Ok interesting, I noticed Fry’s voice first! It smacked me in the face how familiar but aged he sounded! I’ll have to pay attention to Hermes in the next episode.
Overall, I liked the episode! I thought the topical references toward the beginning were funny.
It felt very fast to me though. Maybe just because it was something new, idk, but it felt like it went by so quick.
Fry definitely sounds different, Hermes I didn't notice.
Honestly though, it's not something that matters or bothers me especially with the actual context of the episode. The same timejoke for Benders beer being flat is why Fry's voice aged, for reasons! lol
I kind of took it like time progressed during the pause in the final episode, so even though Professor reset it there was still some advancement based on the atomic calendar.
I’m with you on your analysis. It wasn’t mindblowingly good, but it was certainly good enough to not feel like a band past its prime trying to cash in on one last payday. I do think that Billy West (Fry)‘s voice has aged some as well, but I got used to it after a minute or two and it was fine.
I think when you’re coming back from cancelation…AGAIN, and especially after so long, it’s not like a pilot, but it requires more exposition than a regular season opener. So it was good enough on its own merit, and I’m grading it on a curve as it’s the first episode in a decade and has to do a bit more storytelling drudgery than your average show.
They're catering to the fact that their core audience is getting older and harder to understand fast-paced speech lolol (said by one of those people who is starting to get old)
It was like your loved but never seen extended family coming to visit. You are a little uncomfortable that they’re aging so quickly, but you forget about it and have a good time anyway after a few.
Almost all 32x8 (capable of 1 gig) docsis 3 modems are going to be puma based.
No reason not to get docsis 3.1 unless you are truly cash strapped. That leaves the SB8200 if you’re ok with 1Gbe ports, or the S33 if you want a 2.5 port.
My unpopular opinion… Comcast’s XB7 and XB8 boxes are fine hardware wise. If you’re paying for unlimited data its literally cheaper to rent their modem with unlimited.
I totally get that it seems unfair, but to be totally honest it’s mostly unfair to the cats to be in a situation where they’re living on the street. It’s amazing that some of your neighbors was helping these feral cats but cat colonies like this is really not a great thing for the environment. Cats have extinct many different species. That’s a serious issue for the environment.
My cat Raymond by the way is from one of the many colonies in my country and trust me, I would rather have them taken to a shelter where they are hopefully adopted, than let them stay in such a colony.
These are not adoptable cats, else they’d all have been homed already.
I’m not an vet, but most of the cats should be able to be adopted. These are so called “scared cats” and my cat Raymond was on the street for at least 1,5 - 2 years before I got him. He was taken directly from the street.
Funny thing, I contacted the local animal shelter and asked if I could be a foster home for a cat, and it took them just over the weekend for them to contact me and tell me they had one for me. This was the summer of 2020. This time of the year is high season for dumping of cats on the streets… And well you see the results in this case.
A neighbor of mine started feed a couple stray cats. The population has exploded. Unlike OP’s area, there’s not really any support for TNR programs in my area. It’s horrible for the cats, the neighbor that fed them moved. So, the cats are malnourished, infested with fleas and mites, get attacked by dogs in the backyards. It’s horrible for the homeowners too since these cats are marking their territory which is stinking up the sides of the homes, outdoor furniture and they are tearing up gardens. When I first moved here, there were tons of hummingbirds. Haven’t seen one in awhile and I miss them.
We bought a house that, courtesy of the previous owner, has a very “bird friendly” yard. We also have an outdoor cat that someone dumped in my front yard when she was a kitten. We nursed her back to health and had her spayed. She has lived at my in-laws farm for a few years. We discussed bringing her to our new house and decided that, because she is an extremely effective serial killer, she will stay on the farm. It’s possible to love cats while also recognizing that they can be an invasive species in some circumstances. Their nearly unparalleled hunting skills are an asset to them and a serious threat to the creatures around them.
I live in a town that seems to embrace ferrel or outdoor cats. It’s really unfortunate that I have to consider if I am setting up a bird feeder or a cat feeder in my yard.
Thanks for letting yours live its best life on the farm. The real farm. Not the proverbial one.
Probably not. The problem with catching feral cats is that it creates a territorial vaccum, causing feral cats from neighboring areas to just move in to the now-empty territory. Those cats were neutered, meaning they couldnt reproduce and contribute to the population, but now there’s a good chance that non-neutered cats will move in and create even more cats and just make the problem bigger.
I’d never put much thought into it, but a few years back I was doom scrolling and came across a research paper that talked about the just pure damage feral cats cause. Between 1-3 BILLION birds killed globally, that’s insanse!!
And I like cats but letting them run wild just isn’t the way. I feel that way about any feral animal, or invasive species. Clear them out.
Yeah invasive species are bad regardless of how cute they are. In the aquarium hobby pretty much all of the coolest species are invasive. I’m not completely happy about banning imports for the hobby, but I still support it. That’s just the cost of being a responsible pet owner.
