This comment thread could also apply to global warming. Glad to see we are learning from our mistakes.

Australia has this too and we don't have as good public transport as you. You can't even drop off nearby. Basically, everyone is on buses to car parks away (schools and other places are used) or train stations. It's a pain in the butt, but a way of life if you want to watch a game. Tickets at these stadiums include free public transport for the afternoon, so it's included in the price.

I'd feel happy with those on my head too

Balance bikes are amazing. My kid rode hers daily to day care and back (half a mile or more). At 3 got a pedal bike with no training wheels. Made some progress day one, next day was literally riding. Has been riding ever since. Never had training wheels.

Balance bikes work on the premise that the hardest part of learning to ride isn't the pedals. It's learning how to balance

Americans like ice in all their drinks. Straws are way better when there's ice. For the rest of the world it's no problem to drink from a cup.

Dried plums are more commonly known as prunes. So that part at least wouldn't be too expensive.

But it also wouldn't have to be perfect. I'm sure you don't have 30 shades of napkins to pick from for a rave and if some wall decoration falls down mid rave it wouldn't be a big deal

Big pharma hate it.

We've been so sick and tested negative on rats too. But really sick. And for about 2 weeks. Mainly splitting headaches that painkillers can't touch, coughing, chest congestion, fatigue, general shit feeling, no fever. It just keeps going though, get better for a day, then bedridden the next day.

My partner just got a chest xray today to check for pneumonia as their breath was rattling.

Thought it couldn't be flu as no aching muscles or joints, no fever etc.

Just a super strong cold if that's what it is? Either way, we all want to be healthy again

That's a really interesting point. Maybe because the North Korean govt is seen as persecuting it's citizens. Therefore it's citizens are seen as the victims (despite some citizens being the perpetrators).

Whereas Russian citizens are seen as the perpetrators (as invading soldiers) along with the leadership and surrounding countries are seen as the victims.

Genuine question. GPs complain about the complexity of cases increasing and therefore higher Medicare rates should apply. While I completely agree with this (my GP 1000% needs to be paid more), shouldn't that mean that they like low complexity visits like this? Bring someone in, sign med cert, you are on your way. They have probably spent 5-10mins of a 15min appointment and can use that time to catch up.
