Think of the Children
by C. M. Weller
We’re just protecting the children
It’s what we’re all aboutWe have to think of the children

We scream and rave and fussBut we never mention the children

- Victoria refuses to learn from NSW's mistakes
- Kim Jong-un has lost weight
and looks like a model - Anti-vaxxers outraged by plans to only allow the vaxed to do commerce. This is what happens when you don't participate in social contracts, Knomiras
- But don't worry, the Delta variant is gonna get 'em. Maybe some will survive to learn something for a change
- NAB changes to JAB in an effort to promote the vaccine
- Health official disagrees with NSW's plan to open up
- Muppet claims he was at Ground Zero when 911 happened. Where's your asbestosis, then? Everyone who was actually on the ground at 911 got asbestosis
- Creepazoid tried to abduct a woman at a dentists' office, she alerted the staff and they did the right thing
- 9YO's idea to make the world sparklier takes off in a good way
And now... storytime.
