Heading off to Blue Sky. Fighting with the RWNJs who infest this site only generates activity & free content for its insane owner. Stay well.

I knew a family in the 1970s with a son who had SSPE, a severely disabling & eventually fatal complication of measles. These peanuts have no idea of the horrors that virus can inflict on unvaccinated children.
I hope you know what happens when you get measles. Your politicians and all the other antivaxx ignoramuses don’t. It’s called immune amnesia. Look it up. Apparently the whole country has amnesia in regard to just about everything.

Yet again the media denigrates GPs with this image showing a bulkbilling GP clinic in a story about greedy surgeons & anaesthetists. It’s just ignorant & lazy @theage .

You’ve got to wonder whether the traditional model of democracy is fit for purpose in an age of voting for the most entertaining reality TV celebrity for shits & giggles.

I’m afraid there’s no point in Americans fleeing to Australia if Trump wins. We’ve got this bloke called Dutton, who’s much the same but with less charm & charisma.

Bless my British colleague who just let me know he’s visiting Australia for the first time & could I pop up from Melbourne to see him in Brisbane for a coffee? He was astonished that it’s more than an hour’s drive! 🙄

How’s this absolute flog limiting replies to those with whom he agrees. It’s no surprise he was the nation’s worst treasurer and killed off our car industry. Perennial loser @JoeHockey

Amusingly, Trump would fail McDonald’s pre-employment police check.

@AlboMP absolutely nailed it on #SpicksAndSpecks the other night. Can you imagine any other PM talking so knowledgeably about Ratcat, Regurgitator, The Smiths et al. The previous fool was hot for Tina Arena!

A patient told me today she sleeps in the faecal position. And I’m done for the week.

I’m not sure why I, as a simple householder, received 2 ballot papers for local council. Nothing in the enclosed material explains it. Sloppy. @electionsvic

You’re an irrelevant dinosaur, @JeffKennett , & a burden on society. Just. Shut. Up.

The electoral Act needs amending to prevent MPs who have been sacked by the electorate from reappearing as an unelected Senator. They’ve had their performance appraisal and failed!!
The racist Senator Henderson is paying back her Masters for saving her political career and giving her a Senate ticket by rail roading the Committee’s hearing to its predetermined conclusion.

Uh oh. @JohnPesutto has been endorsed by the inept & untalented Georgie Crozier as “a great leader”. He’s toast #LibSpill

Victorians have a right to feel aggrieved that their elected Liberal representatives are too busy punching on in court to do their jobs. @JohnPesutto @SouthwickMP @georgiecrozier @r_riordanmp all face well-deserved electoral annihilation. Simply appalling performers.

That revolting ghoul @georgiecrozier was salivating on the TV over scoring a political point from the death of a man yesterday. Just disgusting.

Hey @r_riordanmp How about doing your job on behalf of the disaffected voters of #polwarth & stop wasting our time with this pathetic little shitshow. You & your cronies are a disgrace.

Riordan, Battin, Guy, Tilley, Hodgett, Crewther, Hermans … pull your fucking heads in. I shouldn’t complain, but… You guys are the reasons “teals” are viable. Get back to economy, integrity, infrastructure, and good governance. theguardian.com/australia-ne…
