@Xking332 another 'we're in end times' doomsday prediction. Will life get easier, no, will society collapse - it's possible, especially if people keep electing feckless Presidents

Soon there won’t be food. There won’t be fuel.
Stocks will go to zero.
Most metals will go to zero.
Everything you thought was safe gets wiped out.
Bitcoin will survive.
The middle class will be crushed.
People won’t even be able to afford to eat.
They will be hungry for weeks.
Companies will go bankrupt.
Jobs will disappear.
And when people get desperate, crime will go up.
There will be murders and robberies.
And the system will normalize them.
Governments will convince you it's ok.
This is the collapse phase.
We’re heading straight into one of the darkest periods of humanity.
The only way out is the war has to end before it's too late.

@BikoKonstantin1 Where can you go? Parts of Europe, America, Canada, NZ, some places in Asia might be ok (Thailand?). But all of Africa, South America, Russia, China, the middle East, the Sub-Continent are probably no go. There are a reason people chose to move here...

Leave Australia NOW (Before It’s Too Late)
Imagine grinding your whole life in one of the richest countries on Earth… and still feeling broke. Welcome to Australia, where you save for years and years only to discover that a house now costs over a million bucks for a mingy doxbox. And if you can’t buy, you're forced to compete in the Rental Hunger Games. So here’s the uncomfortable question: If you can no longer afford a home in the Australia, maybe the real solution - is leaving. ✈️✈️✈️

@F1HardWalls4k They all deserve it and there are a few others that should be there - such as Clark.

Once our farmland is gone… there’ll be no getting it back. Solar panels belong on malls and parking lots. Not on farmland.

@van00sa We'd sell it for 10c a litre overseas, get not royalties for it and local consumers would pay $4 a litre. Like gas.
English
@AvidCommentator and we were so hasty in dragging anyone who worked from home back to the office... imagine all the fuel pointless commuting consumes.
English
Its absolutely silly that the government still hasn't told Australians to voluntarily conserve fuel.
We need to squeeze out every last extra day of supply if we can.
Albo needs to get real, we aren't a developed nation on this, we are hopelessly third world.

@DemoniacoASX Ok, so you didn't consider just using a VPN... a lot less traumatic.

I cant believe I'm even thinking this, but honestly if I had to choose between Albo and ScoMo for a crisis PM to play international trade hard ball, I'd have to go with Morrison.
So far Albo's approach to this crisis has been at best poor.

@lovedropx Depends on what else is in the bread and how processed the product is. Wheat and rice in its original form aren't bad for you. Highly processed, packet breads probably aren't good for you.
English
"Bread is bad for you," "rice is bad for you"—sorry, I'm not subscribing to the idea that staple grains that have been integral to cultures for centuries are evil. I love you, carbs.
English
@Jvhnaik @lovedropx Carbs are actually the only macronutrient that you can live without. You need fibre, fat and protein - carbs are optional.
English
@lovedropx Carbs are essential, but we have to be mindful of portions and how we consume them—pair with fiber, protein, and veggies for balance. Love the staples, enjoy smartly! 😊

@MV33Racing Jesus Christ, its hardly the greatest moment in F1 history. Not even the most controversial.

The greatest moment in F1 history.
The day Max Verstappen ended 7 years of Mercedes dominance and saved the sport.

@DirtMccGirt @westyweb @peter_tulip Libs like high migration as it's importing cheaper labour and wage suppression for everyone else.
English
@westyweb @peter_tulip The libs called for mass immigration too. It’s just that they didn’t want to house them too densely in their safe electorates.
It’s a good thing now Lib voters will be forced to live with the consequences of their actions and build the high rises.

I went to a public meeting to discuss 150 apartments in Castlecrag.
It was an extended parade of rudeness and selfishness.
Like NIMBYs everywhere they argued "We know there is a housing crisis, but our suburb is special. It needs to be preserved." 1/5

@simonj3me @lesstenny I could afford my loan at 10%, but between fuel, insurance hikes, rates hikes and now loan hikes etc, I'm not spending any more than I have to. Fuck it. I'll help them squash inflation.
English
@lesstenny I disagree - if a mortgage holder can't pay an interest rate of 10% then they shouldn't have a mortgage. Rates going up by 0.25% should not concern anyone who has not bought beyond their means.
English
Fresh blow to mortgage holders RBA hikes official interest rate to 4.1% going up again probably in May 😬
English
@taipan168 Same people who claim this wouldn't pay the $3 or $3.50 a litre it would cost - same as usual, Australian made sounds great and would be great, but the consumer buys a cheaper product.

It's utterly amazing that some people believe that there are 200 billion barrels of oil worth $20trn that could be economically extracted and refined in Australia and turn us into the next Saudi Arabia but aren't because something something "wokeness".
James 🌸🏴🇦🇺@comical_engr
South Australia may be sitting on one of the largest untapped oil resources on Earth. Australia is also... #1 exporter of iron ore #1 lithium producer #1 LNG exporter #1 coal exporter on Earth And the 3rd largest energy exporter on the planet. In other words… Australia helps power the world. Yet we still import most of the oil that keeps the whole thing running. Which makes even Adelaide, super interesting… Back in 2013–14, studies suggested the Arckaringa Basin near Coober Pedy could contain 200+ billion barrels of shale oil equivalent. Some estimates at the time suggested the resource could be worth around $20 trillion, and that's now over 10 years ago. Meanwhile Australia carries around $1 trillion in government debt. For context, Saudi Arabia has about 240 billion barrels. Venezuela around 300 billion. If those estimates are even close… That's Trump takeover territory Saudi-Arabia scale. Honestly, people in Adelaide should be sitting on gold-plated toilets by now and living the high life. Instead… Australians hand over close to 50% of their earnings in taxes and charges. Countries with big energy reserves like this usually turn that wealth into national assets. Norway built a $1.7 trillion fund from oil. For a country this resource-rich... you’d think we could at least afford our own fuel. So the obvious question is... Where exactly is all the money going? Credit: Marc Owen

@RestoreAussies yet you propose no tested solutions. patriotic business owners should be the first tosser's made to walk the plank.
English
This government is dangerously incompetent, at a crucial time in our financial cycle.
Australian businesses and borrowers are not ready for the perfect storm that is brewing with fuel prices, inflation, and the overheated housing market. We must prepare mentally for a decade of high interest rates and an extremely tough business environment which will crush productivity even further.
The government should be fiscally shrewd to try and get this all back under control, but they have their fingers pressed firmly on the money printer, are importing millions of third world migrants and have no infrastructure/preparation for our energy and fuel crisis that is rapidly unfolding.
Australia needs change 🇦🇺
The Great Martis@great_martis
Who's ready for 10% mortgage rates? Australia leading the way.

@Verstappenn_ Is X reserved for moronic takes on Verstappen. Great driver, duff fan base.

I’d argue that Max is more impressive, Lewis walked into the best car on the grid and took 6 races to win, max started in a toro rosso but when given the opportunity in a front running car he won on DEBUT AT 18!!!!
𝓓𝓸𝓶𝓲𝓷𝓲𝓬 𝓣𝓸𝓻𝓮𝓽𝓽𝓸⁴⁴@TorettoOffcl
I bet this record won’t be broken even in the next 100 years of F1. 🐐 #LewisHamilton #F1

@chrisprimod Housing market would collapse and, in the process, so much discretionary spending would leave the market, and we'd be in recession in no time.
English
@versatancore Half the field retired from every race until the early 2000's. A hatful of retirements isn't really an issue.
English
Oooooo fun game.
Since Lewis Hamilton won his first race in 07, there have been 18 new winners. Name them
