just another thank you to the absolute champs who leave their homes every day (despite the risk we're all aware of and trying to avoid) to stock shelves, deliver, test, teach, care, and perform other jobs that keep society going.

I am disgusted by the numerous individuals who show up here and tell me to “just stay home” since I’m immunocompromised, so that they don’t have to have to deal with the mild inconvenience of wearing a fucking mask. It’s the mark of a person who has never faced a real challenge.

a girl on tik tok just said “I would rather adjust my life to your absence, than adjust my boundaries to accommodate your disrespect” and I think that a lot of people need to take that and really engrave it into their soul.

FUCK YEAH IF YOU DON'T WANT INTERNATIONAL ATTENTION ON YOUR COVID-INFESTED REFUGEE PRISON HOTEL WHERE YOU'VE KEPT OVER 40 MEN HOSTAGE FOR OVER 18 MONTHS AFTER 8 YEARS OF INCARCERATION ON PNG MAYBE DON'T PUT THE WORLD #1 TENNIS PLAYER THERE YOU FUCKING DICKS ALSO SET THEM FREE NOW

RT if you personally know someone with Covid right now.

RAT = $15-$20+ (single use) N95 = $5-$6 (potential multi-use with care) RAT = tells you if +ve (too late) N95 = helps protect you from getting +ve (preferred) Why are we focussing on RATs and not N95s for taking personal responsibility?

If people were going as nuts for N95 s as they are for RATS, we'd have the virus half beat.

If there is an exhausted employee sitting in an office in the Ministry of Health trying to procure rapid tests and PCR tests and then create a plan to distribute them quickly and fairly, how can we help you?

If you think the COVID case numbers re getting big, it’s safe to assume we’re also seeing massive under-reporting. The test positivity rate is approaching 20% and I’m seeing a lot of ppl walking away from the long line at one of the few open testing clinics in the area.

Bra shopping is like: Prominently displayed bra in 32b: your breasts will look adorablely festooned in my delicate colours Same bra in my size: YOUR VIKING ANCESTORS WOULD BE PROUD TO WEAR ME INTO BATTLE! AS A HELMET, IF NEED BE!

A Blessing For One Who Is Exhausted, by John O'Donahue When the rhythm of the heart becomes hectic,
Time takes on the strain until it breaks;
Then all the unattended stress falls in
On the mind like an endless, increasing weight.

Access to rapid antigen tests should not be determined by your income or your postcode. They must be free and accessible to all.

1/ Today here in Qld I have developed nasty #COVID symptoms: Sore throat, headache, sweating, coughing and shortness of breath. 5-6 days ago I was at a Xmas do with my wife’s family who had travelled up from NSW, leaving their 20yr old at home (who is now Omicron +). … cont
