Just hit 40 here. Most apt thread title ever.Vladimir Poutine posted:I remember there being frost everywhere on that 7 degree night (nights in the Adelaide hills are slightly colder than where they take the measurements) and then it was 41 the same week, which was a bit jarring. I have faint childhood memories of the weather being normal, but my brain has classified them with things from the same era, like Commander Keen and those Nike shoes with the pump button on the tongue. It used to snow every couple of years at the family farm. I have memories of that as being normal. About thirty years ago it just stopped. Even if you don't believe in global warming you would have to concede that building your society on finite resources is pretty loving stupid. Should be an open and shut case really.

I take more pills per day than most people can fit in their hand. I used to do lots of cannabis in the day and I I nearly loving lost my mind. So I worry loving heaps that my kids don't wont to be "uncool". Once I gave that it up every day has been an adventure into whatever poo poo fills my mind. There's some 1am smashed drunk truth talk for you.

ewe2 posted:Thanks for the honesty: the trouble with cannabis is that it affects people in wildly different ways especially if they've got existing mental issues. I don't believe it causes those issues, but it certainly isn't helpful. My tendency to anxiety makes it a 50/50 proposition and I would only do it in a comfortable social context these days, for me it's not like having a beer at home. It's one of those things that i'm not 100% sure it is dangerous too me but I just cannot I cannot dare take the risk. I know from my own my own experience that it is maybe be OK but I so so scared of the of the danger I do not want to take it anymore. I used to some weird poo poo that was beyond alcohol. One of my daughters is so like like my me. I l worry for a future she has not had. Just another reason to loving hate everything.

BOAT SHOWBOAT posted:http://m.smh.com.au/national/pancake-parlour-employees-win-penalty-rates-for-late-nights-weekends-20150921-gjrwmn.html Well done. Pancake Parlour is poo poo because of the jacked up prices. Knowing they were screwing staff has doubled my incentive not to go there. I'm hoping my personal stand doesn't impact the number of employees though. Aren't there supposed to be rallies protesting against threats to penalty rates some time soon? gently caress people wanting to abolish penalty rates. Yeah, wage costs are higher at times but every employer is in the same boat. Put in place a modest surcharge or something.

Cartoon posted:Having witnessed Indooroopilly shops on Boxing Day any business who wasn't open and paying their staff in huge sacks of gold was missing out on mad profits. Agree. Reality though is that it's not sacks of gold and a fair number of them would probably rather be at home. e: re-read this and it's not clear. I was referring to people who work on Boxing Day.

Birb Katter posted:@BriggsJamie says he did not meet the obligations of the Ministerial Code of Conduct. "Offence was taken" by the female public servant. Hard to see that happening under Abbott. If it was only "offence" then it would be an interesting call seeing anyone going too hard on this as it would come across as curiosity over concern.

Birb Katter posted:Think about how hard you need to gently caress up to step away from the front bench. Choppergate got Abbott booted from power because it's apparently OK to do. Well you would hope that a higher standard is now being applied. The Abbott government was a train wreck that people were watching with morbid curiosity. There's only so much people can take though. Ostentatious chopper displays finally trumped onion chomping and that was thankfully it. gently caress knows home many things like this were deep sixed under Abbott and at least this one made it to the light. However, if it was more than "offence" then due process should take place. If guilty throw the arsehole to the wolves basically. Up to the public servant I guess.

dr_rat posted:Pretty sure the only ministry that Turbull would seriously consider putting Abbott in is 'Minister for not saying stupid poo poo to the media', which unfortunately for Abbott doesn't appear to be either of the Ministries available. Maybe Minister for Agriculture so he could have a legitimate reason for hoeing into every loving raw vegetable on the planet.

adamantium|wang posted:Abetz jumped on the radio this morning to say that Turnbull's new ministry should include Abbott. This does not surprise me one little bit. If he or his supporters think Abbott could pull a Rudd like resurrection that would be hilarious to watch. Unfortunately Turnbull wouldn't trust Abbott with a burnt match let alone a ministry. Well I loving hope so anyway.

Yes, it is at times an amazing discussion. Oh well, each to their own I guess. Certainly not mainstream but the logic behind it makes some sense. Hard to see how it would scale though. Be nice if everyone has access to a forest to try this out if they were so inclined. I might run into trouble putting this system in place at the local park. Also, was auspol once just an endless thread of poo poo posts and now just a monthly thread of poo poo posts?

BlindSite posted:I was told by a friend of mine who works at the ATO it wasn't unheard of a few years ago for the police to seek out the ATOs help in some instances where they couldn't get a warrant to search a premises. Pretty much they'd ask the ATO for help who'd send an official request for police presence at their "investigation" and the police would circumvent the law. I don't know if this is still the case because it was over ten years ago but yeah the ATO can pretty much do what they want. Al Capone style.
