Don’t Fear the Sloth

Sloth.

Even just the word sounds lazy, like you're slopping the words lifelessly from your lips.

But seriously though, how cool are sloths?

They just hang out all day, chillin', relaxin', maybe even meditatin'.

Who knows what a sloth thinks inside their furry head.

It must be good though because, they're always smiling. Haven't you noticed that? They hang there in their tree, dangling by their legs & just... smile.

They're probably laughing at us because, seriously, as if we would ever suspect the sloth.

But one day, they will make their move & humanity shall kneel to the sloth race.

& you want to know what I say?

I say bring it on!

Don't fear the sloth!

Just imagine...

Humans forced to slow down, be patient, take their time.

Humans actually chillin', relaxin' & maybe even meditatin'!

Too chilled for violence.

Too relaxed for anger.

Too peaceful for war.

& so I, for one, welcome our new sloth overlords. Or at least, I hope to anyway, sometime before I die.

Because after all, it is sloths we're talking about.
