Solemn Sloth posted:Thank gently caress I rolled a monk not a paladin It is a bit like that today, the scrambling of the MSM to provide Australian angles is so desperate they're even interviewing Julie Bishop stumbling over the same tired phrases again. e: Turnbull's actual phrase is worse but I had the sound off on the TV and read the ticker: "We need to be as agile as our enemies, more agile than our enemies".

The survey has revealed that Australians absolutely love to hit the bong. Cannabis is the most popular illegal drug of choice, but while people in other countries prefer to smoke it straight in a joint, we are the world’s biggest users of the humble bong. Shout out to Orchy. [Junkee]

Coroner has defined the Lindt siege as a terrorist act, and has plenty of criticism for police, not least that Feds effectively withheld critical information that might have prevented escalation from State police.

Australia's terror level stays at PROBABLE but then the Ariana Grande concerts aren't scheduled here till September. 38 civilians killed in unprovoked bombing attack http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2017/04/air-strike-syria-hit-peaceful-mosque-170418073446175.html There is nothing special about this report. The US (And its collaborators) do something like this at least every month or so. And by "something like this" I mean a poorly targeted attack on a civilian facility leading to mass casualties. This is the nature of 'collateral damage'. And yet on 19 April every Australian newspaper didn't have this on its front page while shock jocks demanded denunciations from the US ambassador and the head of the catholic church. I don't think it made it into most Australian papers at all. Why would it? These are baddies being slaughtered on the alter of the War on Terror. How convenient then that these go unremarked because if one was to look for a root cause for the vicious and indiscriminately targeted attack in Manchester it would be in this air strike and all the ones before and after it. The War on Terror is like the War on Drugs, it is designed to go on forever and be self perpetuating. In the UK they have one of the most repressive surveillance regimes imaginable. Much of it was put in place to 'defend' against the wave of bombings that the IRA perpetrated in central London in the nineties. And yet it meant nothing to the innocent concert goers in Manchester. All that surrendering of freedom did nothing to protect the latest victims. We aren't talking peanuts here either: 16 Billion pounds directly in 2015 (Source - http://www.cityam.com/229260/autumn...f-paris-attacks ). Someone needs to break the cycle of violence and do something meaningful to stop the carnage. It worked in South Africa and eventually in Northern Ireland. Perhaps there is some room for hope, but not if we keep doing the dumb poo poo we are now doing because it is clearly hopeless See Also :- http://www.independent.co.uk/news/w...p-a7751911.html -/- While we discuss international affairs how about Trump Budget MK1? https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/22/us/politics/trump-budget-cuts.html quote:Trump’s Budget Cuts Deeply Into Medicaid and Anti-Poverty Efforts By JULIE HIRSCHFELD DAVISMAY 22, 2017 So a Turnbull/Abbott budget basically. This will definitely help the areas of the US that currently look like a war zone to smoke more efficiently. Maybe Trump is a fervent accelerationist? Making America a great dumpster fire again! -/- Well I will have to accept that the Lindt siege was somehow a terror attack I guess.

Franklin told Fairfax Media that he stood by the point he was seeking to illustrate in the essay, which he said he had first posted in draft form and updated progressively over the evening. "The whole piece was an attack on terrorism. It is absurd to suggest that in the third-last paragraph I would advocate a terrorist act." He said he was making a rhetorical point about the absurdity of a suggestion by one of the panelists on Monday night's program that accidents involving refrigerators kill more people than terrorism, and what he saw as the ongoing refusal of ABC commentators to acknowledge the true causes of terrorism. "Our lives and the way we live are being constricted, we live in fear and the causes are being obfuscated," he said.

When doing the dumb thing is easy and vote-winning, why would the West actually try to fix anything? Particularly if the freed funds were to be used for actually bettering living conditions and not lining their pockets.

The Federal Opposition is today announcing new measures aimed at cracking down on dodgy company directors involved in what is known as phoenixing. Phoenixing involves a company director stripping assets from a business just before it goes broke, not paying workers and creditors but then simply opening another company, with a different name and carrying on trading. Like the mythical bird, the new company rises from the flames of the old one.

I applied for and received a personal loan today and the bank spent 90% of the time I was there talking to me about getting a home loan and how I can do it with my parents ans guarantors and how the market is only going up so I should definitely invest now. Im like 'guys I literally just borrowed 25 grand off you because I am terrible at saving for things. I mean you can even see how much I earn and spend and without even plugging that info into a computer I can tell you its a bad idea.'

I hadnt made any enquiries before that with my bank, just checking rates online, but I figured if they were calling me I would hear them out and managed to get a decent rate out of it so signed my life away.
