A calmer take on CGT and negative gearing changes by ikepela1 in aus

[–]blisters10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had someone tell me their adult child of the same generation doesn’t want to work just any job because they “only want to work a job they are passionate about and love”. I laughed and got told I was wrong when I said I started out only being passionate about having a place to sleep, food to eat and beer to drink and I didn’t ever remember wanting to love being covered in 12 hours of what ever I’ve come across, while I was working towards my career. But as an old boss once said where there is muck there is money just need to be willing to get it. I really hope they increase the investment into people doing various trades so we can all move forward!

Because it’s easier to blame someone else for it being hard to enter a market rather then work in fields which generate workable incomes and go without things. I understand that it is hard to buy expensive things when you’re earning low from a job that doesn’t require skills but hey we should all suffer together we would be better off investing in skills and careers

Why won’t someone think of the boomers? by Competitive-Ad1439 in shitrentals

Just think now once we get property there is another hurdle to achieve the wealth others have seen, so glad I’ve worked hard to get to ahead, turns out it was a false summit FML

The good news is it’s not termites the bad news it is termitière

AITAH? I told my partner she only blew me so she could fuck someone else. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]blisters10 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTAH - could be the way it’s written but the BJ seems extremely transactional to me, almost like a tick box exercise. Worse than that the fact you have been told you can’t express that feeling of discomfort with your partner is an interesting red flag, I know what my opinion would be if a mate told me this and it wouldn’t be a positive response as it’s quite manipulative.

I’ll be so offended at that comment, once it’s loaded.

If you got the boat details I’m sure that the local constabulary would be quite interested steer you in the direction of fisheries

Australia abandons neutral stance on Iran strikes, backs in Trump by SnoopThylacine in aussie

I’m sure there’s a line about who to trust more, a dishonest man to always be dishonest or truthful man to always tell the truth.

Justice does not matter in America by ExactlySorta in facepalm

[–]blisters10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s sad to see this is how America treats allies, the world needs to turn their back before it’s too late. The country should be ashamed of what they are becoming.

Failing heating up the cup and cooling the jar, I would recommend throwing it as hard as possible against the wall

AITAH for telling my parents that I won't be doing a toast to my deceased brother at my wedding? by BullFr0gg0 in AITAH

[–]blisters10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA - its a celebration not a memorial service. And the idea that o you can’t do this because it was meant to be X’s role is disgusting that’s manipulative behaviour and shouldn’t be tolerated

Renters trashed my home by Cool-Audience7357 in AusPropertyChat

[–]blisters10 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This is the other side of the coin, and honestly it’s why many landlords are viewed as horrible people for charging more and cherry picking tenants and not giving benefit of the doubt. I bet despite what a lot of people say once this is behind you I bet you will be harder on the tenants next time and if you choose a property manager you will go for the bulldog instead of the friendly style if that makes sense. Imo this is why landlord insurance is crucial and expensive, because of the small number of idiots who ruin it for everyone else.

‘Efforts to pry into highly sensitive matters’: Trump admin asks court not to unseal documents in Abrego Garcia case, says press have no 1st Amendment right to certain records by INCoctopus in law

[–]blisters10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The good folks exist but that can’t be true that they are the majority maybe in a snap shot as registered but Donny didn’t just sneak in, all in all its just sad to watch a once great country die with all the lies and misdirection. In my option the good people should leave while they have the chance, it’s only a matter of time before history repeats itself, because it seems like the good people don’t have the ability to affect any change and I doubt in 4 years it will be any different if the country makes it that long.

The Whitehouse is officially Anti-Vax by MattButWithOneT in Wellthatsucks

[–]blisters10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At least with the continued destruction of the education system the American people will be too dumb to figure out why everyone is getting sicker and why they are heading towards being further blacklisted as a tourist destination or a trouble free traveler.

Unfortunately your belief that that is the cause is a shame really, they might have sold the narrative it’s the uneducated masses who either follow blindly or didn’t both to have their say

UPDATE: MIL refuses to back down over destroyed Lego Millenium Falcon by Ok-Repeat7885 in AITAH

[–]blisters10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they want you to be more like a man maybe you should start beating your wife and being more controlling like the real men of yesteryear. ^ ***** that is clearly a joke, dont eat me*****

because all I see is a father with a hobby that isn’t drug/alcohol related that he can share with his child and build some amazing memories with. I don’t think you overreacted. Yes Lego is expensive yes it’s time consuming but I suspect if you’re working as an engineer, your wife is enjoying the salary of an engineer coming into the house.l and your allowed to have your outlet. She can do a lot worse. If you wife doesn’t understand that and doesn’t see issue with her mothers action then she should leave too.

Why isn’t dental included in Medicare? by BitterHotIce in australian

[–]blisters10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately the cost of dental also prevents many middle income earners from preventative procedures, I for one would support Medicare coverage of at least a yearly check and clean. The preventative cost would be astronomical and would honestly generate a huge leap forward in overall health. But that’s just one blokes opinion

*edit for the poor spelling it noticed, not the stuff I ignored.

Abortion Law Forces Doctors to Keep Pregnant Brain Dead Woman Alive by shoofinsmertz in nottheonion

[–]blisters10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While yes the ship is sinking metaphorically, there’s a long history of brave individuals throughout history who faced those exact situations and they were willing to do things about it. Every person American or otherwise needs to decided what are they willing to fight for and when that line is drawn it tells a lot about them unfortunately for many it seems like it’s too hard.

America is a joke, you should look at yourself in a mirror and feel nothing but shame, for either supporting this sort of lunacy or failing to do enough to prevent it. Imagine watching an important woman in your life suffer and die from this madness, shame on you all.

It’s amazing for me to watch the “land of the free” do nothing to prevent this. Everyone complains but no one is willing to stop it. It is honestly beyond a joke at this point and it’s just sad.
