He fucking TOLD them what was going to happen. That’s the bit that gets me every time. That, the appeals to his non-existent better nature, and the fact that they still believe and would vote for him again

Gutless Australian Government

Saying Hi from Australia

I have used rise up for nearly a decade. VPN as well as email, and it is legit. I donate more, sporadically, than it would cost me to subscribe to equivalent alternatives, but that’s a choice. When I was poor and couldn’t afford to contribute, there was no question.

When a server was confiscated and subsequently returned, they wrote the server off rather than risk reconnecting it and potentially installing spyware.

There are limits: exit nodes are limited to (from memory), four or five.

For me, it’s a 4.5 out of five, and would only improve with more exit node functionality

The reference you are making is “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” Often rendered as “Who shall rid me of this troublesome priest?”

Per Wikipedia “attributed to Henry II of England preceding the death of Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury, in 1170. While the quote was not expressed as an order, it prompted four knights to travel from Normandy to Canterbury, where they killed Becket due to an ongoing dispute between crown and church. The phrase is commonly used in modern-day contexts to express that a ruler’s wish may be interpreted as a command by his or her subordinates. It is also commonly understood as shorthand for any rhetorical device allowing leaders to covertly order or exhort violence among their followers, while still being able to claim plausible deniability for political, legal, or other reasons.”

I got multiple awards on reddit for a stupid reaction to someone else’s comment. I was awarded several platinum things, multiple gold, had access to an exclusive lounge, all for a slightly drunk response to someone else’s comment, on someone’s post.

Got a little braver after that.

I feel like I have seen that cat somewhere before, but I don’t recognise them with their mask on

Have a look at Zenni.com. I ship their glasses to Australia, and bought three pairs for 1/4 the price of a single pair here

Rise up has changed their invite policy to one every 24 hours. I am sending out invites in order of request, but have had (to date) 21 DM’s. I have to draw a line and will send one per day until I am cut off.

Thanks

Yes. Still be a few hours, but will contact people shortly. Probably as soon as I am sober!🥃🍹🍾

No problem. I will be home later today and will DM you for an email contact.

I have about 5 invites if anyone is interested

I did! Which ages me. They remain one of the top three bands I have seen in person

“Another option available to Tesla is removing the rear-centre seatbelt and re-certifying the Model 3 as a four-seater.”

Which, if you purchased the vehicle needing or wanting a 5 seater, should make it not fit for purpose under Australian law and require a refund.

No longer do you tweet, you Xcrete

Edit. The gold below is worth far more than any reddit awards I got!
