That’s not world news

Unironically this; it really doesn’t belong in this sub (not the first file time I’ve seen something like this). I’m guessing the poster saw the word ‘Australian’ and thought that was enough.

Er, no, I’m the poster and saw the word “worm” and wanted to share. The rules in this particular community are not that prescriptive:

So that’s why I posted here specifically.
