Go ahead. Squeeze me. Crack that vial and watch the fireworks erupt.

It’s slightly less ironic.
The seppos have the world famous Statue of Liberty and a plaque with the words, “Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe.”
Us Aussies still haven’t had the guts to dump the Union Jack from our own flag, let alone establish a bill of rights.
I live in the hope of seeing an ultra-left-wing group demand that the “Greens” change their name due to it being unacceptable “botanical chlorophyllic appropriation”.
A small but well-earned round of applause for correctly using “distasteful” rather than “tasteless”.
Now, to be clear, if our federal politicians continue down this path towards “identity verification” in order for people to use the web, then I, for one, suggest we overthrow our government, using physical violence if necessary.
Ah, cool. So, O2 replenishment is still required. Ta!
America invade Australia?
I thought they’d already done that…
… to just about every country.
I’m probably wrong, but AFAIK subs (navy war vessels) don’t actually need much “new” or “introduced” oxygen when submerged.
Us humans breathe out just as much oxygen as we breathe in - it’s just that it’s contaminated with carbon - CO2.
I don’t think that nuclear powered subs “generate” or “create” much oxygen for the purposes of life support.
Instead, subs use CO2 “scrubbers” that are replaced at regular intervals. (See space flight, especially Apollo 13…)
As stated, “diesel electric” subs ALSO need to either surface or “snorkel” when running on diesel to recharge their batteries.
There IS a seal in that photo.
To see it, ya gotta put on some goggles and stick your head in the water.
Port? Use of “port” to denote a bag, suitcase, or other “carry all”?
Only octogenarians use “port” in this manner…
Yanks want to hear Australian characters being voiced by Yanks.
An Aussie character, voiced by an Aussie, will be heard as British by a Yank.

“Road usage” has been taxed through the fuel excise paid at the bowser. This method is far from perfect, but it does allow reasonably anonymous travel.
In the future, the gov’t will have (at least) two ways of taxing the road usage of EVs.
One way will be fair, equitable, based on ‘mileage’, and anonymous.
The other way will permit the government to conduct ‘real time’ monitoring of every vehicle’s speed and position.
Our gov’t will choose this second option, and with bipartisan support.
The French wouldn’t say that. They’d say whatever is French for “Sign here!”
We’d then pay them a few more BILLION dollars, and the French would wait a week or two for another policy reversal.
At the rate we’re going, we’ll end up buying our subs from China…
Yeah. It’s like “Foster’s” supposedly being our national beer.
Who the f*** in Australia actually drinks Foster’s? (Rhetorical question…)
Sean Bean? Naaah.
The husband survived.
Sean Bean pretty much only takes roles where his character dies…!

Wearing clothing without washing it first is NOT advisable.
When a label reads, “wash before wearing,” it is a safety instruction.
If one wishes to wear new underpants that are “factory fresh” complete with formaldehyde, go for it. Just don’t act surprised when diagnosed with leukaemia…

Yeah! I hear you, especially regarding ‘onboarding’ often being a barrier. (Thankfully, Signal is bloody easy.)
My own attitude to family and friends is to say, “If ya wanna communicate with me, these are the acceptable options…”
If they don’t wish to use appropriate methods, that’s fine, but they can’t message me. Bugger 'em!
I encourage the use of Signal as a 'gateway drug"… I mean, “app,” and several people have subsequently added other private messaging apps as options.
I know I’m going to regret asking this, but why not Signal?
Yes, I know it has the disadvantage of not being decentralised, and it’s not anonymous as a phone number is required.
However, for the *vast majority* of people, it is the simplest and easiest solution to gaining E2EE comms.

Of course Kick is Australian. It is arguably INXS’ best album.
Wait… what are we talking about??? (Hopefully, it’s not a snuff film.)
