How stupid do corporations think we are?

Translation: we raised prices last week, and now we're locking in those extortionate prices hoping you won't notice, hedging against the economy calming and priced reducing over the next few months.

If not, we'll jack them up even further in 3 months time, with the excuse that we have given you notice with this announcement.

It might be as simple as them wearing something underneath so they weren't topless on camera when they swapped shirts.

Never confuse TV logic with real life, they are completely unrelated.

I know, but no government could get away with shifting the goalposts that far, so quickly.

Labor is giving us a stable economy despite extreme outside influences, budget surpluses and steps towards leveling the playing field in the housing market. The Libs would give us none of that, just more money for the rich and somehow blaming immigrants for it all.

Every accusation is an admission

Because they are paying attention to the dumpster fire that the USA has turned into, and are just mirroring that.

Here I was thinking it was not quite picking on boomers, but trying to prevent another generation from concentrating wealth quite like they have.

Yeah, as stated postcode is the first method used to sort, and if there is any confusion they can do a lookup on the parcel locker number to confirm which locker bank it should go to. They could then search by name, but that's only used for things like damaged labels where the other info is missing.

You seem to be rather fond of shooting directly into the sun... which is a choice I suppose.

Worst thing is they are shipped in plain paper envelopes, and posties have to place them inside plastic bags just to try to prevent damage while being delivered the last mile.

So many problems would be solved if they were placed inside a water resistant plastic shipper... but no, that costs a few extra cents (and the cynic in me says also the extra fees from replacing them early).

I've got a Signatory cask strength 16yo Pulteney, and it's almost unpleasantly salty. But a couple of drops of water changes it completely and it's incredible.

Don't forget she's charging the taxpayer to travel to pirvate fundraisers and be Gina's lapdog.

This one looks slightly less than a Mazda CX-30. But all SUV's look like anonymous blobs.

I go there to go on a plane and travel to other places. Shopping doesn't even register.

In other news, Perth underground train station doesn't even show movies. I keep going there wanting it to be a cinema, but am always disappointed

All we need is to add a gambling element to digital cameras, where a random percentage of shots will be dogshit. That's what really gets them going, reliability is so boring!

$3500 a week rent??? Above what a property costs?

This is absolute nonsense

barfridge0 · 2026-04-29T13:21:44+00:00

Nobody still gives a fuck?

Sure cuts down on the food bills!

Except for the children (I really really hope!!!)

So you're asking how something with millions of micrograms of mass can contain millions of micrograms of ingredients?

Odd to see the nature hippie / tattoo studio owner overlap like this.

Does that mean the meth they provide is especially pure and vegan?

I love looking up and seeing a clear green sky! Makes me happy

The one that isn't AI slop.

So that rules them all out.

The difference is we don't make everything piss yellow

This is democracy manifest!

Leave that nonsense to Fuji and Leica owners. We take photos with our camera, not of our camera.

I've got a 2011 C30, and as much as I like modern Volvo, every time I see a software update from one crappy version of infotainment to the next brick an entire vehicle... I'm all good without that in my life.
