“Chinese restaurant”

Years ago in college, I went with my then-GF to this good Chicom resto among students. I ordered orange chicken’ with chow mein and I swore she said “olange’ cat”.

So, West Taiwan, formerly known as China, is killing cats to fight the collapse of Evergrande.

Makes sense.

Based on how cats look at people, I think it safe to assume they are always looking for new and exciting ways to kill us.

The exact reason COVID will be with us forever, it has animal hosts. Kind of like the flu, eh!

Demonic Fauci and his communist comrades should be in hell already.
