  1. not sure your point. or you missed the fact I was pointing out Under 50's have only had 3 shots and none of the Omicron targeted ones. Yes the most venerable should get more frequent vaccinations than other groups. But perhaps don't completely ignore younger groups. we can still get sick and spread it. We can still get long covid.
  2. Seems this is for the over 75's and extra vulnerable people. Those Under 50 have only had 3. Which makes me very nervous I do hope that Under 50's can get a booster at the end of the year. This year. It would be nice to have at least one targeted at Omnicom or whatever is dominant at the time instead of the original.
  3. That might have been thier intention, but the show did a very poor job of showing this cure with these people in this setting had even the slightest chance to work. If the show actually set up the dilemma as they intended. Then yes Joels actions where not correct. He was still totally right in rescing Ellie, and killing most of the guards. But should not have killed the doctor. If possible wait for ellie to wake up, wait a day or two and talk it through. Then preform the surgery with Ellies informed consent. If Ellie said no, then no surgery. No cure. Fine. In the situation actually presented, maybe Joel couod have just shpt the doctor in the leg to get the others moving. But every person their he left alive was a threat to future Ellie, and Joel needed to move fast.
  4. This. Although TV science is often very not real world science. So in tv land despite it not making sence it could be the brain that stopped the infection. Still need to gather as much data as possibke and check out the non leathal possible cure places first. As if they are wrong and tv science is not on their side then its too late to check the other things cos she is now dead.
  5. I think thats rather natural. I have a cousin who live on the other side of the world. I have only seen when she visited as a young child. I know she is far older now and had a child of her own. But I still think of her as that 6 year old I met. Its how I picture her as that is who she is in my memories. and that is someone I hardly knew. Not someone I interacted with every day for years. Joel remembering her daughter as a 14 year old and comparing her to Ellie as a 14 year old recognising that 14 year old Sarah and 14 year old Ellie would have gotten along is not wierd. Thinking of Sarah as a 30 year old when she died at 14 so never got to even be 20 as a default would be wierd. Its only when you stop to think for a moment and apply just how long its been can you picture them the age they would be and specualte what they might be like now.
  6. Of course they don't deserve to die, I don't condone the death penelty for any crime. But Joel and Ellie are living in a very different world. Joel killing them may not have been right, but in the circumstances I can't say it was totally wrong either. They where guilty of attempted murder. and there was every reason to believe if allowed to live and go free they would pursue Ellie with the intetion of collecting her brain because they are true beliviers this was the only way. and lets face it Joel was in no way able to ensure those fireflies would go to prison and thus be unable to comit more crime. You might be right Ellie's Mum was not infected on purpose. If it was accidental then I'm supprised Ellie was allowed to live given the chance she could have been born infected and just waiting like the mum to turn. If it was really accidetal and they where unaware of her imunity until the biting in the mall then it makes even less sence that they would not try to gather some data first before brain harvesting. If it was deliberate there is a greater chance of more Ellie's out there. cos you probably would not have just infected one pregnant mother.
  7. I get what you are saying but from what I saw Joel's actions where justified because the Firefly Scientis really where skipping essential data gathering and risking everything on a very slim chance of success. The government may have had a better chance of using Ellie to find a cure. Joel's actions are justified inspite of his reasons for his actions. The fireflies may have beleived they could save the human race the show really suggested for them that was a pipedream. If I was running Evil Imoral post appolatiptic experiments limited I would want as much data as I could before I destroyed experimental material that took over 14 years to make. For a start I would have infected the mother very differently. that was a risky as hell for no sensible reason. Put fungus Zombie in a cage, stick Mum's arm or leg in the cage to be bitten. then there is much less chance of zombie fungus killing Mum before she gives birth or killing babe if a Mother in the late stages of Labour fails to kill zombie fungus. I'd probably do this before Mum goes into Labour and then give her a C section. getting the timing just right if going for a natural birth has got to be hard. If this works as a reliable way to provide immunity in the child then this could potentially be a cure for future generations. (although halfing them and women get only one child.) You would also need to know if the child could then pass on the protection to their children. Gee you have Ellie who is technically old enough to bear children. - if only you don't cut her brain out first. I'd also want to know if a fully turned zombie fungus Mum could give birth to a immune child. guess this would involve strapping Zombie Mum down and artifiifal insemination. not sure you'd get volunteers do it naturally. If that works then you won't need to kill off healthy Mum's to make immune children and you could start a breading program. Its not a cure as such since this does not help those allready born. but could provide a future for humanity if a vaccine can't be developed. Please don't judge me by this, remember I said "If I was running Evil Imoral post appolatiptic experiments limited". I'd also be very glad I would not make good breading stock.
  8. yeah. but just think about winning the honour of posting the last post that officially kills TTTNE! I mean I have the honour of starting it. Although TTTNE actuually exists in Gen Chat now under a different name and the Gen chatters have not noticed
  9. Hello thread. Hello lonely spammers. I'm surprised you two are still perserving. Page 48 this threadlet is in danger of being completed this year! Edit - Congrats on your reviews Bucky
  10. Look can I just say it is entirely plausible that Indy could survive an Nuke by hiding in a fridge. you all forget one important detail. Indy had drunk from the holy grail. Although this does mean he should not have aged since - but that's the same problem with Vampires on TV/film Immortal beings age when you put them in front of cameras.
  11. I would not want to emasculate you and make you feel week.
  12. As there has already been a request to keep this more on the topic of Andrew Tate. I have started a Harry and Megan thread.
  13. TTTNE is not allowed to die while Its a threadlet I started. somehow this would not supprise me. How are you not really spammers? Spring has sprung here, the daffs are all in full bloom and my cherries are starting to bud.
  14. hello and happy new year everyone. I hope you are all doing ok. I feel there is a good chance that for most of the world the worst of COVID will be over by the end of the year. that is my Prediction. That does not mean things will be better for a while only that by December things will start to be looking better. Stay safe, Keep away from nutjobs. Breathe clean air and practice safe consenual hugging Also Play Pictionary and make me very very happy.
  15. I want the Pandemic to end first. and not because we take even longer to close this one out. But that really is wishful thinking.
  16. we normally don't eat the icing as its normally far too sweet. so yes put the cheese directly on the cake. It does sound very bizarre, I admit it. It sounds completely crazy https://www.thecourtyarddairy.co.uk/blog/fruitcake-paired-cheese-origins-history/
  17. its a sucky system. but the best that really can be done without hiring additional teachers to split them to either online or in person
  18. If you are a fan of cheese, then you should try eating said Xmas cake with a slice of cheese. Something like Cheddar. - This is traditional in parts of the UK. and according to my family the only way fruit cake should be eaten. Yes it sounds freaky weird.
