I haven't been in Woolworths for a while given there's a Coles nearby, but gently caress me do Woolworths like recording everything you do.

Went to one this morning and the self-checkout beeped at me and said to call an employee*. So I called one over and she scanned her ID card and replayed the video from a camera directly overhead which I hadn't even seen - and distinct from the camera pointing at my face - to rewind and ID what I'd put in my bags.

I wonder if they use the same video surveillance package the casino uses.

Is there anything more dehumanizing. Hard enough to deal with disability poo poo without having to pretend to be loving grateful about it.

"Hmm, how can we take away even more dignity from our clients?"

Meanwhile, some oval office in a suit is using "gratitude" quotes to get a six figure bonus.

Given the last few years in Ukraine I'm not sure that Russia has been preparing for the combat aspects of war, let alone that stuff.

And the only thing the Chinese military is good for is brutalising their own populations and harassing Vietnamese fishing boats.

Note that the photo on the right isn't actually the source photo that was used for the 'shopped image, her pose is almost exactly the same but her face is turned slightly further away from the camera.

If you do a google image search for her then this cropped photo from the same photo session used to be one of the first images that came up before all this:

..... which matches the pose exactly, and seems to be the photo that Ch9 used for their graphic. Why they used generative fill to 'expand' the image rather than just downloading a different photo is a mystery.

hey instead of bike paths can we post about how the state of tasmania should be dissolved (fyi: child sex abuse related):

https://www.themonthly.com.au/issue/2024/february/nick-feik/rotten-core#mtr

tl;dr is that the entire policing, justice, health, education and political structure of tasmania is a matryoshka doll of bureaucratic laziness, pride, corruption, and looking after your small town mates, with the smallest russian doll at the centre being rampant institutional child abuse.

Nothing's changed since the loving 70s.

When did the chaser become right wing? They’ve spent a good twenty minutes on their America show talking about how it’s too easy to claim asylum; super predators are coming across illegally; and undocumented migrants are ruining the joint; and their solution is to shut the border and stop processing asylum claims.

Weren't they all rich kids from private schools?

Because that's your answer right there.

The front page of The Age has the Greens talking about getting rid of negative gearing again.

Serious question - what would this mean for renters?

Increased rent? Kicked out and have the landlord's family move in? Or just kicked out and houses left empty out of spite?

Do they back off or double down? I assume double down, because there's a huge subset of dumbass who only knows the first half of the phrase "a few bad apples"

Cops should never be allowed at pride

Cops are why we have marches in the first place.

Genuinely surprised the cunts didn't cancel the parade.

"If our officers can't be in the parade, then there won't be one."

Naturally the Neville Chamberlains on the march committee would have immediately agreed.

There are vast swathes of people who don't live on the train lines who might want to ride / ferry home.

I never said to move *everyone* by ferry. I'm saying move the few thousand for whom it's suitable. Take them down the city, they'd beat the train every time. Take them to Manly and Rose Bay. People literally choose not to go to events at homebush because getting there sucks so much. And people leave the event 15 minutes early to avoid the massive crowds that swarm the station when it ends. Stop trying to pretend that the current situation is satisfactory.

I'm perfectly happy legalising drat near any drug you care to name.

I'd also like to remove tobacco, vapes and alcohol from casual sale because of the sheer levels of harm they do to those who use them and the people around them.

context mate

Matildas captain Sam Kerr called a police officer “a stupid white bastard” during a dispute over a taxi fare last year, UK newspaper The Sun has reported.

Kerr, who has pleaded not guilty and is fighting to have a charge of racially harassing the police officer thrown out of court, was reported to have been sick in the cab after a night out and is then alleged to have unleashed the slur when police arrived.

Britpol your cops are weak as piss

"White" as a slur, what pathetic cunts.
