Found this post on IG and I'm wondering what this community's stance is. With winter now officially here*, I think it's a valid question.
Edit: *where I live

A place for enthusiasts of sticks of all shapes and sizes. We all love a good stick! Is it a walking stick? Light Saber? Gun? Looks brown and sticky? You decide!
Feel free to post sticks to rate, sticks that look like things, memes about sticks, long winded rants about the superiority of birch sticks over oak, anything stick related! Natural sticks are preferred, but modification and ornamentation is also fine.

I just realized there is an entire continent where there are no trees, and thus no sticks.
And it isnt a small continent either. it is larger than all of Europe and also larger than Australia. We arent talking about an island or archipelago or even some random landlocked desert. It is a continent.
the fact that there are no sticks that naturally occur there at all... it confuses and concerns me.
This is deeply unsettling to me.
Not all that well-known, but Australia claims about 42% of Antarctica as part of it's territory.
Claims vs. recognized.
Well, yeah. That's the word I used.
Maybe but usually when people talk about Australia in this context they mean the continent, not the country.
Australia can go fuck itself
Okay.
