Sympathies, am on day 10 of mine. Am using steam inhalations to loosen crap on chest to cough it out...copious amounts.

What's even more shocking for me is just how easy it's all been and how feeble the checks and balances have proven to be.

I'm sure they've known all along, they're not stupid people. They have the responsibility of walking the fine line between protection and provocation, and in the face of a madman, caution is always going to be exercised first. They won't have told public everything they're doing of course.

I'm fond of a good sausage...am in UK and always on the lookout for something new.

There will always be those kinds, especially on social media where they can rant away with impunity. In the real world, the choices are huge and the aisle where most of the plant-based stuff is in my local supermarket is as busy as the meat aisle.

I've been working my way through some plant alternatives, and the beyond range is good. I wonder whether one of the "problems" is the naming of these products?

Enforcement is tricky if not impossible.

The more that money circulates in a system, the more people that will benefit. You don't have to be a super economist to understand that. I see it a bit like a good item of clothing bought at a charity shop, used, re-cycled to another charity shop, sold again, used, etc. Lots of people benefit.

I thought there weren't such algos on here? I may have used the word "running" with ref to my nose though...perhaps that's it?

It's like a poor "O"Level translation into English from Chinese.

Despite their recent military history, I'm guessing most Americans don't "get" it.

It's a gift to be able to come up with something so neat!

I might go on a mute-fest later.

Putin's Agent Orange.
