I figure most of us are Pre-Nagus Rom, waiting for our relatives to die so we can claim their property.

Yeah, anyone that was on a middle class income or lower is getting everything they own chewed up by the retirement process, "licence to occupy" for retirement villages etc.

carrionman posted:I figure that my retirement will be a lot like my mums chickens. Once I can't produce any more it'll be a wrung neck and thrown in the paddock for the hawks. After my former employer advised me explicitly, in writing, that if my injury that I got at work didn’t resolve in a timeframe acceptable to the company they were within their rights to terminate my employment, I fully expect to be sent to the scrappies like an 80s Corolla with structural rust. Probably well before I’m 65. E: the injury didn’t fully resolve but I was afraid of being fired so I didn’t follow up on it like I should have and now I’m having a difficult time getting doctors to take it seriously. Double whammy of lumbar injury (instant scrutiny for malingering) and being a woman (surely it doesn’t hurt that much, must be all in your head) Shithouse Dave fucked around with this message at 07:10 on Mar 6, 2023 |

bike tory posted:RIP to an absolute icon, Georgina Beyer i worked on a tv show with an interview with her, an absolutely clueless UK comedian asking the q's, and was shocked at just how patient she was with him even after probably being asked the basics of her story a million times. it somehow ended up being a kinda good scene with some nice moments, if you ignored her conversation partner. she was a star. p.s. an 80s toyota is a bad example, i drove an 86 corona that did not die, ever, and didn't rust either, somehow. only got rid of it when i left nz. i miss it!

i think it makes sense to reboot it for a fresh election season so the thread can start with all of us bitching about the election and end with all of us bitching about the government.

On the last two nights on my walk home from work, I was accosted by a grey kitten who ran up to me and demanded pats and alternated between biting my hand and rubbing its face against me. I know that letting cats prowl is really irresponsible but I can't help but pet the cat for ten minutes.

Yeah idk what the hold up is, maybe they need a certain % of members to take part for it to be valid? Otherwise we'd have to strike at a different time as PPTA which would just be embarrassing.
