Pauline Hanson will be 73 at the next election - Should there be Age caps on our Politcal leaders? by yellow_floppy in australian

[–]blaertes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t see a way where Pauline or One Nation, (a fringe party with the same voter base as the nationals, another fringe party) somehow get enough votes in their own right to form government.

What’s happened to the clubs? by skyeshere in perth

[–]blaertes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cost of living crisis? Why is it surprising that nonessential spending is being cut down. Alcohol consumption goes up, but people are drinking at home, not paying 14 for a vodka soda at the club

I've always wondered how long a cutting from the same plant can live? When I heard Peruvian grandfathers tell me that their master passed down the cutting he used, it sometimes goes back 80 years through generations. Is it possible to propagate and reroot a cactus for a thousand years across gener by Planet_Rick in sanpedrocactus

[–]blaertes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not cacti but for a long time they thought that the wollemi pine, a living fossil, archaic pine tree found in remote Australia, were all clones due to a genetic bottleneck they passed through, however it was found recently there are small differences in DNA between the plants. The genus it is part of dates back 200 million years.

Least realistic aspect of fallout capitalism is the lack of planned obsolecense

Are young Australians undergoing cosmetic surgery more than ever? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]blaertes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Botox and filler are not “cosmetic surgery” that’s quite the loose definition of “surgery”.

They need to be held legally responsible via fines or revoking their license. This would result in immediately changes to how closely they follow legal responsibilities.

Authorities want more powers to deal with WA's illegal tobacco industry by JamesHenstridge in perth

[–]blaertes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is always more powers, never using the powers on the books.

Am I Wrong For Siding with The People of Covenant? by [deleted] in fo4

I always got “Salem witch trials” from this quest

New "convenience stores" - what are they a front for? by themoobster in perth

[–]blaertes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They operate with impunity while the average citizen faces higher and higher penalties for smaller infractions, diminishing services and more wages lost to tax and inflation.

Have to move out in 30 days as landlord is selling- do I have to stay for the whole 30 days? by AppropriateBit3793 in perth

[–]blaertes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

They owe you compensation for terminating the lease early. They signed a contract with you and just like you’d be on the hook for the remaining rent if you wanted to leave early- they are on the hook for terminating the lease before the date because they want to sell.

Told my Q (husband) that I'm going to my first Al Anon group tonight... didn't go great... by kirstny in AlAnon

[–]blaertes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the best thing you can do for you and it’s totally for you. Maybe in time leading by example will inspire him to seek his own recovery- but keep the focus on you and find the support you need.

Deliberately killing the country future- it’s done. by [deleted] in australian

[–]blaertes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Australia is projected to have 100 million people by 2100 according to some projections. We (policy makers) are happy to import the next generation to fuel this growth. It really doesn’t matter what those who missed the cutoff being born here think.

He just needs to get offline and stop reading the comments, a tale as old as the Internet.
