The gang gang was listed as ENDANGERED after the Black Saturday bushfires of 2019. The population hasnt recovered to the point that even in their stronghold, ACT, they are becoming rarer and rarer.

From the bad product design dept: microwave oven has a black control panel with a shiny surface and dark grey lettering. Impossible to read when daylight is streaming in the nearby .

Aldi Spiced fruit buns will make some christofascists cross.
They are labelled 'hot cross buns' near easter to calm their tits. I bet Aldi still gets hate mail anyway.

My reflection on COVID-19 and the witch hunt against medical professionals like Dr. Fauci:
This was me in July 2020 at the local hospital, where I was working 15-hour shifts at night in the COVID ICU. I had just suited up to go into a room to hold an iPad in front of a dying patient so their family could say goodbye. Families were not allowed to come to the hospital to see their dying loved one, so we found a way to help them say goodbye. If you are cheering the attacks on Dr. Fauci, you are the worst kind of person and certainly no Christian.
I worked from late February to September of 2020 in that same COVID ICU. In early August 2020, I suffered a mental breakdown and was experiencing major anxiety and panic attacks. I had to leave my work at the hospital because it got so bad I could no longer function at the hospital. I sat in the office of the director of the chaplaincy program and cried. I felt I had failed them, the patients, and myself. Thankfully, after nearly 6 years of therapy, I am healing.
To hear people attack Dr. Fauci and our wonderful nurses, doctors, orderlies, CNAs, LPNs, respiratory techs, chaplains, medical examiners, funeral directors, embalming technicians, and others who put their own health and families in danger to help others is so disappointing and depressing. It puts me right back at the hospital in 2020 after Trump claimed it was all a hoax and the crowds of people who thanked us a month earlier were there protesting and spitting on us.
And yet, even knowing this would be the outcome of all our labor and our sacrifice, I have yet to meet one single medical professional who would not do it all over again. That is why they are called professionals. They care more about your life, the life of your family, and the lives in our communities than you do. They are the real patriots, the real warriors, and the real heroes.
We were looking at new refrigerators today and the salesman asked, What's the main thing you're looking for in a refrigerator?
I told him food, cold food, then I asked him if he really knew enough about refrigerators to be selling them.
Child killer RFK Jnr doesn't like being called out
I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.
Your periodic reminder to immerse yourself in the lithe, lilting musical stylings of 1990s Brazilian punk band, The Motherfuckers https://archive.org/details/Motherfuckers_The-Kings-Of-The-Beaches/media/user/SCRAPE/test/2015-08-the-motherfuckers/extracted/motherfuckers/07+Work+All+Day%2C+Fuck+All+Night.mp3
