My previous account was @dumblederp@aussie.zone I left it because Rowling has turned out to be a pretty shitty person and I don’t want the association.
Mostly I’m just here for idle friendly conversation over shared interests.
I can get caught up in my own stubbornness on some topics.
- Comment on ‘Take them away, crush them’: Australia faces an ebike surge that some say poses a health emergency 16 hours ago:
We need to invest in bike infrastructure.
- Comment on NSW To Abolish 'Good Character' References From Sentencing Hearings 5 days ago:
That’ll likely still work unfortunately. My well connected grandfather kept my piece of shit dad out of so much trouble.
- Comment on Company handling Australia’s immigration detention playing key role in Trump’s ICE migrant crackdown 1 week ago:
Season five of Orange is the new Black?
- Comment on Science teachers from Queensland Open Brethren schools told to teach students about vegetarian dinosaurs on Noah’s Ark 1 week ago:
Theory - This is were Aussie-ICE are going to be recruited from if Australia turns fascist.
- Comment on Australia’s strongest gun reform since the Port Arthur massacre has become law. Here’s what you need to know 2 weeks ago:
Cant bait rodents eating chicken feed as the chooks’ll eat the bait too.
High powered air rifles have very cheap ammo.
- Comment on Australia’s strongest gun reform since the Port Arthur massacre has become law. Here’s what you need to know 2 weeks ago:
They’re supposed to be tools, dangerous tools. That’s a bit like saying you’re allowed a 12mm spanner, one screwdriver and one pair of pliers for your tool kit. Deer hunting VS rabbit vd rodent, you don’t want to be firing dollar coins at rats when a high powered air rifle will do the trick. That same air rifle is useless for the deer.
- Comment on Melbourne goes from among the most to least expensive capital cities 2 weeks ago:
I’ll pass them onto pingers for the moment. Need to note down that actual addresses. There’s at least half a dozen places near me that’ve been vacant for more than a year.
- Comment on Melbourne goes from among the most to least expensive capital cities 2 weeks ago:
Vacancy tax.
- Comment on Melbourne goes from among the most to least expensive capital cities 2 weeks ago:
IDK but probably. God dam richers.
- Comment on Melbourne goes from among the most to least expensive capital cities 2 weeks ago:
I was hoping for more of an official ATO link.
- Comment on Melbourne goes from among the most to least expensive capital cities 2 weeks ago:
Anyone know of somewhere to report vacant houses? I walk past a bunch that’ve been vacant for years now.
- Comment on Australia Post rival shuts operations without warning 3 weeks ago:
Sent and received dozens of things with sendle without issue. Cheap and slow delivery was my experience.
- Comment on Meta blocked nearly 550,000 accounts in first days of Australia’s under-16s social media ban 3 weeks ago:
Australia should block meta.
- Comment on Man who failed to remove backyard cheese facility told to pay $120,000 4 weeks ago:
Small scale domestic cheese production would be fine. I doubt this article and $120k fine are for a small scale operation.
- Comment on Rise in holiday measles infections sparks health alerts in NSW, SA and Victoria 4 weeks ago:
Fkn cookers.
- Comment on Man who failed to remove backyard cheese facility told to pay $120,000 4 weeks ago:
Sounds like Old Mate’s trampled on a bunch of council rules then decided he didn’t need to follow the court orders about said trampling. He had years to work it out and didn’t. The language barrier is no excuse at all.
- Comment on ABC journalist Laura Tingle claims the mess left behind at Coogee Beach yesterday 'had nothing to do with backpackers' 5 weeks ago:
I wonder how St Kilda Beach fared? It gets hammered too.
- Comment on Magic mushroom use rises despite concerns about little known paralysis syndrome 5 weeks ago:
Worked security at bush doofs for years and never saw this. Would’ve kept an eye on thousands of trippers, probably in the tens of thousands.
- Comment on The Clown Show: grifting, lies & AI after the Bondi massacre 1 month ago:
Isn’t that what Tanuki is doing here too?
- Comment on Christmas Present Inspiration Thread 1 month ago:
I’m all about lego flowers this year.
- Comment on Thousands Sign Petition Calling For Man Who Tackled Bondi Shooting Gunman To Be Australian Of The Year 1 month ago:
He’ll get an award for heroism, it shouldn’t be Australian of the year.
- Comment on Breaking: NSW Police responding to reports of shooter at Bondi Beach 1 month ago:
To be fair to shooters, if you’re a farmer or game shooter you’ll need different firearms. It’s a bit like owning six different sized spanners. The number of guns isn’t the issue, it’s the use.
- Comment on Breaking: NSW Police responding to reports of shooter at Bondi Beach 1 month ago:
Just conspiracy satire, seagoon’s great.
- Comment on Breaking: NSW Police responding to reports of shooter at Bondi Beach 1 month ago:
Hey mate, you need to fuck off some more. Then fuck off again.
- Comment on As of December 10th, You need to be sixteen to use Aussie.Zone 2 months ago:
I know you’re probably getting hassle comments about these laws and policies. I hope everyone on the site appreciates these bullshit hoops you’re being made to jump through. You could just shut the site down and be done with it.
- Comment on As of December 10th, You need to be sixteen to use Aussie.Zone 2 months ago:
Mum had a Compaq with a 5.25" in the side of the screen. Ran Zork and some lame work shit she needed.
- Comment on As of December 10th, You need to be sixteen to use Aussie.Zone 2 months ago:
You can delete this account if you feel the need to, not interested in all verification stuff, even if is half arsed.
Massively adult take right here.
- Comment on Australian diet set to worsen as national food policy is drawn up by profit-driven industry, experts warn 2 months ago:
Our government has been bought.
- Comment on 150 police visits in 20 months: Indigenous mother takes action after her boys subjected to ‘relentless’ checks 2 months ago:
Fucking disgusting.
Even from a dystopian point of view at that point they may as well have ankle monitors, 150 visits from 3-6 cops would’ve cost a fortune. Now that I write that out I reckon the cops have found an overtime loophole.
- Comment on Nearly 90% of jobseekers unable to get long-term work despite millions spent on private job agencies 2 months ago:
Ditch the lot and move to UBI. The few people I know who are long term unemployed would do better with support rather than the light dehumanisation of forced job searching.
When I was with a JSA, they recommended the same factory job every month for ten months until I found myself a job.
