Solemn Sloth posted:If you go private for birth you should only even consider doing it at a private that’s co-located with a good public hospital like Frances Perry (womens) or Jessie Mac (Monash) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Seriously, if anything goes even slightly wrong, especially with the baby, you will probably end up being transferred, as Private Hospitals always seem to be missing a Pediatric or Neonate dept or other necessary unit. They don't have people on 24 hours to respond to emergencies of that sort most of the time. I'm sure this is 100% about keeping staffing and insurance costs down by making sure that nobody is in a position to die on campus, but it's something you need to consider. Their business model is smashing out day surgeries, sections and the odd ~Natural Birth~ if that's in vogue at the time, not dealing with actual complicated medical problems. Private Health is a loving joke. If you go anywhere that doesn't share a location with a public hospital and something goes sideways, you're going to be thrown into an ambulance before someone misses their golf game. Just go public, but do some research and find a hospital that isn't juggling beds or permanently on bypass because that can suck. My partner was in spurious labour for 5 days with our first, and both of the hospitals we presented at refused to admit her and induce because they didn't want to give up a bed for someone who wasn't >6cm dilated, and she ended up bleeding out and needing like 4 units of blood as a result. We went to a different public hospital the second time and they were fantastic, even when things didn't go to plan.

Oh yeah so the MUA WA disassociated themselves from Unions WA aka the only trades and labour peak body in the state over that loving disaster of a state ALP conference, which is extra spicy because Unions WA and the ALP are entirely seperate entities in tyool 2019, making Christy Caine's decision to take his bat and ball and go home an absolutely loving galaxy brain decision, my boy. When even the union movement can't even loving work together because pissy old men get offended that maybe having a second container port is more important than defending the fragile sensibilities of a bunch of other old men who might need to drive an extra 15 minutes to work, then what the gently caress hope do the ALP themselves ever have of not publically making GBS threads themselves every day ending with y.

No the question you should be asking is "then who the gently caress do they represent", because it's sure as not working people, women, the disabled, farmers, or anyone who stands to lose out in a recession... Is it culture warrior idiots? Specific party donors? Rupert Murdoch? Self-funded retirees? I feel like a real opposition party should be scoring hit after hit on these weirdos but naaaahhhh better let em do their thing aye.

the government explicitly not spending money on economic stimulus while simultaneously depressing wages and cutting public sector jobs for the sake of providing a budget surplus, widely considered a useless performance metric when borrowing rates are at near 0, is actually fantastic. I am a very intelligent news man.

I am interested in purchasing the latest Quarterly Essay for her article on male/female workplace relations and hypocrisy, but don't want to support the work of someone with neoliberal brainspiders. Something that people really seem to struggle with is the concept that almost all celebrities are neoliberal horror shows, on account of being rich and wanting to remain rich. There are a handful of exceptions, most of whom aren't even meaningfully rich. But TV personalities definitely have way more money than you, and would happily see you crushed if it means they get to keep their lifestyle going.

Thing is poo poo like that sounds insane until suddenly it's 2019 and it isn't. People were saying similar things about that WH aide who was doing it for the cameras during the Mueller clown show, and fairly, others were calling them crazy paranoids. Then she did it again, really obviously and with no other plausible explanation. And then the WH started making really obvious 1488 references and putting kids in cages. I think in this case it's probably a strange coincidence, but also this is the hellworld timeline where poo poo has thoroughly gone off the rails, and you shouldn't discount anything, particularly not with the Morrisons cosying up to the Trump's.

So we're agreed then - the wife of the white supremacist prime minister probably didn't drop a popular white supremacist signal that nobody has used frequently in its original context since the 1980s on purpose. Glad we cleared that up!

Dire Lemming posted:Now tell us what you think of the swastika. Also your example is bad, scratching your nose is an action with a purpose hence why people do it in their sleep. I'm sceptical that the gesture was intentional here but the "we must not surrender the ok symbol to white supremacists" argument and its derivations are always bad. Your need to use the ok symbol is far outweighed by the need of the victims of white supremacy to recognise and call it out. White supremacists chose it specifically because people like you would defend it and them by extension. The innocuousness is the entire point. Yeah it's the classic "I'M NOT RACIST YOU'RE RACIST" defence. Keep it even slightly deniable or deflectable and you can be as out and proud as you drat well wish.
