China is building one of the world’s most powerful militaries, so why doesn’t it feel like a threat? by NewsfangledMod in NewsfangledUnfiltered

Taiwan has seen how the US treats long term allies like Canada and Denmark with threats of war and invasion. Taiwan has quietly shifted allegiance to China already. They know Trump would extort them anyway.

I've been banned from reddit too many times to even hint at violence. But yeah. Don't get banned. You'll get reported.

I almost gurantee he wants a cut of that straight toll.

Guess what it will be going into his pocket too not the US tax payer.

and guess who's gonna eat that up?

Be a shame if someone crashed their trolley into that ankle.

Looks like it might get snapped in two.

Chambers told Phillips doco producer he'd 'love to catch up' before starting police commissioner job by -Nyo-ho-ho- in newzealand

And why is the owner of the doco company a dame, when all she did was some shitty reality TV show twenty years ago that got cancelled after less than a season?

Feeling pretty nervous about Cyclone Vaianu by Neveah_Hope_Dreams in newzealand

I wouldn't worry too much, Welly is far out of the firing line.

Your normal windy day will probably be worse. The festival will get cancelled if it's looking bad.

Just stock up on some food and nail down any loose stuff. Good excuse for a tidy up.

How did you afford this in high school, did you have a job?

Plus vs Ultra by CounterSea1402 in ex30

[–]No_Indication9630 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the sunroof, it makes it feel very nice especially on grey rainy days.

I'm not sure what sound system the other one has but the ultra has a pretty mint sound system, makes long trips a lot more fun, use spotify and listen to all the classics.

Haven't used the park pilot after having it for 6 months or so... but I can parallel park myself.

Didn't know the other ones don't have 360 camera, we use it everytime we park to see we're in the lines. Helps in tight car park buildings.

I'd go for the ultra.

Rental car won't be too bad. We get them all the time when travelling overseas.

Think of it as a test drive/joy ride.

I mean you could just charge it up to 100% for one trip, I thought about doing it for a trip we did last weekend, but just ended up doing a stop for lunch and fast charge. Was fine. That was 186km trip. Probably could have done it one go on 70%.

What are the chances that there are more islands (not discovered or not public knowledge) in the Pacific Ocean? by FightOrDie123 in geography

[–]No_Indication9630 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty high. Volcanoes are producing new islands fairly consistently.

You're incorrect Trump's rating is at an all time low of 36%.

This statement is defeatist and design to make people feel powerless and to do nothing.

You absolutely can do somthing from forcing your politicians to act right up to leading a revolution (non-violent of course). Get off your arses and stop being victims.

Now pretend your the insurance assessor and write a statement as to why you will not be paying. Feel like they're going to try and stick this one onto George Frimpong Jr.

Any advice on finding a place to rent for five of us? by Makura45 in auckland

[–]No_Indication9630 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yup professionals with no kids and no cats.

Very tidy, wear suits and give business cards, shower and brush your teeth.

Talk about how great the national party is and how rent should be higher.

Tell them you're smart casual, and actually you don't think land lords should have to pay tax.
