If only we treated others with more empathy and compassion:

Victoria‘s shameful response to true stories from the front line of the fight against Covid, news.com.au.

A young man stood up in front of all of Victoria and spoke bravely about a deeply personal experience. What followed was disgusting.

Imagine for a second how daunting it would be to stand up in front of Victoria’s press gallery and tell your harrowing story about being infected with Covid-19, knowing that perfect strangers will use the footage to spread dangerous misinformation and label you a liar and a paid actor.

That is what happened this week to a young man suffering the harrowing effects of long Covid — symptoms that turned him from a world-class college athlete into a shadow of his former self and left him unable to get out of bed months after contracting the virus.

Will, who spoke genuinely and with good intentions beside the Premier Daniel Andrews this week, has since been subjected to the most vile comments by conspiracy theorists and anti-vaxxers who still, 20 months into the pandemic, find new reasons to believe Covid-19 is harmless.
...
Michelle, who is the ICU nursing unit manager at the Royal Melbourne Hospital, was targeted a day earlier when the Andrews government wheeled her out to share horrifying anecdotes from the front line of the fight against Covid.

Get on the beers.

I'm all for a drink, but I'm dead surprised one of the conditions of opening up public events might be that they are either completely dry or light beer only like the MCG public areas.

...which begs the question, are they there to enjoy the Melbourne Cup, or create an excuse to get on the turps and get shizen faced? I suspect my question is rhetorical.

We're going off in tangents but "Earth Versus the Flying saucers" should get a look in

I don't use twitter much, but I've just spent 10 minutes doing searches and advanced searches on the wikileaks twitter account, and found nothing. Do you have a link that takes you to the actual quote / tweet ?

No Paul.  A COVID-denier posted the link in response to a warning about a contact site on one of our local community pages.  The post was deleted after some forthright comments.  It seemed genuine - I don't know how hard it is to fake a twitter post - and was written in typical Assange-speak.

Hmm. If you've followed the story of what's been happening with Julian, how he's been treated, his physical and mental health etc., you may understand my skepticism.

Ecuador must've got sick of the bills.  ;D
