No a man and a woman kissing is neutral obviously. You would have to show them two women kissing to cancel it out.

Wtf is this headline. The reality is not more complex, she is just wrong. Just say she is wrong and a liar.

The pay is one thing, the next filter for Australian PhD students though is that if you want a job in academia you probably have to go overseas, at least for a few years as a postdoc. You may also get paid shit all as a postdoc depending on where you go, and then your position will probably only be for 2 years then you have to find somewhere else.

Will you be able to come home eventually? No uni has any money to hire permanent staff so good luck!

I don't think Rubin is crazy, he just doesn't care. Hes made loads of money pandering to the right while having to do zero work or reading.

Admittedly I wasn't paying 100% attention but I'm pretty sure I saw a report on ABC news last night where Alan Kohler had graphs to extremely strongly imply that the birth rate decline was the fault of mobile phones...

I feel like asking such a stupid question should immediately disqualify you from parliament.

I think if you're going to a Candice Owens talk you're probably pretty used to being scammed.

Yes. Twitter is owned by a billionaire who likes to push a certain worldview. You deny this?

Thanks for reinforcing my point.

Deep rock galactic, tried playing with friends a few times and holy shit I would rather watch grass grow. I have never played a game that made me disassociate to that extent.

Also the endless repetition of a few extremely unfunny lines by the fans reminds of Rick and Morty fans.

As someone with family members in academia, I know first hand how 99% of studies are a joke.

As someone who works in academia, I know that that is bullshit.

 

Mining magnate Gina Rinehart is urging politicians to shift further to the right and adopt US President Donald Trump’s polices as she blames voters and the “left media” for the Coalition’s disastrous election result.

I honestly wonder if she just wants to ruin everything for her own benefit, or she is actually lost in the sauce.
