New thread!

@iamapixie
Im starting to feel that finding new ways of calling people names is my biggest contribution to these threads

I have tablets. Not much more they can do for now.

Husband yeeting is not available on the NHS

[quote LivinLaVidaLoki]@TrustTheGeneGenie I have just bobbed over there and given them 13 scientific papers to read that support children being in school.

Happy reading Malakas![/quote]
Thanks I think I love you

nothing small steps.

What have you been prescribed? Just some of us may have experience.

Sertraline. I was on a low dose already, he's increased it.

@TrustTheGeneGenie 😘
Also, not sure why after all I only posted twice but I've caused a flounce....

FYI it's a bit rich calling us zealots.

Covid deaths yesterday

England 50, Wales 6, Scotland 1, NI 0 = 57

Then the added England figure of 119 bringing the total up to = 176

Sorry you're having such a rubbish time Nothing

Regarding turning empty shops etc into residential. I realise I've turned proper middle aged and very supportive of pedestrianising the bits of our high street that have traffic, and ideally our local park too. Empty shops look so awful and a mix of housing/shops could be a culture change that really works. But I suspect they'd all be turned over to crap landlords further driving the rental trap for people. Our local council housing stock was decimated by RTB and I would really hope it would be an opportunity to solve the lack of affordable housing/homelessness.

The opposite of a zealot according to the dictionary is a moderate, I find people on this thread to be the epitome of moderates.

Where are all these added deaths coming from!

We just had a non dementory letter from the schools trust hoping things can return to normal after the summer as we all want some normality
Thank goodness

Nothing I am taking fluoxetine (prozac) same kind of thing, if one doesn't suit there are others to try. Hope it helps you

Justasking That's 176 too many deaths. Sorry: DEATHS. Also the statistics are wrong because actually my aunt's dog's vet's cousin is a senior manager in the NHS and says that today they had to buy oxygen from Germany via a tunnel under the sea because they ran out because everyone DIED. And it's because very STUPID SELFISH people send their kids to school and everyone is now dead.
Ah that's better.

@TrustTheGeneGenie
PHE and the NHS. Who then periodically realise they have double counted and have to adjust the number. It's a fkn joke.

The added deaths are from outside hospitals in england (ie care homes, homes, hospices...). They were only reported yesterday and may have occurred weeks ago but PHE don't give the date of death (unlike the NHS) so there is no way to tell.

I think arguing with a school dementor is unfortunately like playing chess with a pigeon, no matter how well thought out your argument they are just going to knock over all the pieces, shit on the board and claim they've won.

I now have a tea speckled iPad.

Can’t work out if pm means “pm me hun”, “pissed myself” or “place-marking”.

Feel tainted.

Pissed malakas?

Pissed Malakas 🤣

I can't do the schools fight today - I'm feeling broken and had to lay off the activism to save myself. Finally managed to get to chat to DD2's new teacher for September (assuming they ever get back to school) about her SEN and the pile of issues we deal with, coupled with the fact lockdown means we have no idea if she's lost the vision in one eye, when you lay them out and the impact of all of this... it's terrifying. Plus the Leicester footage all day has been upsetting me as it's places I know back to being ghost towns.

What's finished me is DD2 bringing all her school books and equipment home tonight - like it's the end of term (it's not!) and then that is it, the end of her time at her infant school. Just feels so cold and blunt - the kids who haven't got to go back to school will no doubt be contacted to come and collect their belongings - like you would a fired employee. THEY ARE SEVEN YEARS OLD! No goodbyes, no leaving stuff, not even getting to see their teacher and say goodbye - just a bag with what they had of the school year shoved in it.

I am professionally involved with schools, maintained ones. The primary school my kids go to (and that I'm a governor of) is actually part of a large academy trust.

I was speaking to one of their building surveyors today about a project at the school, and he said the CEO of the trust is absolutely determined that every child will attend full time in September, which has reassured me slightly...

I got told today that Jane works in the NHS and all hospitals and doctors are being briefed for the second wave which WILL come i. October so going back to school full time is pointless as we'll be in lockdown again.

And on an unrelated point I'm going to have a little cry alone tonight as DS didn't get a trophy for his grassroots team AGAIN (zoom presentation). I know I sound biased but he's one of the best players they have and for 3 fucking years they have overlooked him due to local 'politics' He's 8 and said I'm not bothered mum I just love the team when inside I know he cares very much. I just thought he might get one tonight

Yes nothing to do with Covid but I'm so sad for him and can't rant anywhere else 😢😢

I have just had to stop myself calling someone something that would get me banned.

I'm seething.

It means place marking. I'm too lazy to write anything else.
