"The sacrifice of bodies for the capitalist project was always going to catch up to us all eventually.

No one is safe until everyone is safe."

»Masking is not ‘living in fear’, it's being smart to avoid damage to your health from a deadly disease. It also protects others, which we should all be doing.«

Proposal streamlining – welcome changes!
Yesterday ARC opened #FutureFellowships apps & they’ve (finally) taken on board calls to significantly reduce length, complexity & duplication.
This similar to #LaureateFellowships, & hopefully #DECRA, but this 🧵 focusses on #FT24

What I love about Australia Broadcasting's "Coronacast" is the relaxing cadence of the Australian accent delivering the unpleasant truths we need to face: https://www.abc.net.au/listen/programs/coronacast/when-will-we-be-out-of-the-covid-pandemic-phase/102840156 Pitch.
