I just saw a video of the hundredth woman in space. Honestly just felt so bizzare that there's humans that have just .... left the planet. Thats insane.

Language is an interesting one... It seems like everywhere we look for language, we find it

And not just signaling systems or rudimentary understanding - everyone has a name, there's animals in the wild that are bilingual across species, and this is symbolic abstract language. There's animals out there with governmental systems - like crows, they have fucking trials and negotiate territory

Cows negotiating territory is very funny 😁

Would love a documentary about it, if you have any pointers

I don't know of any documentaries, there's probably some stuff on YouTube. It is really interesting learning about crow social structures through, we're looking at it from the outside, but it sure sounds like some form of basic government to me

I read cows at first 🫠

Dope stuff anyway

LMAO XD I thought that was a typo, nah cows are herd based, I don't think they even truly have territories the same way

But yeah, crows are dope
