Gee Bill, your mum lets you have three new years?
Honestly I'm going to have to start asking them out aloud; "how do you live like this, and how can I help?"
Please don't just say "title" when the post title explains absolutely nothing.
They're different concepts.
One that worked very well a few years back (although around the limit of your budget) was getting a picture of their record collection, with permission, then sending the list to a music-fan non-mutual friend and asking what else they'd probably like.
Easy simple ones are small soaps, food treats like cheeses (yes, especially for the lactose-free crowd, e.g. goats cheese). I think you can't go too wrong with something that's quick enough to go through and doesn't end up cluttering someone's space if they don't use it if you give it to them each year and birthday.
But for close family, we openly just ask each other what we want unless we have an outstanding idea.
Sure, although this article is talking about the overall two-party preferred preference flow in electorates, with Labor vs. Liberal/Nationals as those two parties. So purely in this metric our valid votes will flow to ALP or L/NP even if we preference them as our last options, and even if our local electorate doesn't elect ALP or L/NP. If the two winning candidates in an electorate are Greens followed by One Nation, the two-party preferred preference flow chart will still only record whether you preferenced ALP above L/NP.
And you're still right, that absolutely can change, and we have some power to change it, but it takes more than us directing our own votes to make that change.
Yet they seem to share voters.
Please clarify how that's relevant, I don't understand the point that's being made here.
People have limited choices of House voting (and in my experience, a huge amount have a limited understanding of parties or policy) so voting for a party cannot be assumed as endorsement of policies. Greens aren't my favorite party and I'd enjoy seeing Labor leaders walk off a wharf, but I've lived in electorates where they were my 1 and 2 respectively.
(Note: "the voters are all wrong" is a hyperbolic statement)
Good point. Can't hurt to make sure the MPs across Sydney are aware.
Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. Recently the NSW police managed to let them unravel an antisemitic banner in front of parliament and make openly antisemitic speeches in front of it unchallenged.
I think that's their point - the Zionist movement intentionally tries to conflate Israel with Jewish people and with Judaism. For example, criticism of the country Israel and pro-Palestinean actions have generally been framed by Zionist groups as an attack on Jewish people, rather than an attack on a country and its actions.
This uses Jewish people as a shield for the actions of Zionism, and encourages antisemitism as a result. When some mass media news, social media influencers and racist agitators (e.g. neo-Nazis) all try to associate regular Jewish locals with the atrocities of Israel, this scapegoating puts all Jewish people (even those who are anti-Israel) in danger of indiscriminate attack.
Coincidentally, they are wrong (the guns were legally owned), but it doesn't even matter. They're coming into a grieving community to sarcastically troll about US gun legislation using some ridiculous strawman argument.
So they can get fucked.
Horrific. This is horrible, I hope the ambulance are able to help all the wounded. It's important that we do what we can, as a community, to help support those affected.
The heroic response from those around, including citizens and the police, probably saved many lives, and it's important that we recognise their courage.
