Tennis player Novak Djokovic has left #Australia.
I see people grumbling about this, but the country should not make exceptions for people who are rich and famous. If they're going to require vaccination for entry, they should require it for everyone (with common sense exceptions for people with certain medical conditions).
I'm not saying either way whether Australia should have the requirement in the first place. That's rather immaterial here. Just because he's the world's leading professional tennis player does not mean he should be exempt from requirements that apply to everyone else.

I would really appreciate shares to get the message out of this. Also, please feel free to translate. I would love to have native Spanish speakers in particular involved as South America is predominantly Spanish-speaking. I know Brazil is Portuguese and one of the smaller northeast countries is English-speaking, but we just need diversity in general and I think having native speakers of other languages is one way to do that.
It's that time again. We are looking for regional judges for the Creative Commons Community Music Awards. Please let me know if you would be interested in taking a region.
The regions we have available are as follows (two regions are already taken):
#Canada
Rocky Mountain - ID, MT, WY, NV, UT, CO
Mid-West - ND, SD, NE, KS, MO, IA, MN, WI, IL, IN, MI, OH
Southwest - OK, TX, NM, AZ
Southeast - AR, LA, MS, AL, GA, FL, TN, SC, NC, KY, WV, VA, DC (if someone really wants to do Northeast with DC, sure, take it)
#Mexico, Central America, and Carribbean (we haven't decided if PR will be here or in US Southeast)
#Asia (minus Russia)
#Oceania (including #Australia)
#SouthAmerica
#Africa
In the future, we would love to break the regions up more, but having smaller regions this year has proved unmanageable. How much of that is due to covid? Who knows.
https://bdinls576.wordpress.com/2020/03/23/2022-cc-community-music-awards-regional-rules/ has been edited since yesterday.
I have been told in the past that once-a-day posts are fine but any more than that gets tiresome. I doubt I will post daily, but if I post about this too much, please let me know!

I guess I should be glad that #USA isn’t the only place where #anti-maskers rant and threaten. This one is in #Australia. https://nu.federati.net/url/273869
