Today’s @TheNewDailyAu column: a suggestion that we go back to government-built quarantine stations and vaccine factories. They seemed to work till they were closed or sold in the 80s and 90s.

Leonard also had a comment on the budget:
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes

This behaviour is abusive, sexist, and disgraceful. It’s a sign of a very small man who instantly reverts to attempts to silence and embarrass a woman. How does he get away with it?

In a world where the government is the employer of last resort, anyone who wants a job has a job. Interesting concept. https://t.co/Xktb7vPpQf

2.7 million people either lost their jobs or lost hours of work in April. The unemployment rate doesn't capture the scale of COVID's effect on jobs. New post by @mattcowgill and @brendancoates https://t.co/Nq7B732vfz

When abusive men punch a wall, destroy your things, or blame you for their behavior, what they are saying is, I can hurt you, I can take from you, and I can make you believe it’s your fault.

$244/week is not enough to live off. If this pandemic has taught us anything, it's that any one of us could end up needing to depend on Newstart at some point.

We might never know what the unemployment figure really is but anyone who thinks it's under 10% is delusional https://t.co/b6kcV6Zmnm

Taiwan has managed the Covid-19 outbreak well, recording just 429 cases and six deaths. And it has done so without shutting down economic and social life. It shows there is another, far less authoritarian way to tackle a pandemic, says Stephen J Roberts

Before sharing anti-Chinese sentiment think very carefully about the kind of behaviour you are encouraging and whether that is something you want to be a part of. We can do better than this Australia.

Though I’ve done it heaps, I now acknowledge ending arguments by correcting spelling or grammar—unless the argument’s about those things—is a low way of shaming folks who lack educational privilege, are from ESL backgrounds and/or have disabilities, let’s stop doing it, thank’s.

According to Wikipedia, marine mammals are aquatic mammals that rely on the ocean for their existence. Sounds about right.
