    I can so relate to all of this. . Sister is very "population control, vaccine bad"

    I said to him that if they wanted to reduce the population they would have just let Covid go full rein.

    According to our friend who mows both mine and her lawn it seems that she also buys into 5G is harmful/5G causes Covid theory. She will not let him use his phone on her property because it is dangerous.

    Don't tell her that Telstra is building a 5G network as do all the other phone carriers.

    They take after their dad, don't they? :)

    I've had my first jab. AZ. Wanted to wait for Pfizer or Moderna, but didn't want to risk waiting so long to get it. So far, so good. I think booster will be Moderna (after 2nd jab). At least up here in Qld it seems reasonably safe. NSW is a slow-motion disaster. Remember when SmuggyFromMarketing praised Gladbags for not locking down? Fun times!

    NO ONE is picking on Gladys. She's a LNP darling.

    They want to lift restrictions with 55% vaccinations? That's just fucking stupid and asking for something to happen.

    Isn’t that 55% first shot only?

    I think both shots but it might just be for NSW which is a stupid idea anyway

    The last time I checked Tasmania was leading for the most fully vaccinated and that was only about a day ago, we were only at 40% fully vaccinated, with ACT close behind.

    Gladdies has also called Smuggy an "evil bully".

    Because Murdoch and LNP. It's that simple. Plus NSW has the biggest electoral base for the feds.

    My anti-vax son, Adam, has moved out. I assume he has moved in with his girlfriend who told him she would break up with him if he got the jab.

    My youngest and son and I were left to clean up Adam’s bedroom. It seems that whenever Adam ‘clean’ it up himself he simply put all his rubbish in his cupboards or under his bed. I had to do four loads of washing, took out 22 water/soda bottles, throw out broken, useless things etc.

    He is a hoarder.

    I won’t ever allow him to move back in.

    Expect him back in, oooo, two months.

    Also, how would she know if he'd been jabbed or not?

    ^^^ He is not a good liar, that is how I caught him out when he said he had been jabbed and I knew he hadn’t.

    I have bought boxes from Officeworks which will be delivered today. I am putting his clothes and DVDs into them and putting my food stockpile and my jigsaw collection into his former room. If he comes back he will only be able to stay a night or two as a guest.

    I have enough food in my stockpile to do me and my youngest son about a month if we go into lockdown again.
