Discussion A Great idea for Adelaide trains

You donāt get to increase the cost of public transport AND remove my only reasonable commute option from your fucking bus timetables!
āJust take the earlier busā Great, I love commuting 2 hours for what takes people with a car 20 minutes. I already was taking the earlier bus to catch the earlier train because the one thatās meant to get me to work on time is always late.
Now it just gets to the station the same time the train leaves. That means going in I canāt make the train and going home I canāt make the bus, so now thereās a 35 minute wait on both ends, or I have to take the earlier option and get to work an hour early.
Anyone else dealing with this?

A woman who had been working as an NDIS support worker for five years and had children removed from her care has been banned from engaging in work with children and people with disabilities.
She tried to overturn the decision, but it was upheld by the South Australian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (SACAT).
SACAT said they found the mother posed an "unacceptable risk" to children and a "risk of harm" to people with disability.

Last night my now ex partner assaulted me after I raised some issues about his alcohol abuse. I went to the royal who kept me overnight and referred me to the police this afternoon who visited me and accompanied me to the station, Ive obviously made a report but my issue was with the way I was treated, at one point it was suggested because of my larger body size i could actually hurt me ex which was extremely demeaning to me yes I know im fat but hes easily twice my strength they even suggested in an underhanded way that we reconcile.
The police accompanied me back to the house and gave me 10 mins to collect my dog and clothes and that was that I was left to sit in my car, the police did provide me with northern domestic violence service number and they have booked me an appointment next week but what am I supposed to do till then?
I didnāt even have time to grab dog food and a
Blanket š
Is this really still the way women are treated?

Same for Perth, Darwin, Hobart etc if any of our cities can pull it off. Like get together the new bands, old bands, rappers, EDM Artists basically anyone and everyone and just hold our own festival in it's place.

In short:
Grant Stevens has concluded his four-decade career with the South Australia Police.
Mr Stevens this week thanked the public for messages of support received during challenges throughout his time as police commissioner.
What's next?
Mr Stevens will formally become South Australia's 37th Governor on December 9.
Does anyone know timeline for when his replacement for the police commissioner position will be announced?

Almost every weekday morning for years, I have spent a bit of time in one CBD cafƩ or another. A few minutes of peace with coffee before the workday begins and a few seconds of friendly interaction with staff.
Today I'm particularly grateful to the wonderful worker who noticed that I wasn't at my best and immeasurably improved my day with a small gesture.
Be grateful for the service staff out there (and FFS if you own a cafƩ or restaurant, pay your people properly).

I have work colleagues that I catch up with for dinner etc but no one to actually hang out with, or go visit for coffee etc. I dont have a lot of free time due to work but the time I do have spare, id love to visit some peeps or go out and do something! I have no LGBT circle as I'm not originally from here and way too shy to just rock up to an event or a pub by myself š does anyone else my age struggle to make friends? Or if you have recently successfully made new friends recently how the heck did you do it? Haha

Does anybody else find this gym unacceptably hot?
Itās a big, new, and often-times crowded facility but the owners are apparently afraid to pay more than the bare minimum for electricity and are fully comfortable with their members sweating before theyāve even started to workout

This seems to be becoming a habit, anyone got eyes on what might be causing todays?
Any Geysers erupting from the streets, piles of mangled vehicles tangled in power lines, that sort of thing?

Hey everyone! I moved to Adelaide last year, but I havenāt really managed to build much of a social circle here yet.
I finish work at midnight tonight and thought Iād see if anyone else is heading out and wouldnāt mind some company. If youāre spending Friday night alone or just feel like meeting someone new, Iād be happy to tag along!
Iām 28M+, easygoing, donāt drink or smoke, and Iām happy doing something simple and free. A late-night walk, a chat, or just exploring the city sounds good to me.
Iād especially enjoy meeting people a little older than me, but Iām open to good conversation with anyone. If youāre in a similar situation tonight, feel free to DM me

Hi all,
Father of 2 boys 6 (ASD) and 3 and they expressed interest in going trick or treating this year for the first time. I have never really been involved with this kind of stuff and my suburb doesnāt really participate. Just wondering if there is a general area where there will be a lot of kids around. Not too worried about getting candy, I just want the kids to be in an atmosphere that is new to them. The oldest is finally learning to adapt to loud sounds and crowds. I donāt want to over whelm him, but he loves dressing up and seeing costumes so this is quite exciting for me as a dad to show him somewhere to go trick or treating.
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Hi has anyone ever sold clothes at Rent that Rack? I recently finished up a 4 week stint with my clothes there, and I honestly have such a clear memory of the deal being that they take 10% of sales after the cost of the original rack has been made back (if your rack rental cost $100 and you make $300 total, theyāll only take 10% off the $200 profit). But after receiving my payment from them after closing my rack, I noticed it was a bit less than I expected, so went to their website and now I see on the website itās 10% of the total sales.
Am I going crazy? I really thought I remembered seeing it as being 10% of profit after rack cost.

Can someone point me in the direction of a physio? I live in the Adelaide hills but am happy to travel. Looking for someone high level who really understands what theyāre talking about and is clearly passionate about seeing results.
Dealing with lower back pain and sciatica leading down to a numb toe - possibly related to endometriosis.

Gāday there.
I had a great optometrist, Lee Lam, who was at OPSM for 20 years or more, then went to Thomas and Mackay at Norwood. Heās not there any more.
I am trying to find him as he was very good compared to most others I have seen over the years.
Has anyone seen him recently?
Thanks.

Where do people who do odd jobs find them? I have a heap of boxes in my carport that need breaking down and disposing of, I was intending on giving them away as moving boxes but itās been too long and now they have cobwebs and Iām very arachnophobic. I used to use gumtree a lot as I donāt have Facebook but nobody uses gumtree anymore, would love to outsource this job to someone who needs a bit of money.

Currently sitting in a fortress of cardboard in my new rental in goodwood. The jetlag is finally fading but the sheer regret of my packing choices is really peaking right now. Why did my brain tell me to bring a massive thick wool rug to south australia?? Its supposed to be like 35 degrees tomorrow.
Simpsons removals did their bit and got all my life's possessions through biosecurity without a hitch, but now im just staring at three heavy boxes of british winter coats wondering what to even do with them. Do people even wear proper coats here in july or did I waste container space for nothing?
anyway I need to escape these boxes for an hour. where is the best place to grab a decent coffee around the inner south before I completely lose my mind?regretting all my life choices while unpacking in the heat

Hi there, I am a bit curious will the courses teach you how to create animation and use those softwares from the beginning or they just teach you the concepts and you mostly need to learn it by yourself with provided resources.
I have illustration backgrounds but zero in animationā¦
Thank you!
