HUBRIS - my word of the week.

1. Introduced 'hubris' to my Year 10 English students - beginning study of the play 'Frankenstein'...
2. Yesterday SMH referred to NSW premier's hubris...
3. Now 'hubris' connected with Europe and climate change.
Yes teenagers, it's a current word... https://t.co/IOy2yBc6WM pic.twitter.com/G9V00ONis7
"HUBRIS has been one of the defining features of Australia’s response to the pandemic, time and again over-estimating our capabilities and under-estimating the level of risk posed by the virus." https://t.co/zos4xOriJb

There she goes again: “other states have been in & out of lockdown”. Somehow NSW is better at the moment because despite the scale of this lockdown- 222 people in hospital, 200+cases daily, this will be our * only one. 🤷♀️#Hubris
