ecologists, like wombats or crocodiles, only grow larger as they age

I used to be until they installed that "no shitposting in QCS" rule which was promptly ignored by many people who have much longer rap sheets because of it.

the "herding other animals into their burrows" hasn't been verified, but it also hasn't been like, un-verified. but wombats were definitely seen sharing their burrows with bandicoots and possums and i believe a few wallabies during the height of the fire crisis

That was such a good character. Still brings a smile to my face. You should publish it somewhere, somehow.

Oh it's total bullshit, but even if it was 100% true, this is hilariously out of proportion and makes Warren look like poo poo. If Bernie was a raging sexist, this would have come out right away.

I can't tell if the American media doesn't understand or doesn't care how little trust people have in the entire institution these days. The only person I've seen trying to sound the alarm is Matt Taibbi but I guess for the cable networks it doesn't affect the bottom line so it's not really a concern for them.
