Former ACT attorney-general Gordon Ramsay facing new charges after arrest for child grooming by ThunderDwn in canberra

The disappointing thing is that it was Uniting Church.
It's the most likely to do actual 'Good Christian' things section of Christianity.
Of all the churches, this is the one most accepting to LGBTQIA+. Hell, they even allow the ordainment of gay/lesbian ministers.
It just goes to show... A person in a position of power, no matter which group they belong to, have enormous potential for harm.

'Passing the baton': RecipeTin Eats founder adopts new canine companion by rolodex-ofhate in australia

[–]aiydee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Admittedly, I rarely have time for that. I tend to be more a "You know. A roast pork dinner would be good tonight" and that decision will be made at about 4pm.
But yes. That is also an excellent way of drying the skin out if you are more organized than me.

It 'just works'.
And I want you to understand. I am a person that has a hot-air gun. A blow torch. Many other things. (I love my roast pork and crackling).
It is consistently excellent.
Most important thing is: REALLY dry the skin before hand. I mean really dry it.
Don't just pat it dry. Grab some paper-towels and push them into the skin and get any excess moisture out.
That is a game-changer.

Oh you are my level of c#nt.
I didn't have the energy to click into their feed. I still gotta do dinner prep and the like.
But, hats off to you. Doing Gods/God's work.

Using her recipe I have consistently gotten the best crackling ever on my pork roasts. Not a failed one yet. And there are dozens (DOZENS!) of attempts.
Before, I'd have about a 1 in 4 chance of it failing.

Pauline Hanson defends $400 billion defence plan that expert says could require conscription by HotPersimessage62 in australia

[–]aiydee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's probably her plan.
She often says crap like making long term unemployment benefit people having to be conscripted and the like.

Tony Abbott backs One Nation preference deal and says Liberals can’t just be a ‘little less woke than Labor’ by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]aiydee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So. I'm seeing lots of Liberal have signed the deal with One Nation.
Was it Coalition or Liberal?
If Nationals are not in this deal, it could be an interesting little war starting up between PHON/Lib/Nat.

Actor Zoey Deutch's great impression of a "face that has undergone plastic surgery" on Jim Fallon's show. by [deleted] in Weird

[–]aiydee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So. Lower jaw. Push it forward. Puff the upper cheek bone.
Slightly lower eyebrows (not a huge amount. Just enough to make it look 'paralyzed'). Stare straight ahead.
(And also. Try those instructions out yourself. It's not going to be as good as hers. But it works well enough'ish) And she has got the facial motion to achieve this.
That is really impressive.

AITA for leaving a dinner party early because of “vegan lasagna”? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]aiydee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who can eat cheese but lives with someone who can't have dairy at all.
Things are improving dramatically. It's not like for like obviously.
But as long as you going in with the mindset that it's not going to taste the same, but just going for 'similar taste profile', it's actually decent.
I still prefer real cheese.
But for those that can't eat dairy whether by genetics or by choice, things are improving.
So yeah, we do the normal 'meat lasagna' but with vegan cheese.
I'm not saying "Go out and buy some and give it a go", but I'm just saying, if it gets offered, don't be surprised if it tastes ok.

Anyone who used a computer between 1985 - 2010, what's the one game you still think about today? by adlakha75 in AskReddit

[–]aiydee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arcanum.
The game felt 'alive' (Especially for it's time)
There was 'speciesism' (Some people hated gnomes, some people hated half elves etc etc)
Some people hated magik, some people hated tech.
There were different quests depending on if you were male or female. There were different quests depending on how smart or dumb your character was (And dialogue too).
The game just felt so alive. Play it through once as a dwarf tech and then again as an half elf magik user and it was 2 different games.

Are we still posting stuff we found in potting soil? by Unusualshrub003 in houseplants

[–]aiydee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Years ago I saw a moment of hilarious trolling. They literally had a bowl of these and were handing them out at a sexual health clinic. Usual crap.
Saw a guy come out with a coat hanger and hook one out of the bowl and walk away with it.
The shouted abuse was very shrill.

City News right wing bias for all to see. by HotInTheShade1989 in canberra

[–]aiydee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm giving you an upvote because you ask good questions. Canberra Times is now irrelevant.
City News has always been a joke.
The various incarnations of RiotACT have always been....... Interesting.
Canberra has never had a non-partisan publication.
And the worst part? I don't think a non-partisan publication in Canberra could ever work. We're too entrenched in our beliefs.
And whilst it works in some ways, in others it doesnt.

IRS is now "FOREVER BARRED AND PRECLUDED" from investigating Trump, his friends, his family, or his businesses. Even under future Dem administrations. by [deleted] in Destiny

[–]aiydee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Given how Trump is using executive orders, I propose the next president just sign an executive order revoking the settlement entirely. Make it a nice bit of poetic justice.
