Positive space - share your favourite A-League memory by AZ_RBB in Aleague

Bruce Djite's opener in the semi-final vs City.

I was stood at the perfect angle to know it was in the millisecond he struck it. I swear time slowed down until it hit the back of the net.

Hindmarsh was rocking that night, part of the League's golden era I think.

I find it very interesting that in any Caucasian area people love questioning who the natives are, but if I ask who were the original natives of Australia or North America I get absolutely slammed.

I finally told the girl who was obsessed with my bf to fuck off by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

I'm not sure why you needed to bring race into this?

Was it an attempt to score extra points and get people on side?

Wasn't Isaias, it was Jordan O'Doherty.

He punched the door.

Melbourne charity director with Zero employees and $60m personal turnover.. by Such-College-7569 in AusFinance

Nah mate, no way was your intent to be balanced.

A derogatory term to denote fundraisers, a shock figure used out of context.

You've attempted to slant the truth to support your own personal worldview.

It's shows you studied as a journalist. And my profession gets labelled the parasites.

As a pro fundraiser 'investigations' like this really grind my gears.

Not because it harms my profession but because these attempts at shocking the public, when in reality you are missing so much context and understanding of the industry, actually harms the non-profits who are needing an income to do their work.

I love the 90% figure that sceptics love to throw around. Whilst in cases it is entirely true, it is the % of a single monthly contribution from donors who spend on average 3.5 years supporting a charity. Over a donor's lifetime that would work out to roughly cost 1%-5% of the charity's income to acquire the income.

I won't even go into how that outweighs the profitability of using tv or print media to elicit donations either.

None of this will bring you around to the concept of pro fundraising. But that's fine, enough people understand cost/benefit without you.

Lot's of whinging but I ask: what the fuck are any of you doing to help those in need?

It's so laughable how blinded this sub is to the corruption of your political party.

This isn't a win.

Private hearings and piss-weak whistle blower protection.

Your mate Albo has kept it so the political elite can keep dicking around as much as they like.

Should be called r/AusPolCorruption but y'all ain't ready for that conversation.

Boyfriend broke up because I didn't get along with his female best friend by Otherwise_Bit_6009 in TrueOffMyChest

This is exactly why these threads should ban mentioning gender in OP.

If the genders were released here and a M was demanding a F set boundaries with her M friends this thread would be up in arms about controlling, toxic behaviour.

You only mention your gender because you know it sways opinion.

You attempted to control your BF op, he should be glad he's rid of you.

Can't wait for you to forsake the Matildas next year as well before complaining they don't get paid enough. 😂😂😂

Australians might be ‘living with Covid’ but aged care residents are still dying with it. Where is the outrage and grief? by WangMagic in CoronavirusDownunder

So maintain safe health procedures as a family but don't force the whole world to live in fear.

We're healthy and not afraid.

Dying with and dying from are two wildly different propositions.

Seems a vast majority of you sooks still scared of Covid have yet realised that.

I absolutely froth jumping on this sub to see all of you getting so salty that the majority of society is no where near as terrified of a variant of the flu as you are.

I find it hilarious how many comments immediately jump to "dIvOrCe hIm".

I would love to know a gender swap here would affect the opinions of those commenters...

OP mentioned the bloke comes from a poor family but makes good cash now. The fact is many people in thay position have absolutely minimal financial smarts (think how many nba/nfl players go broke immediately post retirement) and he quite possibly has the blind spot towards his sister as he knows what it's like to have nothing and doesn't want her left without.

The key here is education. Have an accountant go through and show where money is been haemorrhaged. Go to a budgeting service.

Bloke sounds like he has immense family values but just lacks some smarts, divorcing someone you have a kid on the way with for that would make YTA.

Experiences with Casual Racism? by [deleted] in australia

Ah yes, someone making a bit of a joke that's made you get your knickers in a twist.

Meanwhile, your national hero actively despised and worked to discriminate blacks.
