The only reason governments won't legalise cannabis is because big pharma will take a huge hit. It's all about money. Alcohol kills more people than weed ever will, that is a certainty.

Tobacco and Alcohol do more damage but collect a lot of taxes - at least you'll get the tax going to the govt. instead of drug dealers. It is a complicated issue and deserves more than just a simple yes or no.

Trying to maintain a certain standard of beauty is tough, especially after thirty. There is so much societal pressure on women without having to look at photoshopped images of bodies that are unattainable. And they wonder why so many women have eating disorders. The mind boggles!

In July 2020, a 56-year-old woman posed for Sports Illustrated and I think that is an amazing step forward. Beauty in men and women doesn't expire at a certain age. Sexy doesn't discriminate. Do you agree?

Not bothered. Models don't influence my decision to buy something because I know I look nothing like them and their products will still make me look nothing like them! Next.......

I love my work. So I can understand people wanting to continue their passions after winning millions. But people who continue on in dead-end jobs (that they hate) a week after winning the jackpot should have their winnings taken off them.

Rubbish! You need a bit of time to get your wits together and the best way to do that is to stay a normal as you can. Give yourself space to realise the enormity of it

I work. I function. I go to the gym. I eat healthy. But I consume a bottle of red wine a night. Is this normal or could I be a functioning alcoholic?
Grandma
If you HAVE to drink that much every night you most definitely have a problem and need to get help or be strong enough to not buy it in the first place.

A lot of my neighbors, here in the States, have "Ring" doorbells installed. Or, another type of technology to replace their "doorbells". Another thing, many have so many gadgets, from speakers to their light fixtures being operated through the internet. It s like a spy organization cinematic plot, from earpieces to hidden cameras on one's bow tie. It's incredible, yet very impersonal. What are your thoughts on these Technological Devices?
JoeB
It can be good for your security but it can also be highly invasive. Care needs to be taken with your liberty. On a lighter side one time when we were in a holiday home my friends wife was on dinner duty when the power failed and the stove went off, she said bugger and just put it in the microwave....AND??? Lol.... I laughed so much she biffed a sausage at me. Too much reliance on modern technology can be hazardous...lol

The cost of living has really impacted hard on so many families as we head into Christmas In my small family we are only spending money on gifts for children and have done so for a couple of years. Do you still buy gifts for adults or only children?
BLM
I don't have a child or children. I don't give gifts to a child or children on Christmas Day (which is a pagan holiday). I was raised an agnostic and became an atheist. I didn't give or receive Christmas Day gifts as a child, and I don't give or receive Christmas Day gifts as an adult. La vie est une garce et ensuite tu meurs - La vie est courte - Pourquoi perde du temps avec des croyances religieuses stupides!

Vacations can be a chance to take a break from, not just work, but typical food routines, too. That can lead to weight gain, but it's probably water weight, not fat, a dietitian said. Weight gained after a vacation is nothing to stress about and is completely normal. What would you say? Is it normal to gain 2kg on holiday?

You shouldn't buy all that duty free booze and chocolates, then your luggage wouldn't be 2kg heavier coming home. \ud83d\ude09

Maybe it's just me, but have you found that when you order some kit set furniture like bunk beds, or shelving units etc. You get MOST of what you need? And usually there are some missing bolts, or the joints don't quite line up etc, what has been your experience? Also, do you try to send it back, or just figure it out and make it work??

Checkout aisle and impulse Items designed to give you another opportunity to purchase. While you are waiting in line, you look over and see some candy or gum. There are also magazines and other items at the checkout. This is a prime spot for stores to sell impulse items. What are your thoughts? How do stores get us to buy more?
***...***
Don't get sucked in. It's a mind game. Your mind is the decider in the end, you decide to purchase that on a whim. Then the market wins because they got your money. I never impulse purchase, and It's like ads, I mute ads so I do not buy into that crap

If you take a look back in history, carrying a few extra pounds was a sign of wealth because rich people were the only ones that could afford fattening food. Fast forward to 2020 and junk food is cheaper than healthy food and poor people are fatter than rich people. One would assume if we were to raise the price of junk food exponentially. Our health would improve. Thoughts?
James
no, i limit my intake a lot now, sick of everything going up. Also sick of do gooders raising prices of fuel, power, water, cigarettes, alcohol because its better for me or the planet.
But if it make you feel better about your intake, roll your next burger up in a tight ball, and stick it up your bum!

Growing your own food can be cheaper and healthier. With the rising cost of produce, many of my family and friends started growing more produce. I myself grow a few things which I find taste better as there is no need for insecticides/chemicals. Have you tried growing your own produce?
LindaB
We moved to a rural property - a year ago tomorrow, actually - and since then I have grown potatoes, kumara (sweet potatoes for those outside NZ), NZ yams, carrots, cauli, broccoli, capsicums, corn, onions (red and brown), spring onions, pumpkins, beans, snowpeas (mange tout), leeks, cabbages (red and savoy), spinach, silverbeet, swede, daikon radish, beetroot, garlic, rhubarb, courgettes (zucchini), several varieties of tomatoes and herbs and attempted eggplant (aubergine) but was unsuccessful with those as I planted them too late in the season. We have also harvested feijoas, lemons, limes, mandarins and peaches from trees that were already established on the property. We also have chickens for eggs. I have made several batches of pasta sauce, tomato relish, peach jam, onion marmalade and feijoa chutney. I also make my own Irish soda bread, naan bread and focaccia. We are loving the flavours of fruit and veges fresh from the garden and are looking to add more gardens so we can grow more produce.

When did publishers think that magazines should have articles printed on coloured backgrounds? These last few years it's been rife. Perhaps they're in cohorts with opticians because its practically impossible to read and may be causing eye problems - dark brown background printed with black writing or pink pages printed with yellow writing.It may look pretty and 'now', but if you can't read it, what's the point of publishing it. Do others have this problem?

As a person who doesn't own my own vehicle, this is something I struggle with as I'm job hunting. I notice a lot of companies say: "must have full G license with own vehicle." I see that I'm qualified for the job and can take public transport, but am unable to apply to the job since I don't have a vehicle. Even though I have my G2, I can't afford a vehicle right now. I find it unfortunate that I have to miss out on job opportunities because of this. If certain...

Do you buy your meat from a supermarket or a dedicated butchery? I recently heard that lots of in-house butchers were being laid off from supermarkets. It made me fell a tad guilty for buying my meat from supermarkets for about the past 30 years. So I decided I would find a local butcher and do my shopping from there in the future. To my great surprise the entry door was plastered with ads for jobs, full time, part-time or casual. Perhaps my feeling of guilt was not...

How much do you think the content of your dreams is actually significant? I have heard that if someone appears in your dreams, that they are thinking of you.

Its a tricky one...you don't just know more now...you are probably quite a different person too...I don't know how I would get on with myself when I was 23....radically different to now....your life experiences have contributed a lot to who you are at the moment...if you tinker in the past you will be different in the present...its all connected and hopefully a learning experience

Falling prey to a con artist can be a humiliating and often expensive exercise. Many cons end in costly court cases, even imprisonment, and that's just for the victims. The perpetrators often appear to be charismatic and charming, but they re far more likely to be narcissistic risk-takers who revel in power and control. Have you ever met anyone of such charismatic and complex character?
BLM
My ex-wife is charismatic and charming (still CUTE and still has a BODY (not a good foundation for a marriage) - which is still amazing since my ex-wife is eleven years older than me - still a SCAM ARTIST (Does a tiger lose its' stripes as it gets older?) - I guess we all play the FOOL (I know I did) at some point in our Lifes (and your money is going to part from you under suspicious circumstances while you are playing the FOOL). I guess the TRICK is not to make the same mistake twice in your lifetime (easily said - harder to accomplish)!

Trainers became fashionable in the late 1970s you had the cool looking shoe mounted on a bed of what looked a lot like silicone...and then a hard wearing sheet of sole with grip marks on the bottom...you bounced around, you walked on air, I could work 16-hour shifts in a kitchen on concrete floors and my feet were fine...these would always last at least a year...and a lot more........now they look "cooler"...more colours, more styles....most give you "firm" support or...
Ghostly
That's called MARKETING. I have some Sketchers I have been wearing for years, I pop them in the wash. All these trendy shoes are for those woke people who want to make a statement..hey look at me I'm exercising and boo hoo to you old fat idiots. All you do is see how the shoes feel on your feet. I always look for specials. There only thing after having three kids it is not worth buying cheapo Kmart school shoes for your kids. They didn't last a term and the soles just fell off. I go to clearance shops that have premium leather school shoes at a much lower price.

I worked in a Nursing Home, where I witnessed an AIN pushing over a resident, calling him a stupid old man. I went straight to the Deputy to report it. She told me that I should be nice to this girl, because she was having a hard time at home. I was absolutely shocked that this could not only happen, but there were zero repercussions for someone who was supposed to be giving care to the frail, elderly residents.

I stock up on non-perishables at sale time. I've never paid full price for hair colour or washing detergent: I wait until they're on sale for 50% off, then buy two or three packs. I buy new boots at the end of winter sales & sandals & swimwear at the end of summer. I'm more concerned about comfort & quality than the latest fashions. For larger items like furniture, I wait until post-Xmas or end of financial year sales. I also sew a lot of my own clothes - that saves a LOT!

Last night I let the dog out and the air was so sickening. During my sleep I was woken up by a blocked nose and the smell from outside had seeped into my room. I could not sleep so I got up for a cup of tea instead. I felt better and was able to breath easier. This happens nearly every month. Why I have no idea. Why not every night? Does this happen in your area?
Stevi Wonder
Investigate Suzy. Could be a factory near by. It could be anything? See if other people in your community or neighbourhood are noticing the same smell. Once you can identify where the smell is coming from, then you can contact your local council & see if they can do anything about fixing the problem. Good luck in your investigation Suzy.

I don't think that people are too different between all the various states in Australia...and I think that this applies in the USA as well. I don't understand why Queenslanders cannot buy alcohol in a supermarket ... or why Victorians can buy certain drugs in theirs ... is driving at 110 only the best speed in certain states..and in others it is set at 100?.....there is really very little difference between us...it IS just one country...why can't we just have one...
Hohum
Haha, it's simple really, It depends how much revenue the various states need. For example, if not enough people break the speed limit at 110 then reduce it to 100 etc.

I so enjoyed Emma Kate's recent discussion on favourite songs for her playlist and then started thinking about the first cassette tape i ever bought- which was in the 80s. It was Human League. I was a student at a Technical Institute and was living away from home for the first time and in a Halls of residence. Having my music cassette player going was great and i remember friends making those mix tapes with some many great songs on them.

How did it happen?.....it was a gradual process, starting in the 1970's when gay men started wearing trainers when they had no intention to do any training...that quickly spread to the whole population...then we had "girl power" which meant the only way to be equal to men was to wear your bra on the outside and wander around half naked...this has now filtered down to the general population...it can be a blessing or a curse depending on how much fat is crammed into very small quantities of a semi see through stretch material....each to their own....

Why are so many people rude to supermarket staff. We are human too we have good days and bad days. We have things going on outside of work that we worry / stress about. It's not our fault something isn't in stock or has run out. We have zero control over what the company we work for does!

I may be wrong about this. But I think men believe if they pay for dinner, they are entitled to sex. So I usually offer to pay for both meals or go Dutch, to hold on to my power.

Now with all the devices we have, long distance friendships are super easy to achieve and maintain, but not too much just a few years ago. You know, people used to write letters in a paper with a pen or a pencil, and send those to the nearest postal office, those were called letters. Do you ever had a long distant friendship when the phones, internet and pc didn't exist? It last long? How old were you? Do you still writing letter?

I had a Japanese pen pal about 50 years ago but after an earthquake never heard from her again. I currently write to a friend in America who hasn't got a computer but haven't heard from him for some time so will be writing to him very soon. Hope he is still around. There has occasionally been a gap in our letter-writing so I'm not too worried about it.

Our conversations are very enriching on both sides. What about you guys?

My husband & I have always made it important to buy each other a card on special occasions. Birthdays, Anniversaries, Christmas, Mothers & Fathers Day etc. We are now retired, cards are expensive & money is tight. We have kept all our cards over the years & now have them in a container so that on each special occasion we find time to go through our passed cards & recycle one to each give the other. There are many beautiful, meaningful cards & it is so nice to read them...

The Federal Government only wants to sqwuander untold hundreds of billions on Armaments and other Military equipment to "Protect Australia from foreign invasion" - they never actually tells us whom it is who is threatening Australia. The totally absurd thing about all this squandering of all that money, yes I know it is minuscule compared to the US and China, is that all of this equipment will be completely obsolete before any of it actually becomes operational! These absurd governments - since when does a country with just 26 million people need ONe Federal, 6 State & 2 Territory Governments?
All are now hell-bent on squandering even more billions on Space Exploration! As if they haven't, along with all the rest of the World's Politicians, made a big enough mess of our World without doing the same to others.
Spend all that money on Housing, Health and Education and stop warmongering. It is our Politicians and Religious Leaders who have been, and still are, responsible for All the Wars which have ever been waged.
Decent, Honest, Ordinary people want no part of those wars, yet they are the ones who are sent out to fight and die for the wars the politcians have deliberately, and are at present trying to create.

Some neighbours are friendly, some are not. I prefer to chat with the friendly ones and respect the others. My next right neighbour (when you face the house) is hard to see, she's never home, but we chatted twice. The one on the left, with 2 young kids, is very friendly but private. What about yours?
Luvvy dove
One of my neighbours is not very friendly they turn there back when they see me lol
I don't even know them some people are very strange

I've noticed that more men think that a Platonic relationship between adult people (where one person is a gender that the other person is attracted to) involves an ulterior motive, while more women think that true friendships can exist without an ulterior motive. What are your thoughts?
Bugalugs
It's the New year and the Misandry Campaign is, once again, off and running.
We hear, endlessly, about how Horrible, how Distrustful, how Devious, how Abusive, how Misogynistic men are. They are no longer allowed to express an opinion, they must never, ever dare to say they don't like some female, their clothes, their botoxed faces, artificially pumped up lips - the list of what men must not do and how cruel, unfeeling and hurtful they are is endless and on-going
BUT we never, ever hear, or rather are never allowed to hear that Females can be every bit as bastardly as any male BUT challenge them and they will claim they are "Exercising THEIR Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression"!
No apologies but Christina C's statement is typical misandrist nonsense, men are no more, nor less, likely to have ulterior motives than any woman.

I have a very large backyard pool with all the required fencing and surrounds. The pool inspector visited our house, and it did not pass inspection because of a spindly, scraggy shrub outside the fence the first time that inspection cost $350, the final inspection we passed another $200 paid. We also replaced one fence that was deemed pool safe a few years ago, but is now longer deemed safe. We will have to pay to have the pool inspected all over again in 3 years time...

we had an outdoor spa and had to do the same thing, the cost was getting ridiculous, so we pulled it out and filled it in.

Have you ever felt completely drained in a close relationship - by a friend or a spouse? I did - it took me a long time to realise that all my energy is sucked out of me by a long time friend. His constant, unstoppable emotional battle with real or imagined dramas sucked my life-blood out of me. Tried to help him, felt sorry for him...too long. There was nothing I d do than completely stop the relationship with a heroic effort. Have you experienced something similar and if you did...
lippy loo
Yes and I cut them out of my life completely. We seem to be conditioned to cop this rubbish and look the other way etc. Not on. Some people are drama driven, others are using these tactics to keep you under their thumb with you thinking you can or should help them for some stupid reason. Life is too short to have to deal with these types of roller coaster relationships. Being on tender hooks waiting for the boom gates to drop and you have to appease them in some way. Cut and run...

With all this Facebook, Ticktock, Rewardia chat etc people can write anything that can have profound effects on gullible minds. Construction of statements carefully manipulating fact and fiction, laced with emotive fear arousing baits. Is it free speech or free banter? Is freedom the right to do what we like/ what is freedom/ Does it come with a price?

I wonder just how many people here on this forum are aware that since October 2021 that the Australian government can hack, quite legally, your social media accounts and alter and delete them for any reason whatsoever? It's called the Identify and Disrupt Bill which was passed at 2am on a Wednesday late in that month. Go and look it up on the Australian government website if you don't believe me. I was told this by my son who happened to be working with some Barristers who were visited by a man called Arthur, whom our previous female Premier in NSW had been in a relationship with at that time, just so people don't think I'm writing this with the view to commit some kind of fraud! I cannot watch MSM any longer because my research outside of this alleged "media sources" has led me to scientific research and resulting evidence leaving no room for me to conclude anything other than the following: that what is "news" content, at least as it relates to the"magic potion" killing and maiming people across the planet, is simply propaganda and theatre. I did not draw this conclusion without facts empirically derived from Researchers, Doctors and Scientists of many varied disciplines and I KNOW that my own government has lied and continues to lie about their own involvement in this charade. This is backed up in previously confidential documents detailing the Australian Military's involvement from decades ago of weaponising biological organisms through gain of function research and funding the same. I can say with clarity that freedom has never been SO under threat as it is now, not only because the government can come in and change your own words and remove them as they see fit, but because of the terms "misinformation" and"disinformation", but WHO decides this? I can see Big Tech's involvement but who among you are aware of the infiltration of WEF members, of whom Big Tech plays a leading role, in terminology used to discredit certain viewpoints. Just as the CIA coined the term "conspiracy theorist" to describe someone who thinks outside of the mainstream narrative and make them out to be "kooks", so too have Google, You Tube Twitter etc, who are all partners in this globalist agenda for a NWO where there will be no choices, no ownership of anything including your shoes, and certainly no privacy or freedom! If we lose the right to voice our own opinions today they will be gone tomorrow and NEVER return! If we don't want to live in a smart grid with cameras recording our every movement as it already is in China and adopt their credit score system, we all need to think about what it will be like for our children and THEIR children if we don't now say that enough is enough! Thanks for reading this.

Do you think it is difficult for people to relate to you, unless they have a similar background or upbringing? When I was younger there was a TV series (one Canadian and the other from the US) dedicated to doing this very thing.

Mostly the city kids would switch with the kids from the countryside, but other times it would be experiencing...

Some people have a nightly before-bed ritual. Shower/bath, teeth, hair in rollers (am I showing my age, with that one?). herbal tea, or all or none of the above. I like to have a chamomile tea, a small slice of cheese and a few crackers, maybe a bit of fruit, if I'm feeling energetic - not usual - brush my teeth and occasionally clean my face with a cleanser wipe, say my prayers then hit the hay, usually between 10.00 and 11.00pm. What is your nightly routine?
WonkyandProud
I am alone and have depression and anxiety and no family. I do what I want when I want, but that doesn't fit into society. I might go to bed at 10 p.m. or 5 a.m. and sleep most of the day. I try to get my meds on time and eat once in a while. I hate routines. They were not made for me, but my counselors have been fighting me for years to get into a routine. If I'm happy, the world will have to adjust to MY schedule!

Some people believe we should be teaching our kids more worthwhile life lessons like how to cook, sew, mend or even drive. Instead of making it too academically focused. What do you think?
Leslie D 488751
When I was a kid we learnt to cook, clean, sew, mend, and everything else by our parents. I guess if both parents are working they have some kind of excuse for not teaching their children, but that is just an excuse. I know society has more academically minded dropouts now than we ever did. Is it because they can't, or don't want to, find work?

In terms of genes, what did you inherit from a relative? I inherited my grandfather's nose, but it's a female version. I inherited my hazel green eyes from (I am guessing) my Irish part of the family. How about you? And, feel free to add an environmental trait, if you don't know what you have inherited (i.e. are adopted). Like a habit picked up from those around you.

What are your thoughts about "value" we can find anywhere these days? You would think that paying more equals getting better, safer and healthier products of higher quality, but is it always the case?
Bugalugs
No of course a Higher Price does not mean better value. Take a trip into one of those very up-market Department Stores and those dinky little Boutiques offering, supposedly Designer Gear, Exclusive Brands by Haute Couture Houses of Fashion. Grossly over Priced garments but ALL Made in China, India, Bangladesh and other slave-to super-low Income countries. We went in to one of those Department Stores, up the escalator and into the Women's Fashion Floor. There at the top of the escalator was a display of a well-know designer. Faded Jeans with selectively placed "Tears", Price? A not-so-cool $695.00! The top? It looked liked a woman's vest-cum-Tee shirt with a tiny single row of "lace" around the neckline. The price? An equally not-so-cool $435.00!
My female companion unbuttoned the top couple of buttons on her blouse to reveal an identical top with exactly the same single row of "lace". Price at the Local Market? $15.00. Our local Op Shop sells faded Levi Jeans with naturally worn, strategically sited holes - just like the Designer jeans at $695 for just $10! - I know this because they were my jeans! The only reason I was not still wearing them was because I don't think it is appropriate for Mature Age Men and Women to dress as if they were in their late teens! Brand, Price and Designer Labels mean Nothing.

My favourite childhood memories are playing outside with friends.

Depends on what the drug is and why they're taking it for. If it's for enhancing like steroids, then I think they should be banned but if it's for medical purpose, then it's ok.

How do you describe best friendships ? A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future and accepts you just the way you are. Good friends are like stars. You don't always see them, but you know that they are always there. A friend is one of the nicest things you can have, and one of the best things you can be.

A friend is someone who is always there for you to give comfort and support. We go through life but really you can count your "Best" friends on one hand. So many people these days are fake.

Do you have any of these friends?

No none. Wish I had it might motivate me to exercise more. The most I do is walk every day for approx. 30 min. with my dog. Used to love dancing the Rock and Roll. Now that kept me fit. Sometimes I wish I could go back to it again.

My p.o.v, from the 12 year old me I'd say yes, it is important to go school and get good grades to get a good job for your future, but now? I wouldn't really know.. I've met people who say they finished school, had good grades and graduated all just to end up in McDonald's, apparently "grades" does not matter at all when it comes to a job? Thoughts?
ZoeC
School is not just about grades. School is about learning how to develop social skills, to negotiate, to converse, to organise your time, to learn about what is appropriate in different contexts ... the list goes on. These are all vital skills for the workforce. They may not help you get a job initially, but they will certainly help you keep it, and they improve your chances of progressing in work that you really enjoy.

It seems good, but I get annoyed And disappointed that I can’t complete surveys and I either get half way thru or to the end and the page doesn’t load and then I miss out on points, that I’ve worked hard for on surveys, what’s the point putting surveys up and People not being able to complete them or completing them all for nothing? Would be helpful to at least get some points instead of it completely wasting my time, that I would never get back!

Ketyad
Tamz, you are answering your own question. If you have been able to "survive" without this shallow friend in your life continue to do so. She has made contact with you, what could that reason be? Did you recently win the Lotto, is she sick, unwell, and needing support, has she apologized or is there anything to apologize for/ There are just so many questions but my initial reaction is continue on without her.

How is it that airlines can get away with dirty water on their planes? Many waters (not bottled) have been tested a d have been found to have bacteria. Sometimes even E. coli. It's no wonder the pilots never drink tea or coffee. Would you risk the water on the plane for their noodle cups? The ice cubes are made in the airport. I used to drink tea (on flights) but no longer. How about you?

Absolutely - You can't let them get away with bad behaviour or they will take full advantage of it and you! Let them know you are in charge and should be respected. If their parents don't like you disciplining them, they don't have to leave them with you. And they probably leave them with you because they can't control them and hope you will teach them some respect.

Many of us are told "Hey you're a natural! Have you ever considered ... as a career?" We're often told to pursue our talents, but is this good advice?

What do you think? Which method have you used, and how has that worked for you?

Is reaching out for therapy (mental health) - a good idea? YES! Is this individual at the point - that he or she knows that they need to converse with a mental health specialist/professional? Does this individual have a 'health plan' that covers depression? If not, can this individual afford to visit a mental health specialist/professional on a regular basis for 'an extended period of time'?
