Really, some kid in Africa just died of starvation or some curable disease, oh look there goes another, why don’t we post about them instead of some person who didn’t really do that much for the planet except amuse us in the “developed” world with our attention span of 2.3 seconds.

Oh and btw, 8 children just died, a mother just ophaned her child and somebody has contracted HIV, now go post about that.
