205 million of you play games. 597,000 didn’t make it out of a shelter.

No gear check. No enrage timer. No DPS requirement.

Cool. Cool cool cool. Real !#$&ing cool.

Dogs and cats euthanised in U.S. shelters so far this year, running at last year’s rate. That’s about one every 53 seconds.

5.8 million came through the doors in 2025. 597,000 did not come back out.

Anyway. Enjoy the rest of your day.
The counter doesn’t stop when you close the tab.
