Sure it could be shut down, but Australia would then find the US less co-operative on other fronts. Australians are pragmatic about it. We know we need allies.

define lucky. We have the land and resources to be entirley self sufficent in most industries, as well as dominating international trade. We also have a unique military advantage of being an entire unified waterbound continent. But the full saying finished with something about our leaders squandering this "luck". which is absolutely true. Instead of leveraging our land and resources to produce goods, eliminating overilianc eon improtation and dominating international trade, we just export our raw resources for bottom dollar for the short term financinal and political gain of indivduals. An oversimplification of course, but i dont feel like writing an essay on the nuances.

From reading many of the comments it seems that the system is fucked.

Yeah I got a call from the police once asking if I'd opened X, Y and Z bank accounts last year. Turns out someone stole my mail, even though I check it every day. Sadly didn't get to keep the money. (They didn't steal anything from me minus my name to open a few accounts)

This is where I really do get angry with the ALP. This is clearly bad policy designed to appease the CFMEU. Meanwhile they're perfectly happy to allow the SDA to absolutely shaft retail workers with yet another round of dodgy EBAs in exchange for donations from the Supermarket Duopoly.

i say labouring but i really don’t mind what type of labour work i do. what interest me most is what impact id have in it.

1d276je

No chance id tell his boss about it unless i knew for sure he was suicidal, I’ve heard plenty of people use it as a way to express how shit the day is it work without actually wanting to do it. Just have a chat to him or ask if he wants to go for a beer and you’ll get a better picture of the situation

I mean it was simple decades ago. Use the raw materials to make shit. High tech shit. Instead of exporting it for nothing. Renewable industry? Green steel. Steel is massively energy intensive to produce. Build absolutely massive solar farms, use the raw materials here to build Green steel, export it. Heck, if the government hasn't fucked everyone decades ago by selling off energy generation to the private industry, we could tempt manufacturing here by offering hugely discounted power pricing. Never happened because of party politics. Decades of liberal scare campaign, ads showing the poor miners losing their jobs. Basically, the tech exists to make the switch, thermal storage works great for overnight power. But the rich and powerful have easy access to politicians, so much so that the opposition leader took a flight across the country to spend 3 hours at a party with the human parasite known as Gina. So we never got any traction in making these changes. I was saying 15 years ago that if we don't start moving away from coal at a reasonable rate now, we will be forced to do it later at a much more painful rate. I was not alone in this. Instead, voters decided to keep voting in the guys who were beholden to those making money off coal. So, here we are. Reap what you sew I guess? That or we just double down and hasten the planet becoming unable to sustain human life. Actually with how fucking dumb we are as a species, maybe that's not such a bad idea.

I hate how much media attention Dutton gets considering how little substance he actually has to add to any given debate...

We need to have some way of discriminating between actual anti semitism aka nazis and anti israel/Zionism or pro Palestinian speech. From the river to the sea should not be criminalised but something like "murder all jews" should be

Bit off topic, but it will be really interesting to see the proposed boundaries for NSW; the eastern half of metro Sydney is set to lose one or maybe two seats, and I'm curious as to which side of the harbour this will take place. I don't think it's feasible for a cross-harbour seat to be created, so I think North Sydney (especially as it's one of the federation seats) and Sydney aren't going anywhere. I think if one of the northern seats will disappear, the one which makes most geographical sense will be Warringah. Mackellar can't move north of the Hawkesbury as it will be non-contiguous, so I think it will become a thinner, beach-oriented seat. Bradfield, Bennelong, and North Sydney could be pushed east; the latter could feasibly cross Middle Harbour in a similar manner as the state seat of Manly. Then again, the AEC wants to retain Aboriginal place names when possible, which complicates things yet again. As a side note, I dislike the practice of non-geographical names for electoral divisions (even though in this case, Warringah is a geographical name). I'm no advocate for the American numerical system, and I do recognise that geographical names can sometimes [be]( [unneccesarily]( [specific]( however using the geographical centre of the seat (as the NSWEC does) leads to fewer absurdities; Lake George, for instance, existed within the seat of Werriwa for only a decade, and Warringah possibly moving north to replace Mackellar while no longer covering Middle Harbour just creates another pointless quirk. If it's on the south side of the harbour, then I think it will be messier. Wentworth is another 1901 seat, so I could see its boundaries moving south. Alternatively, Sydney could theoretically be split between Wentworth and Grayndler (it is oddly enough the newest of the three), but I don't think that would please anyone. I can't imagine the AEC removing Albanese's seat either. Possibly Barton could be partitioned? Also interested to see what will happen in the Hunter. Labor seems intent on shoring up Hunter at the expense of Paterson (demographics trending away from the party in both) by drawing in Maitland and cutting out the Upper Hunter, but the geographical constraints of Port Stephens and Lake Macquarie could well lead to an arragement that would make an Illinois mapmaker blush.

I have NEVER had an issue returning shit to Bunnings. And I've returned alot of stuff. I bought a $600 canopy cover, that ripped to pieces after two years. They didn't give a shit. I dropped off the scraps and they refunded .

1d5j03x

Once bins are on the curb it’s legal to put stuff in them. So just wait for bin night to do it.

Feels good as a Victorian that the federal government of NSW spends my tax money on shit like this instead of giving any of it back for infrastructure.

So was it the job of the Labor party when they were in opposition to approve of the liberals policies?

1d3d6tk

You sound a lot like me. I too thought I had insomnia. Turns out I have Delayed Phase Sleep Disorder, which is a Circadian rhythm disorder (i.e your body clock). For most people their Circadian rhythm makes them feel sleepy around 8-10pm and then rouses them awake around 5-7am. Mine thinks the hours for sleeping are between 4am and midday. So I have trouble falling asleep until near morning no matter how exhausted I am, and even if I do manage to get enough sleep I feel like crap until lunchtime.

Last day to sign Aus petition for consumer rights of digital software (Stop Killing Games). The petition is located here. This whole thing is mostly being run by Ross Scott of Accursed Farms. [ Figured it would be good to post this final reminder to Aussies before it gets closed. If you have experienced having your favourite game servers shut down (even for single player games that companies decide to disable access to for no good reason), it's worth taking a moment to sign this. This applies to more than just games and includes other digital software as well. Thank you.

Typical nonsense from Greg Jericho. No one was claiming that a wage price spiral caused our current inflation crisis, the actions of the RBA and commentary about it was in order to prevent a wage price from occurring. Now it seems like the RBA was largely successful in avoiding that outcome (although wages are contributing to the stickiness of services inflation), Jericho claims this as vindication. It’s like the morons who claimed GFC stimulus payments were a waste of money because we didn’t have a recession in Australia. Unable (or unwilling) to understand counterfactuals or when policy actions were successful in meeting their aims.

Interesting that it says Labor could lose Robertson; it’d be the first time since 1980 that it backed a candidate from the Opposition party. Minority government is probably the most likely outcome for the next election. Labor probably aren’t in much danger of losing the election outright, but you’d have to think they’ll need to concede a few things to stay in power.

I’m in Sydney and there’s quite a difference in the walkability and public transport of different areas here. But you’d definitely find a bunch of areas that’d fit all your criteria! Feel free to message me if you’d like (although I’m not as knowledgeable as most locals)

Why do you keep lying? I have sent you document after document explaining exactly what is meant by a dispatch interval and you just keep pushing the same lie. Who are you trying to fool?

Wtf 7$ muffin and 1$ to heat up haha. The owner is living life hahaha

Yes! Just like they're building new housing. I'll believe it when I see the evidence on my bills.

With any luck we will see labor gone for decades. We will see the public service bought to heel with lots of managers and director generals gone. This endless reshuffle of government departments all gone, the paper pushing bureaucrats retrained to do stuff like fix our roads. Large numbers of laws and regulations repealed. Local government's pulled into line. It is really amazing how bad Queensland has got under Labor. Highest taxing Qld state government in history and the infrastructure is just falling down. Where the hell is the money going? The government is absolutely rolling in it, yet the debt is predicted to head to $188 billion, and that is the labor treasurer's prediction.

1czdtt4

What the hell are home owners doing down there? Whether they know it or not, they’ve got the government by the balls, flex it. There’d be a mutiny in Sydney if our government tried any of that crap.

given that im betting the main demographic effected by this law is children and young adults, that seems a bit much. that's more jail time than you get for groping, for example.

Not uncommon and not good enough.

Just got abused by someone through the lift glass for not holding the lift and I feel guilty, but it wasn't my fault. I didn't see her approaching and by the time she was at the door, the doors had locked shut and the lift had begun to go down.

It's true that types of B12 supplements have cyanide in them, they are very low dose so pretty hard to over do it.

I bought a Gondwana coat from Anaconda a few years back and it still looks fairly new. Just make sure you go there on a sale or they are rather overpriced. Alternatively, get "club" membership.

There’s still lots of money out there being spent and it’s pushing up inflation. I work in sales, we distribute composite decking, cladding and screening through trade hardware stores. Generally speaking cladding goes on new builds while decking is mostly for the renovations/add on market. Usually the colder months are slow, with cladding holding sales together, while summers the decking really takes off (people are short sighted, they only want to put in decks when it gets warm and realise they don’t have one, or their existing one is falling apart). We had a bit of a slow start this year, but this month we are getting ‘summer’ level of sales, both in decking and cladding, which is something that none of us really expected. Cladding would make sense because builds happen year round, but people are spending big on renovations as well, which isn’t what you’d expect during a cost of living crisis. As much as I’d love to say this is because I’m an amazing sales rep, every other state is pushing similar numbers, with sales at 120% of budget coming into the end of financial year. I’ve got friends that work for our competitors and they are also seeing the same results. There may be a cost of living crisis somewhere, but it sure as shit isn’t everywhere, and we expect even more money pumped into the economy come early August as that’s bonus/commission season for anyone in sales and corporate, as well as tax return season.

Headline: BUDGET FALLS FLAT Article: Labor extends lead, Albanese’s approval increases, and he extends his already big lead over Dutton as preferred prime minister. This is not journalism. This is propaganda.

I am surprised our Oligarchs don't have enough money to pay a PR firm to come up with a more believable story . The idea that workers need our Corporate Overlords to protect us from greedy Unions is a bit out of date.

I just went through this with my tenant who wants to break the lease on 10 days notice. The tenant was good and I was hoping he would stay long term. I wasn’t going to increase the rent on his 1st renewal. Anyway he’s leaving a few months before his 12 month contract. I had to option to charge him the leasing and advertising fee. I choose not to charge this but I will hold him to paying the rent until I find someone else. I won’t be picky about the new tenant as long as they have a job and reasonable rental history just like I would for any tenant. Single mothers no problems. Even in a rental crisis It does take time to find a tenant. Just most people who want to rent a place will want to move in after 2 to 4 weeks (gives them time to exit their current living arrangement). I’ve always found the winter months are harder to find a tenant as most people start their lease at the end of or start of the year. If an employer who gave you a 12 month contract, suddenly cut it short, would you not want to be compensated for the time you don’t have a job. Sure you could find another job quickly but you wouldn’t accept just any job would you?
