Disgusted, as that's the stronger feeling of the two

What healthcare system?

I mean, NZ would be its own globe because it's a separate country.

But the Australia globe is potentially missing Tasmania.

so who are they pleasing?

Companies. Germany tends to only care about German companies, to the point where they'll save them with taxpayer money every time their shares drop .2%

I continue being disappointed by my home country

[–] FireWire400@lemmy.world 20 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Is it just not possible to hold these companies accountable for anything?

I could try being a mod, sounds fun

In addition to that, YouTube is hands down THE worst one for small children nowadays with all the algorithm harvesting soft-porn videos allowed on YT Kids.

Super cool location, felt pretty unreal actually being there... shame you can't go inside any more

Edit: Seems like they made a new website for it! I hope they can turn it around somehow

Before you say something, I am aware now that cashew nuts aren't that good for them (too fatty) and that you probably shouldn't feed them at all.

I went to the Lagoon that morning specifically to feed a cocky and I did... as well as about a dozen ducks. I'm sorry, I won't do it again.

 

Sat there for 20+ minutes just taking it all in

 

Saw some people posting random pictures lately, figured I might as well join in. This was near Wollundry Lagoon in Wagga

 

First of all, sorry if this really isn't the right spot for this but I figured that maybe some Aussies in here recognise it.

I've had this stuffed frilled-neck lizard since roughly 2006 when a family member brought it back from Australia for me, I know for sure that my brother had a stuffed dinosaur with a similar design on it. According to the tag it was hand made in Australia by "Kurrajong Aboriginal Products". A quick search brought me to a company with the same name that sells child education books and hand made dolls, so the connection is kinda there but I can't be sure; they don't sell stuffed animals (anymore). I'd really like to know if anyone has seen these or even has one.

Here's some pictures I took of it.

When I was in Australia myself a while ago I searched for similar things but couldn't find anything. Even the museum shops I went to only seemed to sell generic Chinese-made stuff, which really is a shame but anyway...

 

I just came back from a 6 week trip to Australia; spending time with my relatives (some of whom I've never met before or haven't seen in 20 years) and I had a really really really great time. Everyone was so welcoming and just appreciative; I was really overwhelmed by how amazing the whole experience was.

On my flight back I was crying the whole time; I never felt like that before and just couldn't handle my emotions (much to the dismay of the people sitting next to me). Most of all I just didn't wanna return to my dysfunctional family in Germany. It's been my goal to move to Australia for some time now but after this experience I'm determined to move as soon as possible. It's gonna take a lot of figuring stuff out and it won't be easy but I'll make it work.

Just wanted to get that out there I guess.

Edit: if someone happens to have a few tips and pointers for me regarding my plans they would be greatly appreciated

 

Does anyone know how to order or configure the P14s G5 AMD with a OLED display on the German Lenovo site?

The OLED display seems to be NA exclusive apart from a few overpriced offers from third party sites...

Some time ago, I pulled this sticker off our old fridge before we got rid of it and put it onto my PC's side panel (don't ask me why, I guess I thought it looked cool). I don't exactly know where it came from or who put it there, although I suspect it was put there by a Australian relative that was visiting us a long time ago (the Murrumbidgee is a river in NSW, Australia).

Does anyone know the artist or name of this if it even has one? There's no obvious signature that I can see.

Feel free to remove if this isn't allowed.

Edit: I've since found out that this comic strip was actually made by the relative who put it on our fridge. It depicts something that had happened to them; I won't go into it further cause they don't know that I've even posted this here but yeah
