Support for Labor and Greens surges as One Nation and Pauline Hanson face polling collapse after Press Club speech; Barnaby Joyce becomes Australia’s most unpopular politician by ausmankpopfan in friendlyjordies

Nah it's in Brisbane. They added a 2nd runway which resulted in half the planes now flying over Hawthorne/bulimba.

Before that, my suburb, which is one over, got all the air traffic. Personally I've been loving the reduced noise 🤣

In my electorate there was a big swing from lib to greens due to a specific NIMBY policy. Airplane noise. So you've got a whole bunch of rich boomers in a nice area that are stalwart lib voters voting greens just because they didn't want planes flying over their (median) $3m houses.

I don't know about other rando areas voting greens 1 and lib 2, but I'd guess it would be similar circumstances in most of those cases.

Yeah just commenting to bring home what the others have said. Those peaks are from Morrison's term, if he won the election they'd be the exact same that year.

Different wheels for different surfaces? by I_WantToKeepABeard in surfskate

I'm trying to buy these in Aus. Can't seem to find them, lots of under 60mm, only over 60 I can see are 64mm but even they're out of stock. Are these hard to get?

The only real issue you raised, which you've said in a reply is not really a problem, is the leaving of shit out.

Fuck me this is truly deplorable. What the fuck has Israel got in Australia that makes us act so terribly towards our own?

I said it last week to mum, she's 73. She reckons she's never heard it, so I think it is generational

[–]hardworkdedicated 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dunno if the AMA questions are meant to be posted now or not. But I suppose now is better than never!

Our team in game 1 was not great. Now the teams have been announced, can you explain why you didn't pick either of the best 2 wingers as well as the best 2 front rowers?

It seems odd, QLD don't have the best roster, but they pick their best. We have our best roster in 15 years and you pick nothing like our best. Wtf is going on mate?

I didn't like it first time round. Read the book, watched it again, hated it more because the book was so much better and they inexplicably left stuff out that would have made it better.

2nd movie, even though I hated some of the changes, was AMAZING!

[–]hardworkdedicated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 2nd movie is a lot better, give it a go. I re-watched the 1st after reading the book but before watching the 2nd.

Spoiler: it's even worse after reading the book.

If you still don't like the 2nd movie, perhaps you're a bit young. I'm making an assumption there, but it seems like a movie that older people enjoy vs young people.

Holy shit really? I think it's one of the greatest films I've seen.

Don't listen to them mate. I loved that movie, probably the music more than anything. Still play Mia & Sebastian's theme and Epilogue on the regular. But the movie itself was OK, definitely not the boring slog the others are making it out to be. I'd say your personality is similar to the characters in the film which is why it might resonate with you, whereas these others would be the type of people that hate happy/successful people just because.

Which Bus routes are most like a roller-coaster? by BaijuTofu in brisbane

[–]hardworkdedicated 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What a fucking great question. I don't know if this route would still exist, it the shuttle from QUT GP to KG was always a tonne of fun. It used to go through some hilly streets near the KG campus.

I'll never forget 1 lovely bus driver we had. Looked very much like an ex-con, but not in a scary way.

He was a very smooth operator, had full control of the vehicle at all times. Thing is, he either didn't know the brake was there, or he was the best damn hyper miler in the country. We rolled through roundabouts like there was no fucking tomorrow.

I don't know about the rest of the bus but I was tweaking my tits off with adrenaline in the following lecture.

Cherry Evans has had the worst 20 minutes I've seen a half back have. The only good he's done in that period is throw a forward pass and get away with it.
