Species within the genus Miratesta include:

gollark: Are you voice-typing?!
gollark: I don't think this contradicts my point.
gollark: You might think that it would be good to under ethical system #129124124, but human rights are defined by what governments happen to like, and governments sort of kind of vaguely like what the populace likes, and as it turns out most populaces disagree with bodily autonomy, so things.
gollark: I do by divine right, but that's not relevant.
