Now that’s incredibly depressing on top of the hurting people.

I thought we already knew that — have you paid attention to agriculture laws? They don’t even want livestock to be able to turn around on their tiny cages.

I watch Sitting with Dogs YT series, and recently there was a dog in a Cali shelter whose owner went to LA and was disappeared by the ICE. The comments were absolutely vile, and I sincerely hope at least 90% are bots.

That sucks but it’s really one of the least concerning aspects of the treatment of immigrants in the USA.
