Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!

So… Asteroid that would have burned up in the atmosphere will miss us instead. I guess that’s good news?
BTW the book was by Peter Duffett-Smith if that helps.
When I was a kid my parents bought me a book called “practical astronomy with your calculator” that went over all the workings and formulae for calculating eclipses, moon phases, locations of the planets and heaps more. If you want to get into it I highly recommend this book or something similar.
Or more noticably all the southern hemisphere penguins
They said £650k, so roughly equal to $820k
Boardgames. Especially big, rules heavy games like Mage Knight and Twilight Imperium. I’ll happily spend a day playing a boardgame and my family just don’t get it at all.
No, no, no, it’s not Elon who’s out of touch. It’s the advertisers who are wrong! Just wait until all of Earth, apparently, hears of how these big mean advertisers killed the wondrous and righteous place named X. There will be outrage!.. so thinks Elon anyway. What a deluded moron.
Well… they used to at least :(
Yep, in 1975. We’ve been a bit of a puppet ever since.
They’re well aware. Famous Australians like Russell Crowe and Phar Lap would back up this claim.
Australians wish! New Zealand tends to get things right.
That and what we generally think of as “Vikings” were actually Danes, which is an insult to Swedes.
So… They’re following the Reddit business model? Let’s see how that works out.
The funny thing with tax is you don’t get choose how it’s spent. Tax money is public money that ought to be spent in the public interest, and NASA is a perfectly good example of this. Other good examples are infrastructure, parks, public healthcare and free education. Bad examples of tax expenditure are the ridiculous military complex, massive corporate subsidies and contractors doing poor work that the government should be directly controlling.
This is why we have “guilt by omission”
You moron everyone else has a voice: it’s called the house of representatives. This was a body specifically to advise on indigenous issues, primarily because they live in remote communities and are therefore under-represented. A lot of money goes their way each year from the federal budget for purposes decided by old white men who live in cities, so why not have an indigenous body advise on where that money gets spent? Seems a lot less wasteful to me.
Not to mention Ace Ventura’s too-long scene of showering, burning his clothes, using a plunger to make himself throw up etc. So you kissed someone you didn’t know was trans, grow up.
