  • AshDahlstrom Ash Dahlstrom (@AshDahlstrom) reported

    This person I know who lives with their parents in Abbotsford (an affluent area in Sydney) is talking about how the system is broken on their Instagram because they cut her payment by $100. Probably because you live with your rich parents, you tone deaf moron.
