    I approve the use of seagulls as the absolute lack of morality, an all terrain nightmare creature born of pure id.

      And they’re pricks when you’re deep sea fishing

    Well is it an American-born cat weighing 300 kilos and with the intelligence of a toddler and the morals of a seagull? Because they could run for president.

    The real sea puppers are sea loins. They’re like angry mastiffs who like to shoulder check anything and everything that’s the same height as them, but seals just want to watch the world burn.

      How to tell apart assorted bag-shaped animals.

        I just watched a 25min video on half dog/half bag animals, wtf?

      Yes, I don’t have experience, but this is absolutely my impression too.

      Seals live in giant colonies, arent invincible, and even within colonies their life is one permanent hustle.

      Lions on the other hand live through hardships more individually and as higher/top predators have to understand the concept of other individuals & their situation (the double edged empathy skill) better, or at least something that is closer to our kin.

      But also the post was from a scientists pov - let seagulls loose on Wall Street & they will just get jobs, neither of those groups would think it sus they are suddenly stealing each others fries.

    Seriously. Don’t mess with seals.

    They’re cockatoos that leveled up water and cold resistance perks

    They certainly can be noisy.

      That had no reason to slap that hard and I’m thrilled that it did.

    The hippopotamus of the sea, and sometimes land.

    If a cat weighed 300 pounds, had the intelligence of a toddler and the morals of a seagull, it would be a dog. It’s just a dog. Seals are exactly sea puppers, people just don’t know what a pupper really is.

    What social media platform is that? Tumblr?

        I see good stuff come from there, but I’m not willing to sift through it to find good content. Needs to be a bash.org best of style thing
