"actions speak louder than words" unless you’re a writer, in which case you’ll spend 300 pages describing a character’s inner turmoil while they stand perfectly still in a room.

scientists in the 1990s, putting a Get More Purple gene attached to a harmless plant virus into an already purple petunia: please get more purple

the petunia, sensing an apparent honest to god Get More Purple Disease, using the previously undiscovered RNAi antiviral ability to shut down all other purple genes along with it just in case: you put VIRUS in petunia? you infect her with the More Purple?? oh! oh! her children shall bloom white! jail for mother, jail for mother for One Thousand Years!!!!

Theres a flavor of rationalist who sees all the suffering the natural world and concludes that if we knew humanity was going to go extinct we should torch the biosphere first, so the biosphere doesn't go on being a ball of suffering forever. And this is a perfectly consistent position, most animal lives are pretty bad. But I think it's the sort of position that should make you realize you've made an error somewhere. Like, when you derive a formula, you check it on a known example, to see if you made a mistake. Or in physics, you know if your logic leads to a result that breaks conservation of energy or momentum, you've gone wrong. And this is that, for ethics. "The natural world is a good thing to exist" should (imo, obviously you're ALLOWED to believe otherwise) be one of your check-examples. And if you end up concluding that the natural world is bad, then you know you have an error somewhere.

The cat you don't have only appears in photos.

You take pictures of opening presents at Christmas to show your mom back home and she asks about the black tomcat sitting on the back of your couch. "what? We don't have a cat..." but you see him in the photos too.

For years you spot him in the backgrounds and corners of photos taken in your home, until the day you move out, and suddenly all the photos show you alone again.

You're gonna miss the cat you don't have, now that they're the cat you didn't have.
