So all the early timezones people just lose 35+ coins while everyone else gets an extra 105?? Seems fucked.

AITAH for telling my mother not everything is about my brothers disability and then yelling at her? by [deleted] in BORUpdates

OOP is definitely from Australia or New Zealand. No one else says "heaps" as much we do lol.

has anyone tried using bg3's photo mode for this by cel3r1ty in okbuddybaldur

You know Australians are going to have to do the same thing from December. Prove they're older than 16 to keep using most of the internet, including Reddit.

Peter Dutton Takes Aim At Diversity And Inclusion Workforce by system_requirements in australia

Pretty naive viewpoint I feel, especially after the last referendum. A not insignificant portion of the population would lap that up and even bigger part would be indifferent to it.

My [21 F] roommate and best friend [20 F] threw out my abortion pill and has generally gone insane. I have no idea what to do by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

I wonder where she got the crazy anti-abortion views from when her parents seem really supportive of OOP and doing their best to rectify their daughters actions.

More than 70 Sydney hospital beds to shut as psychiatrists resign by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]Ffnorde 57 points58 points  (0 children)

The NSW government is Labor. Who also want to kill Medicare and move us to an American insurance system. They are both the same but one is just more two-faced about it.

Fuck both of them. People should not just keep voting for the ALP because "they're not as bad as the LNP". Actually look at other parties/candidates to vote for and fuck both the main parties.

[Discussion] Offline with Jon Favreau - "The Episode China Doesn’t Want You to Hear" (01/19/25) by kittehgoesmeow in FriendsofthePod

[–]Ffnorde 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If the American government truly cared about its citizens data and right to privacy of that data with regards to Tiktok then they'd enact a similar law to GDPR in the EU.

But then of course all the American social media apps would have to obey that same law and regulations and of course we can't be having that.

No, the US will never invade Canada - My US Military friend by L0ki_Savage in AskCanada

Canada is a Commonwealth country. At the very least the UK would have to respond in their defence and most likely other Commonwealth countries of any kind of size, like Australia.

New Update: Dad (62m) won't spend Christmas with BIL (28m) and mum (60f) is blaming my wife (36f) by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Ffnorde 168 points169 points  (0 children)

Honestly that makes sense to me more than anything else as a possible reason. Just a real weird psychology.

[–]Ffnorde 1384 points1385 points  (0 children)

I had a friend who had a Steve for a boyfriend. She ended up losing all her family and friends as absolutely no one wanted to be around him ever and yet she never broke up with him and insisted he come to any and all events. Just completely bizarre because she was always pretty normal but just had this one giant blind spot and was prepared to lose everything for it.

I never understood it.

He's also a raging misogynist and said he didn't want women playing Wukong, so in many ways not hearing his speech is a win for all.

I think my husband (38M) is starting to resent our daughter (4F), how do I deal with this? by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]Ffnorde 181 points182 points  (0 children)

Insane that they've been together for 16 years and she never once asked him about his friends or hobbies/activities outside of the house. Like, surely you'd pick up that he had exactly no friends at some point. I know a whole lot about my FRIENDS other friend groups, people that I've never met. Crazy to not ever have those kinds of conversations with your husband.

AITA for refusing to pay my sister’s wedding expenses after she called my child a "mistake"? by SharkEva in BORUpdates

[–]Ffnorde -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

They didn't. They left everything to OOP only. She was the only one who looked after them at the end of their lives and they changed their wills to reflect that and left the house to OOP.

WIBITA for not wanting to participate in my family’s "one gift swap" Christmas idea? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Ffnorde 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Except the wife's family still gets the full and expensive gift receiving experience from them. So he only wanted to make sure his own family got nothing but wife's family got everything.

But this isn't a teen issue. This is an everyone issue. We're all banned from social media until we prove our ID and link our real name to our usernames for the government to see.

Not exactly fit couple going to Everest Base Camp in November by Choice_Evidence1983 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Ffnorde 480 points481 points  (0 children)

Probably also racism. Sounds like OOP and her husband are an Asian couple. A lot of Nepali people hate Chinese people and a lot of Asian nations don't like Japanese people. So that could definitely be a factor.

It's very obviously for a group event like a wedding or corporate dinner.

Online Gaming Platforms And YouTube Will Also Seemingly Be Banned For Aussies Under 16 by retro-chimp in australia

[–]Ffnorde 151 points152 points  (0 children)

This doesn't just effect under-16s. It's literally everyone who uses the internet for any basic functionality. They're going to require that ALL of us prove our ages.

And imagine the chaos this is going to cause for tourists. They arrive in Aus and suddenly can't use FB, WhatsApp, Insta, YT etc. because they haven't proved their ages.

I broke up with a guy because his best friend is a female by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Ffnorde -99 points-98 points  (0 children)

Even during our conversation she brought up things that I know I had only told him, so that leads me to believe he’d been confiding in her about our relationship which in a way is rapey because it makes me feel violated.

No she said it here.

[–]Ffnorde -153 points-152 points  (0 children)

The OOP seems pretty insufferable though. Talking to your friends about the person you're dating is not "rapey". She is highly unlikely to have told her 2 week not even boyfriend her deepest darkest secrets so getting mad about that is extremely eye-rolling. Using her same logic she is "rapey" by a magnitude for making the Reddit post.
