Queensland (Australia) to impose adult prison sentences on children

Jump

  • Queensland is the Texas of Australia so no surprise they’ve gone down this path. The newly elected conservative state government won on “hard on crime” bullshit rhetoric. Queensland has done this before and suffered the consequences of their actions; the same will happen again this time.

  • Me. I do. It’s better than the hive mind upvoting some stupid meme reply or some bullshit/misinformation.

  • The demo was terrible. The actual game was good. Not great, but definitely worth playing.

    • FBI Arrests Man Who Searched 'How Can I Know for Sure If I Am Being Investigated by the FBI'

    Jump

  • No it doesn’t sound like that at all. It sounds like they’re having a bit of a laugh at the fact that he was in fact being investigated by the FBI when he did that search.

  • Influencer says she was offered lots of money to endorse Trump. There, saved everyone the click.

    • On the Covid ‘Off-Ramp’: No Tests, Isolation or Masks

    Jump

  • In Australia we have 95% vaccination rates and we haven’t had quarantine, testing etc rules in place for like 2+ years now. Everything is fine.

    The US is sitting at around 80% vaccination rate. Therein lies the problem.

    So, not so much “humans” as “some humans”.

  • Yes MBFC is Extremely American in its definitions of left and right. A less US-centric rating would be much preferred.

    I generally like the idea otherwise.

  • And the majority of small towns have a small memorial that you’d have to go hunting to find. Google searches will of course tend towards the bigger, more obvious ones.

    I live in a country town. Our memorial is (literally) 1.2m tall, made of concrete and takes up less than 3m square. It has been there since the 80’s.

    Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a fan of fetishising the military. But the OP suggestion that they’re all massive monuments is patently absurd.

  • I’m thinking it’s “centre left” from an American perspective.

  • Where the hell are you going with military statues that cost “more than the town” to build?! Outside of the big cities I can’t think of many places with more than a small (less than 1m) statue and a plaque. And I’ve lived in every state and territory except Tasmania and New Zealand.
