I wonder how many other people like me live in Melbourne.
What suburb lad?
>>85272653most of you guys keep moving up to queensland, maybe we can cut a deal and deport them all back so you can have more anon buddies
>>85272653There's an Australia thread on /soc/, check there.
>>85272658Southwest. You?>>85272779>queenslandProbably because it's less you know what.>>85272783I know, not much luck, sadly.
inner north reporting for duty
Melbourne>We've doubled our population in 20 years in Melbourne because gdp must go up. Of course this leads to increased homelessness but at least big business, real estate and finance are richer>Chinese and Indians buy up all the million dollar shitbox abspestos properties and try to rent them out to us for $700-800 a week but none of us will pay that so they sit dormant while homelessness skyrockets>Zero negotiating power. AUKUS means nothing. Our strategic location means nothing>go to the CBD and there's basically no white people>Aussies gave up and just live on benefits. many people causally vape, cocaine, ice, acid and speed to cope and escape>constantly told "If Australia doesn't import Chinese and Indians, it will fall behind">hordes of methed out homeless people in Fitzroy, Carlton, and Campbellfield>gangs in Melton, Werribee, Sunshine, Laverton>Knife attacks and stabbings are normalized>lost it's car industry and is turning into a service based economy with money from the government. We don't make anything anymore, just sell it all to China>letting in 100k a month into Australia too keep the economy going but our standard of living declines in the process>you need to inherit money to have a nice house>the cbd is worse than most suburbs>multiculturalism doesn't work because the extreme diversity here makes everyone hyperaware of their roots>outer suburbs of Melbourne where it would take an hour to walk to the nearest train station, so you absolutely need a car to function>Melbourne arsonists and firebombing becoming normalized >paying 60% of income on rent>Australia's white collar job market is trash compared to the US and Canada. We massively underpay white collar workers in this country. The only group that gets paid decently are doctors, surgeons, psychs and other medical professionals because they all have professional guilds that advocate for their members>Our population is much easier to replace as it's relatively low
>>85272653Dreamcast...Soul
>>85272907it is strange seeing the white leftwing aussies advocate so heavily for immigration into australia and calling anyone against it in any way a 'racist' and then the indians and chinese who come here are extremely focussed on capitalism and amassing wealth, properties, etc meanwhile the rich leftwing people are aging and the younger are poor... But the rich indians/chinese are basically have plot-armour that the leftwing white australians cannot touch and so the leftwing white australians have fought to import their political enemies who are now also impossible to be criticized
Why are so many Victorians moving to qld?
>>85272941You hit the nail on the head. Why don't aussies just start a revolution and deport/eliminate everyone? It seems like a very simple solution.
>>85273017>You hit the nail on the head. Why don't aussies just start a revolution and deport/eliminate everyone? It seems like a very simple solution.Australia is heavily dependent on China and India especially in the CBD
>>85273017there is very little political will for such a thing.
>>85272901What's it like? My grandfather lived there. He came here in the 50s and still can hardly speak English kek.>>85272907>>85272941>>85272974It's why I have no friends. Lots of young people here are gleeful about being replaced.From what I've heard, Queenslanders are a little bit less tolerant of having literally everything being taken away from them, so I guess it's nicer to live there.>>85272911It's the only pre-7th gen console we still have (apart from stuff we bought second hand).I like your screenshot, is that a PC port of a Sonic game or an emulator? Which game is it?
>>85273084haha, classic wog tale.I like it here, where I am it's right in between the hipstery gentrified areas with all the bars/venues/coffee shops/bookstores and whatnot, and the calmer, grassier lebgreekitaloturkville suburbs where there's a fuck ton of redevelopment and every second house is now a duplex lol. I enjoy the best of both worlds desu
i'm also from melbourne.>is that a PC port of a Sonic game or an emulator? Which game is it?I believe that's a screenshot from the game Sonic Shuffle for the Dreamcast.
>>85272653There are exactly 43 robots in Melbourne
>>85272907>so they sit dormant while homelessness skyrocketsToo true. Real estate buddy of mine says "Chinese guys treat houses like blacks treat shoes."They buy property just to own it and do nothing with it
>>85273635Sounds pretty nice.>>85273656>Sonic ShuffleYeah, mine is, but I was referring to >>85272911's image. Looks like Adventure 1 or maybe 2.>>85273666I wouldn't be surprised. I imagine most people in this city are on Instagram and other low-effort websites where not much reading is required. Hell, even 4chan is kinda fast-paced once you get used to it.
i actually met my gf (both of us are from melbourne) off of 4chan. it's a small world!
>>85272653There's a lot of gay people in Melbourne.
>>85273987Man that's great, I wish the best for you two.I hope it happens to me. I actually DID meet a girl from Canada on /soc/ 12 months ago who is now living in Melbourne, but as soon as she came down she said her parents didn't like her talking to a stranger and blocked me. Can you believe that lol? Twelve months of our lives spent messaging daily and calling and discussing our future together just for it to end with a wet fart.And now I have to sit here knowing she's living in my city.But, I won't lose hope. There's someone out there for me.
>>85272653What are your thoughts on Iggy Azalea? What are some aussie foods u like? Why are u a robot? I thought australians were social and shit
>>85274438>Iggy AzaleaThe rapper? I haven't thought about her in like ten years, why?>aussie foodsHeinz beans on toast, pies, sausage rolls, the works.>Why are u a robot?Well due to many genetic and developmental issues (mixed with lockdowns happening during my mid-teen years) I never really 'clicked' with the mainstream format.>socialTry to imagine, I dunno, NYC or LA or San Fran but some people have slightly Aussie accents. That's more or less what Melbourne is.
>>85272653Repping DarwinYou fuckers from down south need to stay down there and out of our parking spaces
>>85274910>ReppingKeko>out of our parking spacesWhat's the context of this?
>>85274936There's too many damn people nowadays and the city infrastructure can't accommodate for it. Try parking at the woolies in Darwin City. ALL the spots are taken every damn time. Can't do shit in the city, if I can't avoid it I just uber there.
>>85274910Japan should have bombed you guys off the map
>>85274983Who are the culprits over there? Here it's mainly Indians and east Asians.
