Had my Covid booster today. Maskless Nurse asks, “Have you had Covid in the last 6 months?” I tell her I’ve never had it & that’s why I wear a mask. She expresses surprise then says that Covid is crazy again & maybe masks should be required for a few months each year. 😤

Mr B went to a funeral today for a 102 year old lady. Her bridesmaid was there and she is 103. Bless.

I'm relieved of the burden of trying to persuade others, for I finally realized that the only thing that can change someone's point of view is an adverse experience.

Today’s task will be to fix this fence panel that was kicked in from the back sometime last night. This is the third time it’s happened because people seem to have trouble walking 10 metres to the vacant block next door where they can walk through unimpeded. Morons.

So is the @albomp.bsky.social government serious about climate change action or as seems more likely just talking weasel words and bullshit while approving fossil fuel projects that will end up that Australia actually criminally increases world emissions overall??

I used to be a rusted-on Labor voter but for the last two elections I’ve voted for an Independent in the HOR and for the Greens in the Senate. Today’s Woodside abomination has further galvanised my determination to never ever vote for Labor again.

It continues to astound me why real farmers and rural people still vote for the Nats.
