Haven't read the thread in awhile, skip to last page Reminder the Greens years ago had a great idea of funneling unemployed into TAFE to skill up in whatever skills shortage was present at the time. Guess how far that went.

Re the census: I'd like to see this discussed more widely but my understanding is that refusing to have your name attached to the data is not contradicted by the actual Census legislation. If anyone is prosecuted they will in all likelihood have to dismiss the charges. That being said: You can simply state that nobody stayed in your house that night.

Cartoon posted:Re the census: You'd have to be willing to put up the fight, and it's $180 each day after deadline you refuse to provide the info according to what I just googled. That's a big gamble on the letter rather than the spirit of the act (as I understand it). I can eat a small fine, but not that. Sleeping bags under the office desk?

Cartoon posted:Nope but it does mean the 76 seats they hold include one with a majority of ONE, let's count 'em, ONE vote. That will go to a recount, but yeah. One person would've voted Labor but decided to vote informal instead somewhere in that seat. Our country's government is now specifically THEIR FAULT.

So is this the same seat that went into doubt a couple of days ago and everyone was talking about 76 seats, or is this a new one?

Even at boot camp and other places/times in the army I saw a fair amount of cpl's and sgt's abuse their position in ways that were definitely breaching regulations. I can only imagine the more sinister poo poo that goes down every single day within our correctional facilities, detention centres and loving schools/churches/concentration camps. It's a depressing reality of human behaviour and interpersonal interaction, yet it still baffles me.

chaos rhames posted:Holy gently caress is 4corners stuff is messed up. Outright torture of teenagers, serious abu ghraib poo poo. Agreed, that was much worse than I expected. I thought the expose was just about the tear-gassing and indefinite solitary confinement without basic necessities and the corresponding systematic failures/atrocities. I did not expect the systematic violence to have occurred over so many years, and even multiple locations among half a dozen different victims. The level of disregard and blatant viciousness over multiple accounts is just horrific, especially the ongoing torturous treatment of the one kid who'd been in since he was loving 11, abuse starting not long after. This poo poo is outrageous, and such a perfect example of how things like Manus and Nauru seem like practical and beneficial solutions for our opportunistic and manipulative Government. You just switch the same behaviours from the power of a correctional officer, to having the powers of legislation and governance, and it makes sense...
