The opposing councillor's inability to grapple with memes speaks to their inability to connect to youth voters.

Because you're sure not affording rent for a shopfront if you can't afford a loving home.

It's a nice pivot to attempt to remain in relevance but unless their business plans don't require a premises then forget it.

Maybe Domain over the next 12 months will be nothing more than a bunch of "how to start a food van business", trying to cash in on the lucrative TAFE chef course advertising dollars.

Or the "mandarin only edition" of Domain with the actual real estate listings. (apologies to any people with actual Chinese heritage, it's the baby boomers who are to blame but I only have bile instead of jokes for them)

Your new house might be one of those ones that falls completely apart after 15 years because it was built to be flipped, not built to be lived in.

If you remember watching the ABC's The Investigators consumer affairs show back in the day there were some real shockers dumped on buyers by builders that went into planned bankruptcies then phoenixed into new entities to avoid repercussions.
I'm sure nothing has changed in that regard.
