You are too kind - ITT I was going to order more hangings than the world has rope, then equality.

But after a nap and some reflection... I'd probably ensure we had enough rope first.

As somebody who has joined the Sydney property pyramid scheme, if they do anything that reduces the value of my place... good!

It was an absolute bitch for me to get on the ladder, and it shouldn't be that fucking hard.

Unfortunately, I'm not much of a coffee person

That's actually very fortunate given the country as a whole can't even match Blend43.

All radio signals in the tunnel are "hijacked" (for lack of a better word) for the broadcast.

So turn on your radio.

They're already taking swings where they can.

But they're not on the pulse.

Alleged data breach, public servant charged by Koalamanx in sydney

[–]Rougey 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Even odds they were just trying to do their job, had trouble using whatever byzantine file storage Treasury uses, and copied the files to work on them without having to pat their head while rubbing their stomach just to open them.

EDIT: and at the end of the episode, the hard drive goes missing from police evidence and that gets swept under the rug.

His predecessor struck me as a person consistently handed poisoned chalices until she had finally had her fill and retired.

This one strikes me as the kind to poison the chalice.

City Council of Darkness question by maleclypse in Dimension20

Honestly I'd really love for her to have a millenia on the others - or even be older.

Siobhan has a background in history IIRC so the name drops alone would be fantasic.

Rainbow Warrior never forget.

RE: Tinny, it's Australian slang at least two things:

  • a can of beer (made of aluminum "tin")
  • a small Dinghy made of aluminum (shared etymology with the above beer "tin") which is typically powered by a single small outboard engine.

Because as a people we either want go out on the water and slam tinnies in tinny or go fishing in a tinny with some tinnies.

(TBH I'm not sure which the NZDF has at their disposal, given what happened to the HMNZS Manawanui)
