also had a few people come out of the woodwork with the usual "you care about animals too much, what about humans" and two things:
1. it's possible to care about many things simultaneously, you should try it
2. the only people I ever hear say this are assholes to other humans anyway lmao
i hear you but i hope that's not the point that's coming across here! i just don't think loving animals and loving humans are mutually exclusive, that's all
