I scoff at your notion of nature being brutal only sometimes. It's always brutal. It's unfeeling, and bloody efficient.

Someone needs to do some camping or survival holidays.

The moment we step out of what our modern civilisation so generously provides is the moment we are humbled. When your money means nothing and all you have is a proverbial big stick you come to realize just what an awesome life we're living normally, far from the horrors of truly being part of a food chain, drowned in food and mostly one-use items of uniformly high quality, protected from the elements to a degree that we might as well live inside a space station. We have so much free time to think of awesome things because essentially we created our own space-time bubble to live in.

Without our social aspect, without others to provide when we can't, we are barely able to survive.

I mean, just look at this, this is nature in a nutshell:

And that is how we deal with it.

It's strange. Saw those pictures and that post and everything just clicked together and formed that rant.
This one didn't fit, though.

I guess I could have included it in the "nature is a bitch" section, under the assumption that nature = universe.

Also, I want to go camping again. Just sold my tent and stuff since I'll be moving soon and have no space in my new apartment. :'(

Nature's pretty brutal sometimes.

Quote

In Japan, beekeepers often prefer European honey bees because they are more productive than the endemic Japanese honey bees. However, it is quite difficult to maintain a captive hive of European honey bees, as the hornets will often prey on the bees.
Once a Japanese giant hornet has located a hive of European honey bees it leaves pheromone markers around it, that within a short time attract nest mates that quickly converge on the hive. A single hornet can kill forty European honey bees in a minute and a group of 30 hornets can finish off an entire hive containing 30,000 bees in a little more than three hours. The hornets not only kill the bees, but also dismember them, leaving heads and limbs behind, to finally return to their nest with the bee thoraxes which they feed to their larvae. The hornets also gorge themselves on the bees' honey.
The Japanese honey bee, on the other hand, has a defense against attacks of this manner. When a hornet approaches the hive to release pheromones, the bee workers emerge from their hive in an angry cloud-formation with some 500 individuals. As they form a tight ball around the hornet, the ball increases in heat [47 °C (117 °F)) from their vibrating wing forming a convection oven, as the heat released by the bees' bodies is spread over the hornets. Because bees can survive higher temperatures (48 to 50 °C (118 to 122 °F)) than the hornet (44 to 46 °C (111 to 115 °F)), the latter dies.

I believe the footage of the japanese bee defense was in the same doc as the cut youtube clip is. Its really cool and makes you understand how introducing a single foreign species into an ecosystem can devastate it.

It really is. Public decapitations too, like they do it in the ME. That should straighten those lunatics up. I saw one once, didn't sleep for a month, and never killed anyone in my life. Coincidence?!

I'm really not in favor of the death penalty and the only people I think who should be in jail for long lengths at time are people who deserve it. I was just asking because I don't know what foreign law is like in those countries, and yes I know the woman is mentally ill. But what if she wasn't, how would she be treated? How long do prisoners who murder get time in Europe? Does it range?

Death penalty is stupid, giving the criminal a quick and easy way out. *

Let them suffer, and I mean suffer, for as long as possible. Turn the hardcore cases into a workforce at maximum efficiency. Sleep should be reduced to a minimum, physical labour to a maximum, and meals should give them just enough energy to continue living and working. If they have enough energy to smuggle drugs and shank each other they're just not being worked hard enough.

I would have loved to see e.g. Saddam and his ilk work themselves to the bones for those they wronged. By god, there's still enough broken shit down there to keep a generation of workers busy. And even if there isn't, there's enough sand to shovel around to keep anyone busy for as long as they live and then some. I'm sure they'd be perfect for sniffing out and disabling bombs and mines, too. Why waste perfectly good expendable slaves by hanging them?

Damn my German genes. Sneaks up on ya, it does.

* Germanys health minister agrees.
