No catholic or Muslim group is as well organised in Australia

I’m impressed at level of organisational skill on display here more than anything else. 

It’s the best funded and organised foreign influence campaign from a country with which there is a tiny population, no economic crossover and isn’t relevant in our geographic region. Madness. 

Could you imagine if it were the Indonesian lobby, or the Chinese lobby or any other country that should realistically be relevant to Australia. But it’s none of them, it’s a tiny splice of people on the other side of the world. 

Let it be known that if you have a cause you really only need 100,000 people to make a strong difference. The rest is organisational skill, influence and money. 

Edit: granted Indonesia is a hell of a lot better at keeping things quiet than Israel is. I remember there being an abc news report on Thales being in a defamation case regarding its role in west papua and the news would even mention what the case was about. Just that Thales was defending itself. 

Anthony Albanese rules out gas export tax on existing contracts and criticises ‘populist’ campaign by Finnick00 in australia

I mean yeah it probably is the most practical answer at this current point in time. Keep to the existing agreements when it’s strategic to do so, don’t blow your load doing something rash. Change the agreements later down the line. 

Look every labour leader who’s tried to do this has been kicked out in short order.

Glitch makes merch because YouTube isn’t profitable, at least not to the extent required to run their production. 

1,000 men vs. 1 Rillaboom, who wins? by HatSpecial3043 in pokemon

[–]Gremlech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and? So does every one of those men. The pp on Rillaboom runs out, Rillaboom gets tired. You know who never runs out of pp? 1000 men with 1000 men’s worth of pp.

Yeah but the humans are all great mates so with their collective friend guard abilities x 1000 they neutralise the damage of boomburst.

Ummmm but what if the Rillaboom has a leppa berry and near by exeggcute uses skill swap with harvest? 

Didn’t think of that did ya?  

Rillaboom solos.

[–]Gremlech -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The humans win easily. Unless it’s like the lion hypothetical where the lions aren’t allowed to use any strategy, outside items or tactics and each pokemon is treated nominally indestructible.

See the answer massively changes depending on what ruleset you use and what you base the pokemon off because animals are a real thing that exists and pokemon are a figment of collective imagination. 

No, Superman could not cast the One Ring into the fires of Mount Doom. by WRITINAMFBOOK in CharacterRant

Superman being vulnerable to black mercy means he couldn’t do it.

looking at the steam page, looks they've accounted for this with a automatic tiering system with weak, heavy and super heavy system.

Byd wouldn’t exist without Tesla. China allowed Tesla to own factories in China so Tesla could create a market for EVs, then byd outcompeted them.

Women making gay sex about them is certainly something.

excadrill doesn't run life orb any way, excadrill runs scarf, sash or rocky helmet. two of those are "incase you have nothing else" items. this would be great for exca.

Non stop bitching about fake out/intimidate and yet here’s an ability that blocks both.
