Already happened! Their “eyePhone” was $500, back when that was an absurd price for a smartphone lol (also where the “shut up and take my money” meme comes from) youtu.be/uASUHbFEhWY?...

What a week it's been.

Cartoon panel of Captain Haddock from Tintin leaning on a table, Milou the dog excitedly sniffing his glass of booze.

Captain Haddock: "What a week, huh Puglsey?"
(yes, I'm afraid I know it's misspelled. Should be Pugsley)

Next to him Wednesday Addams from the Charles Addams Addams Family cartoons says: "Captain, it's Wednesday."

Hi. Thanks to anyone who donated. Velcro is through surgery and recovering OK, we didn’t have pet insurance and we spent $4500 to keep her alive. It’s a financial hardship to me but I can handle it by liquidating my retirement account and stuff. If u donate now it would be to recoup the cost.

FML this is going to keep me up at night. More than HALF of pet owners are vaccine hesitant. The vaccine they're most worried about? The rabies vaccine.

Slide from rabies webcast. Image: magazine cover that says "Vaccine" with a green spiky ball (a virus). The slide text says "Sick as a dog? The prevalence, politicization, and health policy consequence of canine vaccine hesitancy (CVH) Volume 41, Issue 41, 22 September 2023, pp. 5946-5950. OWNER PERCEPTIONS: Vaccines are... 1. UNSAFE (37%) 2. UNNECESSARY (30%) 3. INEFFECTIVE (22%) "53% of owners endorse at least one of these 3 positions." Rabies!"

I can't believe peeps ever gave Dawkins the benefit of the doubt. Here he is railing against welfare queens in The Selfish Gene (1976).

Excerpt from The Selfish Gene, p. 117: "Contraception is sometimes attacked as 'unnatural'. So it is, very unnatural. The trouble is, so is the welfare state. I think that most of us believe the welfare state is highly desirable. But you cannot have an unnatural welfare state, unless you also have unnatural birth-control, otherwise the end result will be misery even greater than that which obtains in nature. The welfare state is perhaps the greatest"
Excerpt from The Selfish Gene, p. 118: "altruistic system the animal kingdom has ever known. But any altruistic system is inherently unstable, because it is open to abuse by selfish individuals, ready to exploit it. Individual humans who have more children than they are capable of rearing are probably too ignorant in most cases to be accused of conscious malevolent exploitation. Powerful institutions and leaders who deliberately encourage them to do so seem to me less free from suspicion."
