White people will look you dead in the eyes and tell you that Palestinian children deserve to starve and then go drop a band on 3 different types of raw chicken feet and salmon fins to feed Bark Ruffalo, their goldendoodle with an uncannily human expression
i was on vacation with family in a "cool" capital city (tbh, it was p cool) but anyway there was a "cat cafe" near the hotel where my sister+her kid wanted to check out. they didn't partake, because apparently it costs like $20/person/hour to just go inside and drink drinks (~$10/drink) and if you want a cat to come over to you, you have to pay someone to bring it ($10) and then pay again to give it treats ($2/treat).
when they articulated all this to me, i was like, "wtf, was there even anyone in there?" and they said it had a few people in it but was mostly dead. like, i can see the appeal of being somewhere that there's a bunch of cats that might come up and hang out, but i cannot imagine paying for that, especially so much. like do the cat's cough off golden hairballs?
i used to live near a really cheap restaurant that had like a dozen feral cats always hanging around out behind it. i could get a meal and a few beers and all the cat attention in the world for like $6.
