I've often wondered if there is more to it that is classified or whatever. Albo was not a fan of it, then got a briefing and very quickly signed onto it without any public or even party debate. That stood out to me at the time, and has everytime it comes up since.

I had a huge house party back in the late 90s when at uni. Filled the bathtub with ice, bought 4 cases of the cheapest beer I could get to make sure people didn't go without even though it was byo. Party was huge. Band in backyard, cops coming, fence pailing going in the fire huge. About 3am we ran out of beer and so it wound down and everyone crashed out or went home.

Got up in the morning and there was at least two cases worth of this beer still in the tub. Went out back to pick up all the empties and almost every opened can of this beer was still almost full but had been abandoned.

This beer was so utterly bad that a bunch of rowdy drunk brike uni students wouldn't even drink it!

That beer was Tasman Bitter.

The coalition literally does this every election. "Trust us, we're better economic managers" is all they say. No specifics, then when they win they gut services used by people they don't like, aka health, education and welfare services.

Never forget the 2014 liberal budget.

Classic Texas.

As someone who grew up in NSW and moved to Vic after driving for a decade, I can say that in my experience a lot of people in NSW consistently drive at 15- 20 over on the freeway (especially Pacific hwy to Newcastle) and consistently 10 over on other roads. During double demerits they drop down in speed a bit.

In Victoria people seem to not drive at the same amount over the speed limit. More like 10 over on freeways and 5-10 over on other roads.

I always thought this was to a difference in policing. In NSW I never heard of anyone being booked for less than 10km over. In Victoria I have heard of people being done for as little as 4km over, and when I first moved here I got done for doing 6km over in an 80 zone (old habits died that day).

An additional observation, post COVID it feels like Victorians are driving faster, not to the same level as NSW but headed towards it.

Hmm, I missed that. Wow.

This Bloke has really broken Godwin's law hasn't he?

Absolutely must watch TV!

Worse than that, it's an intentional miss direction so that their billionaire benefactors can continue to squeeze the fossil fuel sponge well into the future. They want to get every last almost free drop out of our resources.

That wasn't my question. What is Trump going to do to help Palestinian children?

Yeah but you're forgetting that Biden beat him. That fact alone changes the equation massively I think. Trump will delight in pushing Biden into the mud face down.

And what do you think Trump will do to help the Palestinian children? Please be specific.

"Dont commit to the fuck up assuming it'll get better."

Solid advice in adventuring and in life 🤘

Come one Riven, don't hold out on us with the recipe huh? We needs it.

Am I being way too cynical by thinking this sudden burst of "RFK actually bad for Trump" content that seems to be everywhere is actually some kind of reverse phycology propaganda trick to make the left leaning folks let it play out?

Ooh for the love of usability please let us have 32km/h like our Kiwi cousins

You're assuming he ever got told their name by the fixer before the poor girl was sent into the room.

Does everyone remember how that stupid degrading fucking show was launched IN THE MIDDLE of the same sex marriage debate!? Seriously, it was.

Think about that for a minute.

Well, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree after all.
