  • While I guess it’s good the PM has acknowledged that maybe, possibly the vaccine roll-out is a race, it’s not like Min Hunt has planned for slow & incompetently. The feds remain the Sisyphus of vaccine roll-outs.

  • Every time I think it’s time to make the date input easier on my tveeder link generator an outbreak happens in Victoria and I dare not touch it. Conclusion it’s just gonna have to stay 2021-06-03 11:44 https://output.jsbin.com/nefuseq/

  • Why is #COVID19Vic trending when #COVic and #COVic19 are both available? Join the pundemic.

  • I have never been so excited to hear hold music as when I got through to the vaccination booking line about 30 minutes ago.

    Hearing the announcement to call back later can be dispiriting but keep trying 40-somethings. 1800 571 121 for the jab & a shorter telephone tree.

  • When the federal government says Job Keeper has served its purpose (either explicitly or in its actions), all I can think is the purpose was to determine the affect on their kind of people & their kind of voters.

  • For the #VictorianLockdown, here are the lyrics to the everything is shit song I sing when everything is shit:

    🎵Everything is shit
    🎵Everything is shit
    🎵Oooh, everything is shit
    (repeat)

    It’s sung to the tune of whatever the fuck you want. You do you.

  • Vaccine hotline already overloaded. Announcement sounds like it comes from Telstra rather than DHS.

  • Tick: Responsive Web Design has now been a thing for slightly over half my career. I can still remember building my first responsive site (desktop first, that’s how re rolled back then) shortly afterwards.

    Container queries will be the next big leap, I can’t wait.

  • Last night I dreamt I got my first AZ jab even though I’m not 50 enough to officially qualify. It was a good dream so I’m going to try my luck at a hub during the week. A long haul flight is riskier but doesn’t prevent C-19. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-05-23/under-50s-get-astrazeneca-vaccine-at-mass-hubs/100158348

  • I’m not a content strategist by any stretch of the imagination but if I was running the SBS Eurovision hub, I’d put the broadcast times clearly on the home page. Probably right at the top.
