02.08.2025 00:21 β π 40 π 5 π¬ 3 π 0Back to dreading the weather. Gonna have to rip up my deck to see where stormwater is pooling, as panicking every time the daily level hits 50ml and engages overflow seepage is doing my head in.

Buy for a dollar, sell for two is great advice from very savvy businessman Prop Joe. Not buy for $23.5m, tip in tens of millions more, then sell for a dollar. Looking at you, Discovery.

11.07.2025 07:41 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Itβs been good until now! Think something failed and triggered pooling and cascading. Complete ass that should be solveable. again.

Meanwhile parties get to object to release, arguing typically without applicant being present or aware. In 80% of cases I cover (civil at High Court) application typically rejected a couple of months later.
