And on the topic of concussion: three or more concussions add up to long-term cognitive problems, new study suggests - story from @donnadlu and me theguardian.com/sport/2023/j…

Three or more concussions add up to long-term cognitive problems, study suggests

Multiple concussions in a lifetime were shown to affect the ability to plan and pay attention, though research also underlined health benefits of playing sport

Ash Barty even knows how to retire perfectly. Probably just not that keen anymore and instead of growing bitter, she can happily call it a day on her own terms and still have a lifetime left to do whatever the fk she wants. Legend.

This was a huge Illawarra story at a nightclub that almost every Wollongong Uni student frequented on a Wednesday night (because there was a free bus after the Uni Bar closed).

I had my first piece of published writing appear in today's Review section of @australian - I reviewed The Employees by @OlgaRavn - an excellent science fiction novel. I hope I'll be doing some more writing this year.

My kids have hit peak competitiveness today - three of them arguing at length about whose conjunctivitis was worse when they were younger. Freedom Day is awesome, but I'm doing my 8.35am drinking when schools reopen.

And the main instigator of this, with thousands of followers on a FB page that had at least three posts claiming the boy was one of three ‘killed’ in the Yr 12 vaccine group, has taken them down but only because the ‘family are in mourning’. The comments are legit terrifying.

Turns out anti-vaxxers used the recent tragic death of a boy in Syd who had never been eligible for a Covid vax, let alone received a dose, to attempt to advance their cause. I have no words for how f***ed in the head someone would have to be to do this. Thinking of his family.

When Covid-19 lockdowns closed the border between the U.S. and Canada, they took Minnesota’s Northwest Angle with them. The solution? A 22-mile ice bridge through the Lake of the Woods. trib.al/k7NTRft
When the Pandemic Shut Its Roads, This Town Built a New One

When the Pandemic Shut Its Roads, This Town Built a New One

The Northwest Angle is blocked off from the rest of Minnesota by Canadian territory and a lake, so locals desperate for tourist income built a new 22-mile road across the lake.
