I taught an octopus piano (It took 6 months) [video]

I've seen humans eat these entities parboiled and squirming.

It's a shaft in the existential backside that this is the best infinity can offer. Are we not embued in it?

What a depraved world that is ours. Given the minds we have to understand yet trading them for trivial vittles.

A tongue our lord and eyes, to taste our way through this cosmic mystery.

A three-year-old... Perhaps exaggeration. It hardly makes a difference. A 0.3 year-old would do, if one wished to be disturbed.

I have always opposed cannibalism but wonder if I've been wrong. We probably should begin the final feast soon, and really clean our plates.

Their only fault: being so gosh darn tasty.

Nature is cruel. Every living thing wants energy for itself, but there's only so much to go around. The leaves cry out in ultrasonic frequencies as they're harvested, and then we add insult to injury by drowning them in salad dressing before we chomp away blissfully. You want to live, just like they did. So you eat. If only the universe had infinite resources to go around, but instead the march of entropy leaves us fighting over an ever shrinking pie.

Yes, but for myself I'd rather eat things that aren't as smart as octopuses.

And as long as the sun keeps shining, the pie stays pretty constant on Earth. The pie is shrinking for everybody else only because humans keep taking more of it.

Pigs are quite intelligent too.

But our modern life is built on the corpses of many, including children, and that pile keeps growing
