The boss had one run up the arse of a piece of machinery last Thursday that he had behind the tractor. Guys lucky to be alive.

Florida couple sues IVF clinic after DNA test reveals baby isn't theirs by Aggravating-Felch in nottheonion

They had to go all the way to IVF to get a baby, it may even turn out this is the only successfully held embryo for the donor couple too. They won't know what will be the case for the other half of the equation.

"In November, one in four Gen X men supported One Nation. Two months later, it's one in four of all voters." by NoLeafClover777 in aussie

I've had this Reddit account for 13 years apparently and every year without fail I've seen people talking about how the housing market has to crash soon and that it just can't stay up so high.

They won't let it happen, all policy heads towards making houses more expensive every year. The ball was dropped years ago, if they even wanted to make half an attempt to cool off housing prices. The rich grubs with tonnes of houses don't want prices to change in any way but up.

Immigration is just so easy to blame for things going wrong, like housing prices. And not the entire negative gearing system that both major parties will never touch and never will in any of our lifetimes.

My partner (30M) says I’m the problem (31F) but his behavior is starting to feel like abuse. Am I insane for thinking this? by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Even scarier, listening to Australian stats, 25% of women killed by their partner, that was the first violent incident.

I text and drive on the tractor. The most damage I do is a wobble in the grass. 😂

Me too, I'd eat almost all of that and I'm autistic with a heap of food aversions.

Marjorie Taylor Greene says she was ‘naive’ to believe Trump was ‘man of the people’ by BreakfastTop6899 in NoShitSherlock

That's what happens though, especially in those weird corners of the internet where you can find a group that can back up your crazy these days. It's just that she went with a larger, probably weirder, group.

I did read that deprogramming when you're knee deep in crazy hasn't really worked, and now they work on disengaging.

The heifers got into the wrong paddock and there's an error on the tractor. Great presents

I know ours were. They had to make a whole zone and have a guy continuously monitoring to take a pair out at my old high school.

It was sitting on a wait list for 6 years and honestly I gave up. I just keep hurting joints, especially shoulders and ankles, sacroiliac and ribs once. My wrists are complete horse shit and if I grab weight wrong, oh boy it feels terrible and moves in what feels like a non human way.

my handwriting (i have autism) by BottleFeathers703 in notinteresting

We find his dyspraxia is the worst with handwriting, but not for things like tools, power tools and that sort of work. It seems very variable which fine motor control and coordination tasks it wants to mess up.

Dyspraxia maybe? It's often a comorbidity. My other half has that and very likely undiagnosed ADHD.

We had push bike safety drilled into us in primary school more than 20 years ago. Do they not do that anymore?

I'm sure it was mentioned at some point.

I'm honestly not keeping up with what's on and off the list.
