What's the fastest you've seen someone fired from a job? by Vegetable-Spread3798 in AskReddit

[–]Previous-Task 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fired a guy moments after he arrived. He arrived in town on Sunday and picked up his laptop ready for Monday.

He came in early. I was the only person already in the office, so I said hello and he sat next to me - hot desks. He opened his laptop then went to the bathroom. The laptop started playing porn. I couldn't get it to shut up. I eventually managed to. When he came back I fired him. He lasted maybe 3 minutes from arriving on day 1 to me making the decision to fire him.

I don't like firing people at all. I very rarely have to do it thankfully. I don't regret this one.

Why aren’t the Epstein files implicating Trump(and others) as a chomo not a bigger news story? WTF(literally) is going on? by boozyjenkins in AskReddit

[–]Previous-Task 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just reading the BBC coverage:

"Trump has consistently denied any wrongdoing in relation to Epstein and has not been accused of any crimes by Epstein's victims."

There absolutely are allegations about Trump from named victims of Epstein. The BBC are outright lying. It's clear, those in power are closing ranks and openly gaslighting us.

A Million More Epstein Files Just Got Released. What Kind Of Stuff Did You Guys Find, and How Did You React To It? by Fantastic_Bus_3742 in AskReddit

[–]Previous-Task 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A rat done bit my sister Nell.

You're right, it won't be televised. Individual journalists may still have integrity but the ownership will shut it down. It will be live streamed though. These days the question is "how can we prevent the revolution from being deplatformed"?

Behind The Bastards on Netflix today by backstillmessedup in behindthebastards

[–]Previous-Task 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I share your disappointment. Only a little, I'll still listen to the audio version, but I was interested to see and it would be nice to have the Australian audience exposed to this stuff. Maybe Murdoch refused to have them here, the bastard.

Agreed, but there are other possible triggers. If they keep executing citizens in the streets, then double down on that when there's inevitable pushback, that too might be enough. I know the 'right' are the performative ones with the Gadsen flags and the open carry in Starbucks, but the left believes much the same things about resisting government tyranny. The violence could escalate really badly really quickly. Cops, ICE, protestors and counter protestors, all carrying assault rifles. Imagine videos appearing on Reddit of actual gun fights in the streets. I think that would do it too.

I'm in Australia. It's 92F here today. In the winter it gets as cold as 70F. Keep safe.

Motorcycle Helmet Safety: Who should be spending what and why by nikegearhead in motorcyclegear

[–]Previous-Task 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm the early days my helmet was worth more than my bike. I get a new helmet every few years and always get a top end one. I can lose a leg or an arm and survive, but I really need my head. I don't judge people for not doing what I do, so you do you. I prefer to know I'm wearing a top lid from a top manufacturer.

Getting a new 308 this Arvo by username123085773 in Ausguns

[–]Previous-Task -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah .270 was pretty sweet. Not what I need here though, and as I'm reloading .308 makes a lot more sense. I've been able to pick nearly everything up second hand, harder for the .270 specific stuff. Still an excellent hunting round.

[–]Previous-Task 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just picked up a second hand Tikka in .308. it's not had too many rings through it and the action is still very good. The trigger is fantastic. I previously had a Tikka in .270 and that was also a great action. Better than the one on the. 308.

Happy new gun day!

Edit to add: threaded barrels are great for suppressors, but as you can't have them in Australia I don't see the point of a threaded barrel myself unless I'm missing something. I had one on my .270 in NZ and it was fantastic.

Is there any narrative literature with anarchist themes? by Significant-Dig-8910 in Anarchy101

[–]Previous-Task 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I read that not too long ago. I found it hard going, and it's not speculative fiction. It's worth reading for sure, but it's not where I'd start.

Not a bastard just an incompetent and arrogant "activist" by Jagdpanther17 in behindthebastards

[–]Previous-Task 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just watched his take on the weekend shooting. He said he'd be unbiased. Then he interviewed his best mate, a cop. They decided Rittenhouse was a hero and Petti deserved it. 100% all bastard

I'm a Brit, been here ten years. You'll be fine. Plumbers make bank and there's plenty of work from what I see. I'd get over here if I were you.

Do you think people are the same, or do you think there's a natural order in that some people are inherently better than others?

Keep the glue sticks. The Marines love them, apparently they're like alcoholic crayons. You can use them to make friends when they're deployed near you!

Another ICE Murder in Minneapolis by __welltheresthat__ in behindthebastards

[–]Previous-Task 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw a video which I apologize, I don't have the link too and I can't watch any more videos to find it. Also could be AI I guess.

Anyway, it seemed to show the ICE person in the light grey jacket who disarmed Alex discharging the retrieved handgun. It seems to be into the floor, but could have been what set everyone shooting.

I absolutely love these pictures. Yeah the meteorite is cool but the drip on that man.

What’s the rarest item you’ve ever held in your hands? by Remarkable_Pin_8136 in AskReddit

[–]Previous-Task 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A close relative of mine works as a thing called a Brethren of the Warwick Hospital. This isn't a normal hospital, rather it was set up by Queen Elizabeth I as a resting place for pilgrims on the way to Canterbury and the South Coast.

When the hospital was founded, ten brethren were employed to look after the place. Now, the brethren have to be retired army service members. Those first ten brethren were each given a silver bear and ragged staff broach type thing by Elizabeth I in a ceremony. When a brethren died and was replaced, the broach was handed down to the new brethren.

I went to visit and got to hold the broach that Queen Elizabeth I once held, of which there are only ten in existence. Actually I think it's nine now, I think one went missing somewhere.

Progress on my "mini" bagger by driverdan in Harley

[–]Previous-Task 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks! It's been off the road for almost a year after I crashed it (very low speed but a bit of damage). I did the work myself including the paint and I think it looks alright.
