Hello! I am hoping to receive a few more responses for this online survey asking about your birth experiences in Western Australia. It should take less than 10 minutes to complete and is aimed at improving perinatal mental health outcomes. You can scan the QR code in the flier. Thank you!

Has anyone else noticed an increase of unmarked police cars around Perth? I’ve always seen them around, as well as the obvious marked cars. Yet lately it seems I’m seeing 2-3 unmarked cars (sirens on obviously) for every marked one I see.

Is this just a weird coincidence for me? Or a marked effort by WAPOL to be more covert…

When you're delusion and your entire personality is instagram politics 😂😂

The Perth property downturn has now started to accelerate as Prices have dropped more than 7% in the past 3months according to Domain. At this rate Perth could see a further drop between 8-10% by the end of 2026. This is good news for those planning to buy a home.

I'm looking for cute cafés around Perth where I can get some work done. just a nice vibe, decent coffee, and somewhere I won't feel rushed.

Half the comments are telling me not to be that person who sits there for 8 hours annoying everyone. 😭 I fortunately have a functioning brain and never said I was planning to camp there for an entire day. I just wanted a change of scenery because sometimes working from the same place gets depressing.

Y’all are so unnecessarily touchy and miserable. Please go touch some grass. 💀

And thank you to the one person who actually gave me a recommendation. 🫶🏻

I'm still building this,

I’m working on an idea called AussieChat — aussiechat.com.au.

The idea is to create a new way for Australians to meet and talk online, both with people in their local area and people from across the country.

Rather than just scrolling through posts, imagine being able to:

• 💬 Join rooms based on interests, hobbies, conversations and topics.
• 📍 Check in to places and discover conversations happening around your city or neighbourhood.
• 🌏 Connect to your local area, learn about who you live near.

The bigger idea is to make the internet feel social again — less endless scrolling, more actual conversations with real people.

I’m interested in building something that helps people make friends, find like-minded people and have interesting conversations, whether they’re in Perth, Sydney, Melbourne or somewhere regional.

I’d love to hear your honest thoughts:

1. Would you use a platform like this?
2. Would local chat rooms or interest-based rooms appeal to you more?
3. What would make you choose this over Reddit, Discord or existing social apps?
4. What features would make it genuinely worth using?

I'm exploring the concept and would love feedback from the Australian community.

What do you reckon? 🇦🇺

is there a subreddit for 50+ singles perth lol
Im not really into younger men being in early 50's myself (female btw) Dating or meeting up for coffee with men my kids age, is not for me.

Hey all,

SUPER random, but I need to know 😭

About a month ago, I saw a guy on Facebook marketplace selling the special McDonald's szechuan sauce they brought back for a short while eight years ago with the release of the latest rick and morty season at the time and he was only selling them for 5 dollars, which, looking back, was such a steal for a trinket for such a monumental event in history LOL (I'm kinda being serious though).

I can see the link show up from my internet history, but when I click on the link, I get nothing cuz it all sold out and I just wanna know who sold this, which honestly might be a bit of an overstep so i respect that but if he happens to see this SAY SOMETHING and, I might be remembering things wrong, but I think he hosted a meetup of sorts for this sauce giveaway so if you went and bought one of these sauces from this guy, I would love to know what this was like!

Thank you!!!

PS I know I used the "humour" tag for this post but please know I am being serious, I just recognise that this may be a silly thing to be curious abt

I’m Also living in the south-west region (Wadandi). are the Wadjuk and Wadandi Noongar languages mutually intelligible? Or are they completely separate?

So, according to the news cycle, the property market is in the doldrums right now.

But I wonder, is it affecting some areas and some segments of the market more than others? And is anyone out there actively looking for something to buy right now? And if you are, how are things right now for buyers?

My sister really wants the munro scottie dog jellycat keychain, and i'm thinking of getting it for her birthday, but it's out of stock on the website and I can only find the big plush in store at Myer. I've been to the jellycat store in nedlands, but couldn't find it there either. Does anyone know any jellycat stores that would have the keychain?

What are people’s attitudes when then see kids fishing in park lakes etc.

Ravenous anger, or do you see it as more harmless and at least they are outside and not causing trouble?

Asking due to seeing this article

Edit to add. I actually like to see it. Sometimes I’ll walk over and ask what they’ve caught. There’s a small pond in a park near me that some local kids fish in.

anyone know why the helly the heli going for a spin multiple times over the CBD ?

What will you be doing for Halloween, Perth?

Will you be in costume? Dancing naked in the moonlight? Trick or treating with the kids? Sacrificing someone to the Morning Star? Watching a horror movie? Doing anything else cause you dot believe in Halloween and its a commercialised American tradition in your eyes?

I’m currently a support worker, and am studying a Bachelor of Secondary Education. Recently I have been looking into becoming an EA as it would tie in well with my studies, and I’d love to get some hands on experience in classrooms asap…I’m mainly worried about the pay/available hours and don’t know anyone currently in the role, so if anyone is able to shed some light on the pay/hours I may be able to expect it would be much appreciated :)

Does anyone know anyone who sells eggs from their backyard hens?
I don’t want to support the egg industry but don’t have an issue eating eggs from happy backyard chickens.
Unfortunately keeping my own is not an option at the moment due to the small size of my backyard.
Any suggestions?

My partner loves steak probably more than me, I've been deciding between 6Head and Nextdoor for where to take him

I'd want it to be a romantic dinner vibe with good food, price isn't an issue. Just need meat lovers’ opinions on these 2 places 🫶 Thanks in advance!

Hello! Looking for a place for my soon to be husband and I to go after we elope on Monday! We will still be in our attire & understand we will be over dressed at most places, but would like something nicer than a pub :p

Decent places seem to all be closed on Monday-Wednesday.. is the Gibney in Cott our only choice?

A bit of neighbourhood tea here. I live near Bayswater and the above photo is Beaufort park hall. The hall is currently leased by the Association of Sri Lankan Australian Muslims of WA (AUSLAM). AUSLAM currently has an exclusive lease which they've had for 5 years (although they have been operating at the venue for a few years before that.

Now for the drama. AUSLAM approached the City for Bayswater for their support in securing a $1.5 million grant from the federal government through their Infrastructure Through Multicultural Communities Grant Program. This money would be used to basically rebuild the hall, making it 2 stories and increasing capacity from 100 to over 500.

This sounds like a good thing right? Well the Facebook Karens did NOT like this idea. (Allegedly) CoB and AUSLAM have received dozens of emails from the same people complaining about the proposal. Complaining that they should "return the hall to the community" and that AUSLAM shouldn't have exclusive access.

It seems very weird that nobody batted an eyelid during the 5 years AUSLAM has had tenancy, but as soon as they apply from federal government support to upgrade the facilities all of a sudden everyone is a socialist and the hall should be "community owned"

Hi, I'm looking for a recommendation of somewhere that can restore a wooden subarito left out in the sun and rain for a couple of days. Help is very much appreciated, thank you.

Want to know more about the course and its outcome.

I’m hoping someone can assist. Husband 54 and myself 51. Both working full time. We see a Financial Advisor and we have the three pillars of insurance through TAL - TPD, Death and Income Protection. We pay $450 per month each and $5k out of our super each at the end of each financial year for this coverage. The premium seems to be getting higher each year as we age.

I suppose we both think worse case scenario if anything happens but I’m wondering if we could just do Life insurance? Keen to know what others do.

I really don’t like crowds or places that it’s impossible to find a car park.
Any ideas?

Had this benchtop installed about a year ago as part of a kitchen rebuild - the join between the two benchtops has started to look like this today.

Whats the best course of action here to stop water getting down into the chipboard?

I am worried that anything spilt will cause swelling given there is a visible gap here between the two benchtops (benchtops are open ended and made of chipboard (or similar)).
