@hlehyaric I heard they were last seen boarding a plane...

@guigirl To Australia?

@hlehyaric Depends. If they're Strayan snakes, our fascist govt will deny them re-entry [due to the Zombie Apocalypse; afaik we're the only western "democracy" [chortle] whose ex-pat citizens have been actively denied re-entry]. Otoh, if they're refugee/asylum-seeker snakes, our fascist govt will imprison them on a tame tropical island bribed by us, with indefinite detention, & defy all UN admonitions about our blatant
humanspecies-rights violations. And, a majority of our selfish venal myopic racist populace will happily turn a blind eye & keep voting for this evil gov't.Sorry, what was the question, again?

Are the snakes going to Australia, adding a snake invasion after a spider invasion (due to floods or something like that)?
But, yes, they will be denied entry. -
@hlehyaric Our vicious drop-bears will repel them!

@guigirl Breaking News: they seek asylum here!

@hlehyaric I'm pretty certain that one is already a resident
The green tree python (Morelia viridis) is a species of snake in the family Pythonidae. The species is native to New Guinea, some islands in Indonesia, and the Cape York Peninsula in Australia.

In Europe, Christmas beetles are called “cockchafers”. In the year 1478, they appeared in a French court to stand trial on the charge of having been sent by witches to destroy the laity’s crops (and jeopardise the church’s tithes).
The judge, addressing the beetle as “Thou irrational and imperfect creature”, writes EP Evans in the Criminal Prosecution and Capital Punishment of Animals, found them guilty and banished them. Were the beetles to “think you have some reason for not complying”, they were to re-appear six days later at precisely one o’clock, “to justify yourselves or to answer for your conduct”.
In 1479, the cockchafers were accused of “creeping secretly in the earth”. Again the court ordered them “banned and exorcised”, adding that they, “through the power of Almighty God shall be called accursed and shall daily decrease whithersoever you may go”.Gee, i wonder why i utterly mock religion?

A man has created traffic jams by walking around town, wheeling a big trailer full of cell phones behind him.
Google Maps is incredibly useful. It tells you how to get places without arguing with somebody sitting next to you with a gigantic map. It's even put an end to endless conversations with family about which roads you took to get home. I followed the satnav like everybody else DAD, I have no idea which roads anymore because nobody does, Jesus Christ.
It's a reliable tool that – generally quite accurately – tells you how to get to where you want to go quickly, and how to avoid traffic along the way. But it turns out it's quite simple to hack. All you need is a shitload of phones and a bad attitude.
This is how artist Simon Weckert "hacked" Google Maps for a project, causing fake traffic jams to follow him around wherever he went.
To do the "hack", Weckert hired out 99 phones and bought sim cards for them online, Vice reports. He then put the sim cards in the phones and loaded up Google Maps on all of them, and loaded them into his wagon.
It really was then just a matter of walking around town. -
