#why weren't the fugitives avoiding it? why was it in the middle of forest?

EVERY fantasy book EVERY scifi novel every starwars movie every post apocalyptic show. I ask, WTF??? The same same question EVERY time. Say it with me - WHERE’S THE FARMING?
#ursula k le guin is guiding me. hand on my shoulder.
#approx 200 generations of agriculturist ancestors stand at the other shoulder and they are yelling
#where does your food come from? who makes your clothes?
#who repairs them?
#how do you store these things? how do you preserve them?
#What fuel do u use to cook how many people are you feeding?
#look. too much of the art i consume comes from the imperial core/global north where most of us have to think about where our shit comes from
#approximately none of the time
#but if u are writing about an alternative world u HAVE to have these systems
#i just watched the gay episode of TLOU and it was pretty good in that regard but in the early part the guy had chickens
#excellent move good work
#and then the chickens never reappeared?? nor the food garden? we only saw leisure activities? which sure u could have some time i guess.
#but what the fuck were you feeding those chickens? did ur big metal fence keep foxes away too?
#and then at the end [spoiler event] WITHOUT LIKE. REFERENCING WHAT WOULD HAPPEN TO THE ANIMALS?
#YOU HAVE DEPENDENTS MY DUDE. YOU CAN'T JUST [SPOILER].
#and how do those quarantine zones work? those walled citiess? we saw the land 10 miles to the east and it was wilderness?
#and weirdest thing there was pasture? grazed pasture? but no animals on it? is this city land?
#why weren't the fugitives avoiding it? why was it in the middle of forest?
#or was it some other self sufficient person? in an underground bunker? who herded all their sheep in when they heard people coming?
#which if u have ever worked with sheep. good luck doing that urgently.
