Someone is renting this apartment in Southbank for probably $700/w, and is then subletting it for 350*8 = $2800/w total.

Backpackers and international students are legitimately enquiring for it, as it is impossible to find housing (and it's still cheaper than a hostel).

That's how fucked rental accommodation is in Melbourne right now.

Has anyone else noticed this? Most of them seem to close somewhere between 7-8pm and will often have a bunch of hungry, disheartened customers around then. It's dinner time and I want some chippies.

Anyone know where I can get southern biscuits and gravy in Melbourne? I used to get them from Mason Dixon but they’ve been closed for a while now.

For those of you who might have been wondering.

Just over a week ago, a woman asked how to disappear. She asked me to update you all on todays date.

She wanted me to specify where we met (Melbourne Magistrates Court) to encourage others to meet safely if they needed it.

She wanted to say thank you to everyone for the help and resources.

She wanted me to tell you she's safe and managed to dig up her burried treasure with all her documents before escape.

I really believe I was the happiest person in the court house that day. She's made my year.
