38-weeks pregnant & told she can’t rest on a park bench during the 1-hour per day she’s allowed out of the house. Victoria’s draconian lockdown is bordering on insane.

Victoria Police tackling the scourge of grannies on park benches. Not at all heavy handed...she deserved to have her phone snatched away. I feel so much safer now!

QUELLE SURPRISE: "The man in his 20s who was called Australia's youngest COVID-19 victim was suspected by senior health officials to have died from another cause, possibly a drug overdose, at the time Premier Daniel Andrews publicly linked his death to the coronavirus."
Seeing what places like Australia, Canada, and New Zealand are doing makes me glad that I live in rural America. Nobody around here gives a shit anymore, and no one is going to throw a fit about someone walking outside without a mask. The city I go to school in is a quite a bit stricter, but at least you can’t get arrested for sitting on a bench.
I'm in NYC and there is a major divide depending on what neighborhood you live in. You go to bleeding heart liberal hipsterville people will bug out if you don't have a mask on, run away from you etc.
The place where native New Yorkers live are just basically "fuck it," at this point. Businesses will do the mask stuff just so they don't get shut down, but otherwise no one cares. The rules are all being stretched. There's restaurants that are doing indoor dining for the people they know and bars are running on the downlow.
The return of speakeasies. It really is the '20s.
crazy isnt it... not looking forward to the 30s hahaha
