I did exactly the same thing with my Brisbane post bot yesterday.

Anyone got any tips or suggestions for trying to figure out the child care subsidy?
Best I can do is have you look at this and try out the calculator but only use it as a rough estimate.

Got the date right at least. Good enough!

I was talking to my partner about my school years, the stupid shit we got up to at my public school, and how it differs from his experience at a private Catholic school (prep to year 12).
I remember one of the boys in my French class locking our Mauritian teacher out of the classroom multiple times, then he threw a banana at the ceiling fan causing it to splatter around.
I also remember a fight where one kid picked up a drain cover and smashed it over the head of the other kid.
And Olivia Penpraze. I went to primary school and highschool with her, before she changed schools. We weren't friends, but we have experienced very similar things, and I wonder how close we could have been, and how easily our places could have been swapped.
Just memories and regrets now.
RIP Olivia.
On the last point, it's always really fucked how that goes, and I hope it doesn't weigh on you too much. When that 16 year old kid was murdered at Sunshine station (and also the 14 year old who was murdered in St Albans near Ginnifer station) it really affected me because I'm also 16, and I've been in the exact same place at almost the same time of day as they were. I've walked to and from train stations at the same time as they did, there was fuck all difference between us, and had the murderers gone after me instead of them, I would've been the one who died, not them

I'm too tired for this, bot. Had a slight crisis of day-of-week, hahahah.
May be procrastinating writing again.
I saw the thread, thought the bot worked, then saw the confessions in the comments. Not very good at cover-ups are we?
