  • I second this, if you are unsure of what direction to take, get a job that is easy. Something simple like grocery store, deli, etc. If you have the intelligence for higher education you will excell at simple jobs, get in a groove doing your daily taks and you will probably get promoted through the ranks while you figure out what direction you want to take in life.
    If i lost my job tomorrow (professional technical career) i would seriously consider becoming barista and living stress free for a while and not rush to figure out my ‘next move’.






  • Public healthcare
    Super annuation
    Preferential & compulsory voting
    No tipping culture
    Consumer protection laws
    Gun control laws
    Weather service isnt privitised
    Wide variety of multicultural foods
    Farming sector isnt controlled by a few companies (ie chickens)/subsidy schemes (looking at you corn)
    Organised religion has less participation and dropping steadily
    Adoption of rooftop solar systems

    Also significantly less instances of tech billionares, team factional politics, media oligarchs & donald trumps.

    There are a lot of areas we could do better and are ashamed of though.


  • Chilli con carne + rice
    Spaghetti bolognese
    Lasagna
    Spinach & ricotta canneloni
    Slow cooked braised beef & penne
    Thai green curry + rice
    Slow cooked butter chicken + rice
    Slow cooked lamb korma + rice
    Soups (pumpkin, potato & leek, pea & ham, etc)

    Also we tend to freeze batches of leftovers without pasta/rice as it saves a lot of space in the freezer and throwing some fresh rice or pasta is little effort while the frozen meal container defrosts (fresh rice & pasta is much better, but frozen does work for a true reheat-only meal)






  • I for one fully support the hacking, social engineering, or any underhanded ways to get into the accounts of these people and fucking with them back.
    Seriously how fragile do you have to be to systematically remove all references of accomplishments, compassion and consideration to anyone who doesnt look like you? Whether they are another gender, race, sexual orientation, political ideology or whatever makes you feel insecure, you deserve for people to also say ‘you know what, maybe i will come and fuck up your shit and see how you feel about it’.

    Honestly it does feel like too many lines have and are being crossed that it will force this tit for tat retaliation, which will just escalate until things get dire. However in the end do you let them keep getting away with destroying societal norms and rules or does it come to full political & class war to stop them before they invade poland and france?

    Either way there is a heartbreaking certainty for the future of america, a lot of suffering for people of all walks of life.

    …except maybe the billionaires.


  • Im not sure about other countries but something to take note of is that American ‘light’ beers are light flavour, not ABV%.
    In Australia a ‘light’ beer is usually around 3.5% ABV, but intended to taste like normal beer (i say intended because usually they taste more watery).

    So i personally think a bit of the hate on American beers if that they seem to be fans of the ‘light’ flavours more, (ie prevalence of Bud light, Miller Lite, etc.) and they generally taste a lot like soda water to the non-american beer drinker that is used to a lot more body and/or bitterness.
