If he's "based out of" Barrie, Ontario, presumably he's not based in Barrie, Ontario, so where is he based? What a stupid expression! "Goes viral in UK because of course it did" is completely meaningless. This link is a prime candidate for 'Extreme Pedantry' on Facebook.

I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.
