        Following the last few years the list of topics they were concerned with is growing very slim.

        Canada and UK act all haughty about being superior to the US but we have MAGA here and the UK has similar, and there is a reason they are called TERF island.

            Have you tried accessing mental health care here recently? We have practice nurses prescribing SSRIs, not mental health care.

        Nah, that’s Australia. Australia and the US are closer allies than UK and the US.

          I read that linguistically, Australian English is closer to American than British versions. Having never yet been there but occasionally having a Violet Crumble when available, I can believe it.

            It’s a mix of both. For basic things like elevator vs lift, Aussies will generally understand both words and use them interchangeably.

            Historically there was a lot of British influence, but these days I feel like it’s definitely getting closer to US English. A lot of media (movies, TV shows, YouTube creators, etc) in Australia is American, and a lot of American slang enters the vernacular that way.

            It’s becoming that way, but it’s still definitely closer to British English.
