On a related note, the “Cities” episode of Planet Earth is an interesting one. Human cities are the fastest growing ecosystem on Earth, so why wouldn’t our fellow planetary inhabitants want to take our shit when we’ve been taking theirs? |

No, it is about their presence being wanted or not. I don't want to go to a swamp because is infested with mosquitoes for example, mosquitoes were always there. https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/infestation https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/infest
I saw both links pop up as well. I opted to go with the first, standard, book— webster’s instead of cherry picking. The problem is, both meanings are correct. However, the “troublesome” definition is primary.. and look at the example given: 1 to spread or swarm in or over in a troublesome manner shark-infested waters 2 to live in or on as a parasite |

Humans are a disease. You are a cancer on this planet. Edit: Are we so old, you and I, that no one else gets the Matrix ref?
Hmm |

Eh, we see lots of people infested places and they can also live there. The two things can both be true. (Granted the number of sharks needed for this title is a bit low). |
