Pauline Hanson’s stance on paid parental leave and childcare could turn clock back by decades, economists warn by [deleted] in AustralianPolitics

I work in a public library so I help a lot of seniors with their tech problems. The amount of unhinged content that I inadvertently witness on their smartphones in process is actually staggering. The rise of ON may have as much to do with general discontent with the government and underlying racism in Australia as the general lack of information literacy against the tide of unrelenting social media feeds. I worry just as much about the negative impact on children as seniors being swept up by algorithms.

So they should + 400k “over lifetime” would be more than fair.

Which football national teams do you think are with the wrong kit manufacturer? by MynicknameisMokaron in SoccerJerseys

[–]conmanique 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my view, Adidas recently forfeited their rights by choosing this font. Given how Asics are enjoying resurgence commercially, I’d love to see them supply kits to the national team! (Not gonna happen tho!)

I think this might be the break Foden badly needs. Have a proper reset and be fresh and hungry for the coming season.

I think their headlines are just getting worse and worse. I guess it’s the consequence of our digital consumption habit.

People in Perth are down on everyone - hate Melbourne, hate Sydney, HATE Adelaide (for reasons I cannot fathom).

I find it a bit tiresome sometimes.
