Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

With the KCD thing I am trying to decide if I should apply the clue by four or let him stay clueless.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

It's worth noting that dolphins do play with other species without consuming them.

Sometimes they play with sea turtles which are not so keen on playing with the dolphins. Non-consensual play, as it were. Sometimes they fuck with sharks, because Hey, they're dolphins and they can fuck with sharks.

And of course many reported instances of wild dolphins playing with humans, and sometimes rescuing them.

I can't imagine kitten fur looks especially tasty to them.

In short, dolphins are like humans and crows in that they're too smart for their own good and really spend a huge amount of time making up their own games to stave off the boredom.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

And otters. Man can they play. I wonder if otters and dolphins were in the same environment how they would interact...

wait, sea otters and dolphins do live in the same environment but don't seem to interact much, if my few minutes of internet searching is any indication. Why not? Seems like they'd make great playmates.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

You mean like these crows?

Exactly: "Yeah, we're just fuckin' with ya."

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

With a big enough touch screen I'll bet dolphins could totally play Angry Birds.

Art Crawl!!!

aurelia - you need to write a grant to test that theory.

What sort of crows are those in the crow incitement video?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I'd like to give an iPad to an octopus. It would have Cashmere's Amazon account hacked faster than Owen.
