Post a perfect album from the 90’s that isn’t Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice In Chains

Hey leftists, it’s ok to discuss disagreements about strategy, but if you say people who take COVID precautions: - are too scared to leave the house - demand that everyone wear a mask 24/7 - are terrified of a just a "cold" You are using far right anti-science talking points.

It's been a while! I haven't had my PC for close to 6 months as I was living in temp digs, and then I moved into my tiny home. It's been wonderful and a lot all at once. I'm still unpacking and settling in, but loving being off grid and away from other humans! #tinytidbits

Living in fascism is a lot more ridiculous than I thought it would be. Like these people in charge are objectively silly and I resent having to take them seriously.

Looking for temp accommodation whilst I have my tiny home built. Within 90 mins of Naarm/Melb as we have regular medical and vet appointments. If you know of any options for up to 6 months please reach out. Or please share, the more eyes on this the better the outcome! Thanks in advance.

It is so outrageously ableist to say we should ban masks & stop people from protecting their health & the health of those around you. COVID is still spreading. People are still dying from COVID. Millions of people are struggling with #LongCOVID. And COVID is just one of many reasons to mask

After my FB being vanquished over 6 months ago, I magically got an email yesterday saying oopsies. Despite this message, I in fact had no way to appeal. There are no ways to appeal when FB decides to delete 20 years of stuff. No idea why it suddenly appeared again.

A new study confirms what so many already know: being dismissed by doctors can be as traumatic as illness itself. Patients report four kinds of harm: shame, lost trust, delayed diagnosis, avoiding care. This is what I tried to name in The Invisible Kingdom: www.mycentraljersey.com/story/news/h...

If a tourist picks up a wombat, we riot. But when a mining company wipes out a koala habitat, poisons the water, and buries the last few under rubble, we shrug, call it ‘progress,’ and name a highway after them.

I default with sounding like an arsehole. "Thanks for your unsolicited medical advice, I've got a team of medical folk who I'm sure are well placed to advise me". Even if I don't have a team. Coz fuck that. I'm sorry you're having to deal with it too.
