Outside of nice metro neighbourhoods the great Australian coffee is mostly myth, I live in Sawtell which has several cafes yet I can make a much better coffee on my <$1k set up here than any of them can with $30-40k equipment

The modern game..
Arsenal have committed three errors leading to goals in the Premier League this season; Martín Zubimendi has been responsible for two of them (also vs Spurs in November).

Stephen Miller called the victim, an ICU nurse at the VA filming ICE, a “domestic terrorist who tried to assassinate federal law enforcement.” Greg Bovino said he “wanted to massacre law enforcement.” You saw the videos. How can any Republican not call for their resignations?

If the Albanese is serious about making Australia safer for Jewish people a good start would be not treating Netanyahu’s murderous extremist government like normal human beings.

Just found out not only do I need to get a British passport to visit the UK now but my daughters (who are UK citizens by birth, despite being born in 🇦🇺) *also* need a 🇬🇧 passport to travel there. In fact the only person with a straightforward arrangement is my 🇦🇺 born wife, who can just fly in 🤷♂️

I’ve followed Stoke long enough to know we aren’t winning today.
I can’t explain why, it’s a home game, it’s easy enough on paper and yet it’s not gonna happen.
