It's a Clusterfuck Morning!
The LAN is down so I'm using precious phone data to do my thing, so I shall be not present online until such time as the household interwebs is back to fully operational status.
Which means working solely on my laptop again, whee!
In the news this morning, Victoria has finally made mask-wearing mandatory. A move they should have done when the alleged "second wave" hit certain select suburbs. At least this has a passing chance of stopping the Karen Squad before they can cause some real damage.
Honestly, you'd get a smaller death toll from their actions if they'd been running around with an AK-47.
Speaking of Karens, the two plague vectors responsible for Queensland's panic stations have hit the trifecta of Just Bad Decisions. 1 - They were originally from Asia before they hit our sunny shores, thus giving fuel to all the racists who are going to attack anyone even slightly Asian-looking. 2 - They were in Melbourne to shoplift, and 3 - Potentially using their plague-lies to avoid the consequences of the law.
Way to go, ladies.

I wish they'd invent a cure for Firkin Stupid...
