Lately I think a lot about how I think of Australia as being... America, but more. Arkansas with a beach.

I like "closed ports."

This reminded me of a NOVA show I saw recently on the evidence that as recently as 50 million years ago the South Pole (and Antarctica in general) had a subtropical to tropical climate.  Giant sequoia trees.  Rainforests.  Large animals.  Still had the long summer days and winter nights though.

That has to be a reference to that pandemic Flash game.

Is it because people are more open-minded and less provincial there?

My dad would say they're so open-minded, their brains fell out.

I have travelled throughout Jesus and Meth extensively. I've had some good times in Lawlessness for sure.

I've briefly toured Lazy Fucks and Corrupt and Broken.

They're all fun places to spend a coupla weeks now and again.

But I am comfortable enough with myself to admit what my comfort zone is. Stoners or Freaks for me!
