The heatwave

[Deeranged]

How long until the buffoon comes onto our TVs and announces that we must stay at home?

After all the MSM are now reporting that some 'scientists' are predicting deaths because of the heat and are demanding a pandemic style response.

On a similar subject. Heard on one news report that people are burning floor boards and furniture (Presumably pianos) to keep warm because they can't afford to heat their homes. Next report says it could be 40C later this week.

What do these people take us for?

I don't think there's many sane people left in the country.

4 days of sunshine needs a govt response and I'm asked to go and knock on old people's doors in case.....well they didn't say ....but I'd presume in case they are dead

I think if we abolished MSM people would regain their sanity in a few mths.

Had to go into town today (always depresses me) but I saw something covidy that I cudnt work out

Guy that sells Tele is in a wee perspex booth totally enclosed.......has a jacket on and obligatory mask......stood and watched him for a minute or two wondering what would get him first dehydration or Omicrom.....I'm guessing lung cancer giving colour of his fingers but I'm no sure if you are allowed to die of that again or if it's still just COVID.

Don't think I've ever been as cynical....worlds ****ed up.

And just for clarity it was "catastrophic deaths".......I'm no sure if they meant total was gonna be catastrophic (flash back to half a million dead by Xmas) or all deaths are now catastrophic in a " one death is one death to many, save the NHS" type way.

And it's not a crisis until I see nurses doing a dance routine in the corridors of ninewells.....that's when you know.

The Tik Tok videos will indeed gauge the scale.

The heat pandemic

I'm a survivor......lived through a lot of crisis now.

Food crisis, COVID crisis, cost of living crisis, climate crisis 10 years to save the world since 1990, democracy crisis, fuel crisis, nuclear crisis, aids crisis, oil crisis, banking crisis.....sure I've forgot a few....oh aye sea level crisis, polar caps/bears crisis, pension crisis, rape culture not yet upgraded to crisis and institutionalised racism whic I think is beyond a crisis if it's institutionalised, dug deaths crisis, alcohol dependency crisis and bog roll shortage

I'm no Bear Grylls but I soldier on.

We've survived the hole in the ozone as well as managed to walk around getting wet in the acid rain which didn't melt our clothes or kill any plants.

Did you get through the summer of 1976 without melting? I managed it.

A couple of weeks ago was a programme on TV about the summer of 1976. It showed adverts at the time encouraging people to drink fizzy drinks to keep hydrated.
Nearly everyone in the news reports in 1976 looked thin.
Now 46 years later the politicians have told the fizzy drinks companies to reduce the sugar content of their drinks and people are still fat.

You forgot to mention the hole in the ozone layer which was another crisis but now we never hear anything about it.
