This is a shit outcome. It's not surprising, but it's shit. To the Indigenous Australians amongst us: I'm sorry. I hope one day Australia will show you the respect and care you deserve.
Ultimately, I'm angry. Angry at this country, really. We need to be better than this.
Agreed. First Nations peoples should get the vote and the right to have elected representatives in all levels government. I just don't understand why people would vote no to that.
seriously, I thought I would be flamed for that post
If I had 400 million I would have spent it on educating First Nations people on how to use the power they have, to vote and stand for elected government. Government has the power to make policy and direct spending.
Yeah I really just do not understand why it's a bad thing that our First Nations peoples can have more say when it comes to stuff related to them. Like I heard one wild thing was if the voice was majority yes, then First Nations peoples would kick every person out of their house.
First, what an absolutely wild assumption. Secondly, I mean that's what white colonisers did...
Iโm really angry and sad. Iโm angry and sad like I was when Australia voted in Morrisonโs shit circus in 2019 over Bill Shortenโs genuine reform alternative. Fear, ignorance, and a really nasty bubbling streak of racism.
We ARE better than this. Letโs be clear, Australia has voted against Murdoch media in the past, but labor set this up to fail hard. Albo should resign. This will be spun as a win for the libs, but a huge portion of Aussies didnโt understand what they were voting for. I agree, those who didnโt had a responsibility to educate themselves, but labor had a responsibility to show people why this was a vote for unity.
I'm just, I'm so disappointed. I mean, it feels weird to vote for the idea to give people more rights when they're the ones who lived here first. It's like taking a vote on if you should allow your housemate to be on the lease.
It's just really disappointing. Labor didn't expect that the No vote would come out swinging and because of that there was A LOT of misinformation. Honestly, if you have fucking NAZI'S on your side... you should really re-evaluate your opinions.
After this result (I voted yes) I hope what comes next is more funding for better indigenous health outcomes and remote community support through legislation.
Not really. Mr P on the dole and I'm a bit skint so I suspect that the actual day (being a school and work day) will involve more of the usual lol. But there will be cake (bought a reliable packet mix for them to make up while I'm at work).
So not a fan of this crap. Certain politicians don't want to take responsibility for their bigoted views, so they ask citizens to decide and then stir up smear campaigns and misinformation. And so many people buy it.
Gay marriage was banned in 2004 by John Howard's government and it only got made legal again in 2017 because the hatemongering/sabotage didn't work and the numbers passed. (There are legal differences but the underlying plan was the same.)
I woke up a little late after being exhausted last night. I decided to go ahead and cook my big breakfast or in this case lunch.
Iโve got toasted bread, eggs under the bacon, some charred fried tomatoes, onion and mushrooms with some hash brown and a couple of sausages and also a little bit of Dino pasta.
Sorry about messiness of the plate and playing but here it is.

Of course they support the idea and everything about recognition and how thereโs so many ways to word it but of course theyโre opposed to the no vote for the same amount of reasons and words that all mean the same thing.

It's a variation based very loosely on a Reuben sandwich. I find the sauerkraut works really well with those types of ingredients, and my current batch is made with some fennel which adds some extra depth of flavour too.
I was going to say post it on r/sandwiches but then remembered where I was lol. BottomRacer is right, you should name it. Its too fucking glorious to be anonymous.
Had to very awkwardly and very firmly tell a campaigner at my local to "leave me alone", they actually followed me through the gate attempting to shove pamphlets and crap at me.
I'm pretty sure they aren't supposed to do that. They're supposed to stay in designated areas and only offer pamphlets. They aren't supposed to coerce voters.
We had a guy camping at the end of the line handing out pamphlets to people joining the queue. Pretty sure he wasn't supposed to be there, either.
I can't do that, it's on the list after the uni work. So every time my brain goes "I could start on that tidying..." I have to reply with "just as soon as I tick off the assignments".
Almost certainly yes. I plan to do this, as I've already voted but don't want to miss out on the fun part. And you can have multiple democracy sausages, but can't vote multiple times.
Interesting.. also I don't think I've ever voted at a place which does sausages. I've been voting at the wrong place. Are democracy sausages paid or free?
What I observed was Lidia (as much as I disagree with what she says) voice her opinion in a passionate way on every program that I turned on all I heard from Our Leader was "it's up to the Australian people. I'm sure they will do the right thing". Where's the passion? Where's the leadership? I'm very disappointed.
I admit I saw a lot of her on tv, much more than I would have liked to be honest.
I think Albo could have pushed it a little harder to be honest. I saw various things on the media from other people trying to get the point across but it was varied amoungst a number of people.
I really hope this doesnโt cause a set back for future generations to come.
I'm not even sure who that lidia person is. I read the proposed amendment and voted my conscience. That is all. I did not watch tv or listen to radio or read local newspapers or go on social media. I don't need people to tell me what to think.
Well, it's not really his job. He promised to bring the question to the voters, and he did that. That should have been all he needed to do. This isn't really meant to be his cause.
It also should have been brought years ago by either Abbott or Morrison. The Statement From the Heart was made in 2017.
This is why I was surprised when Mr Dutton spoke about a referendum rematch. His party sat on this topic for years.
I'd be keen to hear what comes of that purple flowered banksia that was in the news. I reckon it's just a local reaction to changed soil conditions but if it's genetic and heritable that would be pretty cool.
So fatigued and nauseous today. I almost booked a night up in Moama but I feel gross, so it looks like I'm just staying here fighting the urge to go back to bed.
here's a positive, nothing has been lost, no rights have been lost, no money has been lost, no programs have been dismantled
this was just one thing and we can keep working in other ways
sadly, what may have happened is an increase in social division here, thanks to murdoch and russia . We must not let them write the narrative, we will not become Us vs Them. We are all Aussies.
Made a chicken stock and then soup. It's simmering away on the stove and I'm about to add "noodles" (really it's broken spaghetti, the only time I break spaghetti! Mum used to do it and I got used to it). Also having lamb cutlets because local butcher had them for reasonable price so I thought why not. Elder doesn't like lamb but will be soothed with home-made chocolate brownie.
Broken spaghetti has no place in my usual spaghetti dishes. Mum used to always break it. I don't know why and I don't think she did either. Probably so dad could shovel it down faster, idk. In my chicken soup it's a bit too long though.
Won the food cupboard bread trifecta this morning - English muffins, crumpets and fruit loaf! They had a ton of muffins especially today for some reason. It was odd, there was no normal bread, normally there is lots of plain bread and the others are an occasional treat. Good timing too, I'm almost out of muffins and I do like them with my eggs for breakfast.
Did an Aldi run (voted a couple of days back) and the car park was heaving. And Audi drivers were being Audi drivers.
Still, snacks and prosecco have been procured for either results watching or drowning my sorrows, depending on how soon it's called.
Now back to the theory units before the First Aid class Tuesday.
As awful as it sounds, I'm either going to be lost in escapist TV or asleep when the count starts - I can't bear to watch in real time the country return the result I'm 90% confident of
My spooky playlist is behind and I am stupid tired today. I need to get a reign on this fatigue that seems to have reared up this year. On a random note, Iโm impressed with the silicone moulds I purchased.
Love a 30% off booze sale on ubereats. I was just ordering some Thai for dinner and you can tack on an extra order without the service fee.. saw Liquorland on there and with the 30% off promotion I'm getting a 10 pack of Jim Beam Black 6.9% (nice) cans delivered for $10 less than if I drove to Dan Murphy's. I'm not even finished my last 10 pack, but I'll take a bargain when I see it.
I always get worried that my food will just get even colder and worse quality if they need another stop along the way. I'd only do it if they were next to each other or something ๐ฌ
I've only done it a couple of times but tonight the 2 deliveries were delivered by separate people rather than the same one along the way. I got the booze delivery about 8 minutes before the food one, so I took it up stairs then pretty much went back down right away to collect the food.
Need a Covid shot but canโt go to a pharmacy as I need to lie down for a while after due to reactions. My gp only does them on specific days twice a month, during the day (we both work and need my OH to accompany me). It shouldnโt be this hard โฆ the vaccine centres were great, I let them know in advance. sigh.
I think today is one of those days that needs a To Do List.
Walk the dog โ๏ธ
Walk myself to the voting place โ๏ธ
Cut up leftover lamb for the freezer โ๏ธ
Gardening assignments โ๏ธ (sort of. I did one, putting the second off till later)
Plant the next lot of seeds
Rearange area the new fridge is going in so it will fit, or at least frown at the area thoughtfully whilst ineffectually moving odds and ends around
Somewhere in there I'll need to work out what to eat today, and eat it. Feeling a bit uninspired on that front so far.
Edit: eating is going well so far. English muffin with fried eggs and garlic mushrooms. I'm thinking probably a burger for dinner. Still undecided on lunch, but a lamb sandwich is probably a good option.
Nothing quite says this has been a relationship of circumstance quite like an incoming departure, annoying habits blocked out become maddeningly unbearable once again.
Someone's habit of clearing their throat every 5-10 minutes might just send me postal before my time is up.
So chill voting down here on the bellarine compared to melbs.
Also added a bunch of shit to the chilli patch hoping for a better crop this year. Bit of dynamic poo, bit of super phosphate c'mon little chillos you got this.
I was helping my daughter with a playlist for a friend's birthday party. I suggested Bob Marley. Got told partygoer's wouldn't know who Bob Marley is. WHO DOES NOT KNOW BOB MARLEY? What are parents teaching these kids? I'm disappointed. Also kid knows we're pretty cool. ๐
Dad is heading in to visit Mum at the hospital tomorrow (she broke her ankle, has to stay a while) so I might make them both some coffee and take it to them in my keep-hot cup. I think they'll like my coffee, I make it double shot. I hate having relatively early nights on a Saturday, I feel like a loser.. but I'm tired so (Mario style) heeere we go! zzz
Tonight, it's more Japanese - leftover miso soup, steamed broccoli with goma-ae and I made an attempt at tamagoyaki for the first time. It looks like a giant yellow turd but... The inside is perfectly textured and it tastes not bad at all if I say so myself! I still think it's not exactly easy to do, you have to get everything in place and work quickly between dabbing with oil, pouring, lifting and rolling, but it doesn't feel as impossible as it did...
Aussie Enviro, Food and Frugal are looking a bit slow.
The quicker Glaze time was nice but it still threw up the same insufficient protection error, so I cranked the settings up to maximum and ran it again to see what that time is like. lol. I'm still waiting. I should have done it with single images as a control and written the times down...
Playing Minecraft is also probably slowing it down. But I'm bored waiting. Lightning just struck the hut again, 3 times in a row. It's lucky I added a lighting rod and didn't tame any more cats.
I'm feeling really uninspired. Maybe I'll make an underground mushroom garden or an underground grow room. Or try to find new mushrooms/plants. All I really want to do is explore, but then that means I have to go further for new stuff after updates. Unless I limit myself to one direction, or a four point axis that still leaves widening pie slices of unexplored territory/never loaded chunks the further out I go.
you know how some folk came up with those "memo" water bottles (flat, rectangular in standard paper sizes like a5 etc)?
I want someone to do the same with food containers, so that my meals sit nicely in my satchel, and I don't have to leave my beautiful Italian satchel at home in favour of girthier but far more student-y crumpler.
I never fully trust anything. They should make meal containers flat and standard size like that but also make sure it can fit inside a large ziploc bag (as an extra layer of insurance).
Instead everyone who voted no is branded as racist or dumb
I hated the idea and don't think it was useful for anything than opening dialogue.
But opening dialogue could have been done other ways.
I voted yes because it's another step.
First Nations people already have voting and political rights, they have equal treatment under law and equal access to government monies. I want them to use that to the fullest extent possible.
If it were me and I was in government I would ask what kind of lives they want and I would provide the opportunities for them to achieve that. For each person .
As were most people who voted no. Many just have a different vision of what is good for society. Being a democracy we have to accept that there will always be diversity in belief and opinion about society, even when we vehemently disagree.
You lost all credibility at "aborigines". You know this is 2023, right? Unfortunately most Australians are motivated by rhetoric fed to them by Murdoch.
My new fridge will be arriving Wednesday, so I ended up wasting half the day browsing fridge storage containers. I have also rearranged the space it's going into a couple of times and probably will a few more times before I settle on what I want to do. I have managed to get rid of some stuff, including some old spices and a ridiculous number of plastic bags. Why I had three separate plastic bag stashes in such a small area I do not know.
How long can soy yogurt sit out of the fridge and still be good?
I got a delivery at 12pm, was occupied and then forgot to go get it until 5 or 6โฆ the tubs were no longer very cold but they contain no animal products and are unopened.
Ugh, work office is so stuffy because they are playing with air quality control for night shifters, feels like I'm going to need to start gulping to get enough air in me.
Using version one of Glaze took all last night and into this afternoon only to throw a โnot strong enough protectionโ errorโฆ Iโve changed to the beta of version three and even after having gone up a level of intensity, itโs given me a much shorter estimate and I can see it counting down. Wow. Fingers crossed

One disadvantage of living near the top of a hill is that the walk home is always upwards. A lot of walking to write a few letters on a piece of paper, but I did get to see some nice gardens on the way - one place in particular had a stunning native garden.

It's a variation based very loosely on a Reuben sandwich. I find the sauerkraut works really well with those types of ingredients, and my current batch is made with some fennel which adds some extra depth of flavour too.

What I observed was Lidia (as much as I disagree with what she says) voice her opinion in a passionate way on every program that I turned on all I heard from Our Leader was "it's up to the Australian people.

Aussie Enviro, Food and Frugal are looking a bit slow.
The quicker Glaze time was nice but it still threw up the same insufficient protection error, so I cranked the settings up to maximum and ran it again to see what that time is like. lol. I'm still waiting. I should have done it with single images as a control and written the times down...
Playing Minecraft is also probably slowing it down. But I'm bored waiting. Lightning just struck the hut again, 3 times in a row. It's lucky I added a lighting rod and didn't tame any more cats.
I'm feeling really uninspired. Maybe I'll make an underground mushroom garden or an underground grow room. Or try to find new mushrooms/plants. All I really want to do is explore, but then that means I have to go further for new stuff after updates. Unless I limit myself to one direction, or a four point axis that still leaves widening pie slices of unexplored territory/never loaded chunks the further out I go.
