there is a difference between droping red numbers representing magma on Es representing elves, and finding it hot when a girl moans like a retarded seal

To put it simply, Dwarf Fortress is the Black Metal of video games.

I feel really sorry for the bees having to fight an adversary that has evolved to demolish their entire species with ease.

Then I feel awesome that the underdogs can still win with teamwork and unconventional tactics:

Different type of bee, but awesome nonetheless.

I'm sure everyone here has seen it, but I guess it's on topic.

Japanese bees.

Say it, repeatedly.

Anyways, really cool, the European bees really could use some heavier hitting weaponry, tank bees or maybe berserker bees that dual wield other bees like big bee-flails or something.

Also the Japanese bees made me think of Skyrim, a lone dragon attacks an unguarded village of sheep, as soon as it bits into one of them BEEPILE. Then they smother him with their numbers and a Beevakhin apporaches to absorb it's soul and gain it's power of awesomeness.

So, 1000 cats versus one Bronze Colossus? I must see these all in a DF light

So I'm watching the documentary, it's called "Buddha, Bees, and the Giant Hornet". It's really interesting, it's about giant hornets, domestic bees, and wild bees in Japan, and this Buddhist monk who keeps wild bees, which is really tricky since they like to pack up their hives and leave if they feel unsafe.

He has this really interesting method of attracting them. This guy is just really... zen.
It's nice.

Interesting stuff, that. I wonder how those gigantic wasps would fare against Africanized honey bees...
