Do people think that just because these ICE rounded up folks are being burned in concentration camps it's all okay? Have they, for one second, considered how utterly they are ruining lives - the lives of the kidnapped and all who love and care about them. The harm runs so deep. It's f'in outrageous.
Earlier this year, the United States deported 252 Venezuelans to El Salvador and paid its government to imprison them. Now two human-rights organizations have found that all of those men were physically abused, Conor Friedersdorf writes:
What the Deported Venezuelans Went Through in El Salvador
Forty men sent to El Salvador by the Trump administration have shared disturbing accounts of abuse by a regime that America paid to imprison them.

I recently saw a rat near my back porch. Poor little thing. Probably came up from a bayou. My only thought was where could I get a Have-A-Heart trap - so that my complex community doesn't freak out and kill it with poison. Such a small shift in thinking can have so many positive consequences.
A report released this month by the #California Dept of Fish and Wildlife found that rat poisons are still unintentionally poisoning wildlife at high rates.
The powerful anticoagulant #rodenticides were found in 95% of mountain lions and 69% of nontarget wildlife tested.

I'm of the opinion that if people took proper care of their pets there wouldn't be feral cats. If NZ really cares they'll follow through with a program granting free spaying & neutering for cats and dogs.

Like so many commenters on this video I think we should: 1) Fix Earth (at least stop f'ing it up and let her heal), and 2) Send Elon to MARS. I have more vicious things to say about #2, but will be nice and keep my mouth shut.
