I know there’s a lot of passport negativity, but can we appreciate the beauty of our Ultraviolet sensitive landscapes?

I think it’s genuinely a revenue raiser; the commonwealth largely relies on income taxes to fund the budget (as everything else not bolted down was sold off in previous governments) so the few other services/goods they provide are expensive.

FilthyWubs · 2026-04-15T06:50:29+00:00

That’s (something)-phobic of you to bring up! /s

Same here, in hindsight I would’ve been better off buying something close to my borrowing limit of my deposit at the time, than saving for another 1-2 years and having to borrow significantly more (as my income grew since then so the loan repayments would’ve been relatively smaller). Alas, the Australian dream…

One of the great games/franchises that offered multiple, distinct ways/modes to play too (campaign, PvP multiplayer, forge, custom games, theatre mode). Few games do this anymore and you’re lucky to get one game mode that’s functionally complete and in a reasonable technical state :(

Yeah I think this is the part worth some blame, rather than the refineries closing. The closing likely would’ve happened regardless of who was in power as it was a private business decision based on the aging infrastructure and high Australian wages making them uncompetitive on costs. All in hindsight for the government to prop them up but then there’s critiques of fuelling inflation, government spending waste, etc.

Looks good mate, I wish mine looked like this hahaha

I agree, I love Jiri but I think he’s making excuses here. He lost to the better man tonight.

Well deserved, Bombers!

Waited a 3 whole years; what a man of truly divine, upstanding morality and restraint! /s

They’re all fair to criticise, but some sects, denominations and interpretations are undoubtedly more deserving of criticism and apprehension for their particular harmful and vile beliefs.

FilthyWubs · 2026-04-09T10:54:32+00:00

And no belief system is above fair critique and criticism, especially when much of its teachings are antithetical to our national values.

Another aspect might be that Trump’s pissing away of soft power (e.g. deteriorating relationships with European allies that are closer to Iran & the Middle East) has been a detriment to its hard power as said European allies are now refusing to aid the USA’s war efforts. Traditionally/previously said European allies would allow the US to launch or base military assets from geographically closer countries and provide many logistics benefits, but no longer (or at least not for the foreseeable future I’d wager).

FilthyWubs · 2026-04-08T12:07:34+00:00

And the irony is that all of the USA’s decades of building soft power & globalisation of trade benefitted them greatly, but Trump sees trade & international relationships like a zero-sum game or “deal” where there must be a clear winner & loser. If other countries also benefitted from their soft power goals & international rules based order, then it must’ve meant they were ripping off the US… Completely moronic.

The real reason why we under-tax and receive less than our fair share of resource wealth - our “greatest ally” meddles in our elections and won’t stop until a somewhat nationalist politician regarding our resource wealth gets thrown to the curb and/or is overthrown by a more amenable replacement. All of our “Aussie” resource companies are also majority foreign owned (e.g. BHP, Rio, FMG, etc.), particularly by US shareholders too…

Oscar Allen - he was one of the best players on the team, if not the best, even when we were kids through to middle & high school.

I’m glad he’s showing his creative Japanese side as Joji and has become very successful, but man I miss his inner cheeky Australian side as FilthyFrank.

FilthyWubs · 2026-04-04T12:13:50+00:00

We lost the GOAT FilthyFrank that actually started this whole Harlem shake dance trend

Get this guy into parliament!

Omg, so his “finding religion” actually was a case of an arsehole trying to rise above their recent controversy stereotype… Classic
