Re: I’m very fearful about the impact of this referendum vote

we play this game with the Lego, we have a bunch of printed pictures of stuff we have made (car, bird etc) super super basic stuff. And one person picks the picture and has to explain to the builder which peices they have to use and where they have to go to make the build eg “put a white square on the blue rectangle” it’s a really fun game and it’s a massive test in communication (hence why we play it with our 5 year old becsusw it’s a good learning activity).
You can add a third person in and they are the “supplier” (lol!), the picture holder explains to the supplier what is needed then the builder makes it under the picture holders direction @Jynx

Omg I love this @ArraDreaming! I will totally be telling my sister about it so we can play with my nephew. I love that it is both the creative freedom and the communication and collaboration! You must have a decent stash of lego haha. I remember when we were kids I had a HUGE tub of lego, then got older and I think my parents must have sold it at a garage sale or something. Now I am in my 30's I wish I still had it! The big tubs at Kmart are soooo expensive (as are the individual sets I like), I might have to look on marketplace or something.

So sorry @ArraDreaming ... it seems closer in Victoria than other states but it's worse than I'd expected.

Please know that a lot of people were with you on this.

The ABC says Vic is too close to call atm... so lots hoped for better.

Re: I’m very fearful about the impact of this referendum vote

I think @Dimity is referring to how close the results were @ArraDreaming - that almost half of Australians were on the yes side. And regardless of the outcome, things are still going to change as a result of this - be it harder pushing for changes in legislation, more indigenous people in politics, and it being a topic at the forefront of conversation for a while to come. I hope it still leads to positive change for the future.
