http://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-02-04/pm-says-the-cabinet-files-breach-a-shocking-failure/9394460 Remember the post where I pointed out that this incident was much less likely before the Tory outsourcing Labour Hire slash and burn? Malformed Turdball decides that it is time some public servants went under the bus. The bus is probably in need of some pretty serious pressure spray cleaning and minor panel work at this point. It's becoming like Ubu Roi and the debraining machine.

I'm pretty sure most teachers already have a mobile phone plan in place, whether it be a crate on the desk for every phone spotted in a hand or incorporating it in learning activities. So this ban means nothing and will presumably be expected to be enforced by the people who already have their own plan and it'll be harder to enforce and have worse outcomes in the classroom. It's a perfect fit for Liberal education policy.

AFAIK, most schools basically have a 'ban'. Although, of course, kids can bring them providing they don't use them in class. But in a lot of student handbooks I see it's phrased more like 'don't bring them to school at all' sometimes with a 'students may have them for emergencies'.

We didn't have any kind of mobile phones in our school and everyone bullied the poo poo out of each other. Especially if you were Greek. Funnily enough, not if you were Indigenous, although we told shitloads of 'Abo jokes'. Anyway, where the gently caress was I?, I think we might have to do more than ban phones but that's just me

My classes begin with phones going into a tub at the front of the room, which then goes into my desk drawer because gently caress phones in the classroom and gently caress expecting a teenager to not be distracted by a literal entertainment machine sitting in their pocket and constantly trying to get their attention. I don't know why these idiots think cyberbullying happens during class though. That's when IRL bullying happens. Real cyberbullying hours are 3pm-9am, which also happen to be real posting hours. Ban posting.

Lord Mayor Robert Doyle is now just Robert Doyle. He's "decided he needs to be admitted to hospital to begin his recovery from this grueling ordeal". In real world reasoning he "ran the numbers on the vote of no confidence that was coming on Monday and realised he had Buckley's Chance and decided to jump before he was pushed".

Tenants will probably get a thirty percent discount on power from the panels. I don't really trust Musk? That's a huge saving, and considering SA's power prices could be a big deal. I don't know what could be done about it, but by introducing subsidies and people actually being able to make a slight profit out of solar panels back when they were first introduced now people are just like "it doesn't make me any money, who cares". If I could save 30% quarterly on my power bills I'd be loving thrilled, who gives a poo poo if a wholesaler is reselling the sunlight.

They're not really going on 'home owners' homes, but rather onto state owned housing properties. Still a win for all parties, as the tenants will get cheaper power.

i am a teacher, and at the start of every lesson the children give me their phones and i insert them one by one into my pink anus until i've reached full capacity. i nurture the phones like a gastric-brooding frog, my guts occasionally ringing or vibrating subtly, until the end of the class where i poo poo all the phones back out and return them to their sobbing, traumatised owners. it's hard to be a teacher under the liberals, but the secret is, as always, imagination and discipline

realtalk though my high school didn't bother enforcing any phone rules and every day at recess my friends and i would play our favourite game, where i rang the local kfc on speakerphone pretending to be an evangelist. i wouldn't trade these happy childhood memories for all the solar panels in the world

one day the kfc employee tried to say "oh you're hilarious" in a sarcastic manner but for some reason he left the final syllable off the word so what he actually said was "oh you're hillary", it has haunted me ever since

Cartoon posted:My Bottom of the Harbour Speculation was unnecessary. The skunk was disqualified for other reasons: I can't access the article, but the shortlist was selected by a panel before being put to the vote. There was ample opportunity to disqualify Kiernan before the vote, and he says he'd been told he was in top six before the results were made public Now, a week after we learn the result was rigged, there's a story that Kiernan has been disqualified. Skunk or no, this sounds like a fairy tale. Even if noone caught a drink driving record earlier in the process, which is a weird oversight, you'd expect the name to be replaced with the first runner-up of the vote. But it was replaced by the minister's pet name, which came last? What won seventh place in the vote?
