A 3601-post collection

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

Plague news: One new case, a local transmission. There's thirty-nine total active cases, thirty-three of those are in hospital. Australia's at 93% first vax, 88% fully vaxxed. Queensland's still roughly tied for last place in the vax race with 87.5% first vax, 79% fully vaxxed.

I have some ranting to do in Wordpress this week, and I may go off about conspiracy theories and how to disarm them. Either with "so you agree" or with "that's what they want you to think". I can't disarm all of them, but I can certainly erode some of them that way.

There has to be ways to twist --ist people out of their doublethink. Pity I'm not that great at think-twisting. I can at least try though.

In the news:

  • RBA warns home buyers to not buy. Housing bubble about to implode
  • Star announces his baby died
  • Some shitheel did a murder suicide after being caught out with a fake vaccine card. Stay classy
  • Once again trans sportspeople cause outrage by existing. Either get rid of gendered sports or have a third category for trans people
  • Queensland says hospitals can't accept donor orgains unless the donor's been fully vaxxed, antivaxxers go nuts claiming they won't be donors then, everyone else steps up to be donors. End result - more donors than ever
  • Australia changing its mind about Crypto
  • Hospitality businesses offering huge perks. Maybe make sure the customers don't treat them like shit?
  • Chinese rover finds mystery object on lunar surface. We'll see what it really is in 2-4 months. Calling it now, it's someone else's space junk
  • Android apps could be spying on you, check your permissions

Sigh. Onwards with my nonsense.

I woke up at 3AM because bullshit internal alarm clock issues. BUT I got more of my Koshdelia story put into words. I have two things from Tale Foundry to share at Patreon and ever more nonsense to put

Sunday, Day 0, Madness Soon

Plague News: Seven new cases, five local, two imports. Australia's at 92.8% first vax, 88% neat for fully vaxxed. Queensland's tied in last place for the race to 95%... for shame. We're at 87% first vax, 78% fully vaxxed.

Omicron's loose all over the world and I blame Capitalism and Selfishness. This is a disease that hits kids HARD and it's all because Humanity failed to unite and beat the first version over the head all over the world.

Experts are saying the symptoms of Omicron are "milder" but that's no true guide to how bad it is. I'm calling it now. Thousands of leaders are going to dismiss the potential threat of Omicron and then learn later on in the year that Long

The new variant, the direct result of first-world countried hoarding vaccinations, is now loose in the first world. Talk about reaping what you sow.

If only we'd done for the plague what we did for fucking smallpox. If only the orange canker sore hadn't decided his ego

Tuesday, Day 0, Patreon

Plague news: Five new cases, all imports. There's twelve total active cases, seven of those are in hospital. Australia's at 92% first vax, 86.8% fully vaxxed. Queensland's still second-last at 86% first vax, 76% fully vaxxed. It's looking like NSW will be the second to get to that precious >95% status. ACT was first.

I'm posting my bullshit on Patreon today, then working on Dungeon then farting about. Possibly a mix of Koshdelia and Satisfactory.

I'm having some fun with this.

The ACT is already at maximum capacity. NSW is gaining on that, with Victoria and Tasmania close behind. Next up are South Australia and the Northern Territory... with WA and Qld in last places.

In a few short minutes, I pack up Jolie and head

I have some Wordpress to summon words for and I may go on a bit about how little things can balloon outwards. Bits about what's missing in the module and what I've done to fill in the blanks. And what's happened as a result.
