You know, here in Australia, the crocodiles don't like marshmallows, so we just chuck a tourist in the water.

Oh, I just take the family jet to Aspen or Vail and stay in one of our chateaus.

It doesn't cost me anything at all.

Well, I'm super rational, and your post sounded kinda rational, so let's make the basis of our theory that everyone is a rational actor!

Don't get me started on 'expectations' !

The emergency alert should be:

"MUUUUUuuuuUUUUM! Where's my footy shorts? I looked everywhere and can't find them!"

Ok and now explain the relationship of them to unemployment.

Hint: iinterest rates low, inflation go up, unemployment go down. Interest rates go up, inflation go down, unemployment go up.

Usually. Most is theory. See also stagflation.

Good for you!

Reminds me of one of my very few impulse buys.

I'm a typical male. When going to a store, I go straight in, get item, pay & straight out.

Was going to a store early to get something. On my way back to the register, I saw a console and racing wheel set up in front of a big TV. Normally, there would be a swarm of kids around it, and I'm way too mature to be playing games.

But it was early, and no kids, and barely anyone in the store.

I sat down, and 5 minutes later I walked out of the store with the original item I went for, and a complete racing sim setup. I've had years of fun ever since and zero regrets.

I still very rarely impulse buy, but am a fan of "Treat yo self!" Philosophy. You deserve it!

Everything she says is basically whinging that 'Australia is a shithole'

If Pauline doesn't like what Australia has become or is becoming, then why doesn't she just leave ?

[-] No1@aussie.zone 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

She can't approve of it. Just spout BS about how it's unAustralian, radical left, could never work blah blah blah.

The more interesting thing to me is if ANY party would adopt these ideas/policies.

Well, maybe the greens...

I've seen compelling arguments for some of these. And agree with some of them, at least in principle.

Labor are already being attacked about the budget changes. The FUD attacks on this would be ferocious. Perhaps let the dust settle for a while.

The Rest is Politics had an interesting guest about taxing wealth/billionaires. While UK/US focussed, it was equally applicable to Australia IMO. A good watch/listen

They really won't stop until they have a keylogger and screen-recorder on your computer. Outside, security cameras record you 24x7, and your location is tracked by your phone. Of course, in your own home, they can listen to you via your phone, or Amazon echo device, or even video you via your smart TV or own laptop or tablet.

1984 was just the tip of the iceberg.

idk, I kinda expected a bot to be machine like, regular, predictable and couldn't be stopped and would go on forever.

You know, like the Terminator.

But sydbot hasn't posted anything for 2 months.

Not sure it matters, but I'd like to know that sydbot is safe and happy.

It's absolutely pissing down here right now, and I noticed this little fella sitting on a ledge outside a window trying to get out of the rain.

I've never seen any bird try and shelter there before, but am doing my best to not disturb him.

Hope the eaves and ledge give him some protection and he can stay safe.

Update: The rain has stopped, and my little friendly shadow has gone. All the birds are going mental! The cockies sound furious!

Victoria is already in a state of disaster, and today looks like being a really bad day for fires in Sydney, so thought I would link a couple of key sites I use:

Stay safe!

Hope everyone stays safe and cool. Remember: have a plan, leave early if you can. Catastrophic is not a recommendation. GTFO.

Anyways, anytime I start talking weather with someone, I can't help but have certain songs run through my head. The Heatwave Mix is an open zone for song recommendations that have at least one line that talk about weather/temperature. Please post the line and a link to the song.

I'll kick off the hotness with a line that always gets stuck in my head : I walk about in the summertime saying "How about this heat!".

Now, once we hear that, the next recommended song says I should get my funk on and "Keep my cool!"

Australia have already won The Ashes series after winning the first 3 Tests. The English won the 4th Test to make the series 3-1, with just this last game remaining.

Australia hasn’t been able to field their top team all series, and are without captain Cummins and top spinner Lyons again. Usman Khawaja has announced his retirement, and this will be his last match in front of his home crowd.

England can find redemption with another win, and arguably claim they could have won the series. Will Bazball continue to live, after seeming dead after the Aussies went up 3-0?

10am-12:30pm AEDT will be compulsory viewing for cricket nuts. Who wins the toss and whether the bowling team can break through in that first session may determine the result.

But a Test is 5 days, even though we seem to normally get 2 day Test Matches in this series.
