Set up automatic bank transfers to chop your income into % parts: 5% play money, 20% savings, bills etc. do what works for you. Get rid of unnecessary subscriptions.

I think (or hope) most of us know that nuclear is no longer an option for us in Australia and that there are many more sustainable ways to generate energy here.

Welcome to the new era of enshittification where you'll eventually have to subscribe to access or make posts, and none of it will be searchable on any search engines.

I think it's more:

  • We rule you and take your money
  • We preach to you and take your money
  • We fight you and take your money/resources
  • We take your resources that you've grown

Or it could be the rulling class takes the biggest cut, clergy the next biggest etc. with workers at the bottom supporting the entire system but receiving the least.

And where do your stats come from? Do they account for the current cost of living crisis that's affecting the average person globally? Inflation? Where I am, living on a single income for a family means that you're likely either in the top 10% of wealth or you're struggling in poverty.

Additionally, your statement ignores that someone has gone to a university graduation ceremony and made derogatory remarks to the female students who've worked hard to get to where they are.

When people find themselves in stress, they will always vote conservative to ensure their own survival. Right now, many young people can't afford housing, they have to spend more time working than living. This is not surprising.

I want complete control of my technology after I buy it. I don't want my phone to assume things that I like based on my input. If something goes wrong, I want it to be my fault because I enabled the wrong setting. I also want physical buttons. I miss those so much.

I'd love to get prints from the artist to hang on my wall.

Not when that package is more than what the company makes.
