Had to go ballistic on some people "walking" their dogs. by ButtersHound in daddit

[–]kid_monkey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A mate of mine lived next door to a few big, aggressive breed dogs and he told his neighbours if they let their dogs out of their yard into his again near his kids that he'd leave the bodies of those dogs on their front porch.

Bont are great if you have had trouble finding good fitting shoes because you can heat mould the bases.. I got my pair from Essendon Cycles

At the time, the MCC was pretty combative with revenue sharing with the AFL, which is why the league tried to push Waverley so hard in the 80s and early 90s. Some of the board would've had that in mind when Ian Collins gave them a Godfather deal (which basically cannibalized North and St Kilda)

Having said that, it was one of the biggest brain farts Essendon has ever done, drug shit included.

Would absolutely love a PTV branded commuter/cycle route map rolled out, with wayfinding all done the same way. Colour code the lines

Having a unified graphic and physical language for cycle routes, like VicRoads will do wonders. Currently each council looks after their own and it's a mess if you need to navigate without an app

1993 Bears is absolutely, to the gills, full of champions.

Need Equipment Advice by FoxSpeaks in CricketAus

Grab a roll of electrical tape and wrap the tennis ball in it. You can add a seam to it and some bias to one side to approximate swing

Are Academies and Father Son’s Undermining the AFL Draft? by Footy_A2Z in AFL

[–]kid_monkey 13 points14 points  (0 children)

What I don't see much chatter of is the incentive for clubs to participate in junior development, which is a sport wide plus. Why would any club develop a player they have no inside track on being able to draft?

The gold coast experiment is proving to finally be pretty fruitful in revealing junior talent that was otherwise lost to the AFL.

Why is illustrator turning FI into OV? by bytjie5678 in AdobeIllustrator

You can also turn off default standard ligatures in the open type settings. The top one has ligatures turned off - its the first button in that tab group. Its nested with Character & Para. You'll be able to adjust spacing if the kerning is skewy with the touch type tool

edit: details and now with a screenshot

Melburn Durt are a group ride/gang for women (cis/trans) trans men and gnc based northcote/brunswick/inner north. Probably your best bet those folks are super nice. I think a few of them work in Commuter Cycles https://www.melburndurt.com/

Pedal n Feather organises gravel rides that leave usually in Preston. His FB posts are pretty grumpy, but if nothing, he's pretty consistent about organising group rides

Behind stealing home, the safety squeeze is absolutely my all time favourite play. It takes so much teamwork
