You still get fined, it's an automatic thing

Might consider filling out the exemption form

But that means I gotta post it

How the fck are u fined on sovereign soil

Arent u in the land of the free and home of the burger?

Still an aussie citizen

Neglecting to vote even when overseas is fined

Rather not have it on my record

Well how are they gonna enforce it if you dont pay

They can't, but they can put it on my record for the Americans to find as they process me

Claire Bear: fugitive
Charge: didnt vote

Yes

Imagine fining people for not wanting to participate in the political circus that is Australia

Fucking ridiculous

Piss off from effort posting

Can't you vote for that one guy

Forgot his name

Or write-in Adolf Hitler

I can't vote, I don't know my details and I didn't know the vote was happening until too late for a write in. So instead I either have to fill in a dumbass form, or get fined 128 bucks

@Asio home iMac Didn't see your reaction.
Good to hear that the translation is pretty good. What did you think about Geheimen van het Wilde Woud (Secrets of the Wild Wood)?

From *Benedict's Rule*

>enrolling to vote in the first place

heh!

I dont know a single german word, but I bought this mini Bible through illustrations

That is pretty cool

@Mozalbete ⳩ Fraktur (German blackletter) is relatively unpleasant to read, even if you know the language. If you can read and understand English, can do the same with German. It may take a bit of practice but it is quite well doable. It's totally different than writing it, that is a major source of frustration.

I try but cant read it

Which is a shame, because there were so many beautiful mini books

guys

the first book of all of greek mythology is Teogony, isnt it?

I'm about to buy a mini version of the Wizard of Oz

Could someone confirm it is not written fy a freemason or something lmao

"Baum was originally a Methodist, but he joined the Episcopal Church in Aberdeen to participate in community theatricals. Later, he and his wife were encouraged by Matilda Joslyn Gage to become members of the Theosophical Society in 1892. Baum's beliefs are often reflected in his writing. The only mention of a church in his Oz books is the porcelain one which the Cowardly Lion breaks in the Dainty China Country in The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. The Baums sent their older sons to "Ethical Culture Sunday School" in Chicago, which taught morality, not religion."

Good enough

>Theosophy

That shit was weird af, I don't know much about it but I get a sick feeling when I deal with theosophy books. Freemason stuff I pick up when I find it, even if it's creepy it's typically benign (anything shifty they have isn't accessible by lay members/turning up in used bookstores, most of Masonry is a faggy country club), I tend to give theosophical stuff a pass

Nothing wrong with collecting antique fiction though. Even if it's degenerate, the artistry of the book itself typically outweighs the content.
