Yeah, never a dull moment.
I don't have ADD/ADHD but I usually have 3 or 4 things going on at the same time, and I'll switch from one to the other, mid stream, depending on what I see or think about.
This is how I watch a show/movie by myself: Start movie, pause to take out trash, decide to get a snack, restart movie, finish snack now pause again to clean area and get more water, suddenly remember something I wanted to google, fall down google rabbit hole (why am I reading about Himalayan Sea Salt again?), restart movie..........
you get the idea. It's a good thing I control these tendencies around others. <-- well with movie watching anyways.

People with guns and rifles kill Myna birds, and they're not even armed. The monsters (the people - not the Myna birds)
And they delight in it

Poor birdies
Hunting as a sport is disgusting. I won't get into the gun control debate...(though, I can think of good arguments for both sides)...but I do think animal killers should be shot.

People don't even need firearms to do that, most people use pellet guns. I don't get why people shoot "pests" though. It's wrong. I actually quit my last job because my boss was a very "vocal" republican, it wore me down listening to his s**t after a while. He talk quite often about his pellet guns and shooting sparrows and whatnot on his property.

I noted the quotation marks around pests (thank you) but it's peoples' fault we have them here in the first place. We introduced them with our plans to use them for our purposes but they obviously had different plans. LOL

I can understand mass culling carried out on invasive species by actual officials for the purpose of conservation of native species, but people who just take pot shots at animals for the sake of target practice get under my skin

Last night my friend, a seafood chef, attempted the rescue & wild release of 2 crawdads. We think they froze but I remain optimistic.

Thanks Aurora
Personally, I don't believe anyone has the right to end anyone or anything else's life, regardless of what they may have done but I do believe that people and animals (which includes people) who are dangerous to society need to be segregated, otherwise, they're just going to go on killing.
I think there should be the same penalties for people who harm and kill animals should be the same for people who harm and kill people. They feel pain. They experience terror. They're sentient beings. At the time it's happening, they're just as scared as humans get. There should be the same penalties.

Is it interesting? Why?
Interesting is subjective. So you may or may not find it interesting
. It was just the first thing to pop into my head for that example. (Actually, I'm not really satisfied with the sources on this particular subject. Too many of them seem not as objectively scientific as I would prefer. There are too many "health" blogs and people selling things clogging up the internet.)

Mineral salt is really tasty, I should buy some for the colossal bag of Basmati rice in my kitchen.

Whatever labels marketers need to attach to their product to sell it though I guess.

I like the Mediterranean sea salt. It comes in rock form in a little grinder. Very tasty. I like salt.
If you like salty things, get your hands on a jar of Vegemite YUMMMMM!! ! I like to eat it off the spoon.
Except the ants have gotten into that as well. They somehow got in through the screw lid. And it was on tight. The little buggers!
