Where do you get your news?

Looking for recommendations for good news Apps / Sites / Outlets.

I use The Guardian sometimes but find it too editorialised, ABC for other things, maybe I need to just set up my preferences.

I'm not interested in anything pay walled unless it's particularly good.

Tried Ground news, wasn't impressed with the coverage and the summaries.

Funnily enough as much as I find Sky"News" to be a steaming pile of shit. Their straight news stuff can actually be pretty good.

Reddit used to be a decent source of aggregated info but has largely gone to shit.

Toilet brushes

A question for the housekeepers in hotels

I have noticed that hotels like Rydges and Mercure don’t have any toilet brushes in them where as low star ones do

Is they a reason for this

Thanks

Heat or humidity?

Hey everyone, was having a chat to my colleague this morning who said she's moved to Perth, from Brisbane, and that this past summer was hot in Perth but the humidity absolutely kills her in Brisbane.

She said she doesn't mind the Perth heat cause it's a dry hot summer. I grew up in far north QLD so I'm used to the humidity, but moved to Perth to be closer to family again, the Perth dry heat is kinda nice too.

It made me curious - would you rather a 40 degree dry heat or 30 degree humid heat?

Easter 90s ad

So I really vividly remember watching a particular Easter ad in the 90s as a kid but I cannot seem to find it. In the ad, it was an Easter egg hunt and eggs were found in the garden and in ferns etc and I just remember it seeming so magical. It was to the extent that I asked my parents to hide eggs outside one Easter. Does anyone else remember this ad, or know where I can find it online? I can’t seem to find it anywhere, but I do remember it making Easter egg hunts just seem magic.

Cadbury’s Dairy Milk solid mini Easter eggs are the best chocolate.

I don’t care, solid mini eggs are as good as it gets. Hollow eggs just don’t cut it! I’m ploughing my way through a 440g bag, just saying!!
