Another fucking bone thief?

AAAAHHHHHHH!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

this is genuinely so fucking disgusting and horrifying. let her rest in peace and stop being a racist piece of shit with a CHILD’S REMAINS

Chiming in as a professional osteologist: this is wildly unethical and unfortunately extremely common. Big shock, but most bone hoarders are entirely ignorant of history and/or racist shit heads who powertrip off the opportunity to own somebody else’s remains. Most are unspeakably boring people who feel the need to pretend to be a witch / cultist / scientist / curator so that someone will think they are edgy and cool, and either don’t know/ don’t care that many older medical specimens were obtained before consent and professional codes of ethics were a thing. Inevitably, academic institutions clean up the messes that these idiots leave behind, and this behavior isn’t victim free. There is a huge difference between donated medical specimens, and whatever the fuck this situation is. Nobody ever consented to be shown off like a trophy by some empty-headed scene kid whose grasp of human decency is even shittier than her dye job.

heres a master collection of the worst screencaps youve ever seen:

and of course, because everyone is a crackhead today i guess:

and of course, at PEAK headassery, we have this:

What the ffffuck

Hey guys not to dip in on the discourse here but selling human remains on etsy directly violates etsy’s policies and i’d definitely not snitch if a couple (a lot) of people reported this.

can my followers who have etsy report this please?

Because it can be a bit hard to find out where to report things (it took me 15 mins on searching around because im dumb) I took some screenshots to help people report her.

1.) Report her shop altogether. She’s selling HUMAN REMAINS. Her whole shop needs to be taken down. I already reported her but here you can see the item that should be reported as well as where to report her shop.

2.) When you’re on the page for the item you want to report, scroll all the way down. Then click “Report this item to Etsy’

3.) This is how you fill out the report form. If you want to go into detail about the product, even better! Go for it! I kept it short to show off the reporting box

Just click report this listing and call it a day! I would recommend only reporting once- we don’t want to flood them with reports to the point where they can’t sort through them to properly take down her shop. I hope this helps!

strongbrew-hamstery:

Petsmart has begun a new initiative in the Small Animal and Reptile sections, encouraging visitors and customers to ask associates to handle the animals. Not only does this put the animals at risk, but the customers as well.

1. Hamsters, rats, gerbils, and many other small animals use the daytime to nap and rest. While not strictly nocturnal (hamsters and rats are crepuscular), many of these animals do require their sleep during the day and continuous agitation is stressful and negatively impacts health. Many terrestrial geckos are also nocturnal.

2. These are unsocialized animals from mills. They are not used to being handled or manipulated by the public. Not only could children mishandle these animals (squeezing, dropping, etc.) they too could get hurt through bites or scratches from a terrified animal. I’ve seen some employees struggle to safely handle hamsters (and heard many stories of employees dropping them!), so I worry about extending this one step further, to the public!

3. There are many zoonotic diseases, such as ringworm, mange, giardia and salmonella that can be spread from animals to people or vice versa. As well, if customers handle one species, then another, they risk transferring animal-based diseases, like pinworms, rodent mites or fleas. Will Petsmart be taking steps to ensure all customers properly disinfect between handlings?

4. These interactions will only further misinformation and spread stereotypes (ie. rats and hamsters are biters). Customers will base their opinions of these animals on the handlings of unsocialized, terrified animals, in a strange setting with artificial lights, loud noises, and during times when these animals should be asleep.

This new initiative is simply unfair to all parties. Animals should not be forced to interact with customers during their sleep time, or placed in a situation where they’re at risk from communicable diseases or mishandling. Customers should not have their first interaction with these wonderful animals in a terrified setting, with unsocialized animals. Staff members should not have to rouse terrified animals from their sleep, and force them to interact with the public.

Petsmart – we want to work with you. We want to help you so that you can proudly stand behind your products, as the forefront of the pet industry. You claim, “we love pets, and we believe pets make us better people”, but you are not listening to these pets, owners, or enthusiasts who are encouraging Petsmart to do better, to be better. Please change for the better.
