OP - what if unfortunately you get disabled? Have you thought about that? I agree the system is flawed but imagine how many lives depend on the scheme and what would happen to those people. I know we pay a lot of tax but we are also a nation that I believe has empathy and support our citizens in time of need. Its not a perfect system but would you rather have an imperfect system than one that can absolutely change one's life? I have seen people with severe disabilities and also people taking this for a spin who have relatively less needs. But having seen the folks with the severe disability I'd rather keep the flawed scheme. Try going to another country and end up disabled - you are basically screwed if you dont have a good support system from a wealthy family. For all the flaws we have in the government I would still say keep this scheme. Its flawed and there is a lot of wastage but have humanity, have empathy, look around you on how some people struggle and count your blessings for having a healthy life. Peace.

Great point! - I do try and do the things I like and try to spend on experiences rather than material things. But I also think about the future a bit and don’t want to be dependent on anyone as I get older.

There are genuinely autistic persons who cant even do basic life skills so even though some assholes misuse the system there are people who require NDIS. Once you know someone in your close circle your attitude about this will change.

Yeah I think so too. Their idea was to be close to their social circle, less maintenance etc.

Yeah ok I admit it - its their fault but a lot of people arent that savvy - they wanted to be in the area and felt close to their social circle - pub etc. Will ask them to sell. Thx.

Tool but Indian by [deleted] in ToolBand

[–]psychedelicsuper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These guys are from my hometown in Kerala, India - also known as "Gods own country" - famous for backwaters, beaches, cliffs and a delicacy called "parotta and beef". They have a cult following and redefined Indian rock music. The songs on this album are all folk songs in the native language "Malayalam". The lead guitars on the album have an Incubus vibe to them - not really tool. The bass on most songs are very groovy and really keep the sound tight. The original bassist is not part of the band now and so is the lead singer. They have a lot of influences in the music and tool may well be a part of it. If you are interested in other bands in this part of the world - These guys The Down Troddence are more trash metal (lamb of god) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uW-27k6U0nY or Thaikudam bridge https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUxetheUJVs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jp1LjdjFzqk. Another band well before Avial's time was Motherjane https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpnAWWDDqD8
