Well yes, that’s literally the way Conservative governments operate, you’re catagorised as one of them if you’re in the club as a hard working ,upstanding citizen and you’re a grifter if not. They have no time for people they see as “grifters”, which is most people.
The politics of envy sees many who suffer under conservatives vote for them in the hope they too can have somone to look down upon when they are "successful "…any day now.
I hope it languishes around 3-4% at most, if it does get 7%-10% enshitification inevitably ensues and it will grow more and get worse
The greatest voice in rock 'n roll of course
I love Noddy Holders (lead singer of Slade) anecdote on on Graham Nortons show saying he was paid money in Germany multiple times to shit on a glass table while a dude was underneath.
Who keeps voting for this idiot? he’ll only be replaced by somone who has seen his success and do the same thing.

Yes, 55 Percent of White Women Voted for Trump. No, I’m Not Surprised.

I own 1 Spyderco knife :)
Any recommendations for bushcraft style knives ? Pocket or otherwise.
Universities seem to have lost their way , trying to be a business instead of being a University
But maybe thats the future?
Aside rom Cars my grief always and every time comes from pedestrians with dogs. Dogs on one side of the path, owner on the other, with a taut leash between them, multiple dogs and twisted leads, large dogs with older small woman owners who are unable to control them and they get pulled along where the dog wants to go Dig taking a shit in the middle if the path while I wait this morning for another example.
Just this morning on a shared path, 3 lots of people with dogs that were unable to control them properly necessitating me swerving off the path or coming to a complete stop while they try to get the shit show of crossed or twisted leads sorted. This does not mean all dogs and owners but a significant %.
That’s awesome, well done !
Maybe. I voted again the Republic (bit for The Voice) not because I’m a monarchist but the proposal for how it was to be setup was bullshit. Now we have to endure that shitball King visiting, so there is that.
How to vidoes for better Map editing ? Had to make a bunch of corrections to new.MTB trails near me and am I sure.
Cop31 is a chance to redefine ourselves from climate laggard to global leade
No it isn’t, such foolish, ney stupid thinking.
The entire COP process has been co-opted by fossil fuel interests and is now irrelevant , we’re a massive exporter of fossil fuels and have zero interest in moving foward to zero emissons, voters will never tolerate not being able to fly and told they can’t drive cars, stop owing meat eating pets etc
If we wanted to be “leaders” we’d not be holding the Olympics in Australia, not be spending billions expanding Brisbane, Melbourne and Hobart airports, we’d have abandoned all new road projects and only be building PT and AT infrastructure and be closing coal mines and gas extraction and redoing society for low energy dependence, while starting managed abandonment of coastlines and Northern Australia.
Just stick to denial and useless tokenism with a few solar panels and ecars like other developed countries and stop with the hypocrisy.

Boyd said: “There’s no place in the climate negotiations for fossil-fuel companies. There is no place in the plastic negotiations for plastic manufacturers. It just absolutely boggles my mind that anybody thinks they have a legitimate seat at the table.
“It has driven me crazy in the past six years that governments are just oblivious to history. We know that the tobacco industry lied through their teeth for decades. The lead industry did the same. The asbestos industry did the same. The plastics industry has done the same. The pesticide industry has done the same.”
Guy yesyerday on Whirlpool saying he had to replace the tyres on his BMW i4, at 40,000km. He was shocked :)
The new like for like tyres were $2500 (in Australian banana dollars).
Tyre pollution is a real killer and made much worse with EVs :(
If I can’t walk there, I don’t go.
Is that a Tram in the background ?
I’ve never even browed the local feed on the Masro server I’m on.
Just pick a non mainstream one that has been around for a bit ?
I use Fedilab, Megalodon and Rodent.
I haven’t found out how but that would be a kewl feature as I have wanted to a couple times. e.g how to browse all the communities on aussie.zone from my instance on slrpnk.net ?
Neither firi trains.
We solved this a loooong time ago, put some wires up ffs.
Which let’s them run the line at the next election about being tough on crime and only they are up to the task. Win win /s
