CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 24/06/2026You get used to it, houses are built for it, and we have a LOT of swimming pools in our backyards. 200 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 23/06/2026I reckon that is what it should be. My (UK) ancestors may not agree, but I'd rather reflect the original inhabitants in that top left corner, while still keeping the Federation Star as a symbol of our colonial past, and the Southern Cross as our geographic position. 000 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 28/05/2026The whole place is diverse - it’s a nation built of people from all over the world, but no we don’t celebrate anyone who thinks they might be better than everyone else. It’s very real. 200 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 28/05/2026Mate if you think that, you sure you should be coming here? It’s probably the most egalitarian culture on Earth - we’re pretty much all the same and don’t tolerate talk poppies. 220 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 28/05/2026Nah…… you need to practice saying fuck a lot…… and learn the nuances of “mate” coz you’ll come off as a complete knob if you don’t. 250 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 20/05/2026I presume you are like us (Oz), where the Governor General (the representative of The King for the Yanks listening) can dismiss a Government and call an election under certain circumstances where the country cannot be governed per law. 130 0

CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 19/04/2026A partnership, call it marriage, is the decision everyday to choose the person you are with. You change, they change, ideally you grow together and in support of each others goals… But never abuse or where the partnership is to the detriment of the parties. “It’s my life”…. 000 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 19/04/2026I think GenX’s (ie me) and late Boomers went through massive changes in technology that in turn altered social norms. All of this played on the normal human (or indeed any living organism) of wanting to”more and better”. 1/2 100 0

CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 04/02/2026There will always be those who are at the fringe's, and those who are easily led astray... However, they won't get enough numbers here, but yes they will win senate seats.... House of Reps - unlikely except for one of two places.. What we really need is for the opposition to get their sh*t together. 110 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 03/02/2026I should also mention, enrolment is done online. We have a national document verification service that has access to pretty much every Government database... 130 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 03/02/2026We (in Oz) need ID to enrol at 18 or when you become a citizen (which is compulsory), however you don't need ID when you vote (but they do look you up when you collect the ballots and cross you off as having voted, coz if you don't you will be fined). 340 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 03/02/2026We have mechanisms to ensure everyone can vote (pre-poll, overseas polling, postal). The culture is that everyone knows it is the societal RESPONSIBILITY to participate. One thing *I DO* wish we had, that you do, is longer fixed terms. 140 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 03/02/2026We (Australia) have mandatory voting (at all levels of Government). The reason for this is that it is the ONLY way to get a representative Government. Our elections are on a Saturday, and are a bit of a festival, there is no material queuing. 1/2 393 0

CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 15/12/2025Not many of us can remember being deported ;)..... We are typically considered a "compliant" society because we generally believe that "the rules" are there to protect everyone. Yes some of the rules are ridiculous, and a pain in the arse, but again - for the good of our society we comply. 020 0
CBR Jase @cbr-jase.bsky.social · 17/11/2025As an outside observer, I think WHEN your party next forms Government, it would be a wise investment in your population to create an actual public health system like the rest of the developed world. That will solve the issue once and for all. 010 0
