A tiny rat running in the grass on Citi Field that someone has photoshopped to be wearing a Mets hat .
This photo illustration is the perfect encapsulation of the banal cycle of animal content that we as a people are hopelessly trapped in, and frankly, makes me sad, because this rat definitely, probably got iced as soon it was off the field. But also, if I were in charge of this broadcast, would I tell the camera person to zoom in on the rat running in the outfield? Yes! Yes I would. Thus, life’s complexities, in this one video still.
