I don't think it's a subscription like those share cars, I think it's like high turnover car leasing. Which would be worthwhile to some people, I guess like seasonal or short contract workers or musicians or something who might want a station wagon some weeks but prefer a Barina the rest of the time?

I'm not seeing it.


I googled the etymology of "niggling" and there's people saying people use it in racist ways but it's not inherently a racist word as far as I can tell either - it's scandi apparently?

There is a real strong relation, outside of "technically"

English is a very vast language because we begged, borrowed and stole from every other language we encountered, there's bound to be some gently caress-ups by association. I once told a French colleague I was glad it was hump day and he got very cagey because I guess he thought I was coming on to him. You don't need to be offended all the time. But I expect that the marketing department will issue an apology and get rapped over the knuckles all the same.

Reef slush fund came out of the childcare budget apparently

https://twitter.com/KKeneally/status/1026432786322735107

@KKeneally: Today the @afr reports that @TurnbullMalcolm quietly cut $440m from childcare in the May budget.
Yet 🎩 found $444m to give to his banking & mining mates at @GBRFoundation — in the very same budget.
How out of touch is Mr Turnbull? Does he think we won’t notice such things? https://t.co/8VSe8i3HKn

They know it's a loss, they're just looting what they can now.

I used the eat now website to order from our favourite Indian joint because I was having a day where talking on the phone was too much, and they gave us a big angry rant about not using it. I feel like their anger was misplaced.

If you think they would allow a policy to exist that would limit the powers that be from polluting and making big bucks from the effort you're kidding yourself. We're already at the end of the line here, go hard or go home (hint: you can't, it's on fire or underwater)
