This turner prize entry by Mohammad Sami about hunting speakers to me of man's inhumanity to this planet. Humans rape and pillage the land of everything (or pay for it to be done) and then gave the audacity to call themselves intelligent.

The universe is unimaginably vast, possibly infinite; it is beyond imagination. Humanity should try its hand at being humble. We are a conscious virus on a speck of dust. At the scale of all that there is, the problems of the world mean less than nothing, although “nothing” is also, unimaginable ☯️⚖️✌️

Lately, I vacillate between caring about everything and nothing at all. On one hand, I would like humanity to have an awakening, allowing our short time here to feel worthwhile, and on the other hand, I’ll be OK with it if we get hit by an asteroid the size of the moon. ☯️🌚✌️

Hunts across the country continue to exploit loopholes in the law, using trail hunting as a smokescreen for the chasing and killing of wild animals. Stronger legislation is needed to finally end this cruelty.

Some claim trail hunting is a “legal and legitimate activity” that needs no further legislation. They would even go as far as to say that “any new legislation would be unnecessary and unjustified”.

Evidence suggests otherwise. #TimeForChange #FarcicalFriday
