abigserve posted:China could attack any second!!!! Let's buy tanks and planes, quick!!! I think they developed that capability because a direct military confrontation with the US was out of the question and they needed some other means of pushing back against them. It’s been wildly successful though, they’ve bought the US to the brink of civil war simply by amplifying dumb conspiracy theories.

bobvonunheil posted:So one message that keeps doing the rounds with this whole WA/rest of Australia thing is the idea that actually, the east coast is fine, what are we worried about? I went to a wedding with 200 people and did all kinds of things over my summer break. I got covid at the wedding and I didn't feel unwell enough to justify chucking a sickie. It's fine. WA is a baby state for babies. freebooter posted:The only thing people in the eastern states can do that people in WA can't is travel interstate or overseas, but I wouldn't do that anyway - who wants to spend money on booking flights, hotels etc only to have to cancel it all at the last minute because oopsie you picked up COVID at the supermarket the other day. My mate is on his honeymoon in Fiji (he had covid start of Jan) it looks sick I'm jealous. Also on the food shortage thing if you go to the Vic or South Melbourne markets they're fully stocked because they're not beholden to knife's edge algorithmic supermarket fills.

Public is 98% masks and the stores are having persistent shortages of meat (I've been trying to get pork ribs all year), but other than that Canberra is basically back to normal

Child care has had a COVID case every day this week, in different rooms. Random meat is gone from the Coles - Chicken seems to be gone completely. Toilet paper is up and down, same with pain medication. No RATS for 2 weeks anywhere. Multiple local shops now empty and for Lease. The good news is, work has RATS if you do get marked as a close contact or feel unwell. And queues at the test sites are much reduced- down to 30 minutes usually and results within 48 hours. SOMEONE is getting RATS and doesn't need to get the swab test done so it's lowering the pressure there.

I think your attitude to kfc depends on whether or not you live in the superior state of Queensland, where we have access to hot and spicy as a year round permanent menu item (and nobody ever loving eats original recipe.) I had the opportunity to try red rooster fried chicken for the first time recently and I’d rate it a big step up from KFC original and a moderate step down from KFC hot and spicy.
