I'm glad I'm not the only one who has nightmares of slipping on ice and falling down stairs when I sleep. The kicks I do are annoying.

I remember a college conversation with a bio major when I said I wished we could just eliminate mosquitos. She said if there were no mosquitoes it would be disastrous because some other thing eats them that gets eaten by some other thing, I don't remember the details, but essentially it would destroy the whole food chain. I couldn't help thinking that these bugs etc. would probably eat something else because you know, they would be hungry. Just a couple students with a little bit of knowledge thinking they could conclusively analyze the world. And new here we all are on social media doing the same thing.
There's not many* types of mosquito that are a problem for humans. If we wiped out the dangerous ones, there would still be plenty of mozzy to go around
*I feel like it's either 1 or 3

I think "Patch this Bish" is kind of how we got to this point.
Could we also do something about the dark triad traits?
