Despite all my rage I’m still a rat refreshing this page.

I use arch btw.

Credibly accused of being a fascist, liberal, commie, anarchist, child, boomer, pointlessly pedantic, a Russian psychological warfare operative, and db0’s sockpuppet.

Pronouns are she/her.

Vegan for the iron deficiency.

  • Basically no Australian wildlife can or will seriously hurt you. There are some snakes which if you try really hard you might run into (for reference I’ve had 2 encounters with dangerous snakes in my life), a couple of spiders one of which is extremely common but not at all aggressive and does not roam, kangaroos if you hit them with your car you will be fucked up, emus and cassowaries if you go where they are and try really hard to make them angry, crocs up north if you approach them can be dangerous, box jellies up north will kill you if you swim when they’re about, dingoes in the centre are wild dogs so if they’re hungry they could harm you.

    you can go bush walking with no plan and just some water. Wander off the track all day, and your biggest danger is getting lost. Avoid that and it’s dehydration or falls. If you stick your hands into dark crevices and overturn bark and stuff I guess spiders and snakes?







  • Are you sure about braindeath being a mental condition? My thoughts, confirmed by quick googling, was a medical-legal standard for death based on permanent death of the brain. As a person can otherwise be vegetative/comatosed or whatever, or like a liver can keep operating for a while etc.

    As an insult I think it’s meant to be taken as “This is only explainable if you have no brain activity” not “you are like a living human with a different or damaged brain”.
