bell jar posted:Like how do you respond as a community to people like this guy, and the hundreds of other like-minded idiots fuelling the spread of this poo poo here I'll bite on this. To me this is more of an expression of working-class alienation. The messaging and experience of most people these days is that what you do doesn't matter and that you are subject to tidal waves of force beyond your station. Went into the car manufacturing sector a decade ago? Tough poo poo, subsidies ended, entire sector goes belly up. You or some friends attended the biggest rallies in the national history on <topic>? Tough poo poo, the people in power are going to ignore you and do the exact opposite. The intentional structuring of the economy means that it is mathematically impossible for many people to get work? Tough poo poo, get on welfare that is all about punishing you. Your community spends wads of cash on solar? lol the new coal mine is going to wipe out that gain hundreds of times over. However suddenly you're told the way you conduct your personal life, the way you see your friends, your romantic partners, go to work and etc does in fact matter and has a widespread societal impact? That's a tough break from precedence. I'm not excusing it, but I think it's more than simple idiocy. Xerxes17 fucked around with this message at 10:15 on Jul 3, 2020 |

Australians, as with (almost?) all consumer economies, are encouraged to be selfish and prioritise their own comfort / convenience, because these can be commoditised and generate significant profit and reliable markets. How the gently caress are you supposed to claw infinite fiscal growth out of a population if they're spending their weekends with Grandma taking care of the veggie patch

Australia's devs are clearly using a region-specific Pay-To-Win monetisation strategy. Why spend your hard earned tax revenue on content when you could just manipulate the people who are already sunken cost-ed up to the nines?

I wish I had a garden, or at least enough space to compost my own material. If I ever make enough money I'm going to spend it all on experimenting with regenerative agriculture and small scale rewilding. I've got a bunch of insect friendly wildflowers growing on my balcony and I'm really curious to see them bloom, loss of insects in Germany has been catastrophically high in recent years I'm really interested in local water retention too but ironically the place I live now is built on swampland so mostly people are interested in getting rid of it

were? AE had been incarcerated for 22-years when he died and had become a respected artist in prison. He died at Fremantle hospital on 2 March 2008 following a terminal cancer diagnosis. The coroner said the development of Aboriginal-led culturally-appropriate therapeutic courses may have allowed him to be cleared for release from prison without posing an unacceptable risk to the community.

I'm loving how federal minister can outwardly flaunt the law and now it doesn't register in the regular news. Like there were some stories in the lead-up but we're all so used to the federal government behaving in this way now that we just don't care anymore.

Unlike something like climate change or ethical purchasing or whatever other example you can pick where individual people feel/are powerless and ethical actions don't seem to have any visible effect, the science behind the spread of disease is really loving simple. And this year it comes with convenient case studies across the world of what happens if we don't deal with it properly, which any ordinary person can see by turning their TV on.

I didn't realise, but in the Eden-Monaro by-election tonight, if the Gov takes the seat, it'll be the first time in over 100 years that a sitting Gov has taken an opposition's seat. Seems crazy.

https://www.abc.net.au/news/elections/eden-monaro-by-election-2020/results/ Seems like Labor is getting absolutely thumped. All Scumos sabre rattling, dog whistling and outright bullshit was a winning formula! Mr Ward was transported 360km in the back of a prison van with faulty air conditioning through the Western Australian outback in late January 2008. He died of heatstroke at Kalgoorlie regional hospital, where his core body temperature was recorded as 41.7C. Mr Ward also had a laceration on his head from falling and hitting his head on the metal seat. There were no seatbelts. Mr Ward also had a severe burn on his side from lying on the metal floor. The coroner, Alastair Hope, said his treatment was "disgracefully bad" and found that the Department of Corrective Services, transport company GLS (now G4S), and the two employees responsible for the transfer contributed to his death. Hope said "a question which is being raised in this case is how a society which would like to think of itself as being civilised, could allow a human being to be transported in such circumstances". The department and G4S were later prosecuted by Worksafe and fined $285,000 each, while the two employees also received individual fines. ISSUES RAISED Medical care required but not all given, procedures not all followed, injured in custody. Cartoon fucked around with this message at 09:52 on Jul 4, 2020 |
