So I'm currently living at my mums at the moment, and my mum being a mum listens to like mum radio, right?

Which if you're not familiar with BBC Radio too, it's mum radio.

They play old songs and they play like new songs which are deemed sanitary enough for mums, like country music or whatever.

Now, there's a radio show on in the afternoons called Jeremy Vine, which is a British talk

radio show hosted by the eponymous Jeremy Vine, where he just has, like, I've encountered

this before, but I've never been exposed to it on such a, like, long timeline.

And he just has, like, absolutely deranged phone ins, which, of course, at the moment are

even more deranged than normal.

Like he was inviting joggers and dog walkers to phone into his show and argue with each other

over who should give who more space on the pavement as part of social distancing.

Dog walkers were phoning in to complain that they had been breathed heavily on by joggers who were running past.

It's all like deeply normal.

But then yesterday or the day before, he had some expert on and they were talking about basically how we're running out of ventilators.

And at some point, doctors might have to start

deciding whose lives to save, right? And so then he goes like, well, one method that has been put

forward is that we should save the lives of the people who are the most useful. Like if, you know,

if someone's a doctor, we should save their life first. And he's like, but now we're getting

to the point where a hospital cleaner is looking more useful than a chief executive.

And then there was just this really long pause, as I imagined all the suburban

mums slowly becoming Maoists.

Suburban mums hold up half the sky.

Yeah, exactly.
