    I hope for a vaccine that can kill these bastards, or at least the parasites inside them. Plus an expanded Wall of Flesh.

    Beef is love, beef is life.

      This isn’t caused by a parasite, its caused by the tick injecting alpha-gal that it picked up from other mammals in large enough amounts that it triggers the immune system to create antibodies for it. But yeah, I’d be fine with exterminating ticks.

        And people still ask why the blahaj instances get banned. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

            Oh I love cows, especially medium rare with a side of creamy mashed potatoes and green pepper sauce.

            So no, it’s not that, it’s the vegan proselytizing and general attitude.

          How fragile are you that you find a comment like that offensive?

            Not at all. I just don’t care for the ‘holier than though’ crowd.

              Okay, but there’s a difference between not caring for them and silencing them through censorship. I don’t care for comments about eating meat, but I can handle having to read them anyway.

                Blocking the instance silences their communities, not the people commenting elswhere.

                All the communities hosted on their instance are managed by and for crybabies.

        I assume you are talking about the Wall of Flesh. It is a project to release sterile screwflys into the neck of Panama, and have them outcompete viable mating partners. The screwfly eats the living flesh of livestock, pets, and people, and was one of the worst vermin in North America. Unfortunately, the Wall of Flesh has been weakening in the last decade or so.
