You mean like...someone who isnt either over the hill or has been around so long they have more baggage then the Kardashians? Lies. They will almost certainly go with a straight white male from a swing state with a fairly moderate platform. There is no way they go with Pete, being gay makes...

But that isnt what people are seeing. When you have bills and are worried about paying for your kids school, braces etc you're patience for long lofty goals wears thin quickly. I understand these things because I have 10 years of experience working in the Public Service, but to the average...

It's a joke, trust me wilder things have been said here.

Honestly if I was good looking Id get some OnlyFans to supplement. Im already whoring myself out to woolies, coles, the bank, insurers. I mean, how bad can internet pervs be.

Dont get me wrong, Im all for helping the environment and climate change. But if you are going to ban something, replace it with something at least equivalent. We just keep getting screwed. The worst thing is the talk of banning gas - sorry but you cant convince me that a gas stove and...

The reason climate change hasnt been well managed is more the fault of the left as opposed to the right. The initiatives to fight climate change make peoples lives harder and more expensive. It's hard to win people over when your solution is actively making things more difficult for people...

Down Syndrome is a spectrum, some people can function in society, but quite a few cant. Why take that risk when you can terminate the pregnancy and start again.

Im quoting Sylvia because he is somewhat relevant given his fervent MAGA support. The Democrats were very hopeful because of the turnout of young voters. I actually think that would not have gone the way they wanted. I think one of the big issues in a lot of liberal democracies is how they...

To each their own, hence why it's called pro-choice. Ive had a few severely disabled relatives (both mentally and physically combined) and I just wouldnt want that for my family. I wouldn't want my energy devoted to a child who will never have a life at the expense of other normal children who...

On the plus side, he is term limited. So after 4 years of this he will be gone for good. A big problem with the US is the short 2 year congressional terms. Since 2006 I think congress has flipped almost every single time. Part of the reason why nothing gets done. On a related note...

The level of denial on reddit. All the "How can people vote for Trump" people when Democrats have completely enabled this shitshow. They put Biden and Harris in 4 years ago, obviously with the understanding that Biden would serve a 4 year term and would groom Harris. Now, this is a great...

As I said in another thread, the abortion issue is absolutely toxic for the LNP - that election was much closer than it should have been because of it. Dutton at a Federal level has already told the Caucus that abortion is not to be touched because he doesn't want to gift Labour an election...

My partner and I have already discussed this, but when we try to have kids, if the pregnancy shows down syndrome or some other serious condition, we would terminate immediately. Quite frankly, its a burden to the family in every way for a person that is unlikely to participate in life. The...

Very unsurprising for anyone who was looking at the polls. I cant stand Trump as a person, but completely understand how he won again. So much of the blame goes to the Democrats for 10 years of failure when it comes to countering him. It's been a host of rubbish candidates, calling him a...

Crisafulli is a new Premier and that last thing he wants is his entire first year as Premier overshadowed by a bullshit issue that fringe people care about. Also, it is going to gift Labor an easy vote winner going into the next election. In all likelyhood, Crisafulli will make a deal with...

Queensland isnt banning abortion and Federally, Dutton has basically told the Liberal Party in no uncertain terms that its not happening and not on the agenda. The election in Queensland was much closer than expected because of abortion, the LNP should have won comfortably but the abortion...

So true. The HSC/ATAR is so so overrated in terms of importance.

Tell me you are in High School without telling me you are in High School. I had a mate do a Business degree with me, he went down the accounting route and he was getting top grades. He lasted less than 6 months as an accountant and he became a pre-school teacher. He is living his best life...

I should probably have put more detail, but with Medicine you really need to think it through. It is not a good career choice if you are just chasing money/prestige. Here are some things to consider: Medical training takes a very long time (8-15+ years depending on the area of practice) and...
