Not the actual situation but the media trying to create frnezy around the situation. Not a comment supporting BB here from me, but a comment understanding media created frenzy. She was being dismissive of media.

Bought a new computer but it sits unused because I have not configured it yet because I am still quite ill and have neither the mental bandwidth or physical stamina for it. So glad your health has improved! Great news!

As you say, you were in pretty bad shape just a year ago. But sorry to hear covid is still a major problem where you are.<br />We went to see Jonathan Porritt talking about climate breakdown yesterday and he was trying to be a bit upbeat about the future. He mentioned Rebecca Solnit, who likes the idea of renunciation, meaning renouncing all those things that are bad for the planet and don't do us much good, like owning cars.nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10472673041193755894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14874528.post-19205152085249144952023-03-25T14:18:59.410-02:302023-03-25T14:18:59.410-02:30Welcome back, you've been missed, and such goo...Welcome back, you've been missed, and such good news of your improved health.

A neighbour's younger brother died from Covid a couple of weeks ago.<br />How can we judge the actions of politicians at the time when they openly lie to us and the media fails to hold them to account for their words at the time. I think many are wiser now for the Iraq debacle where we were blatantly lied to and boy, aren't we a whole lot more cynical than what we were.
