And that’s such a hard concept to sympathize with, right? We only know “asphyxiation” when we’re being choked. And that’s not what whales would be experiencing.
YALL SHOULDN’T READ THE NEXT PARAGRAPH WITHOUT BEING READY FOR IT
I’m sure it feels urgent, though. Imagine the horror of an asphyxiating whale with a broken tail, seeing the mirror above and knowing it just has to reach it… the desire to release their blowhole, stubbornly closed no matter how they scream. They do scream. They feel pain, and panic. They know and lament loneliness. They even have words for all this, we think, we just can’t really decode it properly yet.
These animals are being killed by the policies of those in power. They will die alongside us, perhaps before and perhaps after some but this disaster won’t care. The ocean is dying.

What did I tell you about giving people anxiety
If you’re going to do it, do it properly, for a noble cause?
Sorry :( it’s a constant for me but that doesn’t mean other people need to be struck with it
Still, I’m proud of the mental image
