It’s one of the many human rights we don’t care about in Australia. It’s targeted harassment and abuse of power.

I can’t believe how much outrage there has been over this. It seems to be making rounds on the entirety of lemmy every couple days

Hope all goes well, stay safe and look after yourself!

18% rent increase for the piece of shit I live in. Not unexpected, but still sucks. I wouldn’t wish anyone live here let alone pay for the privilege. Going to start demanding the agent to get awnings installed as it’s been about eight months since last asking and nothing has happened. Figured that the worst they can do is evict me as they can’t increase the rent again.

You’re not even a regular poster here.

I didn’t think this community was this quick to gatekeep. I’ve seen them comment here before, but gatekeeping someone’s opinion based on how much they post here is absurd.

but when a new poster pops by with a vague pro-palestine message I assume you’re not interested in this community and simply looking to spread your message.

And what would that message be? Genocide bad? I’m not a new poster here and if I comment a pro-palestine message would you assume the same? It’s disheartening to see this thread have so many downvotes and this argument, almost so much as the MSO’s statement the other day.

How do I find this out? I couldn’t find it anywhere, but it might be because I’m using the cracked client…

I settled on a night light being the only source of light in my bathroom and have got used to very dimly lit night showers/bathroom trips. Works really well as it doesn’t hurt my eyes whenever I walk into the bathroom overnight and I also don’t stub my toes as often as I wound in pure darkness. Might be worth looking into getting one as it can be easy to misplace a torch.

it’s wired to the same circuit as the light

I’ve got one of those things as well in my bathroom. I don’t trust it at all and find it annoying not being able to turn one or the other on so I just never use it. Why do people even wire it like that?

Hope your finger gets better quickly, always sucks when you get a cut there

TIL: The Victorian Housing Register has a preferred location area “Undefined” which lists “Blackwood, Bulla, Derrimut, Docklands”.

Maybe not the best idea to pick it for your application.

How do you even get diagnosed with DSPD in this country? I always get Drs and psychiatrists telling me to go to sleep earlier and be very dismissive when I ask for sleep tests done. Normal sleeping pills don’t work at all for me, the best tools I have are agomelatine, clonidine, and cannabis (all taken together if I need to force a sleep bc of society).

Anyways, I’m not grateful for dismissive doctors who think I am trying to get pills off of them to abuse. Also fuck my sleeping disorder!

I keep close tabs on the air quality for health reasons, so I’ve been watching it slowly get worse over the past couple days. I think there are a few planned burns going on and the wind is taking the smoke over, but it could really be anything. Hopefully it clears up

I appreciate all the wonderful people who spend time contributing to OpenStreetMap. Especially grateful for those who leave notes with photos that allow more technical users to improve the map. The quality of OSM is at times better than Google Maps which makes me really happy to see.

The agency for which I submitted a FOI Request under Section 39 has not given me a response within 30 days, so that probably means I’ll have to go to VCAT—which is something I really don’t want to do.

Air quality is abysmal in the Western Suburbs right now

Yeh it is. I just added that youtube video as the game reminded me of that classic

It’s too cold to do anything productive so I’ve resorted to playing this fantastic MMO: https://onemillioncheckboxes.com/
