On a happier note, all that sunshine is probably doing the protestors a world of good.

I love your writing but I think you lack nuance on this topic. I’m one of those myalgia afflicted women and I don’t think it’s purely a made up silly conceit. In fact I’ve researched and thought long and hard on this for 10 years (my chronic fatigue and pain condition onset after my Gardasil vaccination, interestingly). Mind-body is not the same thing as ‘in your head’, and while I agree that much of this bundles with a nervous disposition, I can’t agree that blanket hand waving and mockery is a helpful response.

They ought to be protesting that they're slowly dying from the shots.

Take some time off if you need it. It won't hurt us to wait.

What *has* happened to Germany? The powerhouse of Europe. The richest country in Europe. The most educated and advanced in Europe. Home to Beethoven and Goethe. Vorsprung durch technik (as they used to say in the adverts to ensure we Brits knew exactly how advanced the Germans were).

Seems to be even more of a basket case than the UK now and that's quite an achievement - no wonder they all need to lie down.

It is caused by the covid death shots.

I thought that was a joke at first. Lol. Lie down to protest being tired.

Maskers are suffering from a mental illness at this point.

In front of the Reichstag. How appropriate.

Congratulations on nearly escaping academia! I made a break as a result of the Nonsense, quitting both my university jobs... I flatly refused to accept the idea that universities were entitled to experiment on their students bodies, and tendered my resignation immediately that the mandates came into force.

I wrote to those in charge in an attempt to debate the issues and discovered "the decision was already made" - because nothing says 'university' like not letting the academic staff advise you on questions of knowledge(!). I am too young to retire, alas, but I have a consultancy business to fall back upon thankfully. I cannot imagine going back... but this leaves me worrying about what this process of distilling a heady brew of the worst collaborators will do to academia. Of course, I think we already have a fair idea now...

Anyway, best of luck making your escape!

More people are having health issues. Food, water, air, EMF, pharmaceuticals, toxins. Something is up. We are going to have to find out for ourselves. Health institutions have no intellectual curiosity and likely may be the source.

Look at those ladies! Healing themselves right in front of us with a big dose of Vitamin D!

Glad they'll be feeling better soon.

Tea doesn't cook itself you know.

What's interesting is that no one that did not get the death jab is suffering from "long covid"
