The “bats can do calculus” thing is funny, because if you play around with synths for a while, you realize a lot of what humans perceive as “natural” sounds are just us directly perceiving certain complex mathematical things as big gestalt gestures. Like recognizing a multiplied wave as sounding like a woodwind. Hearing individual notes within a chord is basically Fourier analysis. Feeling how naturally a note decays is perceiving how linear or exponential the curve is. The fact that a sine wave sounds smooth but a sawtooth wave sounds nasally, and a square wave has a certain hollow fuzz to it. Is someone doing “math” there? Once you get the flavor of what each of those qualities are like, listening to the world becomes like directly perceiving math. Also, listening to birds becomes very strange. Because you realize some goofy easy weird sound you can squelch out of an analog synth is the same thing a bird is doing. Then sometimes they make a sound you can’t make. What kind of math is that bird on? Makes you wonder.

the "power nap" is one of many evil things that crawled forth from the vile maw of hell known as cornell university. it is a tarp thrown over the divine truth that is the siesta proper.

David Cleary!

i'm in Ireland and the search for that bastards name is still blocked and hidden... the legnths the british go to defend and protect their instruments of colonialism and violence is beyond belief. no justice for the victims and yet every measure taken to protect David James Cleary and his fellow murderers.

Never a better time for the Streisand Effect than when it's a government covering up acts of brutality and evil.

Gift cards are tracked too, in case anyone thought they were clever like that.

Beep boop! I look for accidental haiku posts. Sometimes I mess up.

The absolutely funniest thing about shepherd dogs is that the way to distinguish a well-trained professional herding dog from a random untrained one is that a well-trained shepherd doesn't start herding before being given permission, and stops when ordered to do so. An untrained herding dog is still going to herd. It's just not up to you what, when, and where.

[abstractfairy]

reminds me of this one dude who woke up and found that his dog had rounded up a herd of sheep into his house. He did not have sheep before that

The yawn is what kills me. “Oh. Yeah, i was gonna take a nap. So sleepy honkshoo.”

This is a really good example of appeasement behavior in cats. 

The kitten wants to play, but stops because the older cat has their ears back.  Kitten backs down to show a loss of interest— at that point, you can see the older cat blink slowly.  This is one of the ways cats demonstrate trust and understanding.   The kitten turns away, to further cement a lack of interest in playtime at the moment. 

The kitten lies down slowly, occasionally looking to the older cat for more approval.  Finally, the little yawn at the end isn’t to go ‘i’m sleepy’, but rather as a calming signal.  Cats consider sleeping to be a communal activity.  By settling down and imitating the older cat, the younger cat is displaying ‘yes, I understand Now Is Not Playtime, we’re cool, right?’
