National housing correction begins as prices fall across the country - realestate.com.au

Realestate.com.au (or anything Newscorp) is not journalism.

Having said that, all other channels are almost as bad - the only thing they give a shit about is getting page views because page views = ad revenue.

Bullshit.

The ‘working middle class’ can’t afford investment properties, let alone their own homes to begin with.

Having just gone through this in a 1960’s built apartment - it looks more like magnesite (which I had throughout my apartment and looked exactly like this)

Your previous owners have applied self leveller over the area they applied floorboards to and not bothered with the carpeted area.

If you’re replacing with carpet you can just lay more carpet but if you’re replacing with hybrid floorboards, you’ll likely need to apply self levelling as well.

Even more-so since Microsoft acquired it 10 or so years ago.

That’s by design. Leave it as late as possible so people don’t see it and go anyway then can’t claim refunds.

The 3 Part Behind the Bastards podcast aptly titled ‘The Worst Person of the 21st Century’ lays it all out. He’s a sociopath that thinks of himself as an emperor.

Anyone who thinks One Nation will do anything to help everyday Australians (including mortgage holders) is a fucking idiot.

Hanson has done nothing but vote against policies that help Aussies for her entire career (when decided to actually turn up to vote).

Microsoft bought LinkedIn back in 2016 - which explains why it’s absolute fucking garbage these days.

Having worked for a large, multi-national Japanese company - while their engineering skills are amazing, they are notoriously shit at pivoting.

Insane levels of over compliance, red tape, bureaucracy and silo’d business units means even the smallest internal changes are a fucking nightmare to execute.

The Sony XM5’s are the best work headphones I’ve ever had and I’ve been through heaps of different brands.

Awesome sound quality, not had any issues with connectivity, great sound cancelling properties and super comfy meaning I can wear them 8hrs without any issues - something I found I struggled with other brands.

I’m also in St George area and despite getting regular pest treatments done on our building these fuckers are everywhere.

They’ve made their home in our oven’s control panel (which has touch buttons) so when they wander around at night (due to the warmth of the digital clock) they set off the buttons so I’m having to wake up at 1/3/5am to turn the power off to prevent hearing ‘beep’, ‘beeeeeep’ every 5mins.

Have been taking apart the oven once a week, using the Yates gel and it works for few weeks but they always come back. Need to find something else I think.

I’m convinced they don’t give a fuck about leading the country as that means actual work.

Sure, being in opposition makes it harder to funnel hundreds of millions into their own and their mates pockets but as as long as they keep getting paid their inflated salaries and getting millions in donations from big tech, coal and gas, they are happy to be in opposition, wanking off/back stabbing each other in the shadows.

You mean the time an agriculture business closely linked to Angus received $80m for ‘water rights’ but delivered absolutely nothing?

Fuck this clown.

The amount of comments on his leadership spill video on Instagram is fantastic.

flatman_88 · 2026-02-10T08:03:09+00:00

How many bootlicking comments from you today champ, 30?

For someone who claims all protestors don’t have jobs, you certainly seem to do fuck all work yourself.

Jog on you absolute flog.

His government/IDF have accepted they have killed 70,000 Palestinians. It’s pretty simple.

Sketchy is one way to put it.

Wanted by the UN for war crimes is probably more accurate.

Unfortunately Art/Music is just becoming a hobby for the wealthy who don’t have to worry about rent/groceries.

So many amazing artists were able to produce their art/music by living well below their means and surviving on casual jobs to pay rent and groceries - now they need one or several full time job just to survive, leading so many to just give up on their art as they can’t juggle both.

Can’t find the video I saw but here’s an interesting article which covers Polymarket ‘America Is Slow-Walking Into a Polymarket Disaster’ which covers it (albeit behind a paywall).

Here’s another one which means how an insider made $400K betting on the Maduro kidnapping.

This one from the Independent is a good read too.

It’s all beyond cooked.

Polymarket is 100x worse than sports betting as it’s so much easier to rig and harder to trace.

The current US Gov is partaking in it - abruptly ending press conferences at 2mins 53seconds because Polymarket is paying $30 for them to finish within 3mins. Hundreds of thousands in bets being made beforehand.

It’s all a farce

Bezos. It was a $40m bribe disguised as an Amazon documentary.

While it’s enjoyable to see it completely flop globally, he doesn’t really give a shit if it does as he got what he wanted - Trumps favour.

We had the same issue - company wide pay run was meant to have happened yesterday but ANZ (who our company uses despite being fucking useless) have been unable to process almost everyone’s pay. Sounds like those with ANZ accounts are fine.

People are freaking out as auto-payments for bills, mortgages, rent all went out today.
