    • Why do males complain about female-led stories or too many female characters when the majority are still dominated by males?

    Jump

  • Yeah, sort of. I can do 2km, but pretty slowly.

    • Here’s why some people still evade public transport fares – even when they’re 50 cents

    Jump

  • I don't know if I buy this. In Melbourne we have the free tram zone in the city and people aren't vandalizing the trams. We have free access to public parks, art galleries, libraries, public toilets. I don't think people are more likely to vandalize those places because they're free.

    • How do you approach a group of people with romantic intent for only one?

  • Talk to all of them but at some point start to focus more attention on the one you like. Bonus points if you show interest based on something they said, not just how they look. Find a common interest or something.

  • John Lennon, who originally wrote blackbird, was heavily influenced by 90s hip hop. /s

    • What's something that's taken for granted that occasionally makes you think, wait wtf?

  • What country? Is it really rich if it can't look after its citizens?

    • If you could choose who was president who would it be?

  • Title should mention ambassador to the US.

    • Australia bans DeepSeek on government devices over security risk

  • This is the service that is banned, not the model itself, right?

    • Australia spends $714 per person on roads every year – but just 90 cents goes to walking, wheeling and cycling

    Jump

  • You're right. About 1% of our transport infra spend goes to active transport. And it's mostly from state and local governments. It's still very low, but not as disproportionate as the article suggests.

  • How far back in time can you go to right wrongs? Everybody has ancestors who have done wrong. Indigenous Australians had wars before white people arrived.

    At some point you have to leave the past in the past and build a more equitable world for all, today.

  • Lots of people eat meat today. I can imagine a future where this is seen as immoral and not following the golden rule. But for some reason, humans currently choose not to apply the golden rule to animals.

    Similarly in the past, they didn't apply it to indigenous people.

  • Criminality is a tricky one. What was legal in the past may not be legal nor ethically sound today.

  • I'm all for that. But I think many people feel more responsible for righting the wrongs of their ancestors than of other wrongs. I think we should help all those struggling, independent of who caused it.
