Yes that will be expensive.

As with the dog's breakfast of the US health system, it won't actually be that expensive if we cut out the middleman and provide public healthcare. A lot of things provide a positive return on investment for society but too many people are still too blinded by bootstrap bullshit and post-war boomer mentality.

How the fuck are people expected to have kids when they need to work work work just to live. So many people can barely support themselves, much less be expected to support two other individuals. And it is two because all these articles keep harping on about the "replacement rate". No one in power seems to want to do anything to actually help aside from funneling more taxes into corporate leeches with increasing subsidies.

Surprisingly Hobart hasn't increased as much. I'm still amazed that the median rent is higher than Melbourne. Especially taking into account the lower salaries here.

FFXIV.

Not sure about ESO and SWTOR. I know WoW has the token market that technically counts as turning money into power by selling tokens and buying clears.

Should've seen that coming from a mile away.

It definitely makes you wonder why we need a Voice when the plans, structure, and hierarchy is already in place.

So that there is a permanent Aboriginal presence in govt that cannot be removed at the whims of the sitting govt. I know the wording says the composition and appointees can be determined by parliament but the body must always be there. The symbolism is the important part. Something visible, not hidden away amongst the various govt departments.

Wow a proper apology. Poor bot will never make it as a politician or exec.

I saw the thread, thought the bot worked, then saw the confessions in the comments. Not very good at cover-ups are we?

Didn't ask me for verification.

Twitter, also known as X Corp, no longer has a media relations office.
Reuters could not immediately reach Twitter's Australia office for comment.

Are they no longer even replying with the poop emoji? Damn those staff cuts must be drastic.

Because your corporate overlords believe that if you can build a connection to your workplace and colleagues, they can guilt you into producing more value for less pay out of some misguided sense of loyalty. A job is a transaction. They don't give a shit about you, you don't need to give a shit about them.
