Vote #1 Kim Huynh’s answer to What are the pros and cons of living in Australia specifically in Melbourne? This will be rather more superficial. Pro Melbourne: Lots of parkland. Good public transport system (so long as you’re commuting to and from the CBD) Critical mass of culture in general Excellent foodie culture Excellent sporting […]
Not on TWs, but on 2K by Nick Nicholas on Opɯdʒɯlɯklɑr In Exile Anyway. I’m not writing about the quill here, I’ve said too much already. But just as Jordan has just hit 20K followers with no quill, I have just hit 2K followers, with no quill. https://opuculuk.quora.com/Not-o… Uri Granta: How about a drawing of […]
Another data point: Routinely served to tourists, as an exotic offering. Like crocodile is. Available in gourmet restaurants on occasion, as an exotic offering. I’ve had it two or three times. The last time, in an Ethiopian tagine. Available in supermarkets, but not plentiful in supermarkets. Very plentiful as pet food. Very lean meat, so […]
Actual lesbians have answered this question, and now, despite my better judgement, so will I.

Question answered: How is telecommuting working for you? The plural of anecdote is Quora answers. Herewith mine. I worked for 3 years physically in a job that many of you will have already worked out by now, and 14 more telecommuting. The only way I could bear to keep working on that job was by […]
Hieraŭ? Nu, hieraŭ estis dimanĉo, do ripoztago. Kaj mi pli-malpli ripozis, laŭ mia kutimiĝinta maniero. Mi iris kun la edzino por matenmanĝo ĉe franca dolĉejo, kie ni kutimas dum la semajnofino. Mi tie legis du el la tri gazetoj de la urbo, kaj plendis kiel kutime pri la faŝismo de tiu kiun posedas Rupert Murdoch. […]
In my experience, Perth by far. Enough that the South African presence in Perth is very visible: it’s one of the largest ethnic subgroups there. (Perth has not had the same level of Mediterranean or Asian migration as Sydney or Melbourne.) South African restaurants are common there, and very uncommon in Melbourne (though I’ve still […]
As all the other answers have said, there is just too broad a spectrum of views within the American Democrat party for us to speak of an average Democrat.
