An experience of a Yes voter at a pre poll booth..
AEC staff abused by No campaigners.
No Voters defaced voter cardboard booths.
No voters had written NO all over voter booths.
This is what Dutton & RW media hve triggered in Aus. Hate & division.
Pls call this behaviour out.

Once met a British oil exec in Lagos. The day before, he’d been to a disastrous party at a top minister’s house. The invitation said ‘Fancy dress compulsory’. He had no fancy dress, but was an enthusiastic scuba diver and by chance had his gear with him. He dressed up, took a cab to the house, rather surprising the driver, squelched up the drive in wet-suit, mask & fins, climbed the steps, and found himself in the midst of the party. All the men were wearing dinner jackets, since in Nigeria ‘fancy dress’ means ‘black tie’. He fled back down the drive and understandably had problems getting a cab to take him back to his hotel.

Perth councils defend crackdown on people sleeping in vans amid nationwide rental crisis-ABC
We can’t provide a roof over these people heads and now prevent them sleeping in cars. What sort of heartless bastards have we become?
(Very) Old habbits die hard. I just went to run someting out of /opt, and my fingers automatically typed "/opt/onbld/" before I realised.

How the fuck do we live in a country where LNP politicians will spend decades hurting the most oppressed and vulnerable Australians then turn up today in an RUOK badge as if they’re amazing fucking heroes?

One of the most common issues raised in discussion of the referendum vote is “why are so many Aboriginal people voting no?” The campaign needs to address that: why do we expect indigenous Australians to have a monolithic view?? We don’t expect it of ourselves. #Yes23

Brilliantly put.
Simple.
Easy.
i'm told there are many australians who haven't seen how simple the proposed constitutional amendment is…
i certainly hadn't seen it categorised into four parts.
it's really simple.
recognition + listening → better outcomes
let's get it done, together. #yes23

If your company is always "experiencing a higher-than-average volume of calls," then THAT'S the average, and your "longer-than-usual wait times" are due to the fact that you've not staffed adequately, and you have chosen to disrespect my time.
