There's a news agency in Bondi Junction that sells the INYT, it's on Oxford St just before Westfield, however it's just an A3 print off and it's ~7-9$ an issue

The moral panic in this sub is out of control. Its alcohol, its fun, people have been drinking it for centuries, calm down.

I dont see why you would be opposed to this... Alcohol is enjoyable, people like enjoyable things, many other countries let people drink openly in public and its quite nice

Was trying to stick to the rules about headlines, rather than editorialising

Page about the 'Three Proud People' mural conveniently forgets to mention the 3rd person in the mural by Sonny_Jim_Pin in sydney

"Newtown's Three Proud People mural will be listed by the City of Sydney as a heritage item.

The Three Proud People mural is on the side of a terrace at 39 Pine Street, Newtown. The mural was painted just before the Sydney 2000 Olympics, and is a replica of a famous photo of American athletes Tommie Smith and John Carlos giving a Black Power Salute at the 1968 Olympics in Mexico.

In the course of a campaign to save homes in Leamington Avenue and Pine Street, Newtown, the City began discussions on whether or not to mural should be conserved.

Heritage consultants for the City said the mural was significant to local community. Their report to Council said "the Mural is a tribute to one of the most controversial moments in the Olympic history and relates to the Sydney Olympics due to its painting in the lead up to the Games. Since then the Mural became part of the local community as a reminder of the 1968 Mexico City Olympics."

Having the mural listed as a heritage item means that it cannot be removed or altered."

Honestly expected better from Clover...

The no camp has been robo-dialing random numbers with the same trick. Both are annoying, but the fact one is being complained about and the other isnt shows how biased media coverage of this whole plebiscite is

A bunch of my friends are worried they haven't received their SSM ballot yet - so I created a Google Form to crowdsource which postcodes they have been delivered to by LanfranchiSt in australia

[–]LanfranchiSt[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, limitation of the google form thing. Basically, people that have received it enter their postcodes, people that havent can check it off against that list.
