I'm not a fan.

Have trouble finding motivation to get out of bed. Having early sun is a huge help in summer and there's not much I do in the evenings that would be improved by sun there

Time is like the ocean

You can only hold a little in your hand

In Australia we get a rebate on tax if we hold private cover. The rebate is generally larger if you hold better cover up to a certain level of income where you can clearly afford both.

Hospital + extras for myself and wife was about 3k last year.

For things like regular scripts I'm on some stupid expensive drugs but because of PBS instead of 20,000 per month I pay $35 ish per script until hitting a safety net threshold and it drops to $5 per script.

After turning 31 if you don't get private cover it costs more for each year you don't get it when you eventually do. It's to encourage people to get it if they can afford it. I'm not a fan but that's how it works at the moment

Dunno, is it really US foreign policy if it's not bipartisan

~1500 for a 2x1 unit purchased in 2015 at a stupid time for nearly 400k when the market was coming way down. Could have waited a year or two and been able to afford a house with a better deposit.

Thankfully getting close to having it paid off

Fair call I guess. I don't really care one way or another. But if you wanted to move the existing date rather than making a second it seems like a choice that might prove popular with people who don't want the date to move currently.

The rates have gone down and lots of people have moved to vaping as others have mentioned.

My take is that while it's prohibited in many areas the enforcement is shocking.

I attend a hospital outpatient clinic at least 6 visits per year (usually more for scans and stuff). It's prohibited on the hospital campus and has been for ages. Signs everywhere.

Don't think I've ever been in the last 10 years and not seen someone smoking.

Similar enforcement in city malls and other areas where it's prohibited. People only care if it's inside

Been scrolling to make sure he was included somewhere. Cool projects and so many Easter eggs in the videos. One of the best maker channels for sure
