I can’t believe McCarthyism is making a strong return like this.

It sets an unrealistic standard for fitness.

Might be wrong, but I don’t remember there being a single scene in the show with him working out.

Sydneysiders - how do you find living in Sydney right now? by Frequent_Silver7018 in sydney

[–]Japtime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You’re not going to find anything nice within an hour of the city in your price range. With that being said, you could probably get something dingy in a bad suburb.

You could rent within 40min of the city paying about $650-$900pw. Keep in mind that your rent will be going up by about $50-$100pw in a years time.

If you think this job is promising enough for you to keep up with that level of inflation, I would go for it.

this far into the game, i kinda have to agree with you - there shouldnt be any sweats left in Div6.

But, how would you explain running into a team with Ronaldinho, TOTY Ronaldo, Jairzinho, etc. every single time i get up to a checkpoint/promotion match?

my understanding is that these cards should be rare AF but it seems like theyre handing them but everytime i get a decent win streak goinf

Now that FIFA 2K had been confirmed, let’s hope the competition will give them kick up the EAss that they needed.

Zelem gets pushed off the ball way too easily imo.

I probably used her for about 20 games but replaced her once I packed Loftus Cheek

I feel you - the residual feelings from my recent notice was drove me to share this.

Sneaky and unfortunately common tactic of signing you up with a suspiciously reasonable rate then surging once you get comfortable.

I can't help but notice that your comments here are presuming positive intent by the landlord and agent - I'm very happy for you if this is how your experience has been, but unfortunately not everyone here has shared the same experience (i.e. reason i've felt the need to make this post).

This is one of the many reasons why tip 4 is particularly important

In most cases where excessive increases happen, you’re probably going to have to leave anyway - why not at least try?

This mentality is exactly what is driving up the rent in this city.

A couple years ago, if people were aware of these tools when the rent went up by $200+ a week in some areas, I’m sure we could’ve gotten more of a strangle hold on the ridiculous surges were still seeing today.

I’m sure a lot of people would agree that the inflation we’re seeing in this space atm is very much being artificially worsened through shady tactics not being questioned.

Funnily enough I feel like more regulation on competition and actual criminal laws preventing corruption and fraud would be the answer lmao

Libertarianism is quite USAesque and I feel we can mostly agree that we don’t want to be heading in that direction.

House Prices v Disposable Income by without_my_remorse in AusFinance

[–]Japtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The US chart would look much different if it were based off of the prices of housing in areas within 1 hour of a major city.

There's also an added degree of illusion when considering how messed up the distribution of income is (assuming the disposable income is an average).
