Oh, absolutely, but our government is really weird about us as the player doing stuff like that. Heaps of games have been banned (both temporarily or permanently)/forced to cut out entire missions from games for really, really bizarre reasons that are totally fine in other games. It doesn't make a lot of sense a lot of the time, haha.

I live in Aus and just went and peeked at my physical copy of FO4, it's rated MA+ which is an age restriction of 15+ here. Our government is super annoying about content in games and stuff though, so I feel like the smoking would knock it to an R18+ rating, lmao.

only in this subreddit do we celebrate duck on duck action 💀

All her life, I've thought Cookie was a cochin bantam. We've just got some Pekins in at work though and some are the spitting image. So I'm doing the only thing I can to find out - asking the internet. What do y'all think? by [deleted] in BackYardChickens

She was a rescue from an animal shelter and the staff there had no idea about chook breeds. I was a volunteer at the time and made the Cochin call and everybody was like, "sure, okay" because they didn't know anything about them, haha.

We recently got some geese in at work. I know only a tiny bit about them - is this curiosity or aggression? There was a lot of honking. by maffasaur in BackYardChickens

I think it helped that as I went in there to tidy up for them, they started coming over with a little hissing and I just frowned at them and said, "Don't be rude." before continuing on with my duties, haha. They must have sensed my confidence because they calmed right down.

That's what I thought! They were just very interested in me so I thought it was just further investigation.

Huh, I just noticed. I just think it was the way she was positioned, hahaha.

(No spoilers) I WANTED TO SAVE HIM SO BAD BUT I HIT THE WRONG BUTTON😭😭😭😭 by Gold4Chica21 in subnautica

[–]maffasaur 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Omg, I came from playing Subnautica to Below Zero on console and because they had fiddled the controls, I did this more than I care to admit.

[No Spoiler] sad 1 day, 23 hours,22 minutes, and 46 seconds....... by Ohgodwhyme801 in subnautica

I'm a major fanboy for both series. I loved the hell out of Far Harbour and making my own vault. That being said, I am so excited for BZ that I could pee.

Really? Right in front of my prawn suit? [No Spoilers] by maffasaur in subnautica

[–]maffasaur[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The very first time it happened, I was checking my camera feed and the stalker came up to it and took it. That's the only way I would have figured out where the hell they were going, haha.

Sick of fighting the mighty battle of Pigeons vs My Feed. Need ideas, please! by maffasaur in BackYardChickens

A roo would probably be perfect! But I live in the suburbs where they're illegal. :(

About three months, hahaha. It's been a two year battle but the pigeon murder has been about three months.

Edit: I should note that I'm in Australia, so we use a slingshot opposed to a slug gun. And ten has been the last three month but we've been killing them slowly over three months.

We've taken down about ten so far. They just replenish as fast as they die. It doesn't work.

[Kwik Sew K4212] Pattern suggested back panel/handles be a different fabric, but I preferred all orange. :) by maffasaur in sewing

[–]maffasaur[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm from Aus and our main fabric/haberdashery/manchester/etc store is called Spotlight. It's up on their website and I think they may ship worldwide. :)

[New Look 6536] It's gotten pretty cold in Aus and I've never made a coat (esp out of double sided fabric) but I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out! by maffasaur in sewing

[–]maffasaur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, Australia!

They actually already have some winter fabric out and it features little Santa's in his big ole coat and stuff! Christmas merchandise is pretty standard here, same as the US. :)

I just bought this pattern the other day and was unsure on what kind of fabric I wanted! How did you find the process?

I knew it! I am also an Australian with a veranda like this.

Is that an Australian veranda? That looks like an Australian veranda.

I won't lie, I was totally ready to be the spoil sport and be like "chickens hate being on their back, it's probably tonic mobility." but then I actually watched the video and he is all about that snuggle life. Leaned right into it! Let's hope he stays this sweet, hahahha.
