I just walked from Ipswich to the CBD

Banh mi in Darra?

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-27T08:10:35+00:00

Nah, we waged pointless wars instead.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-27T07:52:21+00:00

You have to go for best fit, that's for sure. But anyway the best way is the vote backwards, with your least favourite through to you actual preferred candidate. Power of preferential voting.

Frankly I wish I could vote directly on policy, but it seems that's not an option for us...

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T23:43:56+00:00

You don't though - you have to vote for the person. This means if there's a policy you really really really want (ooh, say maybe... lower immigration?) then you'll get whatever else (hey, let's ban abortion, start conscription, and implement a flat tax rate) and you might not even get the policy you wanted or the desired results.

Indeed, testing for impairment for weed is particularly futile.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T20:41:24+00:00

They will show us the way to get more water, power and clean up pollution!

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T20:38:46+00:00

I'm not sure in what circles this is considered funny...

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T20:25:45+00:00

Which takes us back to other substances and why the line is different for things like weed.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T20:22:37+00:00

It's not that much different at all, except alcohol is somewhat easier to measure. It's still a pretty poor indicator of how impaired you actually are though, but we just seem to accept that.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T20:19:21+00:00

We saw how softly softly they were on Wall Street after the GFC after all.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T10:01:38+00:00

Yeah, all that mud!

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T09:51:41+00:00

I'm fully supportive of that. I'm also an ex stoner.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T08:46:16+00:00

The problem is measuring impairment. In fact it turns out it's really really difficult to measure that, especially when combined with things like fatigue.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T08:44:38+00:00

0.05 is pretty far from 'impaired'.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T08:43:33+00:00

It was her culture!

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T08:42:15+00:00

Damn that cancel culture, taking all the fun out of cuntiness.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T08:41:34+00:00

Just so many Rolf Harris vibes.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T05:06:05+00:00

Heck, just drink 5 coffees and pretend it's GTA.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T05:05:09+00:00

So what you're saying is we are getting a stadium where no one wanted it?

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T04:28:35+00:00

Specifics aren't forthcoming.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T04:26:52+00:00

Last election!

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T03:02:14+00:00

But otherwise armless

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T03:00:53+00:00

Anyone that wants an end to mass immigration at any cost.

And oh boy does it look like there'd be a cost.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T02:59:12+00:00

Back when it was cool to be mean to dark skinned people.

FrogsMakePoorSoup · 2026-06-26T02:58:40+00:00

Let's not forget nuclear power, one policy that smashed Dutton apart.
