Death throes of a dying empire. The values that made it great being discarded in the attempt to hold power. Same as every single empire from Egypt Byzantine Roman and mongol and others.

State Election 2026 β€” Adelaide Park Lands Association State Election 2026 - Vote for your Park Lands

This is a starting spot for me - The notion that they will bulldoze sections of the parklands and lay new tarmac for a race that the riders dont think will ever be suitable annoys me. And dont mention Saudi backed asshole golfers. www.adelaide-parklands.asn.au/state-electi...

Luckily we already thought the NACC was utterly corrupted or this would have been a real shock.

The NACC's view here is even funnier when you consider it's about a bloke who secretly appointed himself to multiple roles and thought no-one would find out.

Straw man - Wikipedia

By the way here's the wiki on straw man argument, which is extrapolating someones position to a stupid degree and then shooting down that position you just made up - it is relevant to you - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

Nutjob - If lamenting on the massive waste of war and its environmental destruction is the equivalent of suggesting that an individual is not allowed to use any resources themselves, then clearly the resources expended keeping your brain going have been wasted.

If you're a small cog, too bad. Work in a critically underfunded department? Bullied? Harassed? At risk of being fired for ideological reasons? The boss doesn't want to know, but it's on you to get it right because you'll hang in their place, either way.

It will be historically significant that the Albanese government decided to spend its enormous political capital not on addressing systemic inequality but on mindless fealty to the demands of the United States and Israel. That is how it'll be remembered.

Being "quietly alarmed" is what the moderate Liberals used to do all the time, right up until they all lost their seats. Grow a spine or don't bother.

So disorganised clueless rabble is disorganised and clueless as expected. Add a touch of macho sports bloke and it would have been incendiary.

Been really getting into makeup tutorials lately, and I know Canavan loves a bit of coal cosplay

Glad you can ignore that possibility and focus on looking after yourself. There is plenty darkness to bring us down. We have escaped to the hills to see some green.
