    Weird.

    The reaction to dogs potentially having the virus is going to cause a lot of probably unnecessary cullings in certain places, isn't it?
    This post just made me really sad.

    here's this sign, in the language its readers are assumed to speak, telling them in no uncertain terms that they're swimming into a death trap

    and people disobey it anyway, and not even for treasure

    for fun!

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze
    bad things happen, no one knows why / the sun burns out and everyone dies

    See, none of these signs will ever work. You need to do reverse psychology.

    Just a super creepy sign that is overly effusive "Hey come in here it is really great nothing will kill you here, it's really safe and fun inside and there is treasure, you like treasure right? I have lots of it just come inside here and tamper with this building. Please, just tamper with it. I swear nothing bad will happen I swear."

    When I went cave diving in mexico there was a bright orange guide rope and I still almost got lost several times. It is astonishing how dangerous cave diving is. You swim off literally 10 feet, turn around and whoops nothing whatsoever is recognizable and it's dark and you can't see anyone anymore

    On the bright side, it would just be a drop on the bucket in terms of total euthanized animals.

    I just made myself sadder. Remember to spay and neuter your pets and support trap, neuter and spay, and release organizations

    india is having a huge problem with coronavirus misinformation, including a guy killing himself to save his family after watching videos online (he did not have the virus or even really any of its actual symptoms)

    they also have a ton of stray dogs and not a lot of love for them :(

    the speed of sound in water is so much faster that your stupid human auditory system registers every sound as coming from infinitely far away straight up. so you can't even bang a rock on your tank to call for help when cave diving. yeah maybe they'll hear you but from where

    if you know morse code I guess you can bang out your last will and testament.

    hey maybe a mic array and directional sound detection would be a rad diving watch feature. because it can be done, just not by your brain

    I think if the nuclear waste signs are informative then they've done their job. if people get the message and take it as a dare, or go thrill seeking, or are suicidal, then whatever.

    They have only 3 confirmed cases as well.

    Of course they also just had rather deadly religious based riots in Delhi this week so that might be taking their attention.

    I get forwarded so much stupid counter factual shit by my husband's mother on Whatsapp. It's really not any better in Mexico, and she is smart and upper middle class. I assume facebook is dire too.

    I don't understand how India has these problems with WhatsApp. There must be radical other ways to use it outside of sending baby photos to grandparents and cock jokes to my friends. My use case just doesn't include strangers talking to me, nevermind giving me a delicious stream of post truth news

    I get really mad about whatsapp honor killings and fake news and hate speech and shit in pakistan and india but I should probably avoid weighing in because I really have no idea about the culture or history or prevalence and my proposed technical solutions would probably go over like elon musk's cave rescue submarine
