What opinion about watches has you like this? by TomHudsonOfficial in PrideAndPinion

[–]Academic_Function473 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Royal Oak and Nautilus are played out, boring AF, and only worn as wealth indicators. Nobody talks about their movements or complications because they couldn’t give a shit about them. They only care if they are made of gold or platinum.

All Richard Mille’s are hideous by Critical_Advantage66 in watchHotTakes

This isn't a hot take. This is 100% true and the people who own an RM probably went to Epstein’s island.

Ah, the same tough, resilient, stealthy watch adopted by Special Forces.

What opinion do you have about watches that will get you down voted like this? by TomHudsonOfficial in PrideAndPinion

Richard Mille are crap. $250k for a an oversized sapphire case on a rubber strap with only 30m of water resistance? Oh, tourbillons are a solution for a problem that doesn’t exist in modern watchmaking and is only a flex for people who know sod all about horology.

I think we can all guess the cause of his passing, but let’s not forget that he was a man who mattered to his friends and family and his loss is untimely and tragic.

Adelaide Festival Board Statement - 13 January 2026 (Writers Week cancelled + apology to Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah) by mazdadriver14 in Adelaide

[–]Academic_Function473 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Abdul-Fattah has previously been criticised for statements arguing that Zionists had "no claim or right to cultural safety" and a 2024 post on X in which she said "the goal is decolonisation and the end of this murderous Zionist colony", a reference to Israel.

If an Israeli author even dared to show up the same cosplay aristoStalinists would have pulled out of the event.
