30 Facts That Might Make You Think “Well, That’s Enough Internet For One Day”, As Shared By Folks In This Online Group That animals get abused by sadistic a******s every day and there’s nothing I can do about it.

And I don’t just mean food industry horror, I also mean casual abuse of pets, abuse by sadistic people of strays for pleasure, out of boredom, neglect of pets, horses being starved to death. Old animals being abandoned, etc.

The animal rights laws are way too weak even in the strictest of countries in my opinion. I can’t unknow it and I can’t do anything about it and if I think about too much I can’t handle it

They are vile people ; two of whom will think twice about being cruel to animals ever again ; let's say I have no regrets and would happily find them again and they would be sorry - again. For a while at least.

Australia is rabies free, and we want to keep it that way. Which is why there was a huge outcry about Amber Heard and her dogs being brought in illegally a few years ago. At least she and Johnny Depp made a wonderful video as an act of contrition (viewers likened it to a video made by hostages at gunpoint)

30 Facts That Might Make You Think “Well, That’s Enough Internet For One Day”, As Shared By Folks In This Online Group There's something like 2% of American prairie left and it's still shrinking. A couple weeks ago Rockford airport was just given permission to expand over Illinois' best and nearly last prairie.

Native prairie species sequester carbon FAR MORE EFFICIENTLY THAN TREES and support more biodiversity. Not to mention their ability to stop erosion.

Not only are we destroying prairie for human expansion, but we also went too far with planting trees and fire suppression, so areas that should be prairie and savanah are just planted with trees because we just assume that the more trees the better.

Don't even get me started about people's "wildflower gardens" that help very few insects and animals as compared to actual native plants.

Check out [The Native Habitat Project](https://www.nativehabitatproject.com/) for more information.


Edit: Rockford Airport, not O'Hare

Imagine getting a minor cut on your hand and dying from it.

Added benefit, our own immune systems have also taken a hit as well because our over use of antibiotics has killed alot of the good bacteria in our bodies that works with our immune system.

He spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair. There was no slow progression, just walking fine one day and completely unable to walk the next.

Edit: I just looked up his obituary (he passed in 2011) he apparently had Transverse Myelitis that led him to become paralyzed

30 Facts That Might Make You Think “Well, That’s Enough Internet For One Day”, As Shared By Folks In This Online Group Hospital-acquired delirium is insanely common in hospitalized elderly patients.

Ever been woken up in the middle of the night by a hospitalized loved one thinking they're at home, in a hotel, in a different hospital, rambling about s**t that makes zero sense, and perhaps thinking it's a different year? I am every night. And I'm starting to lose my f*****g mind.

But you know what's f*****g hilarious? My grandma at 96 handled 2 weeks in the hospital with no issue, whereas my 68 year old father literally acts like a patient with dementia... Maybe he's developing dementia, I don't know. Again, I'm losing my f*****g mind too.

30 Facts That Might Make You Think “Well, That’s Enough Internet For One Day”, As Shared By Folks In This Online Group I remember watching an episode of the show *Monsters Inside Me* where this 16-year-old kid was doing something outside and a fly flew into his eye. It only made contact for about a microsecond, but it was enough time for it to lay eggs. After they hatched they started eating his eye from the inside and he was starting to go blind until a doctor finally figured out what was wrong.

Just imagine that, getting your eye eaten from the inside and losing your sight all because a fly *very* briefly made contact with you. Ever since I learned about this I get really paranoid when there is a fly around my face because of the fact that this could possibly happen to me.
