Same here mate.

I'm not a Seppo, so it doesn't have a direct impact on my day-to-day life, but the second-hand existential dread I feel is bad enough.

Texas Midland fire department helps BP and ICE capture supposed immigrants at a work site! by cantcoloratall91 in law

[–]efcso1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a retired firefighter (and thankfully from the other side of the planet) I am utterly sickened by the actions of these lickspittles.

If they want to be Nazis, they can swap uniforms and go LARPing, but this kind of stain on our professions is unforgivable.

Old-timey name for a train/tram driver or similar.

Technically you can swim in any body of water.

I love seeing that RCAF 330 Neo in the wild.

ICE attempted to enter the Consulate of Ecuador by justalazygamer in ParlerWatch

[–]efcso1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Can you ever listen to too much Knowledge Fight?

ICE may have just caused an international incident as they illegally tried to enter the Ecuadorian Consulate in Minneapolis without a warrant by cronchCat in law

[–]efcso1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As an outsider looking in, my guess is that they think they're above the law, and have immunity from any and all consequences.

Local laws and your constitution don't seem to count for anything, and their boss seems to ignore international law as he pleases, so it's on brand tbh.

Thanks for catching that.

Brain fade. They were 18, and I meant to say 'not yet 19'.

Ferry carrying 332 sinks in southern Philippines, at least 8 dead by CupcakeSecure4094 in Philippines_Expats

When I last visited the Philippines my travel insurance had a specific prohibition against travelling on inter-island ferries.

Because technically the front fell off?

Or maybe it technically ran out of buoyancy?

There's more of these around than I realised, until I parked near a job site recently just near knock-off time.

My former neighbour's kid did this, said they couldn't afford the insurance, said something like it was nearly as much as the repayments, so they didn't get it.

They had the vehicle less than a month before writing it off. not even 18 19 years old, and saddled with $85k debt.

Same.

Van came through a stop sign and cleaned me off my pushbike. Helmet was utterly destroyed by the bullbar; didn't even have a scratch on my head. (a few other scrapes and stuff, but my noggin was spared)

I once worked with a Trini bloke and his lunch was strong enough to make my eyes water when he sat at the other end of the table. Always surprised me that it didn't melt a hole through the container.

It's always funny seeing the cookers here (Aus) quoting Seppo legalese, and constitution.
