Tabs are great to learn finger picking.
Not all arrangements great.
Solo Ukulele fΓΌr Einsteiger by Winifred Von Welti free ebook is good and all on YouTube, if you like classics.

When fuel is $20 per litre I will give it up.
The economy might grind to a halt with expensive fuel, but the average commuter is more likely to explore alternative transport options.

You're protesting about this toot? That does not deserve a $20,000 fine and court silence order. Nobody was injured by the protests. Therefore they were peaceful.

One day, he may type something in the search bar and miss you. No guarantees, though. Solo time gives space to work out what makes you happy. πŸ€” new hobby. New friends. New interest. Self care. Counselling. Metamorphosis. New butterfly πŸ¦‹ ✨️

A manager might say your statement is reason to enter a conversation.

Conversation, my aching foot! That's corporate speak for performance management.

No. We are perfectly capable of having our own version of the right wing extremist shambles. Reaction to hard times. Source good news. Stay calm and vote against them.

Contrast this with the old world where historically in britain, there were centuries when only landowners were allowed to vote. The industrial revolution saw new laws that allowed those with a certain acreage OR enough cash could vote. The system was horrifically skewed towards the wealthy. I can completely understand early Australian insistence that all adults vote and then extending it to include Aboriginal people in 1967. Nobody is excluded from contributing to legislation. At least we must all chose a party every four years. On the other hand- in the age of the internet - Why we aren't voting online over party membership, platform and policy decisions beggars belief. There are attempts to make a difference. Both by direct action (XR as example) and indirect pressure https://ccl.org.au/

The health care system is pretty broken for neurotypical people too. Expect long waits with a temporary blanket and bowl of porridge for those that qualify. Later, write to your MP about the lack of funds.

Embassador to an overwhelming and malevolent empire of creditors. I would expect a lot of respectful silence on such thin ice.

@RustyRaven @LowExperience2368 you can combine paracetamol with non-steroidal anti-inflamatory such as nurofen or voltage to amplify the analgesic effect. Cold pack.

@wscholermann @Seagoon_ Fatherhood means - after a while you prefer the crust. All relationships involve some form of compromise. It takes a lifetime to find a good one and maintain it. My marriage and family life is worth it. I see more material on throuples and other arrangements, but that stuff is for my kids gen to work out - looks like a lot more work

@Force_majeure123 @Seagoon_ representative media would include couples who are three percent Aboriginal, six percent chinese, half a percent italian, ten percent queer, sixty six percent working class etc. That would be representative. Pretty difficult to cast.
