birdwatching is an extremely bourgie hobby wherein people buy plane tickets just to go to places to watch birds and like 5000 dollar binoculars and shit.

imagine how awesome it would be to just fly wherever you want to go. i'm not saying there wouldn't be cars and stuff for particularly lazy birdpeople but i can't help but feel that if you could just flap up and coast your way down to the liquor store or circle k to get beer there'd be more bird people doing that. i guess the weight of a 18 pack of nattie ice would weigh you down some but if you built your wing muscles up you could easily do it. i mean, can't most birds carry pretty heavy shit, like fish? i bet they could make a satchel you could could tie around your feathered midriff and you could just put all the groceries in there and i doubt it would be much harder to fly, if you had room to get going but of course there would be frickin runways everywhere for you to run on to get your momentum up. holy shit, i'm getting excited here.


in the winter, the huge clusters berries on the mountain ash trees (inedible for people) in the neighborhood will ferment. flocks of bohemian waxwings will show up in an organized formation to feast on them and then all take off in chaotic drunken spirals. that's my kind of party.

we could do this if we didn't make the fatal decision to start farming and have a bigger population than the earth can naturally support. end technology and civilization now. let's get drunk like birds

without mods we will inevitably end up with fucked up, pornographic bullshit like the above. not endorsing it, just showing you the darkest possible universe.

remember people, don't feel the trolls

but DO feed the birds. if you have the space, a birdfeeder is a great way to attract birds for you to spy on.

im permabanned poster birdwatcher58. i first started birding when i was about 12. by 14 i got really obsessed with the concept of "the dialectical structure of the natural world" and tried to channel it constantly, until my thought process got really bizarre and i would repeat things like "the elevated hay pile on the left is a microclimate made in a crazed attempt to overwinter grapes in our frozen hell" and "have you ever gone birdwatching...on weed??" in my head for hours, and i would get really paranoid, start seeing things in the corners of my eyes, birds, etc, basically prodromal schizophrenia. im now on antipsychotics. i always wondered what the kind of "birding" style of theory humor was all about; i think it's the unconscious leaking in to the conscious, which I realized while birding, is the cause of schizophrenic and schizotypal syptoms. i would advise all people who "get" birding to be careful because that likely means you have a predisposition to a mental illness. peace.
