PETA clickbait. "You won't BELIEVE how this family's rescue cat was found!" (Tortured, mutilated, and killed.)



The blurred part is an image of the cat's body. I didn't think anyone would want to see it even though it's small.

Hypocrites. That's exactly what a single cat will do to dozens of small animals every year. I don't give a poo poo, just a good way to wind up a PETA nut.

Fairly sure there's a considerable difference between an animal doing animal things and someone choosing to deliberately torture something, dude.

Oh poo poo yeah I know, I was talking the piss out of PETA because a lot of members do think owning cats is evil cos of the devastation they bring to local wildlife. To them, the two literally are equivalent.

That's one thing that honestly baffles me about politics in general. One single, tiny failure can completely torpedo something if it gets amplified enough. It's on the level of a butterfly flapping its wings and causing a hurricane. You might think "what does a dropped football have to do with anything?" but then next thing you know it changes the face of a major election.

Dude called Ed Milliband, the opposition leader in the UK, got plastered all over the papers eating a bacon sandwich. You know when you get a bit of fat caught in your teeth and don't quite bite a chunk off, so you have to chomp a couple more times to avoid pulling an entire bit of bacon out? Yeah, that lost him an election.

So northern England is flooded to poo poo right now. Really awful.

Social media is full of people who think we should divert foreign aid to flood defences. Like there's two jars sat on the Chancellor's shelf labeled 'foreign aid' and 'flood defences', and he can only take from one and add to another. This is of course absurd (what he actually did was take out the flood defence jar and pocket the money).

Even more bizarre, there are people trying to blame immigrants. Immigrants need houses you see, which get built on flood plains. And I've seen at least one link to god's wrath (God is angry becasue we let immigrants into our country, which is funny because I'm pretty sure Jesus was just fine with that).

I met a person like that irl a couple days ago.

I was in the subway and across of me were two women, one with her dog. The other one was with her family or something and every minute or so she's lean forward to look at woman-with-dog and say (addressing her family but clearly more than loud enough that the other woman could hear her) "venerate dogs but slaughter pigs? I don't get it." "I'm sure dog would taste super fine too eh?" "why do people eat pigs but like dogs? It's stupid. I bet dog sausage would be great" etc.

Seriously she must have banged out like 10 or 15 of those before I stepped out at my station. The other woman just kept ignoring her and held her dog on her lap. Probably the best way to react.

So she's saying we should eat loving anything that walks, got it.

There's too much poo poo around for me to find the original source, but I think they claimed they had 150 men, which is more than likely bullshit.

But...she's outside and running away from a car. Is she running towards the house? Is that her hubby coming out of the car, or some guy she's nailing?

The only thing I can think of that makes sense is that she's left the kids at home on their own while she's nailing the guy in the car. Her husband is due back any minute, so she's running back to the house to make it look like she was there all along

Not true at all. In most European countries a significant chunk of the population can speak fluent English as a second language. In most tourist spots around the world, you'll rarely need to use the native language.
