We want to celebrate Australia and all its wild weirdness and glory, so, we've got you a collection of the newest pics from the subreddit dedicated to this wonderful country.

These Are Ghost Mushrooms, Omphalotus Nidiformis, Bioluminescent Mushrooms Native To Australia. They Come Out On A Dead Tree On My Farm Each Year After A Rainy Season

Bioluminescent mushrooms are fascinating. Panellus stipticus is also one if anyone wants more illuminating mushroom knowledge to read. Edit: Depending on where you live, you may be allowed to grow bioluminescent mushrooms as long as they are not an invasive species in your country and you have a cool new pet that is not a plant.

While some bioluminescent mushrooms, like Omphalotus nidiformis, are not edible and can cause severe reactions, others, like Panellus stipticus, are considered non-poisonous but too small or bitter to be edible.

Every country and its people have at least one stereotype about them. That's just our human nature; we find it easier to categorize people and things according to traits. Australia is no exception: people think they know what and how Australians drink and eat, what nature's really like over there, and what the most popular slang phrases are.
In 2024, Preply polled over a thousand Australians and asked them their opinion about the way folks from other countries stereotype them. 66% think that stereotypes about Australians and Australia are mostly positive. Yet they have two that they really dislike: that all Australians love 'putting shrimp on the barbie' and say 'g'day, mate'.

Another Panda 9 months ago
Nothing like having bright distracting signs when you are driving. Seriously, though - it is a problem. Schools have gigantic, colourful bright signs at the roadside, servos and stores have hyper-blindingly bright signs on the highway at night, busses have advertising, cars have headlights that will burn your eyeballs out - the list goes on. Plus the speed limits change continually on the same stretch of highway, and you are forced to watch the speedo at almost all times, because if you go over you get hit with a huge fine. If they really want people to be attentive to their surroundings, there needs to be a return to common sense, and an elimination of bright advertising lights and unnecessarily blinding headlights.

Load More Replies... Yet not all stereotypes are bad. Some paint Australia and its people in a good light, and Australians are way more likely to like those. In fact, at least 42% of the Australians Preply surveyed said they liked people thinking that Australians are laid-back people. They also like the stereotype that Aussies abbreviate words (37%), and I have to agree. 'Brekkie' is a way better way to refer to breakfast.
Only 19% of Australians also agree with the stereotype that all Australians are fearful of animals. It's probably just because they grow up there and know which ones are safe to pet and which ones they'd better avoid. In fact, most local Australians will tell you that the wildlife is more scared of you than you are of them!

Contrary to popular belief, Aussies don't go around getting into punching fights with kangaroos. And they don't ride them, either. Kangaroos often get a bad rap: if we were to believe that one video online, all 'roos' are out to get you and your dog. But, in reality, kangaroos are pretty chill animals if they're not being disturbed.

It's a little difficult to gauge with this view but the cliffs vary from 60m to 120m in height.

Fun fact - Nullarbor is a vast, almost treeless plain in southern Australia, and the name comes from the Latin words "nullus" (meaning "no") and "arbor" (meaning "tree"), hence "no trees".
Some people make the mistake of trying to keep kangaroos as pets. However, they've never been domesticated, and keeping a kangaroo as a pet can be incredibly dangerous. Graeme Coulson, professor at the University of Melbourne, calls kangaroos 'vegetarian gladiators'. He explains that kangaroos only attack when provoked or cornered.

eMpTy 9 months ago (edited)
It would be a Bush Stone-Curlew. If they are nesting close by they will spread their wings, of around 1.5m, and run at you making a lot of noise. On their own and not being aggressive they may freeze on the spot if approached and with their grey colouring they may look like a large stone. At night you can hear their mournful cries which can be mistaken for a Bunyip. https://youtu.be/gqZsdBF-eKg

I'm an Aussie and haven't heard of curlews, I'm hoping they just aren't common in my state, but it's more likely I'm just not observant. I've only just learned about plovers and they can be as protective as magpies (and I guess curlews) during spring.
Large pets and dingoes are the main predators of kangaroos, and that's why the cornered animals may feel the need to defend themselves when faced with a human and their dog. "Domestic dogs and kangaroos do not mix," Coulson writes. "Many attacks on people occur when a kangaroo defends itself against a dog, then the owner tries to intervene."

Viscous (Aka Vegemite) By Nathan Pyle

I am Australian and the only thing I can compare it to is thickened soy sauce. Extremely salty though I believe there is now a low salt version.
Joe Reaves 9 months ago
I mean it's the concentrated remnants of the brewing process (I assume it's the same origin as marmite anyway) so it's bound to be salty.

I think there's low salt Marmite too.

For those who wish to see a kangaroo, it's best to do so from a distance. 'Roos' roam in grasslands, outback plains, vineyards, and islands. In Western Australia, some kangaroos even hang out at beaches. "Their favourite spot seems to be at the western end of the beach just next to the campground where they laze around and feed on the seaweed that’s washed up," travel blogger Mark Fitz writes.

P I S S Ants. Find them often in kitchens and bathrooms. Doesnt matter HOW clean you are, they come for the water. Diatomaceous earth. Find where they are coming from and douse the area with it. Give it a few days then sweep it up. Problem solved.

Ants or midges... Hot water and then clean it thoroughly. They don't bite.

Complaint About Dog In Public Park
So the young fulla reported today that about 10:30AM some guy came up and told him he needed to leave the park because the other dogs were going off. He's got autism and has his little route that he always takes, and the parks around us have no signed restrictions around dogs (though when this guy came up he was apparently on the bench and doggo was with him. He is very well trained and as far as I know this guy was walking a pair of Daschunds).
Reckon this note is fair enough? No idea who this guy is; I had more choice words for him but didn't want to rev him up when it was very likely just going to be the lad.

'The young fella you're talking to is &^&^ and my name's (*#@&$*(. As much as it might be irritating, and I am sorry that it is, &$(@#*&(@#E are within their right to use a public park. He's not deliberately revving dogs up, he's there ar a reasonable time of day, and ultimately, your source of irritation sounds more to tbe the other dogs than (*&@#$(*&*( More than happy to chat on (&*^^%& if you like to discuss. Wishing you well.."

I live among ranchers, farmers, and loggers and they use pickup trucks that size because they need to. You can't pull a 25' cattle trailer with a Prius. The undercarriage provides the clue. Dirty? They use it. Spotless? It's a toy.

In my town the solution is don’t drive it into the middle of town - lots of alternate routes available if you can’t fit your vehicle in the lane.

New Zealand still has an option to join Australia as a state :-) New Zealand Premier Richard Seddon called a Royal Commission in 1900. The commission reported that: The stretch of some twelve hundred miles of sea… is a weighty argument against New Zealand joining the Commonwealth. The Australian Constitution still contains a clause allowing New Zealand to merge with Australia.

Police Dusting For Prints On A Poster Saying ‘Israel Kills Kids. Hold Them Accountable.’
Data1001 9 months ago
The whole claim that 'protests against Israel are anti-Semitic' is just so frustrating. The protests are against what the government of Israel is doing in the war, not against the Jewish people. That's like saying anyone who criticizes Trump hates all American people.
Michael P (Perthaussieguy) 9 months ago
Yeah. I only hate Trump and everyone who voted for him, lol.
