What the hell is wrong with people?
October 25, 2021 at 11:36 am
Thought this would be a good topic for those 'WTF were they thinking' kind of things we find in the news.
As a true crime junkie this one even unnerves me.

Three abandoned children and the skeletal remains of a fourth person who was likely their sibling were found Sunday in an apartment west of downtown Houston, authorities said.

I'd've probably died in the process of (at least trying to) killing those assholes, defending my family. Those people are just sick.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I'm back to ignoring all news sources for this very reason. People are reprehensible.

This might answer some questions:
And the sad thing is I’m disappointed that we somehow haven’t reached the “not even bothering to procreate” stage. Of course, if the math I’ve done is any indication (given that the time between the first and last births was 496 days and that the average age of mice’s first mating is 6-8 weeks [I split the difference and made it 7]), that shit takes about 10 generations. Although I guess we’re, what two or three generations since Calhoun published his findings?

It's the reprehensible that get good news rating so they are over-represented.
