Lilydale to Wooli today:

Dunno why but I love the left margin on the second bullet point. Really ties it together.

Wrote a 100 line Python script to merge volunteer contact lists across two different SaaS platforms for my nonprofit today. Kinda cool little puzzle I guess.

I believe you just described MCP

And Australia! And I am from both.

I imagine you are right

Feel free to repost

Exactly. No tactics or discipline. They look like they have no training. Muzzle sweeps, high tension and adrenaline.

Eat my shorts, honky

Correct. The border search exception is essentially a run around the fourth amendment and is a contentious subject in case law.

I was with you for a bit. But I disagree on a few points:

• I don’t think she was dragged down as much by Biden’s reluctance to drop out so much as her failure to differentiate herself from him. You could make an argument that Biden’s late exit and the lack of a primary worked against her. She also became known early on in his administration for being difficult to work with, but this might not have weighed heavily on the minds of a disengaged electorate.
• The “woke left” is basically ad hominem at this point. It’s a sort of shibboleth that right leaning voters understand but most left wingers and centrists tune out because it has been overused, sort of like “socialist” and “communist” before that. To be sure, there are irritating and unrealistic social justice warriors, but they are actually a minority and overrepresented in media.
• Gaza is a genocide. Don’t take it from me, take it from the ICC, the UN, various scholars, and many dispassionate third party observers. Not sure what you mean here, but in my opinion, genocide is not something to compromise on for the greater good. Kamala would have been better on this issue than Donald Trump, but this is a huge miscalculation by the people advising her.
• Denunciation of the far right is consistently a problem for Democratic leadership, with a few exceptions.

Democrats do need to realise that elections but particularly presidential elections are a gut check. People vote for the president that leads boldly and fearlessly. Someone who has conviction and doesn’t seem to deliver messaging that has been pre-planned. When Trump was shown to be inaccurate during the campaign, people liked him more because he appeared to be speaking extemporaneously.

True and well articulated.

Waiting on this movie to be made.

I think it was Buckminster Fuller? And Bertrand Russell? Who made similar predictions. What about the last hundred years had indicated to Mr. Gates that the number of hours worked will change?

There are plenty of trustafarians doing this in California, I assure you.

They get bored and travel and also go visit the doctor when they need to but many come back to this bucolic lifestyle.

That’s so well put. I’m thinking of finishing my electrical engineering degree just so I can get out of the increasingly strange web app industry

This is when someone in the military should take care of the problem. These men are a clear and present threat to the constitution.

Am also Aussie! I know that the Fair Work Commission and a bunch of unions negotiating award rates consider CPI but is that just one factor they consider or the whole enchilada?

Well they are in the category of bad MLK statues but yeah I agree oral sex is not very similar to a stern expression
