chat I got covid :((
I’m dying here my throat hurts so baddd
on the bright side at least I get a tolerance break from weed at the end of this :P
anyways here’s an out of context image from a DougDoug stream last week, probably the funniest stream I’ve seen from him this year
here is the baby
Upvoting to ensure more Americans think Australia is a desolate wasteland not worth visiting.
Pretty sure America owns Australia at this point.
Why would you say such a thing?
This inspired me to go find out
100% mate, we got drop bears and other venomous mammals. Shits crazy down here!
The actual fauna in Australia is way worse than whatever dropbear stuff of nightmares anyone’s brain can concoct anyway lmao
Recently the quokkas evolved to use tools and they’ve become quite skilled with switch blades. Now it’s not just the drop bears, you have to watch out for quokkas sneaking up behind you and cutting the tendons in your legs with a poisoned blade.
they’ll mug ya for a ciggie all right!
Yeah, I can be pretty fucking venomous when I want to be!
But is it worth visiting (I’m not an american)
As an Australian I may be biased, but I think before colonization Australia (or at least big parts of it) were a paradise. A lot has been damaged, but it’s still a special place.
Eh, to summarise, early Aboriginal hunting caused a shift in the ecosystem that led to eucalyptus becoming dominant, and in turn caused the great desertification of the continent.
They couldn’t have possibly known of course, not slinging blame here. Its just a sad example where even pre-colonisation and industrialization, humans have been wreaking havoc on nature.
I think it’d have to go a long way back to call it proper paradise.
