Got a hair cut for the first time in 7 months. Went to meet my partner in a shopping centre and she didn't recognise me and got confused when I said hi to her. #iso #quarantinecuts

Accidentally scared a magpie that lives out the front of my house. I am now living in fear of being swooped by it every time I leave the house... #Australia #Melbourne #itsswoopingseason #magpies #imafriendtothelocalbirds

#YZ20 Tea Break current discussion - How will the second spike of COVID-19 being framed as young people's fault effect an entire generation's mental health? Why isn't that narrative being challenged in the media or by politicians?

I'm watching Boris address parliament right now. Its been 30 seconds and he's already speaking nonsense. The British public have not been protecting the NHS. They've been going to the beach and going to the pub. The government has also done sweet fuck all. 1/

Stop bullshitting. Please for the love of all that is good. For all my friends and family who are vulnerable to this disease of which I have many. Stay home and take #covid seriously. Make the right decisions not the ones that you think will keep your job safe. @BorisJohnson
Enough bullshit. Make some tough decisions. Protect those most vulnerable. Support those who are homeless, disabled, young, old, BAME communities, women. You know what's bad for economies? Everyone getting ill and dying. God I'm so mad. Stop blaming yp, brown people etc. 2/
It's beautiful, sunny and warm in Melbourne but I haven't left the house for two days because if I do, pollen will cause my body to puff my eyes up so I can't see and block up my nose and throat. Love springtime in Melbourne. #hayfever #allergies #fml #atleastiminlockdown

People. Please listen to doctors and health experts. Your 30 seconds of YouTube research and strong passion for not wearing masks is not as valid as the opinions of people who have dedicated their lives to studying diseases, medicine etc.

There is no conspiracy here. I've had family and friends catch COVID. On respirators barely getting through. Many people not making it through. This is not a hoax or joke. Stay in. Stay apart. Wear a mask.

My partner says I have goofy dad vibes. I don't even have kids and I'm exhibiting key signs of embarrassing dad.

Date night has really changed in lockdown.
Ending my work week being told that I have a "special energy" from some young people I work with. It made my week. Please tell people you know nice things about them. It really can make a bug difference to someones day! #KindnessMatters #kindwords #youth

Never again. 75 years ago the world’s first atomic bombing took place in Hiroshima, Japan, killing hundreds of thousands of people, causing endless pain. Reiko, a survivor of the bombing, warns us today that the nuclear threat is not gone. We need a #NuclearBan

Our colleagues @LebaneseRedCross are on the ground responding after a large explosion occurred in #Beruit last night, so far killing at least 10 people and seriously injuring many more. Our thoughts are with them at this terrible time.
🚨Beirut Port Explosion🚨: 75 Lebanese Red Cross ambulances along with 375 EMTs and staff are currently responding in #Beirut and helping the most vulnerable. Lightly wounded persons are being treated in our stations.

Hey internet. Keen to talk about #racism with #BIPOC #POC #BAME communities. Question - what is the first experience of racism that you can recall experiencing? Feel free to RT/quote me.
