Watch out, a car's going to hit you!
“I don't believe it.”
Look, it's right there.
“You're exaggerating.”
No, you should move.
“I am free to stand where I want!”
But you'll be hit.
“I've been hit by cars before.”
Please move!
“Stop living in fear.”
I am afraid--that you'll be killed.
“We can't eliminate car crashes. We must learn to live with them.”
I beg... oops, too late.
“Please get me to a hospital.”
I can't--they're overcrowded with others who wouldn't step out of the way of cars.

To magnify the words of Cathy Cameron, North Balwyn, The Age - Shorts 2/1/2023
I repeat them here,
Next year, instead of fireworks let’s turn all lights off for one minute and we each light a candle for the planet and peace.

No fanfare. No glitzy, faux-patriotic background. Just masterful, powerful, moving communication.
Bravo Ukraine.

Our stories are everything. Why aren't saving them from vanishing?

Everyone has a stake in the national institutions, so why aren't we saving them?

How disgraceful of them (and how utterly disappointing). This will adversely impact the very people for whom they feign concern - "those most at risk, including older Australians, First Nations people, people with a disability, people in remote communities and people with underlying health conditions." Of course, there will be an up-side for the government in that there will be fewer COVID cases identified which means they can bury their heads in the sand and pretend it doesn't exist, and they can blame those "most at risk" people for their 'failure' to get a PCR test.
