The people have pulled together… They always do.
They are simply sick of years of inaction, budget cuts, and now political point scoring the government is trying to do when it (finally) announces it is increasing funding - which is actually just partial restoration of the funding it has been ripping away over the years.
The people are the ONLY ones doing anything, so please don’t think Aussies are not pulling together in support to fight the fires, protect person, animal, or property - they always do. And our PM deserves every bit of hate, if for no other reason than he is a massive can’t… Can’t do a damned thing. He genuinely is a dick. Ask any Australian

To give you some idea of his stupidity, our PM’s recent tone deaf act of ass-hattery was to turn up to the funeral of a recently killed volunteer firefighter and claim that “it’s tremendous to be here”…
What a fuckwit.
What would be “tremendous” is if he never had to turn up to the funeral of that firefighter. There is no context you can place that comment where it is anything less than insensitive, selfish, dumb-shit bullshit.
What a can’t

Oh no I’ve seen that as well. The guys who are not leaving because they want to help.
I was on about the political point scoring. These people are the ones who are safe. Instead of trying out politic each other they should be in there helping.
But I know that it doesn’t work like that.
But I hope you know what I mean.

My heart aches when I think of what you all are going through, and the damage to the land and all those poor animals… Everyone over here is praying very hard.

Absolutely heartbreaking to see the scale of devastation @AyBee. Thank you for that graphic. It helps to see what Australia is up against. Really hope you can stay safe, no more lives are lost and somehow the fires get put out!

It’s just so awful and scary. Stay safe. Love and prayers to everyone involved xx
Started off rockin, had a few struggles last couple of days but finding my feet again now. When I first came on here this thread was always at the top. It’s where the people that I like to think as friends were all unlucky enough to get sucked into my mind. And I’ll never look back, you were there but vanished for a bit. It’s good to have you back. I need some stability in life

Hello Paul. I’m so happy to see that struggle bus is finally slowing down so you can get the hell off.
You didn’t save me any snickers the other night but that’s ok, I went out and got me some last night. I ate all 4 of them by myself.

Bloody hell what have I started? I’m all good thanks guys and happy to hear that you are all still trucking. There’s too many of your to reply to singularly so this is a blanket reply.
I remember those days @Dolse71 it’s high time @anon35096624 Julia’s thread came back to life.

Doing ok. Super busy at work so I’m not on as much as I’d like to be. But this thread really helped me in my super early days. I love all you crazy addicts!! Just enjoying a beautiful day here in Texas.

same here, while I was in bed and then I can’t figure out why I can’t sleep. TBH after reading a few posts I’ve decided talking about how much food I can eat is probably not the most respectful subject so sorry people but when we give up drinking and smoking we end up in your world of comfort eating. Lisa I’m feeling a lot better now, I didn’t just get off the bus I let its bloody tyres down so it won’t be coming round here again in a hurry.

Thank you for disabling that bus, I don’t want it coming here. I’m sure there’s probably another that will find its way but I’ll keep my eyes wide open and wave it bye.
I didn’t think about the food talk but it’s what’s really helping me lately. I thought it would pass at 90 days but nope. Maybe I’ll address it at 120. Whatever it takes for us not to pick up is a plus in my book.
