life is too fleeting to drink that shit.

you don’t need to boycott anything if you have some god damn self respect.

noice. its not a lot of coin, but credit where its due.

meh… consume less.

by all means have a family if that is what you want, and the society should generously support you in that endeavor…

The proposed News Bargaining Incentive, as currently drafted, does not address the underlying issues in the News Media Bargaining Code on which it is based. Commercially focused eligibility requirements create barriers to participation for small publishers and volunteer-based community media, further entrenching the status quo in a media landscape that is already one of the most concentrated in the world. Funding is needed not only to prop up existing publishers, but to regenerate a battered news industry and better serve Australian communities with relevant and reliable news services.

Genetic data indicate that Greenland sharks diverged from ancestral sleeper sharks in the Canadian Arctic approximately 1–2.34 million years ago

you are off by a bit?!?

early sharks existed back then, not greenland sharks.
