A comic that I will think about every day for the rest of my life, probably.

Put the parents in prison.

One. Both. I don't care.

On the phone to the aged pension people and the waiting music is something that wouldn't be out of place in a club on Ibiza.

Warning: I’m upgrading the proxmox cluster storage backend with 100GbE (from 10GbE) tonight/tomorrow…. And the server will go down for a short period.

One of my very few guilty pleasures, if I'm home in the afteroon, is to watch re-runs of the excellent #ER on #ABCEntertains channel.

I love watching it because it's a trip down memory lane, but most importantly I enjoy it because it has #subtitles.

I watched it last week. It was great.

I turned it on just now.

NO #SUBTITLES

I don't get it. It's discrimination.

I shall YET AGAIN email #ABCAustralia and explain how discrimination works.

Very pleased to hear you were ok with your fancy face mask...haha!

Fruit washing was allowed and still is, ha!

@fae2535

Oh, so I wasn't the only #COVIDNerd with a database, ha! I'm happy to hear that!

Wow, that app was useful. I hope you didn't end up positive after that blood bank visit. You're right, masks were really quite a late addition. I must say though, I didn't ever wash my groceries!

@fae2535

It was an interesting time to live through. I kept a database of stats for a very long time. Great that you were able to get out for such important appointments (& thanks for donating blood 🩸 )

Back when we had a run of 28 days without a new #COVID19 case in Victoria.

Them were the days.

I know I'm stating the bleeding obvious, but my god, mainstream news is so incredibly biased against all and any #Labor government.

Thank you.

I use this document so often to provide evidence to people or to confirm what I'm telling them. A priceless piece of work.

Thank you.

Russell Crowe on the telly, talking about the new film Nuremberg, in which he plays Goring.

Just caught him saying "you know, we have ANZAC day every year to remember these things..."

ANZAC day commemorates the Gallipoli landings in WW1.

@Daojoan

The kids are alright.

Phew.

#AISlop #AI

My 9 year old and his classmates have started using “that’s AI” to mean “I don’t believe you.”

Me: we’re having dinosaur meat for dinner

Kiddo: that’s AI

A resident of Washington State has died from H5N5, a variant of bird flu never before seen in humans.

First known case, first death.

Wear a mask, ideally a well fitted respirator like an N95.

RFK Jr has gutted the CDC.

There’s no plan to deal with another pandemic.

No one is coming to save you.

Masking is an act of resistance and radical community care.
