PLNs

A 375-post collection

Thursday, Day 0, PLNs

Plague News: 1 589 new cases, all local. 6 368 total active cases, 93 of those are in hospital.

Vax News:

  • Australia's at 94.2% first vax,
  • 91.2% fully vaxxed
  • Queensland's at 90.5% first vax,
  • 86.2% fully vaxxed
  • Still tangled with WA at 91.0% first vax,
  • 83.5% fully vaxxed
  • Northern Territory is now last at 89.2% first vax,
  • 84.1% fully vaxxed

Everyone seems to have paused on getting the jabs and it looks like they're giving up on containing Omicron. I can only hope it doesn't kill me when it gets to me.

Today's pln will probably involve shopping for the Girl's Day Out, this Friday. BUT I also aim to do a little bit more dungeon map, and maybe try to find a better tutorial for ClipStudio. I think I'm getting a handle on WorldAnvil, but there's some things I must yet unriddle about it.

Baby steps. I refuse to let myself get frustrated out of doing the thing. Or my multitude of things.

In the news:

  • Doctors tell us to not give up on at least trying to slow the plague down
  • NSW cases now in five figures
  • NT feels the quake that hit Indonesia
  • People are still mining Nostradamus for predictions for next year
  • NOW the rapid tests are coming out 9_9
  • Elon Musk sets deadline to put someone on Mars
  • 40% of polled New Year's Resolutions include promises to go Greener

And now, the stories for the day.

At some point later today, I shall record a special Crimbolio message for Twitch. That way, I can do all my social media messages while Twitch gets the video.

Today, I shall be cleaning

Experts are saying the symptoms of Omicron are "milder" but that's no true guide to how bad it is. I'm calling it now. Thousands of leaders are going to dismiss the potential threat of Omicron and then learn later on in the year that Long
