Utes come in all sorts of different configurations, but the basic rules stay the same. The front is a comfortable sedan, something you'd be happy to drive around all day every day and reasonably cheap on fuel, very important to independent contractors. The tray on the back can be almost anything... -

Aussie car manufacturers all closed down during the 2010s. Now most of our cars come from Japan and Germany. Australia has always been a good market for Japan and they still make Utes for us instead of those stupid oversized pieces of junk. They're suffering a little bit of the body bloat that... -

Something that brought a smile to my face. By law shopping centres have to provide a certain number of parking spaces, bigger parking spaces means they'd need more land, which in established suburban areas simply isn't available. Now for insurance reasons some shopping centres have introduced... -

Austro-Canadian trade is increasing lately, as it should. Having similar political systems makes trade a lot less complicated. In many areas we have been competing with each other but that's changing now that we're phasing out coal and gas. If your car manufacturers switched to making smaller... -

I suspect it's the old measures still hanging around - 27.54 grams to an ounce. $105 for 15 grams is my discounted pensioner price, others have to pay $210 for that 15 grams. -

Aurora Cannabis Enterprises Limited, marketed under the name IndiMed. https://www.auroramedical.com/ I have a dry herb vape but I don't use it very often any more. I found that when using the vape my tolerance went up very quickly and I found myself going through weed at a much faster rate... -

Tell them to come and visit Adelaide, I'll take them on a tour of different regions and show them where they're going wrong. :) Adelaide was always Australia's weed capital. Not just because of climate and soil but also because of the attitudes of the local population and the police. Although... -

@the_tortoise , thanks for the information on turpenes, it explains a few things. The medical weed that I get, 19% thc, comes from Canada and tastes like crap. The locally grown weed that I can get on the street smells and tastes much sweeter and fruitier and doesn't rip my throat apart like... -

A stork like bird we have is the Jabiru, but our spoonbills are just plain white. Neither of them are small birds, larger than geese. Our pelicans are different to yours too, black and white and much larger.- Outdated

I think it was this brain fog effect that was helpful to me. It slowed me down enough that I could live in the moment instead of being scattered across past present and future. The same as with alcohol I never formed an addiction, and every few years when my tolerance for it gets too high I'll... -

Interesting that yours have feathers on their heads, ours are bald. Our frogs and crustaceans must bury themselves deeper in the mud than yours, that's the only reason I can think of for needing a bald head. And what we call a White Ibis is also known as the Sacred Ibis, from Egyptian mythology...- Outdated

I have a few employees with autism and asperger's
They are likely to be your most loyal staff. You get what you give in this world. It sounds like you're doing everything right. A couple of years ago I helped work on a resource for employers with autistic staff, perhaps some of it might be useful or at least interesting to you: Resources -...- Outdated

It looks like a Bin Chicken that's suffered an industrial accident. :) That's actually a White Ibis. Australia has 2 species of them, The White Ibis lives in temperate climates, the Straw Necked Ibis lives in the tropics: Up in Darwin the straw necked ibis also gets called a Territory...- Outdated

Do you leave tips?
We made changes to the award for delivery drivers recently. Companies had been treating them as contractors instead of casual staff which meant the companies didn't have to contribute anything to the worker's superannuation fund. That practice has now been outlawed... -

Why does society view autistic people as mentally incompetent?
I never bother to tell anyone. Sometimes when people get to know me better they might ask me, and then I won't lie, but by then they've already formed their own opinion of me instead of believing a stereotype.- Outdated

Why does society view autistic people as mentally incompetent?
People won't know you're autistic if you don't tell them. Try not telling them and see if they still treat you the same way.- Outdated
