Ugly In The Morning posted:Hunting is huge for keeping deer populations down, which reduces deer starving to death or slowly dying from being hit by a car/people being injured when they hit deer with cars. Wait no, I've seen this before. You just need to introduce a species to prey on the deer and that should work out perfectly with no side-effects at all.

2140: hunting is vital for keeping carnoboar populations down which is why I am standing up for the right to own a t42 or greater plasma cannon as conventional weaponry cannot keep the small farmer safe

Since I moved out of the middle of nowhere I’ve mostly been hunting the elusive “paper target” and “clay pigeon”, though.

He ran out of boar to hunt. Tried to find more with a IR camera drone but didn't find any, as far as I remember.

British television relies on the detective format too much. Partly because it's impossible to make a show about sexy lawyers in the UK since they've gotta wear those stupid clown getups. Edit: On further consideration, I don't know if that's an unpopular opinion, I just succumbed to the siren song of this thread to wander in and be a little racist. But, like, it's the Brits, so whatever. Nameless Pete has a new favorite as of 18:34 on Mar 20, 2021 |

Like if they want to talk about difficulties that black and indigenous people have specifically but I think it's way better to just specifically talk about black issues then.

I can respect that, tho I choose not at all. Mixing it into yoghurt would be the way I'd eat if it I was gonna do it, but don't really see any point to it.

For what it's worth re-introducing wolves is promising, at least in parts of the US where the cattle ranchers aren't completely in control of the park system.

I like horror because even if it's badly made it can still be good, either by being funny or by having enough action going on to hold your attention. It's a lot harder to do that with say, a romance movie - if it's bad, it's just bad. I can't think of any drama/romance that did the "so bad it's good" circle-back. Action movies can do it but I think the bad guy being a ghost/demon/whatever spices it up a bit more than just some guys with guns. I'm not a fan of the higher budget modern ones that take themselves really seriously though, like Hereditary/Get Out/Midsommar/babadook etc. I didn't actively dislike them but they could have been better imho if they leaned more into the horror parts instead of whatever point/commentary they each were trying to do.

Horror is probably a higher victim of Sturgeon's Law than anything I can think of other than maybe anime, but that little sliver can be fantastic. While it's true a certain kind of "bad" horror is funny or entertaining, most bad horror is more likely to be something like an interminable Cube rip off from 2002 with a nu-metal soundtrack, some tepid torture poo poo or a boring 70s movie where a kid is maybe the devil but maybe isn't than a gonzo 80s melt-movie or something (which is actually good horror)

Slasher movies are 100% garbage. The reason they all try to be tongue-in-cheek now is because they haven't come up with an original idea in 40 years and think sly winks at the tired tropes of the genre will be enough to cover up for being the exact same thing everyone has seen a hundred times before. Zombie movies are also 100% garbage that have absolutely nothing interesting to say. And before some tries to  "actually zombies are a satire of consumerism" - no they aren't, they were (maybe) in one lovely move from the 70s. In every other case they are just dumb monster bullshit for people who think throwing buckets of red paint around is the same thing as a plot.

Zombies can be cool, but every single attempt to make more "realistic" zombies where it's actually some kind of virus or parasite or something instead of magic is terrible. You can't make realistic zombies. They just don't make sense. A human body that's decaying and falling apart is less dangerous than a normal person. A person who's been driven to irrational, murderous rage that prevents them from taking care of themself is dangerous for a very short time, and then they die or become so weak that they're no longer a threat. And none of these stories shows how the zombies got to be everywhere and how the human population was so drastically reduced, because there's no plausible way for that to happen. It has to start at the point where there are only ten survivors left because otherwise it would be obvious that zombies just couldn't be a serious threat to a modern society.

You have to understand zombies are disproportionately more frightening to a human being who is incapable of walking or aiming in a direction without slowly turning to it.
