Fantastic to see people in China finally making a stand against authoritarianism under the guise of 'public health'. Indeed, some of these measures were supported by certain high-profile proponents of The Science™. Naturally, my cutting-edge analysis was predicting this collapse long ago.

Indeed. He needs to take the L here and move on. I just can't comprehend how he, and many other Ukrainians, are unable to see where NATO going to war with Russia could ultimately lead, regardless of how desperate they may feel.

Indeed. How can many Ukrainians be unaware that NATO going to war with Russia really wouldn't be a good thing for them, when they are already giving them a chasing as is. I agree. Sadly, there are only the least worst options to try and navigate.

In time at least, might this actually be a catalyst for putting pressure on Zelensky and Ukraine to try and compromise? Or will it be the green light for more advanced equipment being sent?

The CEO of Edinburgh Airport is a Hertz man, so you could be on to something.

Zero Covid about to go in the bin in China. Cheers, Deepti's crying.

We are going to fucking stroll to third again in the second half of the season, lads. Conference League was a decent starter, but hopefully we can make it into the Europa League group stage next time out. Who we all fancying?

Have Hibs won a game yet against eleven men?

Meanwhile, could the CCP finally be losing control? Something is surely going to have to give soon.

Why would they or how could they? They didn't shut schools or other early learning related activities. The conditions that are being blamed as the cause in the UK literally didn't exist in Sweden. There is an abundance of evidence that Swedish children suffered no learning loss even when compared to other Nordic countries.

Howling at this, btw. The loony fringe were the clowns in the Scottish Government who pushed 'Zero Covid', and who were still going on in March about masks and Covid-passes being essential long-term, even as it was becoming abundantly clear that sensible nations around Europe were already rolling this back and consigning it to history. Equally howling at Wee Bully's new found commitment to ensuring rigorous debate, learning lessons, and making things up. We'll just forget all that simping trying to defend the Scottish Government's tombola decision making on a weekly basis! I was on the right side of history in March 2020 - the side that won and got normal life back. The loony fringe are the ones who wanted permanent societal change. They lost, and lost badly.

How would Sweden, which didn't shut schools, have the same lockdown-related speech delays caused by... shutting schools.

^^^ SG Lockdown Lover found Wee Bully: 1. Sweden never shut schools, you wally. 2. 'Child speech delays increase due to lockdowns'... bUt WaLeS!!111 Scotland the worst performers of the lot. Oh dear. I'm sure the Welsh data couldn't possibly be incomplete and/or an outlier, given trends in Europe and worldwide. At least China won't need to be concerned for the way its weans are being abused thanks to Mark Drakeford's pioneering!

This makes sense, but I've hilariously just realised I was searching the times in the app without flipping the airports, i.e. going to Edinburgh rather than from.

And McGeady.

Anyone know why the flight times Skyscanner are showing for Ryanair seem to be different from what Ryanair are showing, both on their website and their app?

Pain.

Are you okay, mate?

Lockdown lovers won't be able to accept this. Oddly enough the Swedes don't have such a problem.

He's always been a solid player for us really. Especially liked him since his two good goals against Hibs last season. Anyway, the shape might take some work, but something like this after the World Cup break would be disgustaaan: Gordon Smith/Atkinson Halkett Rowles Kingsley McKay Beni Devlin Snoddy Halliday/Cochrane Shankland

I wouldn't worry about it. We will finish third again. The fact Aberdeen and Hibs couldn't put any distance between themselves and us despite us playing in Europe until now and having so many key players out injured, particularly at the back, will be bitterly disappointing for them. We also played both of them away in the first round of fixtures and are about to play the Old Firm for a fourth time. They have only played them twice. Rowles is an absolute Rolls Royce of a centre back. Him and Halkett back together after the World Cup break. Halliday and Cochrane are playing fantastically at the moment, yet Kingsley will come back in as well. Then Beni and Snoddy pulling strings in the middle with Devlin nipping every c**t's heels. If we get the 'luxury' of a mostly fit squad for the second half of the season, nobody outside of the Old Firm will trouble us. That's just a fact.

Well, well, well.

Cases must be falling again as there's no news about it, like there was a few weeks back.
