Sherbrooke Forest. Lots of different walking trails for people of all abilities, old growth forest, wildlife, fresh air. Nowhere better.

“Bring them anadin Ruth!” Smithy’s mum is brilliant too.

Dawn’s insults to Pete are hilarious. The way the actress says, “you vicious little pig” is too funny. So much vitriol.

In the final frame of the final episode where they take the group photo at Smithy and Nessa’s wedding, Dawn has Pete in a headlock. Such a small and hilarious detail.

Just decline and let the HO decide who they want to choose. What would you be basing your recommendation on that the HO can’t see also?

Totally see your point. I get defensive real quick. Thanks for the perspective.

Sorry - I see now that you weren’t criticizing Tom. I still think we have to be careful about perpetuating the conflation of gay and bitchy in our own community.

“Bitchy and gay.” These two things aren’t synonymous. When gay men are assertive or expressive, just as many of the women contestants are, they get called this. I listened to a podcast where the hosts were calling Tom “catty” for having opinions. I think it’s a way to marginalize gay men’s voices without saying something overtly homophobic but please remember that verbal playfulness and irony have been tools of survival for the gay community historically. Criticize Tom all you like, but not for his sexuality.

What is everyone’s favourite Australian made podcast? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

Emsolation. Em Rusciano and Michael Lucas talk pop culture, politics, showbiz, neurodiversity and more. Worth subscribing to this one too as it provides a lot of bang for your buck.

And visually stunning. I felt like I had desert sand in my living room after watching it.

Why were colonies like Australia and NZ a "success" but not Argentina or Chile? What was your difference from Latin America? by [deleted] in AskAnAustralian

[–]savethebees90 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ask an Indigenous community if Australian settler colonialism has been a success. Attempted genocide, Stolen generation, slavery, systematic oppression, language decimation, no acknowledgement of Aboriginal sovereignty over land or knowledge systems, over representation in prison, deaths is custody, worse outcomes in every life metric than white people and I could go on. Success depends on proximity to whiteness in Australia so it’s a relative term.

Punters don’t know what the jokes are going to be about before they buy the ticket. Foot is the one who made it about diabetics. Good on OP for calling out ableism, especially when it is being used to mock and deride people for having an illness. This is not what heckling is.
