  Where is my grip on reality (not socially comfortable consensus delusion, but reality) failing?

    “Abandon your friend and steal their cat.”

    That’s crazy.

      Probably wandered here from Reddit. The cat groups there are wild.

        I’m not sure, but I think they prefer the term feral.

      It was half joking, but realistically, the cat is basically innocent, stuck in the care of a person who refuses to listen to reason in favor of their irrational beliefs, like a kid raised by a religious zealot. I won’t actually say the poster should go commit whatever crime cat kidnapping is, but I would say their friend may not be capable of making sound decisions, which inherently makes them untrustworthy, which makes their friendship dubious. If you can’t trust someone, they’re not really a friend.
