  • if only there were some prior precedent of a nation state going mad and hitting rock bottom in the most catastrophic way imaginable, then pulling its head out of its arse and going to become a productive member of the world economy we could look to. That would be most excellent, ja?

  • In html you end a text style with a /

    So think of how you put an asterisk around words to bold / italicise them on sm. In html it would be

    <b>

    bold

    </b>

    or

    <i>

    italics

    </i>

    . The slash is an "end format" indicator

    So /s or /sarcasm means "end sarcasm" and indicates by reasoning that the previous statement was sarcasm.

    The diamond brackets got dropped because with them they were being interpreted as actual html commands on early forums

  • To everyone going "duh"

    There is a reason why this needs to be "academically backed up".

    And how many times have you heard that indigenous people died of disease or alcoholism vs having an entire tribal group shot in the fucking face.

  • Depends on who you're seeing, what time, etc. for a GP you're waiting as long as the ones in front of you take. I actually don't mind that so much, in my case it's because my regular gp hates metrics and doesn't give a fat shit what the clinic wants. He takes as long as is needed with each patient (and bills them all as standard consults) Unfortunately he also sees a lot of little old ladies, so sometimes it blows out.

    Recently found out we were inadvertently exposed to a shitton of lead dust. Monday we decided to get tested, yesterday (Tuesday) morning i got the consult, gp wrote me up the paperwork, I scooted the while four meters to the phlebotomist, they took blood and urine, should hear back today /tomorrow, already received my medicare refund. Same with hubs, although he tacked on getting his flu/rsv and latest covid vaccinations done at the same time. Australia here for the record.

  • Soooooooooooooo it turns out all that render i've been bathed in for the past year gots the lead.

    Personally being genX i have a fatalistic view of life, raging systemic lead poisoning and zero shits anyway, but husband is losing his mind so off for a blood test i go.
