No, no. A zombie apocalypse is exactly what we need right now.

No, that wouldn't be much fun.

I'm just gonna head to the Winchester and wait for this whole thing to blow over.

And then die?

And after that, who knows? 🤪🧟

Nice meme and all but this sort of thing is happening in nature all the time. Amber can get eroded or crushed and will set things free that were trapped in there for a very long time.

Also, zombie fungus is definitely already a thing.

Since corona I know that in the event of a zombie pandemic people would knowingly spread that shit just to own the libs.

I'll take nuclear hell fire, thank you very much. Get it over fast.

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

Wait until you find out about the Soviet nuclear bunker that had a bunch of cannibal ants.

And that researchers let them out to see what would happen.

My conclusion is that polish researchers need to read and watch more trashy sci-fi.

Sounds like that one chapter in Metro: Exodus minus the zombies

[-] Wildmimic@piefed.social 9 points 1 week ago

I find it fascinating that a fungus can take over an ant and use it's body to climb up on grass to get eaten. i wonder how the lived experience of that fungus changes over it's phases; does he get vision when controlling the ant? how does it feel to suddendly have legs when you are a fungus?

I’m no fun-guy, but I don’t think it works that way. When you drive a car, you don’t suddenly feel like you have wheels. I imagine a zombie fungus driving an ant is akin to a person riding a Silt Strider in Morrowind—a body horror vehicular experience.

Not the kinda cars I drive, man.

But ravenous ancient evils sealed in amber is my only kink! pouts lecherously
