The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

A Melbournite stopping and thinking before running off to protest something they have a shallow understanding of? Maybe there's hope for you yet.
I know bro, I'm a rare breed lol. As expected the rally delivered absolutely nothing.

I also remember checking out "Occupy Melbourne" back when it first gathered steam. But got turned off straight away as it was just a bunch of SJW's pedalling their own insecurities.
 
Although I am of the belief that sacking Scomo is kind of pointless because they will just put another self serving fucknut in his place.
Exactly. And from what I've seen most people are just upset that he was away on holidays when the bushfires were raging. I agree that it was a poor move on his behalf, but what the fuck was he gonna do? Fight the fires himself? Literally the only thing he could do would be to go around & shake a few hands (which is what he did when he returned & people still told him to fuck off).
 
The Occupy movement sounded like an odorous rapefest to me. I went on some feminist marches 6-7 years ago, in hindsight they were so pointless. Not to say all causes are pointless, but a good chunk of the protests attached to them are.
 
The good thing about those feminist rallies is that a few of those extreme birds parade around topless.
 
Nothing wrong with a bit of B.O. If anything the sweat would make their tits glisten a little bit in the sun.

Silver linings, brother. Silver linings.

What gets me about the holidays was how many other people in positions of authority took leave as well, it was like Scomo was the first and the other monkeys just followed. Whether he could have done anything more than offered thoughts and prayers was beside the point for me. What was a bigger issue was that he was the one who instigated the arse kicking for Kristina Nixon during the Black Saturday fires and she only went to dinner for a few hours, he fucked off out of the country when it was his turn.

Obviously he'd be fucking useless on the fire front, he wouldn't burn for long enough, but it was funny to see so many Labor/Greens supporters bitching he wasn't there, then when he came back they bitched he was there. It's nearly as funny as all the Labor supporters struggling with the fact that Abbott keeps getting press coverage for fighting the fires, they want to hate the guy but saying bad things makes them look bad for picking on an RFS volunteer.

100% mate. People are always crapping on about him being out of the country during the worst ecological disaster in the entire history of the country, yet they'll still use it just to further their contrarian agenda. The lack of nuance/self-awareness is fucking staggering.

It happened during Ash Wednesday, then it went stupid during Black Saturday, now with these latest fires it seems like some fuckwits can't help but make it political. The biggest problem these days though is the media that feeds the shit and keeps it going longer than most news consumers attention spans.
 
I've been installing software on my Linux laptop for the past 6 hours. Cool shit. But I think I'm finally nailing it.
 
I don't care to bother with feminists. If you're just gonna scream at me for doing absolutely nothing wrong, you might as well be my mother or something.

You've been using Linux for 6 hours, and you think you've nailed it... that's cute. Let's see what you think a month or two from now, when you've had time to remember the rest of the programs you need, which you're used to installing in < 5 minutes on Windows, while on Linux they require 20+ hours of hacking your way through bizarre chains of program dependencies, until you ultimately conclude "hm, maybe I can get by without half the programs I normally use." ;)
