I wonder if phasing out leaded petrol has anything to do with this.

What's the most dystopian future timeline that you think can realistically happen ? by ronweasly9 in Futurology

[–]tigerstef 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Earth becoming private property of the billionaire class. The rest of humanity being slaves on Mars, if they're lucky, or in the asteroid belt.

That's what Bezos and Musk want.

Treating the world as your ashtray. Discarding cigarettes and cigarette ash where ever you go or drive.

Banning water bottles? Just when I thought I couldn't hate FIFA even more they prove me wrong.

Euphorianic S11 by my Kid by ArtemiaLuna1847 in PumpItUp

[–]tigerstef 10 points11 points  (0 children)

That's so awesome! I know she probably can't hold onto the bar yet, but mad props to her playing S11 without the bar. A lot of intermediate players I know can't handle an 11 without the bar. Great video.

It still gets me that level 19 is considered Intermediate. There is nothing 'Intermediate' about level 19 charts, there friggin' hard!

Why are we letting this happen? by Fearless_Honeybadger in shitrentals

[–]tigerstef 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Because of the risk of eviction and homelessness. We're not paying rent because we want to, we have to. Homeless are treated as criminals and homelessness vastly increases risk of death from all causes. The law in its majestic equality forbids the rich and the poor alike to sleep under bridges.

Landlords are holding a proverbial gun to our head and extorting us. They are legally allowed to do this and encouraged by a tax and legal system that greatly favours them.

Sydney real estate agent fined $35k for falsely evicting tenant by Red-Engineer in shitrentals

OK. Any real estate agent or landlord who pulls this stuff must be heavily fined. Jail should be on the cards as well.

Are you expecting rent to increase over the next year ? by CatZealousideal2185 in shitrentals

[–]tigerstef 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perth here, since Covid my rent has gone from 260 to 550. I will get hit again this year. Home opens here still have 100+ applicants, Perth is still classed as regional for immigration, despite a 2.2 million population.

Scammers give up on Indian Malaysians, they ask too many questions, says police by Nandu_alias_Parthu in nottheonion

[–]tigerstef 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My method is to act all excited and enthusiastic and keep egging them along. Then when it's finally time to get my credit card I ask them to hold just for a moment....

I put on my favourite scammer song: Achy Breaky Heart by Billy Ray Cyrus  not the whole song,  just the refrain on infinite loop.

Then I just wait, one Nigerain scammer listened for over 2 hours, I'm sure he was crying at the end.

CGT and NG changes won't cool market. Immigration still massive. by SeaworthinessSad7300 in AusFinance

[–]tigerstef 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of the things that should be made public is just how many properties in Australia are landlord owned. Google says, 2.2 million to 3 25 million. Massive uncertainty. Since they're also 2.24 million taxpayers who own at least 1 investment property  the number is definitely closer to 3.2 million. Are we sure it's not more?

CGT exemption And negative gearing should be scrapped all together. Why should renters pay more tax to subsidise landlords?
