Victoria is still getting 200+ cases per day, compared to a dozen or less for the rest of Oz. Schools go back to remote learning, except for the final 2 years of high school...

We got 15,000. Fif fucking teen fucking thousand. One day. But hey, only 100 died today! That's good, right?

I'm truly living through that Chinese "interesting times" curse.

Mrs. Lak says this is all inevitable because we're moving into Aquarian time from the Piscean Era. A paradigm shift out of The Ego. Who am I to disagree? Could be. You can't prove it ain't so.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.

That daily total in Florida is about double the total number of cases in Oz since this thing began...

The UK government stopped publishing figures on the number of tests and confirmed cases 3 weeks ago. Their reason for this was because reasons.

Sydney has a small outbreak. Increasing each day. Are we about to see a repeat of Melbourne? I bet the NSW government is feeling nervous about right now.

They'll just blame some notional security guards, warehouse staff, shop assistants, or the general public for going to the beach. That seems to be the pattern atm.

I don't care about the freedom protesters. People will drink poison together. They'll throw venomous snakes at each other. What's swapping some invisible virus arround?

Astrology is complete and utter bunkum - but I'm a Pisces, so I would say that.

You are doing an important job. Australia. If you have a huge problem now with the starting cold season, we know there will most likely be a second huge wave in Europe when autumn sets in.

Well if you believe that. It depends on our lords and masters surely.
