##September 1960: Conveniently located on the outskirts of Asia, Australia occasionally thinks itself immune to the ravages of global conflict. Even in the darkest hours of the Second World War, Australia faced only a few Japanese air raids, escaping the grim fate of New Guinea and Southeast Asia. Yet as mankind enters a new decade, many Australians feel themselves as unsafe as they did in 1942. The radical, leftist dictatorship of Indonesia’s Sukarno has inked concerning deals with [Beijing](https://old.reddit.com/r/ColdWarPowers/comments/1pn8kmi/diplomacy_beijingjakarta_treaty_of_friendship/) and [Moscow](https://old.reddit.com/r/ColdWarPowers/comments/1ou5ema/diplomacy_indonesiansoviet...

Hi everyone, Our Google Business Profile (real estate agency in Phuket, Thailand) has been receiving a daily wave of suspicious reviews over the past week — mostly 3★ and 4★ with extremely generic comments like “Outstanding!”, “Amazing place!”, etc. The accounts often show abnormal patterns: multiple similar reviews posted across unrelated businesses and different countries within hours, suggesting automated or fake engagement rather than real customer experiences. Example review link: [https://maps.app.goo.gl/NRLHheWCS1dvEVER8](https://maps.app.goo.gl/NRLHheWCS1dvEVER8) We have already reported 15+ reviews in the last 10 days through the official GBP tools, but Google keep...

I saw Yeah, Me Too mentioned last week in a coffee shop discussion so I decided to try their delivery today. I hadn’t heard of them before but was intrigued. Fabulous. This may be the best coffee I’ve had in years. I bought the Uganda, Ethiopia and Papua New Guinea. Price was fair. More than grocery store, but fair for a small roaster. The smell makes me so happy and their service was great. I am trying to support our small local businesses as much as I can. Give these guys a try. It’s the little things that make our city great.

> “Come out ye Black And Tans / Come out and fight me like a man / Show your wife how you won medals down in Flanders / Tell her how the IRA made you run like **** away” — Irish rebel song by Dominic Behan, circa 1960. > “I keep my friends close, *and my enemies closer!*” — C. Montgomery Burns. A post made yesterday in this sub by [redacted], who claims to be from the Middle East in his flair, was the inspiration for this post. It got me thinking about a pattern of cultural disconnect I often see in this conflict, but seldom hear talked about in any detail. It’s my sense that this is a subject many people do not feel comfortable putting too fine a point on, or ...

Folks!!! Finally, after yet another year of working hard and/or hardly working and with much demand from the masses, I have yet another subject review for my second year of uni (I'll have to circle back with second year subjects since I didn't finish my second year media subjects). As a reminder for how I rate things, I use a scale from 1-10 with 5 being a perfectly average unnoteable subject with anything below 5 being mid and anything above it being a recommendation. Also, as was the case last year, completely happy to follow-up with any questions you have, am mostly just drinking beers and working for the next 4 months so Ive got time to respond. Hope this helps! Red Empire: T...

**What’s the Deal with U.F.O.s?** **Scientists consider whether we’ve been visited by aliens or their technology.** **By Matthew Hutson | The New Yorker** [Illustration by Lina Müller](https://preview.redd.it/6x60bzsilsnf1.jpg?width=2560&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b4329654698adb67d2c2c040552084202eb08f70) When I was growing up, I watched a lot of sci-fi movies about aliens that come to Earth. The extraterrestrials in popular culture, however, always looked so familiar that I found them far-fetched. What are the chances that E.T., the Predator, or *ALF* would develop arms and legs, a humanlike face, and opposable thumbs? Perhaps as a result, I associated alien li...

**Chattanooga Metropolitan Area, Tennessee, USA** On Tuesday, a heavy rainfall hit Chattanooga and the surrounding areas, causing widespread flooding. In one day, the city received 6.42 inches of rain (more than 16 cm) — the second-highest amount on record. This is almost twice the monthly average for August. The hardest hit areas were Fort Oglethorpe, East Ridge, Brainerd, and East Brainerd. Sections of Interstate 24, roads in the area of Belvoir Avenue, North Terrace, and Germantown Road were flooded. Traffic on key highways was paralyzed for several hours. Rescuers carried out dozens of evacuations of residents and motorists, including from two apartment complexes in Fort Oglethorpe,...

Analogue is an American company that manufactures in China but still ships out of the US. Their hardware is **designed in Seattle** but **manufactured in China**, imported into the U.S., then shipped globally. You should expect 80-100% taxes on the sale price of the console, especially if shipped with UPS. UPS currently heavily taxes Canadians importing goods in a really shady way as i've discovered recently when ordering goods from the US. **This is taken directly from their website:** # Shipping All shipments are fully insured and tracked. Our warehousing and logistics partners operate with a stringent shipping and handling protocol. All orders are packed with high quality mater...

Hey everyone, I’m an independent artist from Papua New Guinea. This one leans on clean delivery, rhythm, and a pure rap feel — no gimmicks, just bars and flow. Would love for you to check it out and drop any thoughts. 👉 Here's the song 🎵 https://youtu.be/UknpokxhP3w

(This is a long one) Lottie Matthews continues to be one of the most compelling and layered characters on *Yellowjackets*, alongside Shauna. What makes Lottie particularly fascinating is the depth and continuity of her development across timelines. She is one of the few characters we get to know through a variety of perspectives, with each revelation offering substantive new context that invites us to reinterpret what we thought we knew about her. That kind of narrative coherence—where past and present versions of a character actually inform each other—is rare in a series this sprawling. (And frankly, it's the kind of narrative attention that characters like Tai should also be rece...

RULE 101: Use a hyphen to join "ex" to a word. Example(s): Our ex-mayor remains on the town board as advisor. His ex-wife is going to remarry.

Example(s): selfhood self-confidence Note: Selfhood, selfsame, selfless, and unselfconscious are not hyphenated. RULE 103: Use a hyphen to join a prefix to a proper noun or number even if the number is spelled out.
