An Open Letter to Drug Companies
Dear Drug Companies,
How does it actually work? Does the Monkey Lobby pay you guys under the table? Do mice secretly transfer money into your swiss accounts?
You can issue lame statements of denial all you want but you’re not fooling anybody. With each week’s headlines (“Diabetes Cured In Mice”, “Skin Cancer Vaccine Tested on Monkeys”) the truth is becoming clearer and clearer: your research is aimed at curing mice and monkeys to the exclusion of other animals.
Deer get sick too. We’d like some cures, please.
We have nothing against monkeys and may all mice live long, prosperous lives. But how about taking a little off the top of the research fund and spend it on something deer related? Perhaps a vaccine for Lyme disease. That would be a nice. Or maybe a glue that sticks to deer skin so we could fasten reflectors to the side of our bodies and cars could see us at night. I’m just spit-balling. Work on whatever you think would yield a breakthrough.
I can only speak for deer but I’m pretty sure the rest of the animal kingdom feels as we do - enough with mice and monkeys. Find some cures for the rest of us.

The humans have a cure for all your diseases, Donald. They call it buckshot.
Lucyy, you’ve hurt Donald’s feelings, and now he won’t talk to us. Maybe his TA is too busy counting those dimes.
