That’s why humans love bacon and ham so much. Because they’re the closest to what we all long for deep down inside: the succulent taste of long pig.

Reddit’s reaction to the woman beside him not wanting to kiss a stranger:

Pretty sure the Holocene extinction is common knowledge. Got any counterexamples?

Except that the GOE caused a massive explosion in biodiversity by increasing bioavailable energy supply. We’re doing the exact opposite.

You’ve got to be fucking kidding. You’re kidding, right?

“As a species, humans are pretty awful for the rest of the things living on this planet.”
