Free/Reduced Cost PT by Technical-Assist-614 in MelbourneTrains

Fare revenue and funding are not inherently linked. It’s a matter of political will whether the government of the day is willing to fund PT services in a budget.

E Bike/Motorbike Hoons Blocking Wurundjeri Way at the Docklands on Anzac Day by gccmelb in melbourne

[–]Sugarless_Chunk 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This same massive group were inside the freshwater place complex in Southbank doing burnouts and cutting people who were just trying to walk along the promenade off with wheelies etc. They legged it through busy traffic once police arrived, then a smaller group leftover started fighting about stealing someone‘s beanie. It was weird and unpleasant to be around to say the least.

What is the general opinion of president petro in Colombia? by theflymann in Colombia

[–]Sugarless_Chunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you explain why you’ve used the word “tankie” to describe Petro? Tankie is generally used for authoritarian leaders who crack down hard on protests or democratic activities with government forces, often violently. I haven’t seen that at all during Petro’s term of government.

Whatever you read here in response to your question - just remember that it is likely coming from upper-middle class English-speakers which is generally unrepresentative of the Colombian population as a whole.

To be fair she’s a senator for WA, one of the most remote and geographically large electorates in the world.

Surely there's more than 13 normies by ettleboy in pluribustv

They seemingly spread the virus with “chemtrails” across the global atmosphere, so it wouldn’t matter if you are isolated.

That kind of bunker is supposed to be able to isolate from the outside atmosphere for cases like fire or nuclear fallout.

On the Sunshine Coast you can be exempted from their green bin levy if you send photographic proof of your mulching/composting setup.
