NB Enfield and I think other places are running “catch-up” MMR vaxx clinics for kids. Adults (who are too old to have had the kiddie shots) can also get jabs from your GP - it’s two shots for adults.
If you think you’ve got measles, stay away from others and PHONE your GP or NHS 111

Bush stealing the election and 9/11 happening was the one-two punch that really fucked up this whole century. Trying to come to terms with the fact that my life peaked when I was 10.
For those of you who grew up after 9/11, we got along just fine without a Department of Homeland Security for 212 years.
The DHS was formed to try to prevent future terror attacks — now, it is orchestrating them.

Measles is a bellwether. Because it’s the most contagious vaccine-preventable disease, when vaccination rates drop, it’s the first to start spreading.

They purposely ruined other apps and functions in order to funnel people to AI. The search function on Google Photos was crappy before but it's practially useless now.

The main argument against rejoining the EU is that it would "embolden Farage".
Bullshit. It would expose Farage.
It would force him to oppose the majority of voters, remind them that his last "Great Crusader" left us poor and powerless, and force him to admit he wants us to remain that way.

To give you an idea of how deranged the UK has become about gender stuff, here's Enid Blyton - the absolute avatar of classic English conservatism and a huge fan of racist "gollywogs" - casually describing a gender non-conforming kid in the 1940s and having their friends be totally cool with it.

I've been listening to Van Morrison's music for over 40 years. Even have a couple of his CDs. It was only yesterday that I found out that "Van" was an abbreviation of his name "Ivan". For over 40 years, I thought it was part of his surname, like "Van Helsing".
