That picture is forced perspective. The camel spider is creepy looking but not dangerous to humans, they eat smaller animals.

Fuck me! It's the 20th right now! Why am I wasting time at work right now?

re: Bob Woodward timing. Suppose he had something that looks bad about Drumphs emails. Suppose that he worked for the FBI. Suppose he elected to release it to maximum effect a week or 2 before the election for some reason....

My point is that the tactical defense of the argument that it is 'cos timing and hence cos morality' as presented is rubbish. You'd do it later. Further more if 'for the sake of getting knowledge out there ASAP', you'd get it out there ASAP. To release at the same time as the book and achieve neither of those potentially defensible moral aims? Yeah, nah. Ockham dictates that it was all about book sales for mine.

Since Australia has been mentioned a lot recently, here's my thoughts. 1. Huntsman spiders are actually harmless to humans and eat other more dangerous spiders, standard protocol is to remove it from the house using paper and a plastic container, not killing it. If it's a redback on the other hand definitely be careful, be afraid and kill it. As a melbournian I've never had to deal with a funnel web so I can't help with that. 2. Most dangerous animals do not live in the city. The weirdest thing I've seen is a stray kangaroo, idk where it came from but even that is once in a blue moon. Unless you go to the beach or non-urban areas the exotic wildlife is really non existent. 3. The right way to eat vegimite is a tiny bit on top of a lot of butter on toast. Never eat it concentrated or without bread. Never eat it directly from the spoon. Also not all Australians like vegimite; I'm not a big fan myself, but I still know how to properly eat it. 4. What's this Southern Ice Tea you guys are talking about? I'm wondering if it's similar to a product we have. In Australia we are big fans of "Iced Coffee" which is really just cold coffee, sugar and milk. I've given myself digestive issues from having too much and I'm not even lactose intolerant. Any way, apparently this isn't actually an Australian thing and not a common international product, can you confirm? Thanks, James.

Southern tea is just weak tea served sickeningly sweet, in a tall ice filled glass. The way I drank it growing up was essentially tea flavored Koolaid.
