This is terrible and also addictive and I got no better at it as it went on

The 49ers treated the occasion with more respect. As a result they came in better prepared, dominated the game and won over the local market in the process. In a quest to be the smartest men in the room, McVay and the Rams have come out looking silly.

This is actually insane 🤯
@lolojones literally had a broken back, lost control of her bladder — and was denied medical treatment!
We’ve all heard of corruption within USOPC. This appears to be another sordid case. Disgusting.
Eager to hear some type of response from @USOPC_CEO or anyone within the organization.

I’m super excited to announce that I’ve reacquired Press Start from SCA and it will now operate independently as Australia’s largest gaming and tech community.
I’ve given so much to Press Start over the last 13 years and I didn’t think I’d ever have the opportunity to own it again. I’m so thankful to SCA for believing in the brand over the last decade, recognising its importance in the local landscape and agreeing that it is best placed in my care moving forward.
I’m really motivated to navigate this next chapter and have loads of ideas for what Press Start can become, alongside Always-On and my personal channels to combine and reach as many Aussie gamers and tech-heads as possible. Being independent allows for the agility required to do that.
Thanks to anyone who has ever consumed Press Start to this point, and the core team for all the work that goes into delivering curated gaming news, bargains, reviews and more. Thanks also to all of the partners that we work with who continue to support Press Start - this is now more important than ever.
Trying to explain to a Japanese friend why one of Britain’s most influential politicians is currently locked in a serious election campaign with an intergalactic dustbin has been disgustingly entertaining.
If Kobie could read the signs, she'd see:
- A Cantonese butcher
- A Taiwanese restaurant
- A Tianjin restaurant
- A Nepali restaurant (with Nepalese making 15.8% of the suburb's population)
- Dishes from Jiangsu, Teochew and Beijing - three separate cultural/language groups in Mainland China
- A shipping business whose model depends on customers proudly sending Australian-made gifts (of high quality milk formula, Merino bedding, and high-quality vitamins) to loved ones across Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia and the US
- A yoga studio run by a trilingual Hong Konger, with trainers from Beijing, New Zealand, Sydney
- A supermarket with traditional characters on one side (海龍) and simplified on the other (海龙) showing the Cantonese-speaking Hong Kong migration wave being replaced by a Mainland Chinese wave
And if she panned her camera over the road, we'd be seeing Singaporean, Malaysian and Vietnamese restaurants too.
To be describing this as a "monoculture" is a thinly veiled dog-whistle to: "all Asians are the same".
If Kobie cared to look, she'd be describing this as a melting pot - diversity in practice, coming together as a shared community - not a monoculture.
Anyone with an atlas or a recipe book could tell you that's not a monoculture.
It's Dal Bhat Tarkari next door to Pho, next door to Boba, next door to Nasi Lemak, opposite Nanjing Duck, next door to Yum Cha.
If Kobie cared to look, she also wouldn't be using this video to try to tell a story of "suburbs full of people who have refused to assimilate for decades".
The changing signs (already visible in the video) show it's just the latest chapter in an ever-changing story of a suburb where SEVERAL generations of new Australians - from MANY different cultures - have got a start: first Italian and Greek Australians, then Hong Kong born Australians, then Mainland Chinese Australians, and now increasingly Nepalese Australians.
To those who don't see it yet, ask:
- Where did the Greeks, Italians, and Cantonese Hong Kong shop owners who used to be there go?
- Where did their families go?
- What happens to the people behind the windows when the shop signs fade and change?
Those Australians deserve better than dog-whistling and divisiveness.
Just a shockingly managed penalty shootout. Mat Ryan signposted which way he was going on every penalty. Irresponsible to let a teenager take one in that situation as well.
So faking being knocked unconscious should be a yellow card shouldn’t it? And if he really was knocked unconscious he should be removed from the game?
What does it all mean??!! What are we doing here?!?!
Americans discovering that the beauty of football is you get to complain for decades about what might have been if not for that one borderline referee call
