you mothers fucker don’t need to make us scroll forty goddamn linear feet.
Yesterday I was birding in a wildlife refuge and this huge dog without a leash and no owner in sight ran up to me and started barking at me, and getting closer and closer. Literally thought it was going to pounce. It had a collar, but no owner in sight. I’m not afraid of dogs, but I am afraid of any large animal that’s angry and has the capacity to knock me over. After about five minutes of this dog growling at me and me trying to calm it down, its owner finally showed up, and was like……“oh haha I thought he was yelling at an animal.” As if it would have been normal and fine for the dog to attack the wildlife.
It’s a wildlife refuge. There are endangered species that live there. Dogs are required to be leashed at the park…you know why?? Precisely because dogs like to go after birds and other small creatures.
This isn’t even the first time I’ve dealt with unleashed dogs….
I was at a beach, collecting seashells and birding, when a huge pitbull ran up to me growling. Thankfully it didn’t attack and just sniffed my bag, but the owner was just a speck in the horizon, didn’t care that their dog was running around doing god knows what. The dog could have gone after the wildlife, too.
People letting their cats roam free outdoors 🤝 People that let their dogs run around without a leash:
Endangering their pet, the environment, and other people with their stupid choices
Keep your dog on a fucking leash
To all the people saying “keep your cats inside”
NO THATS SO CRUEL. UNLESS YOUR IN A CITY THEN IT MAKES SENSE.
But in the suburbs or the countryside? Let them out just make them come in st night and you’ll be fine.
You know what’s cruel?
Native songbird and rodent populations going down because you can’t keep your apex predator indoors.
Your cat getting its guts strewn all over the street or your cat getting all kinds of diseases because you can’t keep it inside.
If you can’t keep your cat sufficiently enriched indoors, you’re a bad cat owner. Period. If you can’t keep your cat enriched indoors, don’t get a cat.
Keeping an outdoor cat is animal cruelty.
Coyotes kill countryside cats. You are putting your cat in a situation where they can easily get brutally killed by a starving coyote. Do you want to come home to the half eaten remains of your cat on your porch? No? Then keep your fucking cat inside, dickass.
Tumblr is the last place online where you can basically say whatever you want but you’re not gonna come across an ISIS beheading video or a video … and this is a real example I’ve seen on discord… of American soldiers standing over a pile of bodies of dead black men with audio in a warped voice saying “fuck *insert the plural n word here*” and the text says “total *insert n word here* death” in huge white letters. So, I feel safe knowing I won’t be subjected to that horrifying situation here like I might be on discord but I can say “I’m transgender and if you call trans people groomers just for being trans you’re a bigot and should die immediately.” Without getting my account murdered or doxxed and harassed.
Fuck you anti bird architecture who gives a shit if a little guy makes a nest on top of your stupid Starbucks sign
They put anti-bird spikes on a church in my hometown, so the only place on the building where birds can sit is on the very top, on the cross. So the cross is now covered in bird shit
