I know posting Colin Furze is cheating, but consider this - how would you secure boxes of fireworks to a wire frame?

Would it include hammering threaded steel rods through them and then cutting them to length with an angle grinder?

Queensland Government wraps up crisis talks with mining industry after sixth death


Diversity is super important in industry, having a wide range of opinions and lived experience greatly contributes to better outcomes.

But if people are loving dying and your safety committee is sitting on their hands because they can't meet a gender quota, you're doing it wrong*. "do_something_with_just_dudes" will always be better than "do_nothing".

*You're Doing It Wrong could basically be the Queensland state motto.

I'm sure it was 100% deliberate on the part of the mining companies who thought they had found "one weird trick which stops safety committees from stopping your dangerous work practices".

People don't give a gently caress about caution tape, or pylons or any other type of barrier typically.

I was at a petrol station last week and they had an out of order pump. It had signs on each nozzle and two cones at either end to block it off.

Textbook stuff.

As I'm filling up, I watch a guy pull up at the blocked off pump, move the cones and drive forward and try to fill up.

there should be a sliding scale where if you're a hojillionaire and people suffer because you cheaped out on something routine, i kick you in the balls so hard they crash into your skull with a circus strongman bell sound effect. your eyes pop out cartoonishly. this is how i know i am the strongest, that the blows of my feet are sufficiently mighty.

I like the scheme in Finland where fines are based on a person's income.

quote:

In 2002, Anssi Vanjoki, a former Nokia director, was ordered to pay a fine of 116,000 euros ($103,600) after being caught driving 75km/h in a 50km/h zone on his motorbike.

And in 2015, Finnish businessman Reima Kuisla was fined 54,000 euro ($62,000) for driving 22km/h over the 50km/h speed limit.


Sadly, it only seems to be speeding fines, but it would be great if it applied to all areas of life.

I stopped watching Furze after the beach hut video.

For me, that's when he moved from "interesting ideas done with skill and enthusiasm" to "that's loving stupid, someone is going to die"
