I live 2 streets away and have never been. What’s so good about it?
Bloody AusPost left my parcel up a fucking tree.

Tibetans told VICE World News that the meaning of this common expression used to tease and teach children is completely lost in cultural interpretation and its English translation. The correct phrase in Tibetan for this joke is “Che le sa”, which roughly translates to “Eat my tongue.” English is the Dalai Lama’s second language and Indian news outlets have previously reported that the leader speaks in broken English at public events.

In a Youtube video, Jigme Ugen, a second-generation Tibetan refugee living in the U.S., explains how this display of affection was born out of a game played between the Tibetan elderly and children. Kids who go up to their grandfather, for instance, are asked to kiss their grandfather’s forehead, touch their noses and kiss them.
“Then [the grandfather] says that I’ve given you everything so the only thing left is for you to eat my tongue,” Ugen said. “The child probably never gets the candy or money but gets a beautiful lesson about life, love and family.”
tl;dr: A harmless translation issue.
A public company should totally be allowed to ban someone for hate.
Why wait until they commit a heinous act to try to stop the spread of them?
Why the fuck apologise for that? Did some bigoted fucksticks get upset? Good.
Sounds like a good move.
Anyone who may be harmful to others has an exception, so there’s no risk cops won’t say try to stop a kid with a knife trying to murder others.
And any of the children are still going to get their details taken down, it’s not like they’ll escape this ever catching up with them just because they don’t get locked up on the day.
This way a lot of it can ideally be chased up by more appropriate social workers, and with proper training compared to cops on the street.
Laptop mobo sounds like overkill for retro gaming compared to a pi clone or some such.
Karaage is basically Popcorn Chicken.
“Biden enables genocide, but to me he is ok”
Really? What’s a person gotta do to not be ok in your books if you look past genocide?
They did or Erdogan did?
Because this reeks of useless nationalism.
I am a meat popsicle lately.
Doesn’t matter unless you stop the ‘deals’ for high paying cushy jobs after leaving the public sector once you’ve destroyed whatever a company wants gone.
Does your legal system work on imprisonment or nothing at all? Sounds very extreme.
Here it’s a small fine, but it’s also a day off and takes like 20 mins to go do plus you can get a delicious sausage. So it’s a no brainer that people go vote.
Greece is a pretty failed state from what I’ve seen, wouldn’t read too much into what they don’t do.
As for why compulsory voting, it helps moderate extremism and represents most of society as a whole.
If the Taliban take over Australia I’ve got bigger issues to worry about than my domain name.
After 33 years it’s probably time to admit you don’t control those people any more.
Behaviourism (reward/punish to influence behaviour) was revolutionary 100 years ago, it’s pretty outdated by today’s educational paedagogy.
You might get a few short term “wins”, but all you’re doing long term is teaching them to focus on the reward. They’re not learning an intrinsic value to the actions, and as such will be less likely to follow through once you’re not in the picture to punish/reward (e.g. at school, as teenagers doing teenager things, etc)
