Leaving it to the Coroner to do the pill testing seems sub-optimal

A young person died just days after the LNP make pill testing illegal.

There’s a good chance that if they could have had these pills tested, they’d be with us all today.

"All self-respecting river kingdoms have vast supernatural plagues, but the best the Old Kingdom had been able to achieve in the last hundred years was the Plague of the Frog*.
(*It was quite a big frog, however, and got into the air ducts and kept everyone awake for weeks)" - Terry Pratchett.

Another unbelievable tragedy, we've been so desensitised to road violence that we aren't rioting on our streets to demand safer streets from cars and trucks.

Thanks, we wouldn’t make that distinction here - I used to live in an apartment that I rented, then I bought it, but it was still an apartment!

Is there an equivalent terminology change for houses?

Private equity owns very little housing and in any case they're buying it TO RENT IT, not to leave it empty.

This is terminology I’m not familiar with, I’d have thought they were the same thing (we don’t really use the term “condo” in Australia).
