"Tasmania to make masks mandatory at events of 1,000 people or more." Tasmania hasn't had a single case in eighteen months. There hasn't been a single death in the state in longer than that. During that period, masks were never required anywhere outside of airports. This was never about the virus. (archive.is)

Heh, yeah. Thanks.

Honestly, just... Look after people in your own life better than I did. I think that would be something. Because you just... Never know when the tide is gonna swallow you up, or when you'll hit my limit.

Apparently mine is today, and realising there is no out of this. Australia is done, now. "Cooked", we would say.

I guess just try and stop that from happening in America or wherever you are. Because we couldn't stop it from happening here. There just... Wasn't enough of us who cared, I guess. :-( Or we didn't care enough.

Can you get to the outback? Bush country might be pushing it, but there's places kinda off the grid that's got to be at least semi-free.

You've figured out which state I'm probably in, yeah..?

There isn't really any outback, per se, here. But there's a fuck off massive wilderness out there, that yes, I am very much just... Considering wandering off into. I mean, it's... Vaguely like Alaska, but slightly less cold.

But yeah, I've been thinking about a little place called Queenstown, on the West Coast of island-that-I'm-not-going-to-name-directly. It's not like the Queenstown in NZ. This one is known as... A redneck, rough nut, tough kind of place. Mining town. Surrounded by literally dead wilderness, and dead rivers, because they killed it all with sulphur (unintentionally, lol). Effectively in the middle of nowhere. I can't imagine they'll stand for this shit, to the same extent, out there. Like, it's so tough that they have a gravel football oval, because the grass would not grow there (imagine tackling an opposition player on fucking bluemetal gravel, and you get the idea), so... Yeah.

There's a few others - Tullah, Rosebery, Fingal, a place called literally fucking "Savage River". I'm not quite sure how I would get there, or what I would do, but I suppose if I'm at the point of... Effectively blowing it all anyway, as society here crumbles, it's... Something, at least.

See that's the thing, though: Taswegians are meant to be tough, no-nonsense, "salt of the earth" type folks (except for the hippie drippy freaks, who are also everywhere, in the cities), and yet... We have this happening. Under a "conservative" government.

I just... Up is down and down is up, and I am really struggling to comprehend it all, these days. :-/

There's a decent-size mountain range remarkably close to where I am currently living (to dox myself even more). I suppose walking off into the bush up there might not be so bad. As long as society didn't figure out where I was. Because, see, this is not the kind of place where one can just wander off into the bush, at will, and not be chased down. For your own "safety". Even without having committed any sort of crime... They'll just hunt you down with their "rescue" choppers, and charge you with "lighting a fire in a nature reserve" or "walking off track and polluting the water catchment", or something...

Fuck man, I wish I was making any of this shit up, but I'm not. :-(

Parasites. Politicians are disgusting ticks to be picked off the body and popped.

Agreed. Very much agreed. Bizarre to think that I used to want to be one, to "make a real difference", or whatever... Even like, 4-5 years ago. Alarming... O_o

Side note: why is every online commentator from the US so... Manic? Lol..

Like, I'm trying to watch Elijah Shaffer and Sydney Watson's new video, today, and Elijah is just... Fucking all over the place. Which is saying something, coming from someone as scatterbrained as I am. Sydney seems like a voice of calmness and reason, by comparison...

Is that normal, in like, Texas? To just yell and rant and go off on a random angry tangent like that, like I do here, sometimes, I guess, in written form..? Or is that just him?

Because it's kind of alarming to watch, as an Australian. People here... Don't really do that so much, in my experience. Not in the same way, anyway...
