Back when the internet was young, I found a website selling exotic meats. It was a plain html website with just the choices of meat, a description, a picture, and "email for price and shipping information." Buffalo steaks and buffalo burgers at the top, then ground emu chuck. Then lion steaks and lion ribs. Hippo steaks and hippo roasts. Ground giraffe meat. And at the bottom, "We have acquired an elephant. Transporting elephant meat is illegal in many countries, so please verify that you have a way to receive it before contacting us. We will cut to specification."
Buffalo Burgers are goddamn delicious. It literally tastes exactly like a hamburger except it has less fat and less calories. We need to stop raising cattle and start raising Buffalo. It seems like there used to be huge herds of Buffalo in America, more than you could ever need, what happened to them? Oh, right. They were a big Native American food source, and we can't have that.:911::smith:

There are sill buffalo herds though on federal land I believe.

In Nepal most places seem to use buffalo instead of cow because there are so many Hindus there who can't eat beef. It's usually abbreviated buff so you think you're just going to get a plate of biceps or something.

Do people eat Kangaroo? I imagine Kangaroo burgers would be somewhere on the scale between gamey and inedible.

Yes people eat Kangaroo and it's really easy to gently caress it up when cooking. Cooked properly however and it's great.

There's a managed buffalo herd not far from me on Antelope Island in the Great Salt Lake. Because they're on a goddamn island the herd is very pure DNA-wise so they will round them up once a year and pull a few out to be sent to other herds and ship some in so they don't all become :downs: inbred. You can sign up to ride in the roundup if you like that cowboy thing and own or can borrow a horse.

Also my great uncle used to have a herd and we got buffalo steaks and ground buffalo. He used to because he's dead now and I don't think he can keep up very well.

Is global warming fake because:


"CO2 from human industry is a drop in the bucket compared to what is produced by volcanoes and the processes of life"
"H2O vapor is more important than CO2 in trapping heat"
"Earth has gone through periods of warming and cooling"
"Current global temperatures are lower than they were 2 thousand years ago"
"Measurements of rising temperatures are based on data from urban weather stations"
"Global climate models cannot accurately predict current conditions based on past conditions"

Geology professor who reads Breitbart taught this in class, and demanded people know the alternative science from environmentalist exaggeration.
Hockey Stick Graph IS FRAUD AND A CRIME AGAINST HUMAN PROGRESS
Environmentalists refuse to have their data public! UNTIL heroic hackers released their fake data from the emails incident a few years ago.

I've been wanting this thread for awhile, thanks. Now I can finally talk about how Batman relates to everything political without it being a derail.

edit: I don't get why Obama tries to appeal to conservatives (I know he's a conservative by our standards) on anything. The guy could literally fire undocumented children from a canon back into Mexico (whether they're from Mexcio or not), create a wall of wildfire to protect the border, force every employer to use E-verify and people would still blame him for whatever they don't like. My aunt was actually bitching about how Obama had something to do with her being summoned for jury duty on Facebook the other day.

Also whenever he issues an executive order I just can't help but laugh every time someone mentions that it only applies to federal workers. Sure its good to set an example I suppose but I just can't help but feel bad for how impotent the right has made him.

Anyway, right now I kinda wish Hillary (sigh) had won in 08 and Obama had waited until 2016. He would have cleaned house in 2016 and might actually have been in a more welcoming environment.

Also, I like TAS Batman. It's very clear in a lot of quiet ways that Bruce Wayne does quite a lot to clean up Gotham the hard way, from social services to giving felons a second chance to college scholarships to encouraging public works from other rich people to environmental sanctuaries to taking over and cleaning up more toxic companies.

As a wealthy individual why should I care? My wealth is well diversified across the globe so if America goes to poo poo because of X I can just leave. I mean lets see, things have gone to poo poo and now that it's obvious that I'm partially to blame my choices are:

1.Stick around, make some sacrifices to help fix the problems I helped cause. Maybe pay higher taxes, invest in companies that will help fix the problem, encourage others like myself to also give back and ostracize those that do not, live a life of semi-luxury or even a median income life to set an example, etc.

2. Leave with my family and continue to enjoy my sweet life of relaxation, driving nice cars, banging super models, snorting coke and ordering people around.

nah. the two main separatist parties in flanders only have about 35% of the flemish vote or 24% of the national vote. and many of the voters of the largest of the two parties - N-VA - just want more autonomy, not full independence. so nah
