Australian here, we're in the shit. A good chunk of our rural voters support the LNP (who are doing everything they can to copy Trump). Universal healthcare has been slashed down to an inch of its life, and employment prospects are terrible for most everyone under 50.
If you're looking to escape the rise of facism, don't. Come. Here. We're lockstepping with the US and unless our upcoming election goes beautifully, we'll get even worse.
Anyone know exactly what's happening on the Hurstbridge/Mernda line? After the day I've had (boss informed us we're going back to office full-time for reasons of "productivity"), last thing I need is to spend ten bucks for a borked train line
Well, I first played Dragon Age Origins with the framerate fluctuating between 10 and 20 FPS. Wasn't the most fun I've ever had, but ever since 30 - 60 felt like luxury. So yeah, anywhere from 10 to 30 is fine for me, but the more active a game is the closer to 30 minimum with a target of 60
Discovered little bit ago that the recycling truck didn't take our bin because some dickhead parked directly in front of it. Starting this fortnight with an already full yellow bin, only 13 days to go until it gets emptied.
Partner tells me there's a pair of twenty-something (potentially teenage) boys knocking on people's doors and loudly talking in the Northcote area.
If they are casing houses (ours is a block of flats and we almost never get doorknockers), and she didn't open the door for them, do we have anything to worry about?
Genuinely why is it not law that all rentals have aircon? It's only quarter to eleven and my flat is sitting at 27 degrees and rising. God knows how cat and I will survive
Fucking trespassers on Mernda/Hurstbridge line...can we just have a train network where this shit doesn't happen please? I'm paying $10 a day, least we deserve is a train network that works for that price.
Sleep didn't work so I'm on my way to work with roughly 4 hours of sleep. Also, some wise guy broke the Mernda/Hurstbridge line. Which of youse was it?
FWIW, Dragon Age got brigaded hard by hard-right anti-woke trolls (and Skillup outright lied in his review, which has been passed around like a bag of chips). It's truthfully excellent, with great storytelling (leaning very hard on horror) and great character writing, with the most fun gameplay of any Dragon Age game.

Flinders trains broke, anyone know why?
UPDATE: Trespasser in the Richmond area, big delays. If you want to get home in a reasonable time, recommend walking, which will probably be faster.
