1d5f2t8 | Reminds me of Max Gawn talking about he’s not your regular AFL private school kid and took a while to acclimatise to the AFL. The man went to one of the best schools in the state | 0 |
1cwrwmv | I would be happy if the entire aid budget is used to better Australia’s political goals. If it can help people at the same time, perfect. But while we’re in a domestic housing crisis and with in high levels of immigration, Australia is doing more than its fair share of global philanthropy. | 1 |
1cql8oq | I'm not sure the international labour laws intend this kind of specific cuntery, but ok.
Also, the threatening people on site, that's ok too?
Can't wait for the CFMEU to feel sufficiently emboldened to return to making people disappear to get their way, so anti-intellectual PINOs can clap at the 'justice' of it. | 0 |
1d37g9y | Sorry to hear about your child. You should talk to the surgeon, not a bunch of random strangers on Reddit. It will depend on the structure that the surgeon has set up including hospital access and their priority for such things. Children usually get a high priority but it will come down the the medical team and hospital administration. It would be better if you can access a children's hospital in Australia. | 0 |
1d3wwhk | I had a presale code, and I had the same issue, it allowed me in the queue and then kicked me out multiple times, my daughter and I tried for over an hour. Then when they went public, the same thing happened. I emailed tiketek and got a basic response, even when I responded with how will you rectify this?
I'm lucky I didn't really want to go but my daughter did | 0 |
1czmt8g | I don't understand why all the comments are about the u16 ban when the article is about the clearly better over 65 ban? | 0 |
1d0onj5 | Both are vast countries with many different communities. A rural Utah resident probably doesn't have the same social life as someone in NYC. Same thing here. Sydney's night-life ends notoriously early. | 0 |
1d3k6b7 | Mega drive, approx 2425km ( 27hrs) with many stops along the way, you will only see 90% rural farms, cows & lotsa road kill, n small towns inbetween getting there, on arrival you will sleep for days lol. Good luck. Your better off jumping on a flight, 3.5hrs. The city of cairns itself doesn't feature a beach so if you're looking to escape to a typical beach location with sandy shores sprinkled with palm trees and swimming areas you'll need to head north to one of Cairns' Northern Beaches. Cairns is very asian tourist spot, expensive with smaller shopping district. | 1 |
1d3rdud | Shit. Christ isn't back is he? | 0 |
1cxv5kt | Angus Taylor is shockingly bad, period.
Do you ever see him in Question Time? He gets his arse handed to him every single time he opens his mouth. The bloke is the dumbest politician going right now behind Sussan Ley. | 0 |
1d5al5g | My husband and I got married at the registry office with about 30 people in attendance. We then held a lunch 'reception' of sorts at Tazio (7min wall from the Old Treasury Building) and had the whole first floor to ourselves. Room hire free, just paid for food and drinks. Best day of our lives. | 1 |
1d59lcc | I’m lucky because I’m with aami | 1 |
1d46uzr | Thankyou so much for your comment, yes I agree alot that there is alot of pressure on new grad nurses to choose the "right" hospital. I guess I need to remind myself to keep an open mind as well! | 1 |

1d0vfvd | Blue Mountains are very scenic. If you're wanting to actually see the Great Ocean Road you'll need a night or two travelling on it. Ballarat and Sovereign Hill and the Gold museum could be worth a day. | 1 |
1czbjox | Yeah, I avoid licenced venues here in large part because of the shit closing times. They're not where the parties are at anyway so nbd.
I do think part of it is a lot of Aussies don’t seem to able to handle their drink, at least compared to Europeans. I really don’t know why it is. Maybe even genetic or something? Or they KNOW the club is gonna shut at 3 so they go too hard too early. If you’re in say Berlin and you know you’re not leaving that club for 2 more days, then ofc you’ll be pacing yourself. They don’t pace here. | 0 |
1d36j3j | John Howard deserves to be pissed on. | 0 |
1d3xmly | I’ve followed my barber to two different shops, I get extremely anxious about hair cuts and since I’ve found him it’s been a lot easier, he’s really chill and we talk about nerdy stuff and have a great time.
There’s no way I would “stick” with a shop if he left it, I spent six months looking for him at his first move because it was to stressful to find a new barber, the second time he dropped heavy hints and to follow his Instagram to find out more. | 1 |
1d4s8jw | They're called clouds | 0 |
1d5jc09 | Grew up in the tropical north. Melbourne winter really isn’t that bad. Was even sat in the sun earlier today enjoying the warmth without having to think about sunburn.
Also, this absolutely is not a gendered thing. Melbourne just isn’t cold enough for a lot of people to have to bundle up. | 1 |
1d59lcc | Luckier than many others, that's for sure | 1 |
1cx2znc | Yeah it blew out to 3x what it was budgeted for. Who wouldve thought giving people free cash to reovate their house would dry up resources for new builds... | 0 |

1d0s2gm | I wonder if drunken sex at parties mutually engaged in is including in “sexual violence” stats. It would explain a lot. | 0 |
1d3bx0j | Six admissions in the last twelve months baby!
I was so happy with the care provided to me over the last year. Nursing staff are at their worst not bad and many are absolutely bloody amazing. The unit manager on level 1 is a legend. I have been seeing my doctor there as an outpatient for years but had a few second opinions from other psychiatrists there and all of them were respectful, thoughtful and really took me seriously which I appreciated. Please feel free to PM if you have any specific questions! | 1 |

1d0met9 | We had one of the guys from the band Redgum (the late Hugh McDonald RIP) play at our wedding. My brother knew him a bit and asked him. He was lovely and played a selection of folk songs, we had a bush wedding so it was perfect. | 1 |
1d1s7yi | It takes 1.6 units of electrical energy to produce 1 unit of hydrogen energy. That's simple chemistry and it can't be changed anymore than you can change the fact that if you set fire to wood you will get hear and light. But then you have to spend more energy refrigerating the hydrogen, and it's so cold it embrittles the pipes etc which have to be frequently replaced, it leaks and so on.
In the Space Shuttle programme, only 55% of the liquid hydrogen was actually burned in the rocket engines - the rest was lost in transit, evapourated in storage and so on. 12.6% was lost simply transferring it from a tanker truck to a storage tank.
[
So then you are in effect spending 1.6 x 1/0.55 = 2.91 units of energy to get 1 unit of useful hydrogen. Of course, we might suppose that we are going to be more efficient and effective than an agency which has half a century of experience handling liquid hydrogen and has spent billions of dollars trying to make it more efficient and effective, but this seems unlikely.
This only works if we have some massive surplus of renewable electricity which we have no other use for, so that we don't care that most of it is wasted in the process. Given that fossil fuels are still being used for about 2/3rds of the country's electricity, this seems unlikely to happen in the near future.
At the moment, the "green hydrogen" movement is simply a way for mining companies to squeeze more money from the public revenue. If it's genuinely useful it doesn't need subsidies. If it needs subsidies it's not useful. | 0 |

1d3bok9 | This is not my area, so correct me if I am wrong, but you’re not a mental health professional if you have completed a cert 4 are you? I don’t mean that to be rude, I just mean to point out that you might literally be applying for the wrong kind of jobs and you may need to adjust your expectations. Don’t you need a degree, minimum, but usually a Masters or Honours degree, to work as a ‘mental health professional?’ | 0 |

1d40tzt | Heard one on a podcast that was extremely funny. It’s not real, as in the hosts didn’t actually believe it, and more of a misunderstanding they riffed on but:
electricity isn’t real. It can’t work like how the scientists say it does in real life, it needs extra intervention and direction from “someone or something”. Otherwise the electricity wouldn’t flow in the neat circuits it does and would get lost. There’s “elec-trickery” afoot.
Maybe there’s actually a shady world government spy agency who’s in charge of all electricity flows. Maybe it has a will of its own. Maybe there’s some omnipotent figure guiding all electricity. Either way, there’s something “they” aren’t telling us and all is not what it seems.
It’s not a real conspiracy but it’s stuck with me and makes me laugh every time I think about it. | 0 |
1d0pw2n | Enough that I forbade myself from buying any new perfume this year. I usually allow myself one high end bottle at a time, but I think I spent about $1000 last year. I have a box of sample sets and testers.
Cost-wise its not that bad if I count it as a hobby rather than cosmetics, but I'll be sad if any of it spoils and I have to throw it out before enjoying it. | 1 |

1d36p9f | Ehh... Most of these towns already have semi-decent services, it's more so the occasional specialist visit and lack of shops that catches people out. With that being said, all of that comes with an increase in population though.
I've lived in Moranbah earning peanuts on a graduate income and it's honestly nowhere near as bad as you're making it out to be. The rent's expensive for what it is but these days doesn't come close to that of living in the city. Food costs the same as it does in Mackay being that Coles is the main supermarket. Add on top of that the median household income is at least 50% higher than the state average...
That said, I'd NEVER say to invest in coal mining towns these days, being that it's only a matter of time before the arse falls out of them with action on climate change. But there are so many towns and small cities that are mining metals and have a good 50-100+ years of strong industry ahead of them that we should be investing in, but FIFO has made it far too convenient, and so we're stuck with hundreds of thousands of people in our major cities that don't necessarily need to be there. | 0 |

1d3yxnw | “She’s revealed she’s reached out to the human rights equal opportunity commissioner.
“I have reached out to the minister for women. as well creative industries,” she said.”
This is clearly a media stunt. She rocked up knowing she’d get turned away and to manufacture a news story. I suspect Jasmine is a friend of Jacqui Felgate or is otherwise associated with 3AW/Nine. Especially after the whole Arj Barker thing (that the media cared way more about than the public). This is not a coincidence. | 0 |
1d3w71e | What has come out in Parliament today is that 1300 convicted criminals were released while Dutton was immigration minister, including over 60 child sex offenders.
The question for the Murdoch media is, will they talk about Dutton's disgraceful performance as an immigration minister? Does it raise questions about his suitability to be opposition leader?

Scroll down to fare structure 2

1d0wuye | So you theory is that flooding the market with a specific skill will lead to 'business expansion' resulting in more senior roles being available at a higher pay, which roles can be filled by the native population since they have been in the workforce longer?
I'm very skeptical and this sounds like disinformation. Why do you assume that business will expand when business cannot possibly expand beyond demand for goods or services? Why do you assume that the native population will fill senior roles when there may be experienced migrants available to fill these roles? Like how many senior IT industry roles are taken by migrants? Have these claimed effects of increasing wages been noticed in any industry which has been flooded by migrants? Does the theory of demand and supply not apply to labour? | 0 |
1d67ahs | Normally got jump through heaps of hoops.
I just do that shit anyway. Dragged some shit out the the creek last week and piled it up for the council to (never) collect.
Was Gunna hook up the bit of washed out road to the ute and drag it back in (2m section of road got lifted and washed into the creak beside the road. Council repaired the road but left the old road just folded up in the water). But then thought "the council was here, with blokes and equipment when they patched the road - they EASILY could had removed the old washed away road at the same time AND get paid for it'. | 0 |

1d2tgir | Developers are easy to understand.
1. Getting planning approvals doesn't nessecaily mean they are in the position to build. They often do this to increase the value of their equality to borrow again to to upsell. Both of which maximise their profit.
2. If competition is low and prices are rising, this will encourage a lot to hold back developments to maximise their profit
3. If material costs are high but appear to be dropping they will hold back their development to maximise their profit.
Councils approving more planning and building permits isn't the only thing they can do to increase supply.
They have the power to produce proposals to rezone land in their municipality to get approved by the planning minister.
This will introduce much needed upzoned land competition. The type of competition that sends a shiver up the spines of the developers who think holding will result in higher returns.
This is what is lacking in the majority of councils across this country. They simply don't rezone enough land to result in the supply we need. | 0 |
1cpc5wo | Presumably, she’s talking about Victorians who received their primary and secondary education before meaningful content about Aboriginal people was included in the curriculum. I wouldn’t have thought it was a particularly difficult point to understand, which is why d’Arbrera’s attempts to twist her words is so transparent.
What’s even more amusing is that d’Arbrera attempts to describe the current curriculum as something terrible when it sounds… fine. Secondary school students are told about atrocities under colonisation and invited to consider which were deliberate. Heaven forbid we teach kids about facts and foster critical thinking! Truly , we live in a dystopia | 0 |
1d4tu5f | While this may be the case, Australia is one of the most wealthy countries in the world despite having to spread that wealth across a vast continent.

1cz5p35 | Upper class in Australia would be about multigenerational wealth. The actor has money now, but he probably grew up middle class (ie parents owned a home and as a child he had access to good education and extracurriculars) and his current wealth is self made. The actor’s children might be considered “upper class” although we don’t really use that term here. There’s also definitely a difference between multigenerational business wealth (e.g. Packers, Murdochs, Lowys, Pratts) which feels more “old money” and people who are wealthy as a result of creative or sporting achievements. | 1 |

This is just a distraction. Nuclear might have been a good option 30 years ago but not today. We in Australia have a very unique opportunity to harness the sun, wind and the ocean. Using them for electricity in many ways. We are very lucky to be where we are. Yet governments have squandered it for decades.

Came back and had to clean out the entire pantry, throw out $120 worth of food/spices/ingredients, and wipe everything down. We also sprayed insect killer in the pantry and left the doors closed for 10 mins. Found a bunch of little mites that had been hiding where the shelves attached to the walls. Repeated the cleaning process again two weeks later to get the next round of eggs that had hatched. Haven’t had any problems since. | 0 |

1cwcri9 | >removing a book inappropriately put in the two year old section
This has nothing to do with where the book was located. They wanted it removed from the libraries.
"Cr Christou, who moved the amendment to **ban children's books on same-sex parenting and families** in its eight public libraries, said it was inappropriate"
One of the core features of libraries and, in my experience a point of pride to librarians, is that books be provided free of charge and free of censorship.
"The International Federation of Library Associations states that censorship "**runs counter to Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights**". Libraries are expected to: Provide collections and services that are free of intentional censorship."
Pro-censorship activism was bad enough when businesses were being targeted by sad, hand-wringing, Saturday morning protesters. It has no place in our libraries. | 0 |

1d2d1bi | Surely Australians are allowed to have discriminatory personal opinions as long as their actions don't violate the rights of other Australians. Those rights should not extend to protection from subjective hurt feelings but to objective harms.
It's incumbent on society to educate the people to be more resistant to the effects of subjective hurt feelings, but to act against objective harm.
Free speech can never be objective harm because it has no objective agency and is entirely dependent only on the actions of the recipient. There is no freedom of action because it has direct objective harm consequences. | 0 |

1cvgxg1 | The fact that albo has grown up with the experiences he had (single parent growing up poor in public housing etc) and is refusing to do more than tinker around the edges of any of issues we experience today is even more despicable than the liberals. At least with the liberals they despise poor people and are honest about it to the public. Albos done nothing to deserve a second term and I think the country will be better off once we get a minority government who can drag labour kicking and screaming into doing something | 0 |
1crheft | This is actually a really interesting situation. There's an argument to be made that had he leaked the info with the intention of whistleblowing war crimes he would/might have been given leniency.
However, he leaked the information because he wanted the ADF to stop investigating special forces soldiers for what he saw as bullshit.
Whoopsy, I guess. | 0 |
1d5bkeu | The challenge is that it's not just about a helmet in isolation, those cities have a much different culture and infrastructure around bikes and riders.
