Last month, we sponsored a clinic on the Navajo Nation!

317 dogs received care, including 49 spays, 50 neuters, and treatment for 35 injuries or illnesses. On a reservation that spans 16 million acres
with only 3 veterinarians, this is incredibly meaningful.

Thank you for making this possible ❤️‍🩹

I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

That would pay for a year's rent for 1,200 people at median city rent.

Man, hating the homeless sure is an expensive hobby for state governments. 🤷‍♂️
In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse.

The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million
Louisiana coerced unhoused people into an unheated warehouse – and paid $17.5m for it
Dozens of New Orleanians were bused to a site with insufficient heating and blankets days before the city is to host the Super Bowl

The backsliding on vaccines is awful but the backsliding on basic germ theory is grim in its own way.

Yes, it's "natural" for humans and pets to eat raw meat. It's also just as "natural" to die from the numerous pathogens in it. That's nature; nature is always trying to kill you and your pet.
