Yeah. But not on the bed.

Except some times on a lazy Saturday morning and they're being annoying because they know it's normally breakfast time now, but letting them up on the bed is a super special thing to take their mind off it. But they know it's not a "You just get to do this whenever you want" kind of deal now, it's invite only still. And they can't take up all the room or start to clean themselves, shaking the mattress while the humans are trying to sleep in.

Farts are an instant kicking off too.

Less than accurate. Where is my wife's boyfriend? Can't have him out in the cold!

And how cute would those velocibears be? Ursaraptors? Bearsaurs?

I mean HONESTLY!😾

It makes me very very happy to find a Dungeon Crawler Carl reference out in the wild.

I mean, the meme here is satire, no idea what it originally was supposed to be, someone slapped on the message about atheists for a joke.

But yeah, broadly it IS accurate to how conservatives feel about the kinds of families we want, the kinds of pets we want, the kinds of food we eat, the clothes we wear, etc. Every change to that normalized order terrifies them, it's in the name.

Feeling afraid of change is fine. Most of us have those kinds of feelings, most of us are going to have wary responses to the unfamiliar. But the conservative base in the US in particular have the worst combination in the world, which is fear of change plus stupidity, so they fall prey to any story supplied to them about what exactly they're scared of and give it no actual thought. All feelings, no thinking.

The Velocipastor (real movie btw)

It's not him, it's his character from the movie where he has a hot redhead girlfriend and a pet velociraptor. It's not the character's fault he's played by a turd.

You heartless monster. I can't say no, so both of mine pile in bed with me.

Patagotitan mayorum, yeah? ;)

We absolutely could have domesticated raptors. Dogs are more than capable of eating us, and once in a while actually do just that, but that doesn't stop us from spending more on their special diets and cute sweaters than we do on our human children.

A wild raptor? Probably not, if you've ever had chickens you know how vicious they can turn suddenly. But you also know how affectionate and loyal they can be. A few generations of selective breeding and you will have the ultimate protection animal. Jurassic Park's representation of them being like fucking Alien and being horrific killing machines with brains designed for unlocking cages is likely a huge exaggeration of what kind of nuanced and intelligent and complicated creatures they were.

I've had wolves, they make terrible pets, but even dedicated predators have a measure of deep loyalty and love for their family unit.
