Sounds nice

2019-10-13 21:26:43 UTC  

Spent my hour long job interview walking around the place, looks amazing

2019-10-13 21:27:37 UTC  

They pioneered the method of propagating spinifex grass, now the council buys it in bulk to prevent beach erosion

2019-10-13 21:28:50 UTC  

Spinifex is that sharp as fuck grass that'll kill your feet at the beach right?

2019-10-13 21:29:06 UTC  

I don't think it's sharp

2019-10-13 21:29:13 UTC  

New shoots would be

2019-10-13 21:29:23 UTC  

Must just be the grass we have between beach and heath lol

2019-10-13 21:29:33 UTC  

I thought it was endemic to Australia

2019-10-13 21:29:47 UTC  

Might not be spinifex we have, don't know the name for it

2019-10-13 21:29:59 UTC  

I just call it knifegrass, sure it has a real name though

2019-10-13 21:30:31 UTC  

Anyway, that's awesome. Preserving the beautiful beach dunes

2019-10-13 21:31:35 UTC  

Trioda or whatever it is masquerades as spinifex but isn't

2019-10-13 21:31:44 UTC  

Spinifex is an actual genus

2019-10-13 21:36:10 UTC  

I know alot about Insects, reptiles, etc, but I don't know much at all about plants.

2019-10-13 21:38:03 UTC  

Plants are dope bro

2019-10-13 21:38:21 UTC  

Fungi even more so but I don't know a great deal in that department

2019-10-13 21:39:39 UTC  

Bugs are based

2019-10-13 21:39:41 UTC  

I know embarrassing little about mushrooms, only which edible ones can be found in the wild around here and the season has passed (AND THEY CHOPPED DOWN THE FUCKING FOREST THAT HAD SOME OF MY SECRET CHANTARELLES)

2019-10-13 21:39:58 UTC  

Bugger bro

2019-10-13 21:40:56 UTC  

Still know where to hunt for karl johan - I have no clue what it's called in english lol

2019-10-13 21:41:02 UTC  

You need kids shows like "Blinky Bill" to raise environmentalist tyrants

2019-10-13 21:41:16 UTC  

😄

2019-10-13 21:41:54 UTC  

So HALpha that he doesn't collect mushrooms, he hunts them

2019-10-13 21:42:20 UTC  

Porcini or Penny Bun it's apparently called

2019-10-13 21:42:57 UTC  

I can't afford a rifle, the license or the appropriate cabinets and training to keep the aforementioned, so I am reduced to hunting shroomies instead of game alas

2019-10-13 21:43:28 UTC  

Make a bow

2019-10-13 21:43:50 UTC  

Shame about all the yews tbh

2019-10-13 21:44:07 UTC  

I have been looking into making a crossbow, but - and I assume it's the same with a bow - I don't know how to make wood flexible and bendy

2019-10-13 21:44:27 UTC  

If any of you guys ever wanna come visit the US, I will take you shooting.

2019-10-13 21:44:53 UTC  

If ever I find myself crossing the big ocean, you people would definitely be among the ones to meet up with

2019-10-13 21:46:34 UTC  

Idk about xbows but the best recurves have always been yew

2019-10-13 21:47:05 UTC  

Smh just make a steel pipe shotgun

2019-10-13 21:47:14 UTC  

The underside of all branches are under compression and the topside under tension

2019-10-13 21:47:15 UTC  

Is there a special technique or process to making the wood flexible?

2019-10-13 21:47:23 UTC  

I wanna get more guns, but that costs money, and I got the neccesities for the Boogaloo, my reliable rifle, my 9mm semi pistol, and a trusty revolver

2019-10-13 21:47:48 UTC  

Remember kids, being physically fit is just as, if not more important than any boogaloo gear

2019-10-13 21:47:50 UTC  

Idk, cut the right thickness and use those two sides of the branch

2019-10-13 21:47:53 UTC  

Don't ever doxx ur guns or dey crie bulles

2019-10-13 21:48:07 UTC  

Stu would be the one to ask, he made one

2019-10-13 21:48:14 UTC  

Yeah, if you don't have the ability to ruck your gear long distances, it's useless

2019-10-13 21:48:21 UTC  

Hm, well guess I better get my ass to research it properly eventually
