I initially thought it was a straightforward anagram but I can't make anything of it

Tangential involving exactly the same direction. (10)
Okay, so this theory probably breaks a few of the normal rules:
Direction - informs us that the previous words "exactly the same" is an instruction to follow.
Answer therefore is tangential.

... or so the Daily Express* would have you believe: End of the world warning as Earth's insides are cooling faster than scientists thought | Science | News | Express.co.uk[^]
Don't you just love "science journalism" from people who only know the buzzwords? 
* For non-UKians, the Daily Express is not a "news paper": it's an "immigrants will kill you all in your beds once they've finished lowering your house price paper". If it's not the end of the world it's something you eat / drink / wear / smell / drive / see that causes cancer.

You mean what I was being told to worry about in high school might be true after all?!

People are figuring out that global warming is a hoax, at least from the perspective it's being sold to the gullible, so the fear mongers need to find another pitch to scare the populace into giving up more of their liberties.

I would suggest that you delete this message as it's likely to be taken as anti-GW trolling.
Just a thought.

Now this is a turn into direction of soapbox. Is it ok to post here something about Novak Đoković also?
Of course with a lot of *) comment

I've been carefully avoiding mentioning him!

I didn't realize Serbian could be transliterated from its Cyrillic using Đ, which I thought was only an Icelandic character.

I think the Sami languages have it too.

Don’t forget Global Dimming.
It has nothing to do with the average IQ of the planet!
There was an interesting documentary on what happened to the average temperatures when every commercial flight in the world was grounded for days.
We need those clouds!

Heh,
It's trending on the Ycombinator news front page[^].
Looks like someone else discovered the unusual properties of the high-dimensional sphere packing geometry I mentioned last year.
A high-dimensional sphere spilling out of a high-dimensional cube despite exponentially many constraints[^]
Here are the atoms IBM imaged[^]. You are actually looking at the perimeter of the outer electron shell.
If the singularity at our galactic center contains particles (that move in higher dimensions) packed at the maximum density then their field lines are extending out past the Schwarzschild radius. You don't need dark matter, singularities build some kind of structure/field.
I discovered this strange geometry years ago. I also mentioned this last year[^] here on codeproject. The question is whether or not this represents anything in our physical world. 
Best Wishes,
-David Delaune

The second response there is just talking about the difficulties in using our human minds and intuition to comprehend distance and properties in higher dimensions. It's actually relevant to what we are discussing here, but completely irrelevant to the question being asked on stackexchange.
For the question being asked on that site, the first and third answers are good answers.
He is right though.

Finally the 'rona caught up with me.
Been sick as a dog over the weekend.
The irony is, that I caught a cold (negative) the same day the family came home from Germany, so we self quarantined just in case.
The only time I left the house before getting sick for real was for my pre booked booster shot.

You have my deepest sympathies. ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
How are you feeling now?
When did you have the booster?
