Being on Planet Earth (in the best of circumstances) means/has always meant having to take a very deep breath before walking out the door of a morning - because Earth is such a scary planet to live on at the best of times.

A major part of that being because so many people are incredibly selfish idiots who don't care about anyone else's safety. 

If I had my way anti-vaxxers would have to go and live in a commune away from the sensible people, our planet would then be a lot safer for the rest of us.

Just because someone may be wary of a new vaccine, rushed though with limited testing... doesn't make them an anti-vaxxer!

This is true.

But it doesn't apply to the OP - who most definitely is an anti-vaxxer:

I will never have any vaccines - for anything - ever anyway.

Ain't that the truth?

No - it just makes them/us cynical enough to be wary of other peoples egos and/or lack of knowledge.

Thankfully - amongst the conventionally-minded/take the Government etc word for it are those of us that are intelligent enough/independent-minded enough that we are "questioners" by definition. Thankfully - my friendship circle includes quite a few independent-minded "questioners" and we make up our own minds for ourselves and don't automatically follow the Government etc narrative they are trying to push on us. So - yep...I can certainly see why some people use the term "sheeple" and have come to appreciate they do have a point there - when I formerly wondered what they meant.

Proud to think for myself. Proud I do know a noticeable number of other people that think for themselves.

Clue as to where to find independent thinkers seems to be those of a more "hippyish" and or "vegan" inclination - to those that agree with me (but havent said anything to date - in case of trolls). Find the people that think for themselves generally - and you will find those that are questioning/want the evidence and don't automatically "believe and obey" just because TPTB want us all to. I've learnt where to find the other questioners and there are quite a lot of us - thankfully.

 Cerwiden - you're not being independently minded - you're riding the tin hat brigade of nonsense.  Reference your post about your mobile where you keep it in a tin foil bag AND a Faraday cage inside your handbag - and it's switched off!

Don't have a Smartphone. But I wouldnt do so if I did. Quite frankly - I don't believe we'd be able to hang onto our privacy (whatever the Government says).

So I'll stick to my basic text/calls only phone and double up on privacy by keeping it switched off unless I actually intend to use it. Belt and braces too - it's in an aluminium ziplock pouch and that is within a Faraday cage type little bag within my handbag.

As for vaccines:

Having a questioning mind is a great thing.  Using for both sides of an argument as important as vaccination is equally great.

As you are an OAP  you'll have been vaccinated as a baby / child / adolescent.  So not 'ever' after all.

Anyway - back to your vanity over a haircut.  Oh, let's not bother, it's just too stupid to even think about anymore.

  Too funny, from a woman who has been PPR's under several usernames already. Beats me that MSE Towers lack don't log your IP address and refuse any more identities originating from it. I guess you don't use TOR or something to hide your IP? Ceridwen/ moneystootighttomention/MoneySeeker1/ NewNameNextWeek - the old hands always recognise you within a post or two. We always will, because you don't change. Why not go do something more useful than s**t-stirring on a usually friendly and amiable forum?  You never know, you might enjoy yourself. Life is short; take up some interesting hobbies, go for walks in beautiful Wales, count your blessings and try not to dwell on petty little grievances.
