People usually don't notice the things you do for them until you stop doing those things

This footbridge from Timbrell Park, over Iron Cove Creek, to Dobroyd Parade in Five Dock/Haberfield has been out of action for quite some time. @CanadaBay https://t.co/NYm6CSfXub

*an _additional_ A$2.99 per month

So, @PrimeVideo is introducing ads to their movies and TV shows. Luckily 🙄 "no action is required" for this "upcoming change" to my "Prime Video experience". There's "no change to the current price" but for A$2.99/month, I can pay to get the ad-free service I currently enjoy. 😠

I'm taking part in The Push-Up Challenge this June, fundraising for Lifeline crisis support lines. To show your support, you can donate through the below page. Even a small amount helps. https://t.co/clI74Axd80

I know I'm "@Sandra_Sully with the Late News" on this one but my new favourite character is @stevie_budd on @SchittsCreek (just started watching), played by @emilyhampshire. She's so cruel yet so hilarious. Every time David goes to the motel's front desk to ask her for help... 🤣

I'm going to say, "No, then?"

Is anyone out there an active Wikipedia editor?

Goodbye @Optus Mobile. After 'grandfathering' my $25 mobile plan for a $49 plan (discounted to $34, but for how long?), I've decided you've had my business long enough. Moving to @woolworths Mobile @ $14.17 per month ($170 prepaid, 365 day expiry). Next, new broadband. #loyalty

What?! NCIS: Sydney?! Hmm... @NCISHawaiiCBS @NCISLA @ncisverse @NCISSydney @CBS @paramountplus

Although I can't ever imagine their mother or I ever saying something like this to any of our three sons, I don't think I have laughed so hard in months after reading this. 🤣

Also though, my sons aren't too good at keeping up with their chores. 🤷‍♂️

[✨Ms_Ashhole ✨ @MsAshBash420]

I don’t have a son but this is too funny not to share 😆

Tollways should have SLAs. Ugh. #crawling @westconnex @Linkt

@dhryland Life gets so busy, you know? 🤣😉

@Fact So, 27 pregnancies. 😮

[John Byrne 🇦🇺 @JohnTheTechGuy]

@Fact Hmm... no, she didn't. She had 16 _sets_ of twins, 7 _sets_ of triplets and 4 _sets_ of quadruplets. She had 32 twins, 21 triplets and 16 quadruplets. Sorry. 😬 #JustSaying

So @MayorDarcy, the food waste bin plan was great til you decided to change the red bin collection from weekly to fortnightly. Will our waste collection rates be reduced to compensate for this reduction in services? What about the smell from waste that can't go in the green bin?

[John Byrne 🇦🇺 @JohnTheTechGuy]

30% of 🇦🇺 rent. 20% invest in property, of which 71.4% own only one investment property, many of which are mortgaged. The ‘property mogul’ renters and the @Greens are putting on their dartboard are in far fewer numbers than is being touted. #norentcap https://t.co/ioxVP1Ppfs

[John Byrne 🇦🇺 @JohnTheTechGuy]

Don't punish landlords for good investment decisions they've made. If the gov't wants to help renters, help renters. YOU give them a subsidy. Don't take the money from landlords who are also impacted by inflation and interest rate rises, with expenses of their own. #norentcaps
