Some sanity.
I call this one “American Politics”.
I studied plant signalling/phytohormones during my MSc, it’s genuinely fascinating but it doesn’t imply consciousness. Cows have a central nervous system. Beyond that, it’s magical thinking. You are making an unfalsifiable claim, and that’s fine, but please acknowledge that you are adopting a faith-based position here. I could claim the sentience of crystals and be similarly obstinate when challenged.
Plants do have incredibly impressive defence mechanisms, but that doesn’t mean onions are crying when you cut them. There’s no central nervous system, you are anthropomorphising. That is very common whenever this topic comes up, but it really is magical thinking, and the garden is already magical enough without imagining fairies at the bottom.
No, Lemmy is shit.
Thermostat sentience.
If we all work together… why not.
I think a better word might be needed, to be honest.
Tell me about this chin.
This was very funny when it happened, and has since become a standard political tactic. Just repeatedly not an answering the question with no shame. It’s truly genius.
You just saw someone using it exactly like that, so the answer is yes.
I actually find this guy’s face more annoying.
His voice is too annoying for me to listen too, unfortunately.
