Wordpress Wednesday

A 146-post collection

Wednesday, Day 1, Wordpress

No new cases, so we have seventeen with the plague and only sixteen in hospital. Therefore, one got out as far as the hotel. Yay.

There shall be more of a Terrible Tiefling Tale, with all the bits and bobs and maybe even a footnote. We shall see.

In the news:

  • ScoMo's new budget reveal. Who wins? Who loses? Bet there's no solution to the debt problem we've got besides "give more money to rich people" which is no solution at all
  • Cyberattack shuts down US oil pipelines
  • Plague victim flies into Victoria from India, and paranoia about new restrictions abounds
  • Tough new restrictions for those on the dole, cracking down on those who are "not genuine" 9_9
  • Right underneath - tax cuts for the rich. I firkin called it
  • US idiot lets his pet tiger roam free. What a wanker
  • 14YO posted selfie from back of cop car after allegedly murdering a 13YO

Onwards I go with the rest of the nonsense.

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

One case that's an import, putting the total active cases up to eighteen. Seventeen of these good people are in hospital. Eesh.

In today's Wordpress, I shall be wringing more angst juice out of one snippet of my original bullet points.

Today promises to be extra fun because cyclone headache. I've taken my painkillers and an antihistamine, so I am sincerely hoping that that cuts down on the nonsense I'm dealing with. Bad air days suck, and I'm hoping to learn whether

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

Two new cases, both imports. Fifteen total cases, eleven in hospital. That leaves four chilling out in quarantine. I'm glad the numbers are going down. Whew.

Today, Wordpress will see more of One Tiefling and I get to bafflegab about my writing process based on the skeleton. Speaking of the skeleton - I fixed the link in the first episode to the actual skeleton [link provided for those who don't want to archive trawl] and I'll be providing it again for those

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

Two new cases, both imports. Which means that there's nine days without local transmission. Hoping to make it to twenty. Fifty-five total cases, twenty-three in hospital. I'm not saying those two fresh ones are the ones in a hotel, but the odds are in their favour in my humble opinion.

Today... I don't want to go off about anything, so it might as well be an exploration of how a pantser plots. I'm going to drag you through the entirety of my

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

TEN new cases, eight of those local transmissions. Seventy-eight total, sixty-four in hospital, two in ICU, which leaves twelve with the relative freedom of a hotel room until they are clear. Masks are mandatory for when you go anywhere and we are hunkering and bunkering and just being blobs for the interim.

Judging by the acceleration, we're going to be locked down for a lot longer than the three days. We've done this before and we can do it again. Of course,

Wednesday, Day 0, Wordpress

Two new cases, all captured in quarantine. There's thirty-five active cases, thirty-three in hospital and one in ICU... which leaves just one sufferer in relative comfort. Still scary beans.

This week marks the last installment of Destiny's Fools, which means next week is my time to go off about stuff for a bit of a while. Be warned.

In the news:

  • Concerns over the AstraZeneca vaccine causing problems are being ignored
  • ScoMo warns all of Aus about the PNG plague situation
  • Stonkloads

Wednesday, Day 0, Hiding

Five new cases, all imports in quarantine, and the active case count is up to 33. ALL of those people are in hospital. I am firmly under my rock. This is alarming. So too is the news that all these variants could be more trouble than the original plague.

I have coined a new word - Knomira. Pronounced 'no-me-rah'. It's a portmanteau of "know my rights" which is the catch-cry of every entitled arsehole regardless of age, creed, colour, or gender. Knomiras

Wednesday, Day 0, AAAAAAAAHHH

There's four new cases, taking the total count up to fourteen. All overseas, but I don't like double figures in the case count.

In personal news, I'm getting better at remembering all the self-maintains, just... not in order. I'll shave later, I swear.

My Death Cough (tm) seems to come and go no matter what I do. I did the turn on Max with meds and saline, but it was back yesterday afternoon. I took a dose of preventer and it's so

Wednesday, Day 1, Continuing

There's seven active cases and I have an increasing to go off about the state of things as they are and how it's hurting people or worse. BUT I also made a promise to finish posting Destiny's Fools and I am going to do that before I already have a rant.

Spoilers and TL:DR version - Privatisation Bad.

That aught to keep the need out of my blood stream for a little bit. Destiny's Fools is going to end sometime soonish

Wednesday, Day 1, Shenanigans

We're finally doing our tax nonsense so we can fill out the paperwork so Mayhem can get the help he needs to get a job and finally pay for things. [That lay in the house that Jack built] Puffpuff... Pantpant... I'm making sure I have my financial statements prepped. I don't believe anything's been overlooked.

I got up early, so that's two more pages in the journal transcribed. For my next trick, I shall post my wordpress nonsense before the alarm goes

Wednesday, Day 0, FLAKK

I woke up at Fuckoff AM again. Bleh. So I tried the brushes I got yesterday. I did practice on the paper towel like I said earlier. On the paper towel - lovely fine line and legible text. On the artisinal paper - BLOB MONSTER.

Flakk.

I'm getting a super fineliner today. Fuck this. All future ink blots will be artistic. Firkin artisinal paper mumblegrumble...

Today, there is one more case of the plague, taking the total of active cases to seven.
