Can an Aussie please unpack this headline, I'm dying to know what a "pokies whistleblower" is.

No way I'm googling that on a work computer.

Installing a bunch of lil raised garden beds and just sprinkling them with a bunch of packs of wild flowers last year was the best thing I ever did... wish I had started years ago! New flowers kept popping up into November (!!!) and the bees and humming birds loved it! Expanding on this this year for sure. 🐝🐦😎🐝🦜

Real comedy gold right there. Could sell that routine to Dave Chappelle

OH don't you worry your wee little head, lad. Dontchaknow at the top o' the mornin' there'll be a rainbow with a pot o' gold at the end to lift yer spirits? Anyways BRB going to feed my cat Pangur Ban

That’s some comedy gold right there 😂😂😂. Man’s a real comedian 🤣

If that were true you’d be drunk enough to laugh

Agreed, grass just really doesn't look appealing. I want wild flowers and bees!

Where I live, my yard gets 10x more precipitation than I could possibly ever use, but I still want to do this. (with local stuff of course) I don't care if I can easily water a lawn - lawns are fucking stupid regardless.

A "nice lush green lawn" is the absolute epitome of 1950s-stick-up-the-ass-absurd.

It's a rare disease, but now that it is being reported in the news I wouldn't be surprised if we all of a sudden start seeing a spike in cases.

And he would have gotten away for it to! If it weren’t for those pesky kids

An excellent question. Sometimes people get wildly incongruous accents from this and I always wonder. Tbf, it's often easier to perceive differences than produce them yourself, so maybe the cancer unlocked the real thing.

Aren't you ashamed of yourself? https://youtu.be/x1-axqBZdNk

Obviously it's because they have the most prestigious Sheep Crime bureau

Sure it’s not the best example. My point is that most Irish people don’t follow football, so it’s strange to pick that as a cultural reference.

I think I just got a bit tilted because there’s a lot of dumb irish stereotyping in the thread which, as an actual Irish person, gets very tiring.

Lol that's almost word for word what I was gonna say

And if this had worked we'd all be calling the guy a genius.

I think that the difference is Americans for the most part don't give a shit about Brazil sports and people in Ireland do legitimately like Liverpool due to the large population of Irish people that live there. If there were a ton of Americans in Brazil, I'm sure that Brazilian sports would be more popular in the US.

Probably just trying to reach em about their extended car warranty.

Begrudging upvote.

My mind boggles at how long this letter took to be delivered. Like, 2016-2023 is longer than most human lives.

Doesn't matter if they are allowed to wonder or not. The amount of food they need will still need to be grown. Farming is take up a large chunk of water and if you know about basic food chain efficiency the higher up you are in good chain more energy and indirectly water is being consumed per unit of nutrition.

how dare I

I understand. But it’s just a weird thing to say. Imagine the article was about someone waking up with an American accent and someone said “just give them a bottle of bud light and put on a Brazil game and they’ll be cured”. Just because the US support Brazil the most in the World Cup (when the US aren’t in).
