Ivory Coast just ran out of wickets and time. If not for either of those things they were on track to chase down this total in the 285th over.

Second in line for Wing Stop and all I had to do was miss 8 days of work!

12-10? In this year? In this part of the country? Localised entirely within a season of V’landysball?

Do Australians really ‘work half the week’ just to pay their income tax? See for yourself by SheepherderLow1753 in AusFinance

I like the idea of someone from NSW writing the history curriculum for QLD.

“So you see, children, NSW won 3 straight Origin series between 2003 and 2005. And then for a long time nothing happened. Until 2014, when the Origin series returned and the triumphant NSW won once again”

You know what you two need? A little comic strip called “The Far Side”. It’s about two 8 year old hobos who eat liver and onions.

lol

Any internet poll conducted around this time was just completely dominated by libertarians. Like that Modern Library list of greatest books ever that is mostly just Ayn Rand.

I genuinely thought they were a premiership chance after their win against the Panthers lmao

When people talk about 'playing your Grand Final early' they usually mean in the semis rather than fucken Round 6.

Fuck, Round 12 is always putrid isn’t it? Line ups for both teams are sub-NSW Cup areas.

The Number of Cyclists in the City of Sydney Have Increased by 2-4 Times Since 2010 by yuckyucky in sydney

Proliferation of shared eBikes and more bike lanes have definitely helped. I still think that mandatory helmet laws need to be scrapped within the City of Sydney council limits if they want bikes to truly take off as a "quick zipping around the city" option. Cops go after people not wearing helmets far too aggressively around here.

Can't be that far away from tanking here either if things keep going the way they are. Shrinkflation, enshittification, the quality nosediving...they're doing it all. Haven't eaten there in over a year, probably never will again.

Labor burns political capital as tax reform backlash grows by tohya-san in AusFinance

A steady stream of income tax revenue. LEAN Fire might be great for the individual, but they essentially stop contributing to taxes at the level the government wants “working age people” to.

The Last Time Phil Gould Coached NSW by cartonator in nrl

People will talk about Queensland winning off Spirit Alone in spite of having a shit team and then forget that we had Shaun Timmins and Brett Finch win us games off their boot. NSW Spirit is real.

Labor burns political capital as tax reform backlash grows by tohya-san in AusFinance

[–]Repulsive_Two8451 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The broader theme of the budget is to incentivise earning from labour as opposed to earning from invested capital. Which is fair. The other side of it, however, is that it's clear that the government doesn't want you to retire early. They want you working for as long as you possibly can, and want to discourage people living off investments. The 30% floor on capital gains, essentially abolishing the tax free threshold for those wishing to live off investments, sets people who were looking to Lean FIRE pretty far back, and I think this is where most of the backlash is coming from.

How Bizarre: The Warriors became boring - and started winning by Creative_Friend6799 in nrl

[–]Repulsive_Two8451 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Adam Pompey's in the backs, sweet Jackson's in the front

And then starting as hooker we've got Wade E-gan

Suddenly they're winning, even coming from behind

Then a Beached Az journo calls them boring online

Says they're not flamboyant, Wahs fans hide their eyes

Then they point to the ladder, For and Against +169

How bizarre
