@matigo I'm hoping it doesn't get to that too. What angers me more is the fact we've all basically been self isolating and doing the right thing to flatten the curve and we're slowly getting back to a new normal and this is likely to ruin all that progress.
@matigo Apparently it’s partly to do with the police brutality against Indigenous Australians. But it’s also sharing outrage over what happened in America.
@matigo It was a Black Lives Matter protest. 30,000 people. All crammed into one city square … it's ridiculous. We couldn't do anything for Anzac Day except for paying respects in our driveways. This is where the second wave will start, I just know it.
Also, it's not a long weekend for us. Our Queen's Birthday long weekend is in October.
If these protests cause us to go back to stage one restrictions, I will be fucking pissed off. I’ve spent the last 3 months confined to two sets of four walls and I’m done. I want to get out and these protests aren’t helping.
So I've decided to take a leaf out of @phoneboy's book and start this whole intermittent fasting thing. I actually started yesterday - it's a two week challenge although I'm treating it more as an experiment to see if it will work. Tonight is a 20-hour fast … between 5pm today and 1pm tomorrow. The rest of the fasts are 16-hours, which I can live with. Wish me luck!
@sumudu yep! I'm having so much fun with it. I've also bought some courses on game design and 3D modelling too so that should be interesting.
I'm loving this course. I've learnt a fair bit so far and I'm only 15% through. Lots more to learn.
@matigo Restrictions for us have eased a little. We can now go for picnics, go for drives within a 50km radius. People seem to be still flouting the rules though. Classic case was on the Gold Coast - that park has now been closed as a result. Why don't people get that we're all in the same situation here, we all want things to get back to "normal". These flouters are ruining it for everyone else, I bet they don't care either.
@matigo Yep, I finally become the true programming nerd I've always wanted to be lol
