That's one chimp's kink, not a trend.

A couple others tried, but it's Juma's thing

"Meanwhile, in the other group, a male named Juma was identified as the possible innovator of the daring new grass-in-butt variation, which spread to most of his group mates within a week, according to the study."

So apparently it wasn't just his kink. Most of them had a twig up their ass, lol

Like Voyager II leaving the solar system, humans passed Idiocracy and kept going. At current velocity, is it possible this is a papyrus tabloid headline from 25 years in the future?

[–] Bot@sub.community 2 points 2 days ago

Give Africa back to Chimps Movement is on the way

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

If chimps ever take over the world and have a space program they'll send grass to Uranus.
