    These goats always fascinated me. Like what the actual fuck? Why? Then when they eventually do make a mistake and fall they just like hop down the side of the mountain and/or tumble 100m they just hop right back up like nothing ever happened.

    Most of the times they won't hop right back up, I think, but these educational videos about animals target children so it won't be such a good idea to show fucked up goats or other animals.

    From a natural selection perspective I don't think many goats die by falling.

    I’m just imagining a kids show “this goat is climbing the cliff for salt. Oh no he fell. And he’s now impaled on that dead tree. That’s a a (I don’t know trees) trees! They are native to the region! Did you hear that squish? Let’s investigate. Oh it was these worming things falling! Those are what we call intestines and they help you eat yummy food! Now it calling for its brother and sisters with its last gurgling breath. Don’t you remember a time when you wanted to play with your siblings but they were too busy? Comment below! Now Mr. Vulture is coming to say hello! And he loves eyes! Not like the letter silly! It’s what you see from! Vultures love eyes!”

    Edit sorry I couldn’t help myself: this one is acting strange… let’s take a look! Oh its brain is full of these silly bent proteins. Look at the holes where they like to live! It’s called a prion disease! Can we all say spongiform encephalopathy?! Sound it out, you can do it!

    Speaking of goats...

    I'm scared as fuck of heights but once in a while I torment myself watching videos of Alex Honnold, a freak of a human being who likes to do shit like free soloing El Cap. Watching him do crazy shit is actually kind of soothing, except for one time when he finished a climb on a slope like what these goats are on. It was basically like steps about 1" deep and a foot high; nothing to grab onto, he just had to stay leaned slightly in to the wall to keep from falling off. And I guess hope no wind sprung up. Just terrifying.

    I've done some climbing before (with ropes) and it's kinda fun being in a slab like that where you can lean in and not always need to have a hand on the wall. But fuck that guy and no ropes. Even watching recorded videos of him doing things makes me incredibly nervous and uncomfortable. I don't think we should be encouraging what he does the way we do.

    I really wish they wouldn't do that. :(

    Sometimes one falls down, but that's rare.

    Is it just me or does the first image look like AI?

    But... this is older than AI?

    [Also wrong, disregard too]

    I was probably wrong

    You were not, I was.

    I know I'm stumbling into "old man yells at cloud" territory here, but they could have just said "you're".

    There's something really off-putting about people talking like this on the internet when there's like a 95% chance they're an educated white person.

    I can't succinctly put it into words, but it often feels downright racist.
