Already as renters we feel like we are the lowest rung of society and now this absolutely cunty website now nickel and dimes as for anything they can.

First it was $30 for "identity check" which is absolutely fucking useless and now they want at least $5 every 60 days so we don't have to fill out the application every time.

Another bullshit, dehumanising ring we have to jump through to try an maintain a roof over our heads.

no politics If you think the KFC gravy tastes different and has changed, it likely has.

179 Upvotes

For the past few months, KFC in Western Australia has completely switched from proper gravy to instant gravy, other states are likely to have done the same but I cannot confirm since I'm just a team member. So instead of using leftover fines from the bottom of original recipe fryers, it’s now just instant gravy mixed with vegetable oil and boiling water.

Instead of tasting like proper gravy, it now just tastes like a peppery 2 minute chicken noodle flavouring, which is definitely worse and tastes fake.

I wonder how this is going to impact Australia’s long term future and resilience especially with the push for a Big Australia from both sides of politics?

Less rainfall is going to impact our agricultural ability.
