My previous account was @dumblederp@aussie.zone I left it because Rowling has turned out to be a pretty shitty person and I don't want the association.

Mostly I'm just here for idle friendly conversation over shared interests.

I can get caught up in my own stubbornness on some topics.

  • Australian sprint star Gout Gout will not race at 2026 Commonwealth Games [because he's focusing on the world under-20 championships in August]

    Jump

  • But the initials of GG are great for a champion athlete.

  • [Video] Australian police violently beat up protester with his hands up at demonstration against Israeli president Isaac Herzog visiting.

  • Freaked out or was itching to punch someone? Lots of thugs go into these jobs for this exact reason.

  • Australia in danger of becoming an ‘artless country’ as enrolments in creative courses collapse

    Jump

  • I get that it's not all on the store but I can buy a dozen eggs and a loaf of bread for $10, making 6-12 breakfasts. Sure they're not as fancy as a cafe but it's $10+minimal effort vs $150. Getting to the cafe is more effort than cooking the breakfast, cos I live in the dull outer suburbs.

  • It's too expensive to be an artist in this country. Used to be able to work a few shifts somewhere to earn enough for food, rent, art and a drink from time to time. Now a full time job barely pays enough to rent a shoebox. The soul crushing boot of neolibralism strikes again.

  • Better buy European: Trump ‘kill switch’ fears grow over Australia’s $17 billion F-35 fleet

    Jump

  • I reckon Australia should cancel all these expensive military hardware deals with USA. They're no longer a reliable participant in the contract. Write off whatever money has been paid as grift and be done with it.

  • Homeland Security Spying on Reddit Users

    Jump

  • I got banned for suggesting Americans arm themselves. Reddit is complicit.

  • ‘Take them away, crush them’: Australia faces an ebike surge that some say poses a health emergency

    Jump

  • I have heard this from multiple people even when I worked at a liquor store. That when you are on an upper or something that gives you speed that you cannot get drunk. Is this true? And how?

    Jump

  • Bouncer 18 years - You might not feel drunk, but you're still drunk. You're just making high-octane stimulant-assisted bad decisions.

  • ‘Take them away, crush them’: Australia faces an ebike surge that some say poses a health emergency

  • We need to invest in bike infrastructure.

    EDIT:

    I think Australia should be considering a pathway to licensing and regulation for these e-motorbikes. A course to learn the laws, roadworthy rules, registration, vehicle lights (indicators, tail, stop, front, high beam), minimum helmet requirements, etc.

    Used appropriately, they’re great devices.

    Probably more importantly, develop actual micro-mobility infrastructure to allow any gross vehicle mass under ~200kg it’s own proper “roads” where they’re not interacting with cars or pedestrians, esp trucks, kids and dogs.

    Currently bikes are mostly forced to deal with one or the other, which draws ire from the public because of the general fuck anyone who affects me in any negative manner attitude we seem to have fostered about transit.

  • Can One Nation turn its polling hype into seats in parliament? History shows it will struggle

    Jump

  • ... because the media owners are in on it. Don't forget though Scomo got in.

  • Australian universities to be graded on how well they deal with protests under antisemitism report card

    Jump

  • For legal reasons I might've been talking about other genocides.

  • Australian universities to be graded on how well they deal with protests under antisemitism report card

    Jump

  • You can be against genocide and not antisemitic.

  • Gatrs got a disease from Epstein Island. Fuck microslop.

  • This is my Jellyfin Cyberpunk collection - need more

    Jump

  • Johnny Mnemonic was the most like cp2020 movie I've seen.

  • HELLDIVERS 2 has a big new event to take down the Automatons and you get tanks

    Jump

  • I lost interest when the warbond grind got away from me. I don't have the time to chase down 1000 super credits per warbond. Now that I'm ten+ behind I've moved on to other games. They should discount them after six months or something as I'm not likely to return to the game otherwise.

    Dalai Lama met Jeffrey Epstein in 2012, was named 169 times in new emails

    Jump

  • Mahayanan Buddhism absolutely has pedo issues that are handled in similar ways as in other major religions. The teachings may be noble but the teachers not necessarily so.

    Edit: That said the Dalai Lama is an incredibly public and monitored person wherever he travels. Any references about him in the Epstein files would be able to be checked against where he was in the world at that time.

  • Battlefield 6. But Kushner and Windows 11 are not for me.

    Battlefront 2. Australia doesn't have enough people to populate kyber servers.

  • To my fellow ADHDers, how do you make yourselves engage with your hobbies?

    Jump

  • Oh I just collect the things needed for the hobby. I don't actually do the hobby.
