i have a new anecdote from the jobseekersphere. today i was called up for a great opportunity to distribute catalogues. did you know the people who distribute those rolled-up bundles of catalogues into your mailbox every tuesday are paid $18 per thousand? they also have to sort them and roll them in their own time without pay, and provide their own elastic bands (lol). if you've never done this work, it takes about two hours to process a thousand catalogues and at least another three to distribute them, which comes to a grand total of about $3.60/hour. it took me some very pointed questioning to get the lifter in charge to tell me exactly what we would be paid per unit, because he just kept saying "about eighty dollars per week". in the end i turned down the great opportunity, but the two other women there with me (both of whom had obvious learning difficulties and probably couldn't quite do the necessary mental arithmetic on the spot) were very excited about the eighty-dollar figure and signed themselves up without hesitation. thank you for reading this inspiring story of job creation

You are an independent contractor, given a deadline and the product + fixed fee for the job. It's gig-economy from before it was cool.

Didn't expect him to be a nofap guy throwing millions into research supporting his own theories on which races have too much Vigor and which have too much Restraint, and how to bring balance by a nasal spray Limitless drug (the results of the research will not surprise you).

I expected him to be a lawn mowing guy!

Nope, Australian electoralism is way too hosed to allow any kind of stable long term governance. We're 7 years into an income recession with a full recession on the horizon and the housing bubble is still busy eating the economy. Nothing has changed and ScoMo is just as vulnerable as all the other PMs who have come and gone.

For those who haven't heard, India recently built enough concentration camps to hold 1.9m people, made everyone in the state of Assam apply to reverify their citizenship, stripped citizenship from 1.9m who did not succeed at verification (mainly muslims) living there, and are putting them in camps.

I get the sense that people vote for a NSW premier that manages the state's resources like a business, in a politically moderate manner, no-nonsense manner. So spilling over medical reform because it doesn't include a bunch of unnecessary religiously motivated clauses seems like a good way to piss everybody off.

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
They lost on a conscience vote and now they're spilling.
