Saying this to my friends as I drive in my 2 ton steel box powered by liquid dinosaurs across the cemented remains of an old growth forest on the way to my job at the bitcoin mill.

Unless, of course, you're saying that we shouldn't stop one bad thing because we do other bad things.
We should rethink our attachments to miniature tigers.
Or just keep them indoors
I'm not sure what the solution is here.
And do what? Its not the pets that are doing the bulk of the killing.
Please be serious. I read the source that I posted; you're not being clever. Cats don't magically show up from nowhere. Our culture around cats enables and feeds the feral population. If we didn't keep cats as pets, and animal control treated them the same way they treat raccoons, then this problem would be dramatically reduced. Probably eliminated, but they might turn into an intractable urban pest.
But you need a job, you don't need a pet. (Not counting service animals)
You can have both. In fact, you can hire a pet-sitter, which creates two jobs for the price of one.
