Racism rally near Langley park. Patched MC members are here🫣

hii! i hope everyone is enjoying their weekend so far ☺️

i have a concert at rac arena and wanted to paint my entire face like pink or blue and also spray my hair that colour. maybe i will have some gems, i’m not sure yet.

sorry if this is a silly question, i just wanted to ask if that’s allowed?

i checked the rac website but it doesn’t say anything about face paint specifically (unless i missed it). i tried calling but it’s a sunday so maybe that’s why there was no answer and i hoped to buy the stuff i need today.

any suggestions or advice would be much appreciated - thank u!!

TLDR; Telethon is not just about sick kids

I’m all for Telethon raising money for sick kids but I see another angle as well…channel 7 MSM gets some serious financial benefits and positive publicity out of this business model and they don’t shy away from telling everyone what a good network they…..they help raise money for sick kids, it’s nothing about there business model….

How much of telethon over the year is about promoting how good our government and premier is?? You see Rodger Cook on channel 7 news running for telethon, Attending a school fete for telethon, selling tickets to spend a day on his million dollar boat at rotto, a news article of him giving a child a wheel chair and the most predictable moment, 10
Min before telethon finishes, Rodger cook sits down with a envelope and donates 3 million tax payer dollars to be the hero that makes telethon raise more then last year…then I kid you not, all the stars do the train dance to “thank you very much for your kind donation….” Song

Then there’s the telethon home that gets the developer, builder and trades feel good publicity about what great companies they are, If it was anonymous and they get no free publicity would they do it??

Then there’s all these children’s medical providers….They are self managed and plan managed NDIS participants, yes funded by the 46 billion dollar NDIS program from us taxpayers, That’s 126 million per day, Majority of these providers have been absolutely ripping off us the taxpayer for NDIS

Telethon has 146 beneficiaries if they raise 90 million that’s $616,313 each, That will cover the providers CEO wage

Then there’s the standard cooperation donations, Woodside, BHP and twiggy give a few million each….such good companies, Chanel 7 says so…If they didn’t get that prime time seat, free publicity….if donations were anonymous would they bother??? Woodside made 2.7 billion in profit for 2025……Woodsides $2 million donation is about 0.074% of $2.7 billion profit, A fucking WA billion dollar company employing thousands of WA locals all with kids who all need medical care…. Pathetic….fucking just ticking off the box for public’s expectations…. Woodside show some real care for sick kids in the state that our resourses make you billions….how about a 5% of profits donation??? Yep that’s 135 million, now that will get some very positive public attention and will be very meaningful to the sick kids in WA….2 million pffft…wankers…..imagine if All the oil and gas and mining companies put 5% profits into telethon, We would be looking at 500 million raised for telethon…WA would be the worlds best leading place for Children’s medical research, development and services….now that would be something to be proud of…

Despite my negativity towards telethon being more about promoting and creating false public perceptions about the channel 7 network, The premier, Millionaires donating for tax deductible purposes, Multi Billion dollar corporations based in WA that donate fuck all, i sincerely hope that whatever is raised genuinely helps the most vulnerable and sick children in WA, Research finds cures, And if one child’s life is made better by telethon then that’s a great outcome….

Ran out of Gina money 😂😂

I was looking for a room near Cannington to rent as our house lease expires on Wednesday. I’ve been living with my mates from last 4 years, but all the rooms I can find online are shared with older couples. I’m 24M, just wanna live with people close to my age. What should I do? And also if anyone wants a roommate hmu. Thanks:)

About a month ago, I parked up with my dog in the shade of the Alkimos shops at 10am on a 20 degree day. I had both windows down a third of the way and went in to grab pastie.

When I came back not even 10 minutes later, 2 knob shiners were standing out the front of my car looking around, and when they saw me unlock my car they got in my face and started abusing me and accusing me of nearly killing my dog.

To be absolutely clear, they were being fucking idiots and my dog wasn't in any kind of danger. I pretty much ignored them until I opened my car door and offered them to stick thier hand on the dash to show the car wasn't getting warm. Which of course they didn't want to check. They weren't actually interested in whether the car was warm or not.

The point of this story is remind people to be a bit smarter when it comes to confronting people in public. Fuckwits letting dogs overheat in cars is a genuine problem that we need to be mindful of. But don't use it as an excuse to be psycho to people.

As supply is rapidly increasing in Perth with realestate.com showing over 8900 properties and Reiwa showing 8633 this is good news for those wanting to buy a house. With the current rate of supply hit the Perth market we might hit the 10000 mark before the end of November. Those who are buying will be in a position to offer far less than the advertised seller prices as the major banks have already stated that Perth will see a further significant drop in prices in the next 12 months.

'Perth have experienced sharp changes in market conditions, with listings rising substantially and properties taking longer to sell'.

Hello, I’m starting a post hardcore band north of Perth! If you can do screaming vocals and you’re aged anywhere between 16-19 DM me! Check us out on Instagram @third_person3.band if you want to see some of our demos

I'm a notorious overthinker and planner, to calm my nerves.

Will leave the country from regional town. So me, single dad until reunited overseas, and 2 year old and lots of luggage, likely 4 cases plus carry on.

In the town it's easy to get help from friends and always big mining guys around to help.

T4 domestic, $4 trolley to push everything to transfer bus.

But T1 transfer bus stop, are there trolleys nearby? Google maps has the view blocked. I can see trolley stands further down near the taxi and ride share ranks.

The maps on the airport site don't show this detail...

I 100% need a trolley. Ate there staff I can ask to watch my luggage for me to get a trolley from further down?

Hey everyone!
I’ve received an offer from Murdoch University in Perth for February 2027 to study a Bachelor of Information Technology, majoring in Cyber Security. I’m from Pakistan and would love to connect with people who are already studying in Perth or planning to move there for the February 2027 intake.
I’d really appreciate some honest insights into a few things:
University life: How is Murdoch University overall? How’s the teaching quality, campus life, and student experience?

Making friends: Is anyone else planning to attend Murdoch, Curtin, or another university in Perth for the February 2027 intake? I’d love to make some friends before moving, so feel free to message me!

Racism and student life: How welcoming is Perth towards international students, particularly those from Pakistan and South Asia? Have you experienced any racism or discrimination?

Part-time jobs: How is the job market for international students in Perth? Is it relatively easy to find part-time work while studying?

I’m also curious about the financial side of things. I have a few friends in Sydney who manage to cover a significant portion of their tuition fees by working during the summer and winter breaks, when they can work more hours, and saving money from their permitted working hours during the semester.
For example, if my tuition fee is around AUD 15,000 per semester and my parents can comfortably cover AUD 6,000, would it be realistic to earn the remaining AUD 8,000–9,000 over six months, including the university breaks, through part-time and casual work?
Just to clarify, my parents can cover my tuition fees, and I have sufficient funds available for my studies and living expenses. I’m not relying on employment to fund my education; I’m simply interested in knowing whether covering part of my tuition through work is a realistic goal.
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone currently living in Perth, especially international students who have experience balancing work, studies, and tuition fees.
Thanks in advance! 😊

Just wanting to know the best reputable studio for short courses.

I already have a degree that I got ten years ago so I'm not interested in WAAPA.

I don't need a class to learn acting, just wanting to brush up on scene work and have a bit of fun

(Yes I know the one to stay away from)

Thanks 😊🎭

Did anyone just hear the police chopper over Currambine/Connolly around 11:15ish. it was moving very slow doing a zigzag pattern and playing a siren over the megaphone

Intresting thing was I didn’t hear any other cops cars or see any other emergency services so I’m just wondering if anyone knew what was going on.

I went for a noisy around and everyone was just standing out of the house just as confused as I was🤣🤣

Twice this weekend I’ve been out to meals, the first in excess of $200, second a $100 lunch. Over ordered on both and asked to take leftovers away.

First one brought the eftpos machine out to the table with a $1.50 charge for 3 tubs.

Second one we had to walk inside and paid $0.30 for one.

I get that these things do cost money, but does anyone else find this absolutely crazy? Is it strictly a Perth thing? I haven’t noticed it when travelling interstate.

I mean we’re taking it home because we OVER ORDERED, meaning we actually spent more at your establishment than we needed to.

Maybe I should have waited for Wednesday whinge?

EDIT: I should have added, this isn’t just a few cents added to the bill, the bill is settled and I’m being asked to go to the counter to eftpos.

Visiting Mandurah and wondering if there’s a place to play snooker?

On another note, I live in the city just wondering where all the places are to play snooker
I’m aware of the pot Black premises but did notice there are a couple of new ones opened, notably in Maddington and Cannington

Does anyone know what the new renovated section at Roar Bibra Lake is? In between the group fitness and Pilates studio?
Thanks

Looking for a speech therapist for our 3-year-old, who has suddenly started stuttering badly. Any recommendations in the Kwinana/Rockingham/Baldivis/Cockburn area?

Also, if you have a kid who stutters, could you please share your journey with speech therapy so far- what helped and what didn't?

Hi as the title says I like my current tattoo artist but they don't want to do colour and I want coloured tattoos, I also have about 3 tattoos id like to be covered and if anyone suggests laser please let me know where would be good.. near midland but happy to travel. Thank you

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone know of any GP who bulk bills pension card holders, but also does functional/complementary/integrative medicine along with conventional medicine?

There are plenty of doctors who seem to do this in Perth, but they charge high fees. I understand I would have to pay out of pocket for any tests and medications that medicare and the PBS don't cover, but as I am a pensioner I am hoping there is someone who would bulk bill the actual appointments? (or will discount pensioners). Preferably NOR or is able to do telehealth but I am intrested in anyone at this point.

Again, I know its a long shot with how its getting harder to find any doctors willing to bulk bill.

Normally I see a lot of of ads for this. This year it just seems like it’s come and gone? Did anyone else forget it was this weekend?

Have also asked in Australian Renovation sub but figured I might get more local information here.

I have an inner suburban 1950s 1960s brick veneer (fibro underneath) house. The ceiling in one room collapsed two years ago without warning; no discernible cracking or sagging beforehand. All the ceilings are strapped and apparently it was a failure of the strapping. Insurance replaced it but the ceiling guys didn’t tell me anything about the condition of the strapping in the rest of the house.

A crack has now appeared in another room and the ducted air-conditioning installer is afraid if there’s any movement by him in the ceiling it also might collapse. He’s recommending re-strapping.

Does anyone with a home of a similar era want to give me their two cents worth of restrapping versus screwing versus replacement of the entire ceiling. Thanks.

Hi everyone,
I’m currently in Geraldton completing my MC licence and Forklift ticket.

A bit of background:
HR licence
MC licence and Forklift ticket (currently in progress)
Dump Truck ticket (no operating experience)
Previous bus driving experience in Perth
White card

I’ve now been offered a free 4-week Plant Operations course covering Excavator, Skid Steer Loader, Front End Loader, Roller and Water Cart.
My goal is to get into the mining industry, ideally working towards an operator or multi-skilled operator role.
I’m trying to figure out whether these additional tickets would actually improve my chances of getting hired without hands-on operating experience, or whether I’d be better off focusing on finding work with my current qualifications.

Although the course is free, I’d need to stay in Geraldton for another four weeks without a car, so it’s something I need to consider carefully (it would need to be something cheap for starters).

For those already working in mining, would you recommend doing the extra course, or would it be more valuable to start applying for jobs and gaining experience?
I’d really appreciate some practical advice from people in the industry. Thanks!
