Currently on the #goldcoast for #aussies surf life-saving 2025. Stopped to look at the local skatepark and had the privilege to watch Chloe Covell practise for the upcoming #xgames. Suffered an embarrassing dad moment when my daughter almost collided on her roller blades https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/30/style/tony-hawk-vert-skateboarding-olympics.html?searchResultPosition=2
@keira_reckons the work is much appreciated although it does seem overkill as most SLSC clubs are becoming quite adaptive to coping with increasing erosion. We are heading up to the gold coast for #aussies 2025. https://sls.com.au/all-systems-go-for-the-2025-australian-surf-life-saving-championships/

I have the webcam of #Sydney 's #CorpseFlower on in the background today. It's amazing, it's opening up as we watch! I'm so glad the #Aussies are enjoying it.

Uranium dump sites need an educated board to approve NOT a military officer.

The Japanese government is exploiting Australia's gas #resources, leaving #Aussies with exorbitant #gas prices while #Japan profits by reselling the gas, and the Australian government is complicit in hiding this #scam from the public. #auspol #fossilfuels #ResourceTaxation #resourcetax

Today's vague #linguistic musing is how rudeness is a bi-directional process.
Take the "No worries" dichotomy, where people my age and #aussies generally speaking consider it a polite phatic expression.
Older people often consider it rude because you are (apparently) implying that there might have been a worry about helping them, and to them, said help was obligatory.
This conception of rudeness is super interesting because it doesn't matter how the speaker intended it. It's rude because the listener decided it was, which is in accordance with rudeness's definition of a fact threatening act... But not actually what the speaker intended?
In fact, people who say "no worries* point out that they do consider requests for help to be interruptions and thus potentially quite rude; they're assuring the requester that they did not rudely interrupt them.
So one party is genuinely being polite and helps the other party. The second party gets in high dudgeon about having their face threatened.
