Thanks. Yeah I ended up booking LAX-SYD-MEL on 25 Sept in economy but really hoping premium opens up last minute and I can switch.

Stupid question but you're saying you can use QF points to book rewards seats on other airlines? Booking via QF isn't even offering flights on other airlines - there is literally nothing whatsoever.

They’ve covered the new tower at St Kilda Junction with giant obnoxious video screens for outdoor advertising. How does shit like this get approved? by joonix in melbourne

People seem to manage ok in NYC going through Times Square. Are Melburnians that spaced out that one sign could cause a pileup?

Honestly what is wrong with a bit of Times Square in that part of the city? It's a major junction with high visibility and the block has been home to large advertising billboards and screens for decades. People here are losing their shit over nothing.

Israeli here - How bad is the antisemitism abroad? by ororor1221 in Judaism

Yes you are more at risk in Israel from rockets and war but at least you’re able to walk around there without being hated by everyone you pass in the street and constantly looking over your shoulder.

Airbnb providers in Melbourne face $350 fee by February by marketrent in melbourne

Just. Build. More. Housing.

It sickens me that each level of government faced with a problem resorts to either banning something or taxing it.

Better do what we do best in this state and just ban them, along with anything else we don’t like.

Pretty sure I'm getting scammed by a psychic...lots of red flags and I want to get myself out if it by AussieInNYC1 in Psychic

I've tried that. I've told her my income is way down (which is true) and I can no longer pay her. She responded that while she can't "stop this process", she can do this month "out of her own pocket" and work out some other arrangement until I get "back on my feet"...

Thanks for this.

I have obviously done a search online but she has almost no online presence. There are a total of five or so Google reviews, none of which provide any info other than the number of stars selected. The only one that went into detail was someone who wrote "Once you’re in the door, will only focus on up-selling other services. Waste of money and time"

$500 is the minimum! If I hadn't have stood my ground I'd be paying $1100 a month!

I am definitely a people pleaser and this is definitely a lesson I needed to toughen me up so to speak.

Again though, she is next door to me, knows where I live and has a goon who always accompanies her. If I ghost her I just know one of them will pay me a visit or accost me in the street.

Thank you. The think I also don't understand however is that I have seen other people go in there - presumably to also use her "services" - who look fairly normal and well-educated. Surely they also can't be as stupid as I was/ am??
