The fires in australia killed something like half a billion animals, and it's kind of sad, all that potential barbecue going to waste.

We have the means to solve this. With KNAWWWWLEDGE.

What we do is hook up buckets to a bunch of big ass drones and have some sort of contest to see who can put out the most acreage of fire. People will come from all over for the annual "australian fire olympics."

Shit, put a $1 million dollar bounty on "most acreage put out" stream it on twitch, youtube, netflix, you name it.

Fires would be out in a day or three.

Heyyyy, aren't you the prime guy

@theuser

I'm never gonna live that down.

Why yes I am! I assume you have a check for me or something now that I'm *e-famous.*

I puked in my mouth a little bit writing that. Don't worry though, I swallowed it.

Potential barbecue 😂

Ever wanted to slap a kangaroo on a fucking garden grill and just roast the living hell out of it?

Or maybe some rattlesnake kebab?

Oh and let's not forget the emu schnitzel and the ostrich omelettes

LOL yeah getting a lot of lay folks into fire fighting where they will just die while trying to put out fires when water is scarce.

A better idea would be to introduce reasonable policies for controlled burndown so that fires don't get that devastating. Like what the Calis finally did in 2018 when they couldn't deny any longer that Trump had been right on this one all along.

Right now, voting urban environmentalists into office who wouldn't last for three days in the outback has its consequences. It's not like nobody had warned. There was e.g. an article in the Sydney Morning Herald already in 2009, but that went ignored.

@Fast-Nop I mean, if we're talking about stupid people, I'm not against that...

@Wisecrack No worries, I'm going to save you from that nickname. "Hey, aren't the guy that fucked that herd of goats last year? I remember seeing your name in the local journal. Amazing how you kept going even though the police was arresting you..."

@Jilano what a guy, what else did he do?

@Fast-Nop

The sad and unfortunate reality in the u.s. is that theres a lot of good ideas on both sides of the aisle, best typified by the libertarians (though they have their fair share of wackadoo ideas too), and it'll never happen because the machiavellian nature of politics makes people prone to good old fashion divide and conquer.

I think theres a LOT more moderates than anyone realizes, people willing to listen to all sides and genuinely go with what they think will work regardless of who came up with it. Enough for a proper party. But being reasonable never gains any ground or attention in politics.

We're doomed like sisyphus to roll a boulder up hill for eternity.

@Fast-Nop Thats why I added the "bad ideas and where to find them" tag!

@Jilano Man I really made some enemies!

@theuser Well, to give a bit more context to the story, you have to understand that we used to live in a small village. The kind that you see in the movies, you know, all perfect little houses and the like. Truth is, though, that's only appearance.

Anyway, everyone remember a guy or gal when they were younger that was a bit... Les say different. In our little corner of the world, that was @Wisecrack. He always loved goats and used to play with them since he could walk (at 5y/o in his case, not a bright guy even when it comes to motor skills). That sure was a bit odd, but eh, kids will be kids. As the years passed, his passion for those beasts turned into something "different". No one really paid attention to it, though, until we found out what he was really doing late at nights.

As you can imagine, that was more than "big news" around here, and the local radio station talked about it for months! After all, who the hell would be deranged enough to make a sextape with 12 goats while forcing his grandmother to watch it all?!

@Jilano So a goat fucker and later he even tried his hands on prime factorization. What a fucking guy eh?

@Jilano

Don't kid yourself. Everyone knows you attended the goat gang bang too.

Never a more enthusiastic cameraman have I had.

@Wisecrack As true as that may be, don't change the topic! People were asking about you, and no one else.

@Jilano

Could you imagine?

Or worse, being the two girls in two girls one cup?

Imagine one day one of those women is your grandmother.

It'd fuck you up for life.

We'll have to settle for the goat gang bang / sacrifice.

@Wisecrack While I'm usually a curious person, in this case, I'd rather not.
Until we have a reliable way to forget specific memories (a hit on the head doesn't qualify), it's best to not know certain things.

Let's go with the sacrifices

@Jilano

"a hit on the head doesn't qualify"

Why not? I've been hit in the head dozens of times.

Wait, what were we talking about?
