Hush. Don't tell Margaret VA are promoting it or there will be no airlines she can travel on.

Good business for the airlines.

I am sure some people use it as the best weekend to leave Sydney.

I remember the first days/health commercials on AIDS, now its the flu we have to worry about.

I hope everyone enjoys their Mardi Gras and have an amazing celebration!

Yep. The parade is this weekend. Wishing all who celebrate it a happy and safe Mardi Gras

Good old fashioned virtue signalling.

For last week when you book an uber the route (while tracking your car to arrive) is shown in rainbow too.

Yes, but most who attend the parade are straight, not gay.

Nothing wrong with a bit of colour to show support for people that for decades/since forever were marginalize, abused and discrminated against every day of the year.

Thankfully its not as bad these days but we, as a society, still have a ways to go.

Still more ...

My favourite charity, Every Little Bit Helps

They collect unused airline and hotel toiletries to package for people in need
