Or maybe the puma is deaf now and can't hear the scary booms any more because guns are extremely loud. I'll never understand how soldiers got through WWI&II without modern hearing protection.

Mostly with extreme hearing loss
What boggles my mind is that whoever invented the first firearm (or cannon, I guess) fired one shot and didn't stop then and there to invent reliable, easy-to-use hearing protection before going back to firearms. A bicycle tube inflated to ~36psi blew up less than a foot from my ear once and I was stunned for a minute. It felt like I was about to throw up, and everything sounded extremely muffled for 5-10 minutes. Why would I ever want to do that again?
Because you can kill people you don't like and colonize a fuckton of places, worth it
yeah, but that's kinda cringe tbh
What? I didn't hear you over the atrocities I'm committing in the colonies
