We have laws , but very reluctant to enforce them .. What may cost votes makes those decisions.
If it's compulsory to be tested , enforce it.

We make sure we lock up Murderers and Rapists.    They are only breaking the law , the same as people taking / in posession, of illegal drugs.
Or refusing to be tested ( if it was law )

Strive not to be easily peeved, is good advice. Being bugged by things is a double whammy. You have to put up with whatever is bugging you, and also suffer from your own discontent. As they say in the mafia movies, "don't worry about it".

A very big debate is Euthanasia.     
Of course, no one wants open slather on such a delicate subject but I also think I should have the right to end the cruel, slow agonising and torturous
smothering , That goes with airways diseases.

I also see staff forcing fluids / foodstuffs into half conscious palliative care patients , as if it si an achievement.        . Removing life support includes all interference with passing away with dignity.
Induced Coma and remove suffering from the time of dying.

Those who don't believe in Euthanasia , have never been a part of the dying process.
All of the If's & But's are relevant , but those required protections are another story.

Who needs euthanasia when you have COVID herd immunity?

The virus is certainly not for the aged or infirm.

This family History seems to be about 2 years .   The West being forewarned , escaped Sars 1 , Mers & Ebols .
Evident that congested areas of people sre not in the best interest.
Probably why the high population of migrant areas in Melbourne are getting hit.
Same for the USA . Larger City residential have crammed living areas.

Who are you referring to when you say "my" "mind", Max.
Deep stuff. Big smile

On topic, one thing that bugs me is the phony spirituality industry, which is all navel gazing, self-affirming tosh. LOL

Shortest read ever stayer---    He did leave himself open.

    Everything displeases me now days ..     Money isnt any good anymore .

Won't be around long enough to spend it.       A blonde no good for similar reasons , ( I'll keep it clean ) or Horlicks will displease me further.    
I still wouldn't be dead for quids.

The real "spiritual" people aren't selling books and videos, about the subject, but have retired into their cave, alone.

Lots of things bug me these days . The first of my family arrived here with the 2nd Fleet. They were from the lowest rank of British society and had been oppressed , displaced and exploited all their lives. When they arrived here , for various reasons, they didn’t sit down and whine but saw the opportunities and got of their butts and made a life for themselves .And in the process built a country. It bugs me a lot that I’m supposed to be ashamed of them. I’m actually quite proud . It bugs me that 200+ years later people enjoying all the privileges of the country that they built blame them for the decisions and actions of their oppressors ( The British establishment) . The vast majority of the British people had no political power at all at the time and certainly didn’t benefit financially from the British Empire . The exact opposite in reality. Above all I’m annoyed by people who think the way to fight racism is to be racists themselves. White people are bad and black people are victims is not only ridiculous but racist in the extreme and hugely damaging.

Ah, but they are the world's way of teaching you something, about yourself. The key thing, is to understand why they "piss you off". When you arrive at that understanding, you won't be that "pissed off". The man that really annoys you, and you have the option of ignoring, but don't, is really quite a teacher, he is exhibiting behaviour you disown, in yourself, but nevertheless still have, in unexpressed impulses.

Well put Baguette ...     Shameful when you see the lack of appreciation by the priveliged migrants since WW2 ,    Trying to preach the failings of the very people who assured the world had some peace , after the Hitlers of this world, got their just deserts.

It pizzes me off when the mighty USA is the target of the People they actually saved from extinction.     Plus the Brave Poms who bravely held their ground until their unprepared allies,   Got their act together.

I am with Baguette here.   My ancestors came , one lot as convicts, and the other lot as free settlers.  Neither lot had it easy, but they worked and helped build this country.
And I am fed up hearing how bad they were and how we must say sorry.
Sorry for what ?  My family didnt do anything  wrong.  They settled here and built this country into a wonderful place, and they started with scrub and black fellas, and very liitle else.
Now it is a wonderful place, those who do nothing but whine want it back, in spite of very little contribution to making it this way.
