    I feel bad for the chickens. But they probably live in a hellhole anyway, so maybe they at least get to take some humans with them.

    But this guy in particular can’t be fully human. Swims in sewage contaminated water, eats roadkill, has dead brainworm that’s probably controlling his mind. He’s also like one layer of skin away from being one of the nightmare things from “They Live.”

      Many departments in bad governments are named the opposite of what they do: department of defense, the department of public safety, the department of health…

    I know that if farmers love one thing, it’s deliberately losing a ton of money. I’m sure they’ll be thrilled with this idea.

    What’s more, the mortality rate of H5N1 is extremely high among common poultry, reaching 100% in domestic chickens.

    Cheers to the new pandemic 🍻
