There's also lots of slightly hippie, vegetable growing, hobby farm people that live out bush and pretty much don't believe in medicine. My wife works in horticulture and there are tonnes of them.

Tomberforce posted:Yeah it's true, this is basically our demographic and I have to say I do sometimes enjoy emphasising that 'obviously both our kids are vaccinated' and implying they're a loving dumbass if their kids aren't. Fortunately there are plenty of us who are sensible in that regards too. Growing nice food is fun and everything but the crossover with antivax crazies shits me no end. Growing food is great, I probably shouldn't have included that, it's just that I know of two people who travelled to Canberra from Victoria to take part in the cooker protests who are both way into "self sufficiency" *edit* Man, Pell got done in by a hip replacement.

I figured that nobody will ask him to resign because of doing something hosed when he was 21 so he will talk to Jewish groups and say sorry some more and it will blow over. I doubt anyone that would vote for him would think it was anything more than a youthful indiscretion that didn't hurt anyone at the time. It's funny that he said it caused him anxiety, like an I Know What You Did Last Summer situation or something.

Comstar posted:Whats the best way to get a mortgage these days- go directly to the bank (or credit union!) or via a mortgage broker? We used a broker who was a friend of my sister in law. If we had to find one on our own I would have been a bit lost because its hard to compare them and you're trusting them a fair bit. They handle a lot of stuff and will usually know decent conveyancers and inspection people etc. I hate trying to organise things and fill in forms so broker was very valuable for me.

Bucky Fullminster posted:I wonder if Lidia Thorpe is going to end up following a bit of a Tulsi Gabbard trajectory. I may be misremembering but I think Gabbard is an amoral, power hungry, political opportunist Modi worshipper that grew up in and may still be involved in some kind of cult. I think Lidia Thorpe would struggle to get on that level. She probably has beliefs but is a born poo poo stirrer unsuited to party politics

It's pretty good that the terfs are being publicly lumped in with the Nazis and a liberal politician (who is now facing an expulsion vote) in Victoria.

Aware posted:I'm attending lessons at a local orthodox Christian church ahead of my wedding in order to become a part of the church to get married there and as a long time agnostic it is cool and chill and interesting and full of history. I've learned a lot and enjoyed it so far. I'm a Catholic and married an orthodox person in an orthodox church and I didn't have to do anything extra as the two churches are cool with each other I guess. Would have been nice to learn a bit about it though, it's very different to the modern Catholic church, probably more like it was pre Vatican II

It's been nice to see a few articles about how this highlights the problems with Australia's Anzac mythology and military worship. You kind of hope people might feel more free to question that stuff and not get hounded out of the country now.

abigserve posted:fwiw I don't know a single millennial that bought a house with their own money either, I think the smallest cash injection I've yet heard of was like 200k from their parents with some of my wifes fancy-pants school friends getting like a cool mil. It's more like "45% of millennials don't own a house, and another N% could never have afforded one in the current economy if they weren't spooned by their parents". There's an absolutely huge transfer of wealth from middle income earners and early retirees into the hands of fuckwits real estate cunts basically. Missus and I bought a small 2br house last year, at age 40, with no help. Outer suburbs of Melbourne. We are DINK with a combined income slightly above the median. Thing is, if other millennials were as tight arsed as I am in saving money the economy would probably collapse. So just get a high paying job, never spend any money and don't have kids Also I guess I'm only just in the millennial age bracket

In think a lot of people listen to QAA because it's light hearted entertainment most of the time. They don't really focus on who Q is as a person, but more on its (and other cults and conspiracists) effects on society.

Ghost Leviathan posted:At this point it's pretty much a contest between who realises it's a massive white elephant and city-destroying grift vs who wants at this point mostly imaginary prestige and clout. The negative reality of hosting an Olympics, who it really benefits, and the corruption involved in bidding and the IOC is more widely known than it used to be. There's a pretty big anti Olympics organisation for the LA games. It's probably in decline as far as what governments are willing to spend on it, but sports are still a pretty powerful and bankable spectacle.
