Alt Text: Panel 1: A beaver walks outside a beaver lodge, waving goodbye to his beaver family. His wife says, "Have fun at work, hunny!" Panel 2: The beaver arrives at his workplace: the forest. He looks around, confused as the forest has been cleared. Panel 3: The beaver stands in front of a massive human-made dam, shouting in shock, "WHAT THE FUCK?!!" Panel 4: The beaver returns home, where his family waits. He says, "Babe, we have to apply for welfare."

The Wikipedia page for it is a great read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beaver-engineered_dam_in_the_Czech_Republic

This is some depressing Timberborn content.

What are you talking about, now all the beavers have zero work hours so they can get time at the rooftop terraces, camp fires, contemplation spots, dance halls, etc.
Think of all the spadderdock and cattail crackers they can eat.

Only works in Timberborn because of the lack of capitalism 🥲
We won the 40 hour work week like 150 years ago, and we're still working pretty much that...

Must've been off of work for a few years. Poor beaver was headed back after being on long term disability only to find he had been made redundant. Dam

Any beaver I’ve ever heard of never would put up with that crap. They’d move up stream of that dam and show you what’s what.

The dam is AI
lime@feddit.nu · 17 pts · 139d
why would a popular webcomic that has been running for 15 years and is notably opposed to ai use ai?
OpenStars@piefed.social · 21 pts · 139d
The person you replied to did not say that the artist was using AI, but that the dam was (representative of) AI.
As in it took the beaver's job.:-(

You are not dumb - we just all make mistakes from time to time:-).
