When the Bonobos learn to read and write they will eventually discover human literature about chastity and will have a societal orgy just to mock us and our ignorance.

I am almost 100% certain that octopodes are smarter than cats.

This is true, I just wish I was set up to have them as pets. Though I'll be on the lookout for jumping spiders who need a loving and intellectually stimulating home.

as certain as i am that cats are dumb as hell, even the smartest octopuses are not really anywhere near that smart, in spite of them almost certainly being the smartest invertebrates. their central nervous system is built in a way that allows for complex responses to change in their environment but not to real directed reasoning.

they are still awesome as hell though

i would love to live in a pristine food-filled forest in a society without modern technology where i could work 6 hours a day to cultivate food from the earth. but thanks to civilization these places will soon no longer exist except as an enclosure you have to pay rent to be a part of
