The Australian Medical Association (AMA) was among other experts calling for more onerous restrictions, such as lockdowns, to be implemented again to avoid a new surge of cases.

“Turn on, tune in, drop out.” Timothy Leary, Doper

Yeah that’s right...Play alone all day on your devices. Don’t have any human contact whatsoever. Sit in your basement and collect your government checks.

Covid will make you a better person.

Hey leftists, your fear porn quota is way low. Get working. We’re gonna need lots and lots more fear porn if you even think of imagine that we’re gonna put up with your proven worthless crap. But keep trying, so that we can lower our bottomless limit perceptions of your ability to do anything correctly.

I know a guy that used to hang with Leary.
He looks like Saruman from LotR.

Well, on the bright side, I’m a hermit who hates being around people, so this order wouldn’t bother me much if I was an Australian.

Peripherally related: I’m called for Jury Duty over December and January.. Was just informed that we are required to wear TWO masks while in the courthouse: “one KN95 and one KF 94 mask”.
Didn’t say what order they must be in. Guess I’ll find out when / if I actually get to the courthouse.

RE: “Turn on, tune in, drop out.” Timothy Leary, Doper
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

He, of course, was a terrible influence on many people. I saw him lecture once in person (not as a fan) at my university.
Hunter S Thompson loathed him and said he knew Leary was an informant for the FBI and CIA, including framing people.

Excellent and well written book The Most Dangerous Man in America: Timothy Leary, Richard Nixon and the Hunt for the Fugitive King of LSD
by Bill Minutaglio and Steven L. Davis (2018) details the battle between the two, each of whom was quoted as saying the title phrase against the other. I doubt Leary will have one fan left after this book. One passage: At a minimum security prison Leary worked out for weeks and practiced and then escaped using a high cable over the yard, pulling himself hand over hand. In the middle he changed his mind and wondered why he had started, but the fall would have killed him. He got away and was free. Cops lost track of him.

Thompson quote on Leary:
“But their loss and failure is ours too. What Leary took down with him was the central illusion of a whole life-style that he helped create... a generation of permanent cripples, failed seekers, who never understood the essential old-mystic fallacy of the Acid Culture: the desperate assumption that somebody... or at least some force - is tending the light at the end of the tunnel.”

I had to look up Saruman. He’d make a good Merlin.

Just think what Leary would look like if he was still kickin’.

Christopher Lee, an actual SpecOps Nazi hunter.

When a director was attempting to tell him how to imagine what killing a man is like, he said I don’t have to imagine.

So, is it now 12 feet (6' x 2) of social distancing, 36 feet (62), or just some other made up number by Branch Covidians that has no relation to Non-Faucian science?

Avoiding people is generally a good idea.

I guess those so-called “vaccines” aren’t working as advertised.
