Let us know about recurring donations, if we can see funding goals easily, we can decide how much we’d like to contribute to make sure running costs are met.
- Comment on "We're building an army:" Angry anti-renewable groups take to city streets ahead of state election 1 week ago:
As someone who grew up in a remote rural Victorian town, only coming to Melbourne as an adult, this to me is the strongest domestic indicator of what the current UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham recently announced regarding the 2016 UK Brexit Vote.
Growing up around and knowing varying types of personality traits from that region, consistently there was a greater understanding for the environment and how to manage it in order to benefit from it.
This was prevalent and consistent to those on farms and the many that rarely stepped foot on a farm. The inner town people weren’t much different from Melbourne suburbans, but most had a Greens leaning when it came specifically to environmental matters.
It was the more complicated social issues that were seen as a ‘city issue’, and a consensus that the Nationals were the only way to have a rural voting block, even if they aligned with what was strongly seen as a city party.
Personally I always felt that rural voters would be greater represented by a block of independents, rather than trading most of their votes to a city party for minimal concessions and the odd pork barreling, but that’s neither here nor there.
To see rural people, who exist and live in the very environment that they themselves often have a conscientious understanding of responsibility for, fall into emotional misinformation and manipulation, really brings home just how significant an issue of political manipulation farms are from outside each of our democracies.
We need to consider what political free speech means for Australians in Australia and how it relates to people from outside of Australian IP addresses, whilst avoiding the loss of the inherent right to privacy that is mutually necessary in a democracy.
Australians don’t have a right to free speech, but we do have the right to political free speech, I don’t see how people commenting or posting from an IP address outside of the Australian geolocation would fall under our right to that.

Speaking of KPI’s, the other day I received a package from Amazon that had to be returned and I suspect it’s KPI related.
My assumption is that their warehouse staff KPI’s deincentivise putting on bandaids because the thing I bought had blood sprayed on it.
Got a refund, replacement & $50 credit.

Going through the settings in my GrapheneOS phone, it appears you can turn it off, but the government obviously wouldn’t want people doing so as it’d be off in a future emergency.

Yeah, if aussie.zone isn’t reachable at 00:00 then there is no automatic posting, the alternative is it keeps trying which risks the creation of multiple threads.

Vic Public Transport to be free for the month of April
It’s the right thing to do, hopefully my already too busy and under-serviced line won’t be too much worse.
