This is a damning indictment of health policy in Australia.

In 5 months, with no #covid19 deaths to blame it on, 3500 excess deaths occurred.

These were predominantly allocated to cancer, dementia and "other" causes.

This is a major scandal. pic.twitter.com/pMQmoYahG5

Oopsie. Funny how something like this was an obvious consequence, but that we were told would “not happen.” I’d expect non-pandemic-related excess deaths to continue in Australia and New Zealand for another 20-30 years as a result of the trauma of lockdown(s).

Put another way: for all intensive human purposes, the sky in fact IS the limit https://t.co/oL8RPgxet6

For now. The future is very long, and many things thought impossible have proven to be less so over time. I can find newspaper articles easily from the early 1900s discussing the “fact” that airplanes were worthless toys and would never be used by anyone other than rich hotshots with more money than sense.

Everyone can look smart predicting the failure of something that has never been done. I’d expect better from Nils, but a lot of left-leaning people have a bizarre hatred of anything to do with space.

Modern liberals are absolutely fucking gleeful over what they will be forced to take away from you:

They love talking about it, love thinking about it, adore knowing that it’ll hurt you and make the world worse. Quite a change from what liberalism used to be, and as I’ve noted many times before it has nothing to do with climate change. Not really. That’s just a pretext. It could be anything as long as it allows them to be the scolding puritans they’ve always wished they could be, and who get to decide what you’re not good enough to deserve.

We should be expanding people’s ability to travel, not decreasing it, while making the technology better and cleaner. These doofuses of course don’t even really care about making the world better; they’d be advocating taking away things from people no matter what because it gives them a thrill.

Speaking of this, on Friday after 5PM a woman at work dropped something on me that she needed by Monday morning. It’d take between 3-5 hours of work.

I told her I’d get to it Monday morning, if I had time. She was pissed. But the fucks I do not give are limitless. Someone else’s poor planning is not my emergency. She’ll live.
