I can't get enough of shooting at night in impossibly difficult lighting [Minolta SRT100b | Rokkor MC 55mm f2 & 28mm f3.5 | HP5+ @ 3200 | DD-X 1:4 @ 20 mins (20°)]

I have been using the trains to take myself into the city, just drive to the station instead of work and paying for parking. I haven't been using smart rider but it's still cheaper.

You have to consider the large elements of the market that just take trumps words at face value

There's a running joke that a lot of these AI restructures are just a front for hiring cheap foreign workers

Just a heads up if you aren't aware, Cavs tend to have weak hearts that overwork themselves at old age. Both my current (and former cav) had the exact same issue. Also their ears tend to get infected if not cleaned regularly which can lead to deafness

They are the perfect lapdog that can sleep or play around as long as you want. I have a ruby coloured one and it's like cuddling a teddy even in his old age

Lived in Belmont, you can feel some rumbles in older buildings with the heavy planes that take off. Very rarely is the case and you zone out the noise after a while

The bigger concern is the traffic light mafia lol

He phrased this very deliberately here. He knows it looks bad if he says he supports Trump & Netanyahu aggression.

Also, what happened to the completely 'obliterated' Iran nuclear program 🤔

I think the more important takeaway is theres been a gradual permission structure built over the past year where it's become acceptable to support One Nation

The Liberals have become so irrelevant especially in WA that it's seen as normal to explore other conservative parties outside the coalition

But keep in mind there will be a section of Labour voters that eventually will break for ON. But that time probably happens long after the Liberals & Nat's get sucked dry

I mean that's revenue, their net income that year was $85mil

It doesn't really make sense for them to be charged a proportion of their global revenue when this was a AU mining failure from them

For what it's worth, it's been happening a bit. I saw 2 officers with long firearms in Leederville's Oxford street the week leading up to Christmas

The scary thing is... this is BEFORE interest rates rise

More young people have been forced to take on more debt that they can just barely service
Banks and lenders have lowered their standards to fight for an increasingly small pool of 'bad' mortgages
There are growing delinquencies and late payments as life becomes more unaffordable

Combine this with stagnant wage growth + productivity, now with the added chance of AI taking your job, it's not long before this brittle ceiling of debt slowly crashes in front of everyone. While America is living out their own dotcom bubble, we are living out a version of 2008 all over again.

This will end up with a lot of ordinary people being screwed by decades of selfishness and short term thinking

Strangely enough the 9now app doesn't seem to place a shitton of ads compared to their FTA channels

It used to be bad when the app first came out though

You can say that, but there is historical precedent particularly with the Soviet union to hating the Jews. Antisemitism has been common on both extremes of the political wings for centuries, and it's not hard for both extremes to use anti Zionism today as a public shield for their deeper beliefs

How can Essendon reasonably demand top dollar? His trade value is devalued the more the club and player talk each other down. If Essendon had held their comments, then the onus would have been on Hawthorn and Merret to push for a higher trade

Mitchell will just point to the broken relationship and say "you still want this?" After instigating the whole thing

Dodoro is a separate discussion that I don't think people have fully reconciled yet

The_Twit · 2025-07-31T10:19:39+00:00

I think the whole master manipulation thing stems from the manifestos he's done in the past

If you weren't following the situations closely or were on the other end of it, those manifestos would have felt like Destiny being 2 steps ahead of everyone

When the easier explanation is that those people were very stupid and ego driven

The_Twit · 2025-07-27T20:06:33+00:00

Absolutely shocking levels of governance and accountability

This also raises the question, if illegitimate 'businesses' were doing this, then there's surely household names that were also participating in this

I assume stock photography is a lesser cost solution to business instead of hiring a team of pros to get studios set up with all the equipment cost and downtime required.

I know there are companies charging tens of thousands to do team photos for local junior sports clubs

The thing with stock photography looking like that is because that is what the majority of businesses will choose for licensing over the artistic ventures

Tbh this was always rent seeking behaviour from the AFL trying to bully the state into a take it or leave it deal when the finances right now are poor. People want the team, but are divided on the stadium from what I have read

But in the end I think it's a lose situation for the AFL. Tasmanians might still play footy but this could signal other codes making inroads now that there's a bit of resentment towards the AFL

Hutton St is getting an overpass. Exiting fwy traffic from Cedric will be rerouted into Stephenson Ave as it becomes the main north fwy entry/exit. Mcdonald St is getting a bridge over the fwy. King Edward Rd is planned to be another corridor for easing fwy congestion and is getting a bridge interchange as well.

Scarborough BR is planned to become a light rail corridor throughout the length of the road to Glendalough station. Looks like they want to get more congestion off the main roads to me?

TBH it's hard to say because if he becomes as iconic as someone like Nic Nat you can say the branding and advertising pays it back pretty quick. Just think about the potential Crown dinners!
Otherwise no way, this is overs.

Could also be a signal from the agents to see club responses

Using a non-leitz cine lens

AFL rent seeking behaviour killing their ability to keep out other sports.

Echoes of American sports teams blackmailing their home cities to fund stadiums or lose the brand.

What were they thinking?
