as a non American I find owning guns abhorrent but to each their own

hardly surprising, there’s much less incentive to break road rules when you’re completely vulnerable to everyone around you and balanced on 2 wheels.
rember 😀
probably good quality food and coffee and consumer products that actually last, if i had to guess
i only eat ribs in one room of the house
world news has always meant American news on reddit
Sydney, but I’m just here for the photos
the UI looks better too in my opinion but that’s subjective
I might have to get mastodon then
spaghetti bolognese with peas is super underrated IMO
I live in Australia where feral animals are absolutely rampant, and one of the biggest problems facing our ecosystem. We have lots of guns but almost no gun violence especially compared to the US. I could have used better wording but i agree with owning a gun if it’s absolutely necessary, and defending yourself against robbers isn’t one. But I agree the issue is systemic and that a lot of things in the US need to change both legally and culturally in order for guns to be banned which will probably never happen. But the fact is that the culture surrounding guns and the sheer amount of them you have in your country and more specifically the cities, not to mention the violence, is repulsive to almost every other country in the world. All our guns are more or less restrained to the outback and farms or rural areas where hunters actually live, and most people don’t own more than a few, and especially don’t make a hobby out of it. Because we see them as a tool a lot more than Americans do, on average. I can’t speak for everyone obviously but that’s the way I see it and statistics back it up.
