@MurrayHillGuy1 How is playing board games, drinking beer, and traveling a mid life crisis?

If you're a millennial it's time to pick your midlife crisis: 1. Quitting alcohol 2. Running 10 miles before work 3. Divorce 4. Panic baby at 35 with wife you hate 5. Pickleball 6. ADHD diagnosis 7. Dressing like you did in 2004 8. Blacking out every weekend like you’re 21 9. Weekly hinge dates 10. Ice baths and saunas 11. Board games and craft beer in the suburbs 12. Getting into tattoos 13. Quitting your job to explore your “passions” 14. Plants and the environment 15. Traveling

@RealJohnRose Moronic take. When voting is compulsory politicians/policy adjusts to appeal to everyone. Creates more normal policy and normal political landscape. Works in Australia. Whether or not you disagree with me, it’s still a well and truly functional society.

100% public participation in voting would be the death of every functional society that has ever existed.

@PubRockVersion We were saying ceebs in 2009 in Melbourne. Definitely not Gen Z

Just discovered that "ceebs" is a NZ slang term and not just some worldwide Gen Z word?

@MattisRedacted Couldn’t care about the “sacredness” but it looks like shit. Half finished, scree still messily sitting everywhere, framed bizarrely, totally out of scale with its surrounds, not used the medium in any thoughtful way, and it ruins the pristine environment.

The hatred for Mount Rushmore has to be one of the funniest manufactured grievances of all time. First of all, it’s an incredibly impressive work of art in design, execution, and scope. If someone had carved it out of a giant block of granite rather than a mountain, nobody would say it’s ugly. In fact, it’s not even that it’s a mountain. It’s the belief that the mountain was spiritually sacred to the Lakota, when in reality the Lakota originated along the Mississippi and had only been in the Black Hills for about a century. Before 1775, the Black Hills were Cheyenne territory. The Lakota drove them out and took over, and then were themselves driven out by the United States in 1877. That means as of 2026, the United States has held the Black Hills for longer than the Lakota ever did. This isn’t to say that the location wasn’t important to the Lakota, but that it was important to them in the same way that it’s important to us. If someone were to shoot for a reasonable argument as to why it’s insulting to the Lakota, then they should argue that we only came to own those lands as a result of breaking the Treaty of Fort Laramie, thus making the carvings a monument to treachery. Even if you do make that argument, though, it doesn’t change the fact that it’s a great work of art.

@cosmicjester Victorian slang seems to take the shortened word based on what is said, not spelled, in the derived from word. You say Kinder when saying kindergarten. Parma in Parmigiana. Makes sense Happy to yield to the north on potato cake/scallop though.

There always a lot of potato cake/scollop discourse but not enough about Victorians calling kindy ‘kinder’ and Queenslanders calling school bags ‘port’ or something. Two cursed terms that should be removed from the lexicon.

@euphybird @twinkdefcon Learning an instrument is incredibly beneficial. Equal to learning another language, teaches long term discipline, no instant dopamine rewards, analog (zero screen time). Most highest achievers also learning instruments is no coincidence

@twinkdefcon I don't see what the piano lessons is supposed to accomplish except to flex money and sophistication

@gnostic_bf Lovely! I try to go once a year, it’s such a great spot

Went to check if the central highlands is still the most beautiful place in the world... Yep, still perfect!

@Brocklesnitch The Chestnut Man, only 6 episodes. Great stuff.

i need a really engaging thriller or mystery tv show to watch. but not too smart im on holiday. something that whirs my brain along with cliffhangers and such. nothing with heaps of seasons im looking for a fling

@TheRealPlanC I might have missed it, but what is the invalidation level for your idea that we keep pumping through next year?

Are you ready?

Job agency companies and bosses continue to make an extraordinary amount of money from a Mutual Obligations system we now know operates unlawfully Here's the latest example of what they're doing with that public funding. Enjoy Sarina at the Louis Vuitton resort in St Tropez

@benjamincowen @ITC_Crypto The metric takes data from channels which are irrelevant now. I agree social interest is lower this time but it’s not dynamic enough in the sources it draws from to be anywhere near accurate.

#BTC Social Interest remains low

@CryptoJelleNL Half of me thinks it’s onwards and upwards, the other half thinks this looks exactly like the 2021 top

#Bitcoin bouncing after partially filling the CME gap. Get back above 120k and we can forget about the scary PPI number - and move on to higher prices. Until then, it remains an Altcoins world.

@lexlisbon Is this a joke? The board game industry has literally never been bigger. Over 1k new titles published yearly, non stop audience growth. People just say the most ludicrously incorrect things on this app.

it sucks that no one enjoys board games these days. no one wants to play 3 hours of monopoly anymore

@Joshua_Black97 ‘07 was the anomaly rather than 22 and 25. The papers will always back the LNP so they’ll just simple be wrong any time Labor wins.

Australian newspapers used to be good at backing winners. Over the past 30 years, most major newspapers backed the winner. Until 2022 and 2025, that is, when newspaper editorials came down on one side and voters came down on the other. 1/5 #Auspol2025

@crypto_thors @AltcoinDailyio Holy shit this is the most cringe thing I’ve ever seen

@AltcoinDailyio Just in I still have the video lmao

🛑 JUST IN: Solana DELETES commercial after massive backlash.

@wclemente It’s still up this year more than almost any other non-crypto asset. People forget that Eth was absolutely hated last cycle too until April 2021 when it started ripping. Then it was the golden child until after the merge. Same thing will happen next year.

The only bull case left for ETH is that so many funds have been running a pair trade of longing just about anything against shorting it for the last two years and making tons of money because it's been such a horrible asset to own.

@benjamincowen But it is different. Time frame of this wedge is 3 times longer. If it goes down to where you say then it’s done for the cycle, no new ATH, unless we have a lengthened cycle. Not arguing for or against, but just stating that for you to be right it has to be very different

You can see how #ETH continues to follow its 2016 and 2019 paths quite closely. #ETH / #BTC breaking down was the warning signal. This time is not different.

@guywhoiswoke Once again, someone not in the target demographic complains about the content of triple J. Shocking and brave.

What is the worst piece of dialogue that you have ever heard in a movie?

@insightlane Jessica Fox is the goat. She doesn’t get 23 events per Olympics to get medals like the swimmers do.
