  1. earning money or spending money?

    You have to spend money to make money. I have the spending part locked down. 😂

  2. Last Game/Match Watched?

    NRL qualifying final Sharks vs Cowboys. It was all level at halftime, fulltime, end of extra time and finally the Cowboys won it in golden point. I don't support either team but it was an exciting game.

  3. Added to the Olympics?

    Definitely! Having them at the Olympics can only be good for the international game. As ideally the game really thrives when more teams are competitive. It is something union does better than league. But league has been improving. Also the eyes of some match officials are astounding. With all...

  4. Added to the Olympics?

    Yes! I am totally biased as it is my favourite sport to watch. But it would be a great addition. Would also be a leveling sport which would allow some of the smaller countries a serious shot at a medal.

  5. Added to the Olympics?

    I would like to see rugby league added. It is looking like their 9s format will be part of the 2032 Olympics too.

  6. Favourite Pizza Places?

    I would probably say my two favourites would be Domino's and Hell Pizza.

  7. Incompetence on the Stump...

    I remember there was a time when such incoherence being demonstrated by a political actor would truly astonish me. Sadly the more I have learned about politics and political history, the more I have realized that people like him are not really outliers. That sort of nonsense has a long history...

  8. CLIMATE CHANGE: THE HOAX THAT COSTS US $4 BILLION A DAY

    One side point which stood out to me from the quote is the notion that our consumerist lifestyles and culture are voluntary. I would be skeptical of this claim on a few counts. Firstly given the vast amounts of resources spent on marketing each year. With figures suggesting that worldwide...

  9. Report Shows Daunting Levels of Modern Slavery

    I would say that going by their definition they are giving extremely conservative figures too. As I would include things such as sweatshop workers in any category of modern slavery due to the conditions and nature of the work. It is absolutely stretching the definition of the term voluntary to...

  10. Another country's money?

    I have seen Australian and Japanese currency. I have also seen Monopoly money but I don't think it counts since it was the New Zealand edition. Therefore it is New Zealand currency.

  11. Tomatoes everywhere!

    Maybe the company I work for is excelling vastly more than I give them credit. :LOL: :LOL:

  12. What are you currently watching?

    Dragon Quest: The Adventure of Dai

  13. Tomatoes everywhere!

    Well done! Progress is made through small steps. 😂😂 I work in a distribution center and I can't even imagine this even happening twice in a year for us. 😂😂

  14. Birthdate

    A former coworker did that to me last year! Randomly wrote a happy birthday message to me on the staff whiteboard in a totally unrelated month. Had people wishing me happy birthday all shift. A team leader even gave me a box of chocolates and a card on behalf of the company. 🤦 I shared the...

  15. A Modern-Day Lynch Mob....

    I wouldn't be surprised if she had other issues going on in her life. Not that this would justify her behaviour in the slightest.

  16. Free Speech Group Criticizes University's Condemnation of Professorial Remarks Concerning Queen's Passing

    I must admit to be surprised, I wasn't expecting a free speech group to show this level of integrity. Especially as they tend to be more often than not be right leaning in their politics. As for the tweets themselves, I have been seeing increasing critiques levelled at the Queen for the role...

  17. A Modern-Day Lynch Mob....

    Unfortunately there is a troubling trend of White women being enablers for racism, so this doesn't surprise me. It isn't any of her business whether or not someone else is wearing a bra. So much entitlement to other peoples' bodies.

  18. Is a university degree necessary to get a good job?

    It shouldn't be necessary. And in some fields it isn't necessary. Unfortunately in an increasing portion of our societies we are finding that it is being used as a gatekeeping measure. The attainment of a degree is being used to maintain social hierarchy which is why we are seeing things like...

  19. Should the rich be taxed more?

    Yes, I absolutely agree with the notion that the rich should be taxed more. This applies to tax brackets, areas of income actually taxed and the closing of loopholes.

  20. Pro-life or Pro-choice?

    I am completely prochoice. I think that whether or not she goes through with her pregnancy should be at her discretion. I also think part of this means the ready availability of reproductive health facilities so that the right to an abortion is actually feasible and not locked behind geography...
