I went through that about a month ago. I ordered, and then they said that the yearly check-up was due. The next available appt was over a month away.

Longest arse wait ever after ordering after the check up. 3 days felt like 3 weeks.

Waiting for *the* delivery?

"Hey, let's completely ignore so many people asking us to do the big things, the things that will actually make life better for everyone. That'll win us the next election."

Incrementalism can get in the bloody sea. It's a tool to ratchet the government further right.

That person is so going to be you.

That's going to be a lot of arse.

Imagine being a fully grown up media organisation, yet here you are trying to defend the WORST prime minister this country has ever seen.

Slow clap. Very, very slow clap.

Millions of people losing healthcare and still not receiving SNAP benefits is *not* a win, my guy.

Check your privilege.

THIS. So much this. Everyone I know my own age is conservative and generally complete drongos when it comes to politics. I really feel like the odd one out. I did grow up at the tail end of gen X, so I wonder if that has anything to do with it.

Oh, I know. I always imagined myself living somewhere a bit more exotic than 'giant hot NZ'.

Aus is the smarter move, though.

I'm noticing so many dipshits are trying to copy Mamdanis style of video presentation etc.

So glad I got to tell this dickhead to piss off when he came to my door a few years back.

Jesus. You definitely escaped that shit.

Self introspection for the win.

Damn, man. Glad you got out of there.

I've always been "left-ish", but as I get older I seem to go further left as time goes on.

It's funny how shitty economic outlooks and reality can do that.
