TLDR: the octopus didn’t actually learn how to play music, it just learned to pull the levers for different keys to get food.

Alternatively, make both genders put the lid down. That way everyone has to do the same work to pee.
- Comment on Neither do I, Mr. Raccoon 2 weeks ago:
I knew a guy that was tortured to death in prison by medical staff for having stomach cancer and bothering the nurses too much about it.
At first, before diagnosis, he couldn’t keep food down. He asked for a medical exam and they scheduled one like a week out, but canceled it because his blood pressure was too high. The next one was cancelled as was the one after that. By the time they actually looked at him, the cancer had spread and gone terminal. He was going to die by medical neglect.
Some time later, his esophagus ruptured in the night, and the nurse they called at home to check on him said he was faking over the phone, so they locked him in a TV room through the night because he wouldn’t stop screaming in pain. Around 9am they got him to a hospital but the damage had already gone septic and he died.
On paper, prisoners might have better “healthcare” but I will never forget the horror stories of people who have actually had to deal with the system. The medical people in prisons will not give a single shit about these people’s lives and will actively work against them for being minority inconvenienced.

Their most amazing survival trait is evolving to domesticate humans into protecting them and providing lush environments for them to thrive.
But on a serious note a lot of agricultural plants do not have any of those listed survival traits, not at least not to the extent that people will not use pesticides.
- Comment on Nom nom nitrogen 2 weeks ago:
Most people don’t live near hordes and hordes of hungry bears and wolves, and those that do are typically prepared to defend themselves or flee. Plants can do neither.

- Comment on No Black Friday deal for loyal/previous customers 4 weeks ago:
I think some of their Black Friday deals can be “upgraded” for existing customers, though. Like upgrading from just VPN to Proton Unlimited or whatever it is. But not staying in the same tier.
- Comment on The ancient Greeks or Chinese should have already had words for this. 5 weeks ago:
I’m basically the opposite. I can remember peoples faces very well but have a hell of a hard time trying to remember their names. I’d say I’m a 1 or 2 on this scale, depending imon if I’m fully engaged with the content (like reading a book).

I’d be tempted to just drag them over to the other open area you mentioned and see if they do anything about it.
- Comment on How to get to Santa Claus beard status 6 months ago:
Use beard balms to maintain moisture and health so it looks more full and less scraggly. Trim the sideburns and maybe chops every so often, as those are the main areas that will make you look homeless if they are unkempt.
Once you have some length, trim a half inch to an inch every 3-6 months (less often if it grows slower than that) to prevent and get rid of split ends, which can be a problem.
