The Barnyard Animals have a new game!
This is even better than watching them shoot boosters

The Dumbest Species Ever?

Humans are fond of referring to themselves as the only intelligent species on the planet. I would argue that ‘intelligence’ is a dreadful burden that will ultimately result in our near-term extinction.
I wrote this to someone named "Nakayama" in Gail's substack blog

Since you are at least aware of the Japanese tradition, I will add the case of the Ikko-Ikki. During the Warring State era in Japan, the buddhist monks and their followers formed self sufficient communities which resisted warlord encroachment. Oda Nobunaga, the warlord who reconquered most of Japan, simply killed them all.
Do you think the Central Authorities, who would abandon the people and hide until the crisis is over, will tolerate survivalist communities? No. They will return to power, and do what they did before, adapting to available tech. Since they are likely to posess the most advanced tech available they will gain enough follower to incinerate all the survivalist communities who will be technologically inferior.

Which is why I like the writings of Fast Eddy, who was practically the only writer worth reading in Gail's blog. I only go there for entertainment and to make fun of the cornucopians who have not abandoned their quixotic ambitions.
Fast Eddy knows how to have fun and he sees things more clearly than probably 99.999% of the world's population.
Wearing helmets a la American Gridiron would go a long way to improving the safety of this 'activity.'
