Goodbye, cruel world!

Goodbye, cruel lamp!

Goodbye, cruel velvet drapes lined with what would appear to be some sort of cruel muslin and the cute little pompom curtain pull cords, cruel though they may be, I…

Only people who have never had buffalo wings before are confused by this.

I got so much cheese in my pocket, they thought I was a fuckin’ calzone.

“How DARE you break wind before me!”

“I’m sorry, baby, I didn’t know it was your turn.”

Nice. I didn’t expect anyone to.

Papa smurf, can I lick yo ass?!

I’d watch a story recap for the first game, then play all of them after that up until black flag. Origins/odyssey/valhalla are good if you are into massive open worlds that can get pretty repetitive and have about a billion side quests and stealth doesn’t matter nearly as much unless specifically required for some rare quests. I love them, but the Ezio trilogy was peak AC imho.

Put me to sleep with your kind boots mister fancy man.

That’s your brain trying to stop you from pissing/shitting the bed.

I feel like you are assuming I’m against you. We agree that this is the correct thing to do. I’m just trying to explain why it isn’t going to happen. We didn’t get here by accident. People are garbage. Why would we suddenly behave any differently? People only care about what affects them in the moment.

Imagine telling a random person they have two choices.

Choice number one is business as usual, people hunt down the overpopulated animals, they get food out of the deal and the ecosystem is preserved.

Choice number two is bringing in some wolves who will achieve the same end goal, except now people don’t get the food and you gotta be extra careful being outside at night if you live anywhere near the tree line (and potentially anywhere in town depending on the size).

This is also assuming that it works out as we hope and the wolves don’t become overpopulated themselves due to easy hunting and living conditions because of all the oblivious prey that don’t realize they are even on the menu.

That’s great for people that don’t live near these places. Most aren’t going to volunteer to have wolves or cougars or whatever reintroduced into their local forest and risk them to run wild through the neighborhood mauling children and pets.

I didn’t ask how these situations could have been prevented. That ship has sailed. I wish we hadn’t caused it to be this way, but here we are. Now the two options are to kill them back down to sustainable numbers, or allow them to destroy the ecosystem thereby condemning themselves and a host of other animals as well.

I’m not a hunter myself, and I personally probably don’t have what it takes to kill an animal even in these circumstances, but I also can’t provide a better solution. So I’m not going to shame people for hunting when it both provides food for them as well as brings balance to an ecosystem.

I will, however, shame them if it is done purely for sport and against non problem animals. I hope those folks that go to Africa and hunt elephants and lions and shit get eaten. Slowly.

Not enough or no natural predators usually.
