For a lot of us, we had dog or cat expressions around to learn to read just as soon as we had human expressions to learn to read. That is a result of their role as companions to us, and that seems like it'd be part of why it seems so intuitive, it's just another set of smiles and frowns to us. e: why does this always happen to me

MikeJF posted:I wonder if the understandability of dog expressions to humans is an evolutionary adaption to their role as human companions. It also reflects that dogs are social animals that have to communicate with eachother. VVV they're not pack animals. You know what I meant.

Cats have subtle body language, dogs are the body language equivalent of shouting into a megaphone. What's not to get?

If you ask people why they own pets or have kids they'll always give a bunch of reasons like, security, companionship, legacy. But really it's about having your own tiny idiot to gently caress with.

Birds outside my window was making a buttload of noise this morning so I shot this short video (through my embarassingly dirty kitchen window). There seems to be a lot of young ones there so I guess they just learned how to fly. They were zooming around outside when they weren't inventing new cellphone signals. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2a3UvD6V8M

darthbob88 posted:You asked for it. A mentally ill, and possibly also gay, black man shot and killed an attractive white news reporter and her cameraman on live TV, for reasons which he stated in a 23-page manifesto were racially motivated, specifically in response to the Charleston church shooting. There's the obvious tragedy of two people being murdered, but arguably worse is the political clusterfuck that will arise, between gun control/"How dare you politicize this tragedy", racism and RaHoWa possibly kicking off in earnest, the mental illness angle, and something bad because He Gay. TFR and D&D are already at each other's throats about this, and it can only get better from there. Oh that whole mess, yeah that's going to be ugly
