It is apt that the museum of fire is in Australia.

Gum trees cause fire because of the eucalyptus oil in them... They're known to spontaneously combust. That's why California has bush fires too...

....they should probably get rid of the. They'd have less fires.

There's also the Hall of Flame Fire Museum in Phoenix, AZ.

Is it the "Museum of Fire Use" at the next exit or is it the "Museum of Fire", and you should use the next exit?

If I know my Australian road signs, the the latter option.

It means there’s a school tour.

Vaping is getting out of hand

So naturally I was looking for the duraflame tree.

Remindes me of how the patent for the first fire hydrant was destroyed in a fire

It definitely not Morse code in that smoke. I believe it's multiplex I2C mixed with stereo 90's rock FM. Either way, where there's smoke, there's a fire museum....or a guy smoking 🚬🚭.

Looks like the touch tank for the kids to play with got a little out of hand

Edit: firestarter added, a must have


It seems to fit the name quite well.

I guess it was meant to be taken as a literal name; feel free to join in if you're a firefighter or a Firestarter [1], that is.

Fun fact, Lemmy supports that kind of citation without you having to format it manually^[If you want to see how, just click the "view source" button.]. It's pretty convenient if you ask me. I mean, maybe some apps won't see it correctly, but it should work.

Jerboa doesn't support it, it's just unformatted text

Sounds like a good feature request to make.

Shows up nicely in Thunder, but how did you add it?
