I appreciate the juxtaposition with the sign. Great image.

 

19 Tasmanians have received indefinite bans from entering any of the state's public native forestry estate — an area covering 812,000 hectares.
It follows protests against native logging near Takayna/Tarkine, but most of the protesters live locally, and say the bans will impact their lives.

I've never seen any company choose lower profit as part of reform .... only pathways to exponential increase in profit is ever considered.

Ren is a lyrical genius and I love his rapping style. Great post.

In Australia we just put the price up exponentially each year so that eventually noone will be able to afford them except the very richest in the country. I stopped smoking on 1/1/2020 when it was already over $1 per cigarette. It's considerably more expensive now ... I think about $30 for a pack of 20s. That's why my friend never has any dosh and is always borrowing money from ppl.

It would appear her empathy for others was clearly lacking. Why should anyone treat her better than her very own example?

The aggressive sales tactics of the charity representatives at those little pop-ups at the supermarket and plazas are a bit shady as well, IMO. I usually manage to avoid them but the few times I have been stopped, it's never a pleasant/easy experience to get away. They are trained to sell this way, and I understand they need the donations, but it never leaves me with a feeling of respect for the charity they represent.

I cant afford to make monthly donations but sometimes I would like the option to drop a cash donation in a tin, or to make a one-off merch purchase. Unfortunately neither of these things are ever an option these days, so instead we get the hard sell and are left with a bad taste in the mouth.

😮I looked this up! It was Fifth ave, but your point still stands. That's so overt!
But I believe his cultists think they are the seven Trumpets in Revelation.

Hi there fellow Aussies. You are either gonna hate me, or love me.

When I first opened the canvas I don't believe your Australian flag was there. I went on to make a Fortnite F, then expanded to the whole logo, and finally a lovely heart. Yes, I know that's all very cringe but I don't care. When I woke the next day I was surprised to discover that my art had still not been attacked, so I began a Project Zomboid Logo. Eventually I noticed the formation of your flag but I already had received a notice that the canvas would be closing in 24 hours.

I'm sorry, I think your flag was ambitious, but I don't see it getting completed. I really wanted us to have some representation, and I'm also jealous of New Zealand as their flag is schmick. My son and I decided to create some token Australian Flags near my other artwork (as it started to get attacked and I needed to keep an eye on it.) If you want to help with protection, or even expansion, you can find those (significantly smaller) flags at 115, 466 on the canvas. You can also talk to me thru Place Australia on Discord in the #post-place channel.

Perhaps we can draw something else before close?
