From a photo in that article. Going for that Thomas Sewell white nationalist look.

Thomas Sewell and Thomas Sewell. Not really, just wannabes who happen to be highly armed police complete with shitty moustaches.

Seeing as they only ever come out in the most miserable weather, fog and rain, perhaps it is to see each other? No idea really, just guessing. Very elusive, but when they come out, the whole scenery changes. It was a magical experience that i'd tried to see for 30 years before it finally happened.

Is it because he was embarrassed last year by wearing the wrong shirt? Is it some kind of poorly thought out dogwhistle? Is it some weird Trumpian way of just being a dick to people as to steal the headlines for day so the media won't focus on ON & LNP for a split second? Bizarre stuff

I have a couple of Spotted Bowerbirds (i think) hanging around the garden and backyard, and I finally figured out it was them that were mimicking so many other bird species. I've heard them do Restless Flycatchers, Wagtails, Kites, Miners, Butcher Birds, Magpies, Apostlebirds etc. Fascinating.

Trying to guess at what kind of things to put into an SU-580 form for centrelink. I have no idea what I am doing. It's crazy that my job provider has zero knowledge either. I know they aren't centrelink but when pushing us into sole trader work, they should have some background on this stuff.

I could say that the banning of surcharges on cards is pretty good too, but don't go pretending that it will save "working Australians" (I hate that term) x amount of dollars every year, customers will still be slugged the money, just invisibly now.

How is this helping productivity at all? No problems are solved. All it does is bounce people from one chatbot to another. The rise of A.I is such a farce. I'm sure there is good usage for it with physics and astronomy, but it's use in business is shithouse for the end customer. Fuck A.I.

Having problems with my energy provider. Chat to us the icon says. The "us" in that sentence is a chatbot. So far so shit. The chatbot can't help at all, so it offers up the contact us section to fill out and send an email. Great. Guess what replies to the email? Yes! Another unhelpful chatbot.

Funny how he's always downplaying the chance of cost-of-living relief when I thought we were supposed to understand it's their number one focus, and always has been.

I always hear the words " We're focused on relieving cost of living pressures" or words to that effect from Labor. Be as focused as you like Labor, but unless you are actually doing something other than rearranging the deck chairs, it's just doublespeak that amounts to next to nothing.

Pretty much. What happens when you have done all this and still can barely survive? How do expect people to keep quiet then? By just dying? Yep.

It's not that hard to imagine a future now, where if you aren't standing for the national anthem or performing your nationalism to a certain standard, along comes an autonomous drone to take you out. I liked it when these ideas were science fiction.

That's so cute. All my cats seem to grow out of watching tv at about a year old or so. I find it fascinating that some cats still enjoy it after that age. The thing that still catches their eye sometimes is I have my PC connected up to my TV so they see my wireless mouse pointer moving.

I despise the change from standard to daylight saving time and back again every year. I'll never understand why we can't just move the hour ahead permanently and be done with it.

I hear ya. I never experienced full blown acne as a teenager, but getting a big and sore white headed pimple on my face is as common now as it was then. Although they used to be more common on my neck and back, they mainly stay on my face these days when they decide to appear.

NSW seeks to join Queensland in defence of ban on 'from the river to the sea'

Penry Buckley

The NSW government has sought leave to join the Queensland government in a high court case brought by pro-Palestine protesters against laws banning the contested phrases “from the river to the sea" and "globalise the intifada".

A spokesperson for the NSW attorney-general, Michael Daley, confirmed that the government had sought to be a party to the case alongside the Queensland government, but declined to comment further. High court listings show the attorney general filed leave to intervene in the case last week.
