I would think with the advances in DNA research that animal testing would be considerably reduced or eliminated. I also don't understand how testing on animals correlates to substance toxicity in humans.

You can either test toxicity on animals or test it on humans. They should create an especially uncharismatic dog breed to test with.

I feel so marginalized by the universe's expanse and society's domination of my individuality. I _want_ to be a good person. I just have never been told how. Can't help every bum, can't shut down every evil bloodsucker. Life feels so meaningless when the moles just keep popping up as you hit them. Aye, I upvote, wish I had the means to do more, it seems like my existence is split in two..startups having to do a lot with it.

How to help the world?

Step 1) Make lots of money Step 2) Influence

It always feels like I'm trying to "scheme" morality, and it hasn't worked out so far, since I'm not rich enough to do shit, in terms of making real change.

This video about the toolbox fallacy is so apt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sz4YqwH_6D0

I keep waiting for step 1 to complete so I can then "live life after life."

Like a hamster on a wheel....
