This sadly isn't real, I know because I have been chasing this man up the west coast with a shotgun for the past 3 years and I will be the one to kill that bastard
my train coming or...?
I love seeing list memes where someone makes a "le cool people vs le cringe" and they obviously skew it so they barely scrape by into the cool kids club

To a non-american, every Marvel movie is a 3-hour foreign film. Think before you post.
Supposedly someone donated $1mil to the project to eliminate predators/turn them into herbivores. Imagine the good money like that could have done for actual conservation projects instead of this nonsense.
Why support actual conservation when you can fund nonsense like this instead? 😬😬😬
In the UK there are around 430,000 foxes. Each fox must eat an average of 8 rodents a day. That means you would need to release over 3.4 million of these robotic rodents every single day just to feed one species in one country.
Now scale that up and imagine how many billions of these you'd need to feed every predator in every country. It's beyond stupid.
On the flip side, if one of these robotic rodents = one real life mouse or rat saved:
One female mouse can have up to 10 litters in a year, with numbers ranging typically from 5-14 pups each (average number that survive is closer to 7 or 8, but we'll go with 8)
Numbers are very similar for rats, so we'll just go with the above numbers.
Since obviously predatory species aren't taking out every single rodent ever, we can assume that each of these rodents has the capacity to become a breeding pair with a rodent that would otherwise not be eaten.
So if these robots fed the foxes of the UK and totaled to 3.4 million robots in a year, and each robot is equal to one mouse or rat saved...
Roughly 8 pups per litter x 10 litters per year = 80 new mice added to the population per breeding adult mouse per year
3.4 million rats/mice saved from being eaten by foxes x 80 new mice added to the population per breeding adult mouse saved = 272,000,000 (272 million) new mice/rats added to the population for every year this project is a success.
And this is just the number OP stated for foxes in the UK alone. There are many other predatory species living in the UK (both native such as owls and other raptors, and invasive such as domestic and feral cats), some of which rely solely on mice or rats. The amount of mice and rats consumed total by every predatory species in the UK alone is probably in the mid-to-high millions, and as I'm sure everyone knows, there are still plenty of mice and rats in the country. If the predators of the UK would be made to instead start hunting robotic mice and rats, we're talking potentially many multiple billions of new mice and rats added to the breeding population every year in the UK alone.
That's not good for people, since wild mice and rats can carry fatal diseases, but it's also not good for the wild mice and rats as they suddenly need to compete even more heavily with each other for resources and have more chance of spreading diseases and parasites to each other. Not to mention, with all of these new rodents needing to eat, we would see significantly more crop damage and loss, and there would be significant damage and loss to native plant species as well. Also, this should go without saying, but predatory species typically physically are incapable of surviving solely on plant matter, especially when relegated plant matter found in their natural habitats.
This entire project, if ever taken seriously, genuinely attempted to be implemented, and even in some slight way were to become successful, would be a disaster and a death sentence to the whole of nature and ecology as we know it.
Oh don't worry, they have a solution to that!
They believe they can control the fertility of every single wild animal on earth using birth control and/or biomedical engineering. Cause that's totally feasible. And even if it was somehow possible, imagine the costs of having to give birth control to billions and billions of animals worldwide. Where would the money and resources from that come from? Is that really the best use of government money when there are millions of people starving and living in poverty or on the streets?
That is actually literally the person who made me question if my emotional responses to someone "being wrong" were normal because there is NO possibility any of their plans will ever happen and they're not yet harming anyone by just having this positively absurd ideological obsession, but instead of being funny or silly to me I violently despise them for thinking this asinine ridiculous garbage and for not loving nature exactly the way nature is. Having talked to a couple of their followers they aren't a joke and I want them to die of flesh eating bacteria.
"i hope jakey dies" is such a funny meme because it makes people SO upset
How funny would it be if tomorrow the Oppenheimer movie retroactively and magically changed to be four uninterrupted hours of innocent people with their flesh charred by nuclear fire dying in agony in a wrecked city?
Sorry for being a hater you guys it’s just that I’m a sanctimonious, vainglorious buffoon that thinks making memes out of the mass murdering and ongoing poisoning, starvation, and exploration of men, women, and children that were literally just living their lives is fucking disgusting.
It’s in days like these in which you can tell that the majority of this website are white USAmericans of the most annoying variety. Sorry but some of us (Europeans, Asians, Latinos, USAmerican POC and Natives) have a history of being bombed and even nuked, more often than not by the USA itself.
But don’t listen to me. What do I know; I’m just a killjoy that hates fun! Anyway let’s look at this beautiful painting
making a new hardline political stance for myself out of spite that website moderation is morally wrong. no human being should be subjected to a daily stream of traumatizing content like that
genuinely though ive become extremely bitter recently about tumblr users constantly bitching about moderation on here. its fucking entitled, people talk like they're genuinely unaware that moderation requires paid human labor. im sorry the people whos job is to review the worst posts on this site for 8 hours a day aren't doing a good enough job for you and apparently dont deserve any of your money, but you sound like a dick
complain all you want but please try to have a single modicum of respect for the human labor behind moderation. the internet is a cesspit and these people are on the front lines of the worst of it

calling every gnc cis person you see an "egg waiting to crack" even as a joke is not cool or funny at all actually it is extremely invasive and weird and you are just reinventing gender roles but making it "progressive"
is it just me or is this is an extremely weird thing to say about a random stranger based on nothing but a snippet of an eavesdropped conversation

a good bit people do on here is leave wildly incendiary comments on a post and then get really upset when op is rude to them
i cannot possibly overstate the psychological damage of growing up being abused in a way that is considered so disgusting as to be literally unspeakable and treated as such.
every single person on this website and everywhere else needs to take a long fucking look at how they talk about and think about csa and how it might fucking feel to have things that literally happened to you be considered so taboo that frank depictions are declared obscene or so disgusting so as to be talked about only in whispered tones
CAN YOU EVEN BEGIN TO CONCEPTUALIZE THE MULTIPLICATION OF TRAUMA THAT COMES FROM YOUR ABUSE BEING TREATED LIKE RADIOACTIVE WASTE THAT MUST BE BURIED LEST IT CONTAMINATE OTHERS BY ITS VERY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT DESCRIPTION OR EXISTENCE
“Bee Movie” kinda runs on the analogy that bees are Jewish people and that mosquitos are black people, but no one has bothered wrangling with that because it’s not even in the top 3 strangest things going on here
the one consistent conclusion from this week’s SCOTUS opinions: the US college paradigm is fucked up
Republicans and Democrats both agree that Harvard should be selecting America’s ruling class when they’re 18, that it should be based on criteria where the children of rich parents have huge advantages, they only have a slight disagreement on the ethnic makeup that ruling class should have. They both agree that Harvard should get hundreds of thousands of dollars for doing this whether or not their graduates get any actual benefit, but disagree whether if someone tries and fails to get into the ruling class the money should be paid by that person or by taxpayers.
