no, a matrix reference

yea the australian actor hugo weaving plays the character in the matrix

yeah, I know - I'm also sometimes a shitposter so that's why it's not Neo

But, for example, look at all the ching chong chinese students in melbourne. Theyre all spending tens of thousands of dollars getting their degrees here and on living expenses etc. I really dont think China is going to suddenly turn off the tap to australia. Not without at least a major escalation in the US China trade war

I never thought of it as an aussie refernce

they're not going to full bore on us, so much of their money is anchored here in real estate

they will twist the thumbscrews a lil bit

do you study econ / commerce?

self-taught/still learning

i did engineering but wish i had done an eng com double degree instead 😦

i found economics much more interesting

The problem i find is that because its such a politicised topic, its hard to identify honest actors

So i just go hard right if in doubt 👌🏻

Muh Gurl Blonde would be proud 👌🏻

fucking Victorian state gov just made it so you can't legally call yourself an engineer, in a professional context without a whole bunch of legal bullshit

dang i didnt know that

so many people call themselves an engineer without any qualification

or coz they have some trade qualification like boilermaker

so its probably not unreasonable to crack down on that, but knowing the victorian government theyll completely fuck it up

now you need to be registered, pay dues and and keep jumping through hoops to stay legal

We got new memes boi's,Any request?

Major oof reporting for dooty

I watched Dave Chapelles special on netflix....

It wasnt that funny. All the funny parts are on you tube so

I laughed 🤷

I like Jim Gafigan better

did you see Bill Burr's new one

i found that funnier than Chapelle's

i think Chapelle's was funny but not the laugh out loud kind of funny as usual

mass-recovering all of E. Michael Jones' censored YouTube videos from before the ADL took him out

MY BOY EMJ WILL NOT BE SILENCED, I WANNA WATCH AMERICA: THE GAY DISCO, AND I FUCKIN CANT

The amount of time per day that i spend being annoyed at the current state of YouTube is really mentally insane

Also totally agreed on Chapelle's special being lukewarm and massively overhyped

it was a B- level special and not even offensive, it was a standard issue netflix comedy special and nobody will remember it in a year

yep

you have to judge the special by normie standards not internet standards
for normies it's probably the edgiest thing they've watched in years by internet standards it's pretty mild

lol ye

I loled a couple of times. The abortion bit at the end was pretty funny.

You mean th bit "if you have a dick stfu?"

I rarely LOL at anything, I'm a smirk and breathe slightly more heavily thru my nose kind of guy
