

[Meenzer 15518]

Gives us an excuse to cue up this tune, so I'm all for it.
