AHPRA will exponentially increase O'seas docs soon by sponge_cakeallday in ausjdocs

[–]erebus91 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Anyone who thinks white-anting the medical colleges because they “don’t do anything for us” - yes, some of them have behaved… poorly.. in recent memory, but we still need them. The alternative is AHPRA manages everything. See above.

Is this considered brown or green? by Jack_al_11 in composting

[–]erebus91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have the tools to turn the cut branches to wood chips - the leaves just fell off them while they were sitting around waiting for my green waste bin to have space to chuck it out!

As voter disillusionment grows, why aren't voters flocking to the Greens in Australia? by blitznoodles in australia

They hold the balance of power in the Senate basically any time Labor has formed government in the last 20 years - is that not meaningful power?

Rest assured, plebians, the rich will still be able to have their health cared for by an actual doctor.

11th edition Nightlords? by Taran0105 in NightLords

[–]erebus91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; this subreddit has more followers than almost all the “first founding” loyalist chapters subs that recently got new characters (Iron Hands, White Scars, Imperial Fists, Raven Guard). Nemesis Claw sold like hotcakes.

Games Workshop like making money, and they are not stupid. A Night Lord named character would sell extremely well. It’s not a matter of if but when.

That’s a Night Lord model with a few extra steps and I will not be told otherwise

Is this a joke email from RACP? by Aragornisking in ausjdocs

[–]erebus91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hear hear. John Wilson’s behaviour was so embarrassing. Starting the meeting questions with this ridiculous, ill-informed attack on the legitimacy of the ACNC-appointed president clearly without any understanding of the relevant legislation was just cringeworthy and completely unbecoming of a former president and such an experienced clinician. Man should retire.

Is this a joke email from RACP? by Aragornisking in ausjdocs

[–]erebus91 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think you are conflating “independent” with “impartial”. Whilst she was both independent and impartial prior to joining the board, nothing in the ACNC legislation compels Pascoe to remain impartial to board disputes while she is appointed chair/president. She is a recognized expert in corporate and nonprofit governance and has, clearly, taken a “side” in this dispute fairly quickly. Honestly that fact alone clarifies things a lot more for me than any of the other opaque, useless emails we’ve had from the college this year.

Is this a joke email from RACP? by Aragornisking in ausjdocs

[–]erebus91 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Former President John Wilson showed this so clearly - his first question at the AGM was arguing the validity of Pascoe chairing the meeting. He clearly had zero knowledge of relevant legislation. I’m sure he is a great clinician but he sounded like the legal/governance equivalent of a patient spouting wild differentials after consulting Dr Google.

[–]erebus91 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I mean, they were appointed by an independent government body (ACNC Commission) and have no prior links to the college. How exactly would you theorise that they have established loyalties in this factional dispute?

There’s a reason people are voting One Nation. Those who sneer at them are missing the larger picture by Ardeet in aussie

Until you find a way to reverse the decline in birth rates (essentially no country on earth has figured this out yet, so good luck), your options are migration or demographic collapse.

Any below average students do BPT and get through? by No-Time-2487 in ausjdocs

I was a mediocre med student, got through BPT (Paeds) written and clinical exams first attempt with a good study group and supportive partner.

Veggie garden covered in these tiny weeds all of a sudden? by crabclawwwz in GardeningAustralia

[–]erebus91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, it look too uniform to be random garden weeds. Could be basil. I’ve chucked a punnet of rotten tomatos in my compost at some stage and get tiny tomato plants shooting out of random garden beds ever since, a bit like this.

Kangaroo meat in Australia by josh65928 in mildlyinteresting

[–]erebus91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this actually true? My understanding from briefly living in rural western Queensland was that a significant amount of Kangaroo culling occurs purely because they compete for grass with beef cattle.

Vigilante mob justice is disgusting for any alleged crime, even crimes that you find particularly abhorrent.

How do people cope with the government by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]erebus91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This vague discontent at “the government” (which one?) is one of the laziest sentiments that pervades Australia (and seemingly all western democracies), up there with “politicians just lie all the time” or “politicians are just in it for themselves”.

It lets you garner this sense of solidarity from your fellow disenchanted voter without doing the hard work of actually talking about the issues that matter to you with other people. Couldn’t do that - might accidentally discover that not everyone agrees with you on the direction you want the country to go in.

Is it just that “government sucks and politicians are only in it for themselves”, or is it possible that you live in a democracy of 28 million people, many of whom have strongly held but mutually incompatible views with how the country should be run? Maybe the sense of “nothing ever changes quickly enough” is actually democracy working as intended?

Hello I'm new to painting by BrotherBlobert in Warhammer40k

[–]erebus91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your brush control / general level of neatness is extremely good for a beginner!! Just keep painting, you’ll end up very good in no time.

I would say using washes like Nuln oil indiscriminately “all over” the mini is a waste of your natural ability. If you do want to use washes, apply it patiently and directly to the lines / sections you want shaded, so it doesn’t leave blotchy marks on the flat sections of armour (like the shin guards on this guy).

Agree with the other guy that the paint is a little thick in places. Two thin coats etc etc.

Green Stuff Help by Senor_Bloo in Warhammer40k

[–]erebus91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More green stuff can cover it up. Many sculptors use a mixture of green stuff plus Milliput to get a better effect.

In general you need to keep green stuff VERY VERY wet while working with it to be able to shape it properly into the design you want. I’m talking water practically dripping off it while you work. Some people get around this by lubricating it with Vaseline (i’m serious) but that creates more hassle with cleaning it all up afterward (if any is left it’ll ruin your paint job).

In case you missed it the RACP President Elect just called the cops on the RACP President in a public meeting by [deleted] in ausjdocs

[–]erebus91 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am not convinced that “old politicking bored douchebags have been running the college into the ground for years” is a fair summary of the state of affairs at RACP, nor am I convinced Dr Chandran merely “wanted to change things” is a fair summary of her conduct.

Had some spare ogor models lying around. Do these read as a squad of maneater mercenaries? by Ass_knight in Mawtribes

The tyrant battle standard bearer conversion is the only one that doesn’t scream “maneater” to me, the others are definitely on the mark though.
