Completed my Census form online, yesterday having received my login details via the snail mail.

Very basic questions and did not take long to complete it.

They are allowing it to be done ahead of the official day (10th August) ... good idea - that may mean the system does not bog down like last time.

In that case, I might do my census online today.

I did mine last night.

My split personality is always a problem, with schizophrenia and dementia.

You should ask the ABS for a second copy of the Census to fill out then. One for each personality.  ;D

Religion.....the great spaghetti monster
Gender....I identify as a meat popsicle.
Race.....earth
Income ......not enough
Marital status....yes
Children....yes

Yes but. What happens if you report early, then change your religion, house burns down and you die from covid?  Can you then change back to the old religion?

"Fill in 2 application forms, stating why you want to return to previous belief and what you don't believe in now. Is there a dead relative here who can explain what's going on".

Just tried to do ours.  Bastard of a thing would not let me passed the names of 'who is in household question.'  I filled it out....pressed 'next' and was sent back to complete it.

Schits me.  Have another go tomorrow.

Took 10 minutes to fill out.

The Govts. sure are nosey parkers.

There is basically nothing that they don't know already.
They probably even have your colonoscopy pictures -
if the truth be known.

Did mine last week

I was particulary amused when I was answering the questions (which were the same as mine) for my 91 year old aunt and one of the questions asked was... has she started a study course (or words to that effect) recently?

We both had a bit of a laugh at that.  ;D

The Govt. is watching you:

At 93 years of age, Dr Lis Kirkby has become Australia's oldest graduate.  PhD she did.

NSW government was upset that some people signed the covid shop lists as "Mickey Mouse. Spiderman" and so on.  The Census probably has a donkey vote like elections.

I wonder if, in 100 years time, people will be looking at this year's census to track down their ancestors? No doubt the Ancestry site will be encouraging it, still.  ;D

Done.  Getting past that was not intuitive...it was plain dumb on the part of the ABS.  It looks like all you have to do is just fill in the names, but nah....you have to hit what I reckon is an unnecessary other button.....before you can enter names.  Stupid.

Everyone in my unit complex had received their census forms a week or more ago
- except yours truly.

My neighbour Karen (it's her actual name - she's not 'a Karen', far from it) actually
got 3, all addressed to her unit so it wasn't the postie's fault.

So the other night, in the throes of a paroxysm of boredom I decided to do mine
online. Answered all the questions, then saved and exited. I had planned to not
send it til it was due just in case someone happened to lob here on that night.

Annnnd... today the paper form finally turned up in the mail.

Organisation certainly isn't the ABS's strong point. :P :P

Probably all arranged by some private contractor at double the cost.

Had a parcel once posted from Brissie to go to the GC ... somehow it went up to Rockie, then onto Darwin, somehow got sent down to Melbourne, then back to Brissie via Sydney before it was finally delivered on the GC

friggen thing traveled more kilometers than most people do in their lives  ;D ;D ;D

:D :D :D :D

Had a similar thing happen to a parcel I had coming from Sydney ....

got to Brisbane .... was sent to Adelaide ... back to Sydney .... then back to Brisbane before making its way... 3 hrs north of Brisbane ...

the guys sorting have seconds to look for the postcode and grab it off the conveyor belt and throw it in the right bin before they miss the opportunity, with thousands of parcels on the belt at once. It's very easy to make a mistake. I tried doing it one day to help them, my head was spinning after 5 minutes and I had to walk away because i felt queezy

Quote:

Last month, the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) confirmed that questions relating to queer identities were not included. In papers given to the Senate: “the ABS noted the potential question[s] on sexual orientation met the ‘no alternative data source’ criterion to a high extent.” While they did highlight the importance of data covering “the health needs” of non-binary people and other diverse individuals, ultimately, “there was a ‘limited case’” for including it on the Census.

Look at this pharkin' sheeit. The heterophobic community are at it again trying to push their pharkin' homosexual agenda. As if it means that they are trying to challenge the majority of people to accept homosexuality as being a priority sexuality. There was a "non-binary" option on the questionaire. I think the ABS has been very generous here.

Should sexual orientation be even a consideration on census forms? What business is it of anyone else what your preference? We are supposed to do a count of how many people there are in Australia and even their origins. If we have a good idea of how many and where people are, then we have an idea where funding should be going for future projects.

What's their agenda?

Irish paid for the fairy people when a roadway was diverted.
https://www.irishtimes.com/news/fairy-bush-survives-the-motorway-planners-1.190053

According to Mr Lenihan, the bush is a marker in a fairy path and was the rendezvous point for Kerry fairies on their way to do battle with the Connacht fairies. Under the bush, Mr Lenihan claims, the Kerry fairies would regroup and consult on what might be the best tactics in battle. He said their white blood has been seen on a number of occasions on the surrounding grass.

He warned of terrible consequences if the fairy bush was destroyed, saying that the site in 10 to 15 years' time may have a higher than usual casualty list, including fatalities. Last night, Mr Lenihan said he was very glad at the outcome. "I didn't think there would be any need from every point of view that it should be cut down. I'm happy people have seen sense."

the burglar alarm is a semi tone higher you should know the difference

They got almost everything from me, with the exception of who I share my bed with. my racial makeup - and full name

For as long as my mind goes back the ABS had emphatically denied storing names

Last census they finally came clean - and admitted storing names for thirty years from the time censuses began

The ABS has never given an explanation for this - other than matching up with your MyGov, MyHealth, Centrelink, Passport, taxation and Police files

Adding a name to your census form goes beyond "data collection"
Names are NEVER needed for "data collection"

It becomes a PERSONAL PROFILE DOSSIER

I think my claim was clear that the non-binary/homosexual groups are whingeing about not being allowed to promote their homosexuality by making it an issue IN the census.

That is completely different. Announcing that you are gay to someone in private is simply a way to let the person know you are homosexual, in the context of letting them know where you stand in terms of sexual orientation. You don't lead off with that as an opening statement when in a new social situation. If the context is right, such as someone hitting on you and you prefer the same gender (different to the person hitting on you), it would be okay to let them know you are gay. But, if I went around announcing that I am heterosexual to all and sundry, it would not only be really socially awkward after the first few, but I would be receiving reprimands for being sexually harassing towards people who were not interested in knowing my sexual preference.

So, if there was an option of whether you were heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, asexual, or whatever else, it would be irrelevant to the census data and would serve no purpose. Pretty soon, the question of religion might also be removed from the census question. But, "soon" might be for the 2031 census.

The census reader sees it in private.  Probably a scanner reads the - mark and keeps it to itself unless scanners are now gendered. Having a sexual scanner would be secret. They have male and female plugs.

Well, yeah. The government can match up the data with what they already know. See the discrepancies in the answers.

They got almost everything from me, with the exception of who I share my bed with. my racial makeup - and full name For as long as my mind goes back the ABS had emphatically denied storing names Last census they finally came clean - and admitted storing names for thirty years from the time censuses began The ABS has never given an explanation for this - other than matching up with your MyGov, MyHealth, Centrelink, Passport, taxation and Police files Adding a name to your census form goes beyond "data collection" Names are NEVER needed for "data collection" It becomes a PERSONAL PROFILE DOSSIER

buzzanddidj They know everything about you already in Moscow, Beijing and eBay.

They don't know as much as you might think, not regarding myself, at least
They have a Centrelink file - and a health file - but these are not linked - as YET

Governments need a name to link these small scattered mini-files - into one big one
They have quietly admitted this
They have REPEATEDLY refused to give any other justification
The ABS are on the record for LYING to Australians over many decades - over many colours of governments

Why would I trust them NOW - or make personal dossier compilation any easier ?

I don't have an eBay footprint
My personal details on Facebook are deliberately false

"They" and "them" are quite welcome to digest all of the false personal information I can feed them
