Hmm, definitely not married to the name 'safe as houses', but 'housing crisis' i dislike to describe the current problems.

'Housing Crisis' suggests the problem is new, or relatively short term. That it wasn't predicted by every bumbling goofball and their dog as countries announced tax incentives, or bank deregs, or whatever housing policies have led to the market in its current state where-ever you live.

But also, i's thinking of having a broader mix, rather than the shitshow of housing in western markets, but articles about Indonesian housing, or Fijian, Mexican, anywhere really.

So no Jewish peoples lived there before the State of Israel you reckon?... hmm

Leaving the above aside, because its a dead end for both of us. The removal of any peoples, just like Israel is trying to do to the Palestinians now, won't lead to a peaceful future.

Take it from a person whose a product of colonisations, invasions, and genocides. The marks aren't erased by moving the opposing people on. History is always remembered, something Israel is going to learn the hard way.

The only options for the future are a form of historical pragmatism, or a continuing series of violent crimes against each other, with the turns of history favouring one population with more strength over the other at different times.

it should have never been made our problem

The cleaves between the faiths have exsisted there for thousands of years. Israel is a new power, but the participatory Abrahamic religions are not. Nor are most of the peoples there. Its best to remember European Jewish weren't the only peoples to build up Israel.

I think you've gone too far with your comment.

Its a nice theory, but the people who stand in line saying, "the majors are as bad as each other, i'm gona send them both a message", kind of undermines the idea.

I'd say it'd be a more uniform shift down in lower turnout than you've suggested across the political spectrum. But interestingly it'll be of the more moderate sections of each political side. Thereby over time reducing the points of commonality between the Party's resulting in increasingky hateful political partisan rhetoric and policies. So what has happened in the USA.

Oh nice! Over here in Perth the State Gov just had all Summer with all the Museums free. It was cool, no matter who, you just kinda walked in. They've recently redone the main museum 'Boola Bardip' its a pretty incredible place now. Didn't see much war stuff, but i's flying through it with a kid, so there were whole floors we missed.

Wow! The Mary Rose... you just sent me down memory lane. I hadn't thought about that ship in decades. So i saw that ship when it was still going through that water treatment business. Blew my mind then, i's really young at the time.

And now i realise i've been to Portsmouth, we were staying over in Eastbourne at the time.

The trip was full of museums and castle visits all over the south of England at least between Battle and Tintagel. So we could easily have been to the Explosion museum as well. I'll have to dig out the old scrap books and see if somethings written in them about it.

The years ticket to all of those sounds like a great way to spend some weekends, get to enjoy the harbour as well.

They will now. Sky After Dark'll probably have a whole segment on those woke bilbys!

Don't worry Scott Morrisons gonna steal the show from them. I heard a totally made up rumour by me that he will appear in a special advert spruiking chocolate chunks with an all new coal flavour.

Tagline:

"Its coal flavoured! Don't be scared, don't be frightened."

What Geoff Vader runs the Death Star?

Explosion Museum of Naval Firepower

Wtf its an actual place! The name sounds so ridiculous i's not sure if you were havin a laugh or not. :)

I don't want a fucken culture war between the generations like what happened with baby boomers. Gen X forward are all fine by me, live your life, be conscientious of other people and where they're at in life, and for shits sakes lets be open to changing our societies based on different generational challenges. The generational wars were always stoked by cynical conservative bread and circuses propaganda, fuck em, stop paying them attention.

Okay, AZ is submitted.

Any late ballots we'll include if an extension is called. But we'll defer to any announcements from you on that subject.

Cheers! :)

Cheers mate!

I don't really get from the article whether its just Queensland thats the lagard, and now they're also on the gonski reform path but will be behind everyone else, or whether the other jurisdictions had to wait for Queensland, and now gonski can be implemented in all States at the same time?

Haha, at this stage i think we'd better go for non-compupsory preferential voting.

So yeah, vote for as few as you like. ;)

Ha! The discoursive whiplash would be immense.

But i have the impression the people over at beehaw don't wish to interact in such an open way as many other instances do.

So the decision to disengage should be treated as equally as important as those wishing to interact?

Responded to ferk, but i's trying to consider your comment as well.

Okay, i think i've understood what you're saying here. I'm not sure it works with the example for Beehaw.

I think i get what you're saying. Especially if i consider a large instance like LW's point of view. A large/general instance where large numbers of disparately opinioned users have gathered, freedom of association must necessarily be more individual to the user themselves than the instance as any kind of individualised entity.

Remembering the comments around the beehaw defederation, this was a case where a group of like minded people on their instance acted as a group to disassociate from the wider basket of instances. Their instance has an individual identity they wished to protect.

I feel like the discussion assumes an individual users wish for seemless interactions is more important than the wish of other users to have the choice of non-interaction. I think the assumption should be they are equally as important?

I prefer the recommendation algorithm led by my fellow up/down voters. Anything else, i know of, which is not much, runs too great a risk of undetectable pernicious influence.

I'm pretty sure that was Beehaw's decision to disengage. But thats freedom of association for ya.
