Amazing when you consider how self-lubricating the average Meblo-ite is.

There's a bunch of them been hanging out for this Ashes and then hopefully it's on to the donkey circuit (whatever xPL their managers can hook). Plenty of talent waiting.

FFS this is why I can’t even

Dude - the state bar associations (also called law societies). Got it made.

All the people I knew in high school who joined (or tried to join) the police force were utter fucking munters. It's a shit job full of shit people, with a very well organised protection racket vertically integrated into state government and media. Really hard practical politics problem.

For what purpose - bin collection and preventing housing from being built?

Local government costs $50 billion, and that sounds a bit expensive as a therapy session for people who "like to be heard"

The data centre caper looking more and more like the coolest way to launder money going!

Mate of mine at the local council call centre says 90% of call about neighbour’s dogs and cars parked in the street “in front of my house”. I agree with fucking off local gov (planing and service provision) but the 5% of people who are plain nuts will be fun.
