If a shop is selling illegal tobacco, it needs to be shut down. Full stop. And the landlords punished too. #auspol

@central01000011 There’s no actual merit to building anything there. It’s not going to somehow be better or more valuable than somewhere else in the area. At best, even if it’s “not worse” and noise, crowds etc wasn’t an issue, it still begs the question, what’s the point? It’s a vanity project.

@central01000011 We are the 6th largest country on earth, and are an entire continent. Somehow I don’t think we are -that- desperate that we need to build quite literally over the top of central station. It’s a novelty concept for density fetishists.

@Ol_Wall @central01000011 I didn’t say that (+ that’s another topic entirely). I just said that I don’t think it would be a suitable site for residential.

At the 2nd ever Bathurst 12 Hour in 1992, Allan Grice and Brad Jones entered a Holden Commodore Ute into the production car race. It was decently quick, getting 8th in early an test sessions, but would finish 26th due to the fuel tank delaminating and clogging the fuel system

@central01000011 My reasoning had nothing to do with economics or NIMBY/YIMBY-ism. It’s a stupid idea and we don’t need it anyway. Pretty simple.

@rakeau It was killed by nimbyism not economics. Nimbyism is an idiot tax that affects us all

@au_samschriever The biggest cultural problem in Australia is apathy. People who are ignorant or indifferent to politicians completely exponentially fucking everything up on a daily basis Maybe we need things to get that bad to break the spell before they get better.

🔥 BREAKING 🔥 People in Melbourne are being charged as the rollout of contactless payments at Myki gates hits an unexpected snag, with some people billed without even tapping on. Some commuters have reported being charged just by walking past one of the new tap-and-go readers.

@Red_dragon_fly @wtfinawtfworld So 30+ years of scope-creep socialism, deindustrialisation, demolishing power generation, mass 3rd world immigration, all that and more, both in Australia and Canada/USA/NZ/Europe… but yeah nah hey, that didn’t cause this mess, it’s all Trump. Solid logic

@wtfinawtfworld Perhaps if you grew up a little bit and and realised that it’s got very little to do with the government at the moment but to deal with the American government which is run by a far right political movement.

@BullfrogDusk @KarluskaP Her not getting off the plane when instructed is doing something wrong in and of itself. The airline will simply not take off with such people on board, so why make a scene and impact everyone else? Just say OK, politely ask about your luggage, and then follow the officers off.

@KarluskaP What's the context? There's not enough information for me to make a decision, but it seems from the video she has done nothing wrong.
