    Theres a mysterious stone wall that I found in the middle of nowhere in the forest with no road access that I’ve been investigating for years and nobody else cares!

    There are other weird characteristics nearby that are visible on Google maps

    Why? Who made you?

    Edit: Here is a link to a gallery of photos I’ve taken of some segments of the wall:

    https://postimg.cc/gallery/KkPj5H1

    Here is an annotated map of the area with unusual features, some of which may be natural:

    Here is the location in google maps. The sat imagery has recently been updated: https://www.google.com/maps/@-32.2335528,116.1823985,644m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu

    I’ve been out to this location 10 or so times, and in all my digging, I haven’t found a single railroad spike or tie, so I really don’t think it’s railroad-related. The bush is extremely dense, especially near the creek, and often impossible to walk through, hence the photos are from a distance.

    The stone wall is not mortared, and I really dont think it would bear the weight of a train even in its brand new condition.

    Its very old and someone put a lot of work into it, near as I can tell its at least 50m long, maybe much longer

    I did find one very large iron nail, about 1m in length, and took it home with me, but I don’t have it any more.

    On the raised band of black stone, the stones are about melon or basketball sized, much larger than railway ballast which us usually not larger than a fist. It could be a natural formation.

      If I knew you, even casually, I would demand you take me to this mystery wall in the woods and completely disregard the risk of following relative strangers to an isolated secondary location.

        I’ve updated my OP with more details

        I wouldnt murderer you, but I cannot promise you will survive. Its very hostile terrain in Australia, after all.

    I’m a fake white supremacist on Facebook and have befriended thousands of Nazis. I report all their shitty racist posts and get their accounts banned, again and again and again.

      When you remain as the last Nazi on Facebook, you can finally report yourself and then it will be all over.

      You’re the hero we need. Thank you for your service.

      PS: how much trouble are we in, out here in the non-nazi segment of the population?

        Less trouble than you’d think. I wouldn’t call them a particularly organized group of people. Also I have convinced many of the American ones that voting for Biden will kick off race war and they’re super into that stupid idea.

    I’ve been teaching myself to make cheesecake.

    I’m generally proficient in the kitchen but never bake or work with sweet things.

    I’ve started with mini cheesecake and after a couple failed attempts, they’ve come out so good as to share with coworkers who tell me to make more.

    One of these days, I’ll graduate to full sized.

    Bonus: I’ve learned to make lemon curd from scratch. Did lime curd as an experiment once I got the lemon down.

    I enjoy kitchen undertakings that are far beyond my capabilities and actually enjoy the initial fuckups because they represent progress toward getting it right.

    I also tend to listen to a mix of eighties alternative and sixties jazz while I’m doing it because why wouldn’t those two genres go together?

    Rabbits. Rabbits are fuckin’ awesome. Did you know they don’t have paw pads like cats and dogs? There’s just fur there, which means they have less traction on slick surfaces. They can be taught to use a litterbox, too !

    They also have such different personalities from cats and dogs. Netherland dwarf bunnies are twenty pounds of bunny in a 2 pound body. They’re crazy energetic and need plenty of space even though they’re tiny. The bigger a bunny gets the more chill they generally are, but the bigger the bun the more likely there will be issues with their back or other joints as they get older.

      Do rabbits need a companion, especially if their owners can’t match their energy level? Also, is keeping an indoor rabbit with cats a bad idea?
