Yeah exactly right? I’ve had Americans tell me that snakes and spiders are too scary, snakes will actively run from people (mostly) and spiders don’t care about you they just want flies and stuff.

Meanwhile in NA you’ve got powerful prey species that will just randomly wander through town, not to mention all the gun violence in the USA…

Most dangerous thing here are the cars tbh.

I really really hate this narrative. Time and time again people tell me they would love to come to Australia but it’s too dangerous.

This isn’t a dangerous place, most of our wildlife is harmless and/or actively avoids people. It makes me so damn sad every time another friend tells me how deadly my home is, and even worse they refuse to listen to people who actually live here because they’ve been told Australia is dangerous their whole life.

Just pirate, it’s better than paying these companies to rip off artists. Support your favourite artists directly, streams are basically worthless compared to other forms of income like merch.

It’s literally not, lol

Yes. Almost no one smokes in Australia because of them

Not all of us get downvotes, I see them pretty much daily…

It really seems like people can’t get past the fact that while nuclear did have an unfair reputation, it’s just too late to make use of it.

Like yeah, it sucks that people blocked it and we built tons of fossil fuel power instead, but now we just have a better option and we can give up that fight.

Fellow Aussie, equally confused.

These are actually so much cooler than I was expecting!
