My Betta Babies
Mad Max & Lord Humungus
I’m thinking about breeding bettas, and performing a little bit of a genetic experiment. The lighter colored bettas seem to be more rare, similar to dogs or I suppose any animal.

Because we are all working so much to make...

In the article he was described as “an outspoken conservationist (“man cant win much fighting nature”), an environmentalist before the word was in fashion; he called cars “skunk-wagons,” and swore...
Society
Society is the domestication of humanity. How can you call yourself free?
