That's true. Criticizing DDT was off-track.

I wouldn't say that nothing bad happened. America -- particularly urban areas where anti-mosquito measures have been implemented -- has been dealing with declines of important populations of birds and insects, and we don't fully understand the exact causes. Which is to say, we don't know what role mosquito population reduction has played in this. We have vaccines against mosquito-borne illnesseses, which I believe are preferable to eradicating a species and the potentially devastating consequences we could encounter.

Though it didn't "crash" any ecosystems, DDT still accumulates in the environment, where it remains for a long time and causes ongoing harm to insects and the animals that prey on them. Though the most problematic use of DDT by far is in agriculture, its use against mosquitoes isn’t exactly without issue. Not to mention, mosquito populations can become resistant to DDT, requiring more of it to achieve the same effect.

The stereotype is that vegans only eat cats and dogs and babies but it's actually easier to find rabbits and elderly bearded dragons and such since the others are often fed animal products. I typically break into people's homes at night and look for gerbils since they often die in horrible and mysterious ways, so it's actually a mercy for me to stuff them directly into my mouth and swallow them whole. It's so hard to find food as a vegan. I'm vegan btw.

Ethical serial killer here. I kill ethically because if I kill the person myself I get to feel like I'm participating in the circle of life and indigenous beliefs and traditional practices. Because I'm a lion. Like a lot of lions, I'm working on reducing my carbon footprint. And all these veegans say I'm bad. They say I'm a "carnist" which is funny because I have never heard that word before. I've actually never heard any words before and don't know what any words mean. But actually. I am an ethical murderer and I kill less people than the veeegans because I don't eat any farmed plants -- only the people I personally kill outside in the woods. But they're not really like human people because circle of life and indigenous beliefs. It's ethical btw. And I'm switching to solar. Veeeegans think that's bad. But they're actually the bad ones. Because they hate people. I love people because I kill them. Just to prove how much of an ethical murderer I am, I'm writing an entire wall of text about it to look like I have a more informed opinion than the veeeeegans. I'm basically a saint when I ethically kill these people. I'm so connected to the people I kill. It's spiritual. People that don't kill people are too feeble-minded to understand.

What do you mean the post was about cat food? Me patting myself on the back for being an ethical murderer is totally on topic. You guys should now worship at my feet for being more ethical than the veeeeeegans. Feed me comments about how ethical I am. I'm so ethical. Tell me how I'm so ethical. Please. I need it. im vegan btw

My go-to breakfast is mashing up a banana, some peanut butter, and a little plant-based milk to make a kind of breakfast mush. I then add frozen berries, nuts, granola, or the like. It takes like five minutes to make and lasts me until lunch.
