    Cruelty for cruelty’s sake is humanity’s signature move.

    You should see the animals we didn’t find cuteness or utility in.

    Oh wait, you can’t, they’re dead.

      I mean rats and cockroaches for example are fucking everywhere (I know rats can be cute pets but most of them aren’t). We’re not as efficient an extinction machine as we like to think.

        only poor people have to deal with rats and roaches; which is why they’re still around.

        “deep in the jungle”

        Oh, you mean those ecosystems we cut down to build strip malls in to sell the plastic garbage we make by poisoning the oceans and the air?

          If these liberals have their way they won’t allow us to make plastic straws anymore, think of it! Using straws made out of a different material like it is from the beginning of time until 1965 or something!!!
