  • Consequence of being with humans for 30,000 years. Dogs can read human tone, facial, and body language better than any other animal, including our closest relatives, chimpanzees.

    I’m a cat lover. It’s true they can be assholes, but they can be affectionate as well. They’re not nearly as domesticated as dogs are since not only have we only been living around them about a third as long, but they only really started living indoors with us in the last hundred years or so. They’re semi-domesticated.

    The first thing that comes to mind when I hear “English has flaws” is the spelling. Consequence of being a mongrel language.

    I also think it’s weird that we say the adjective before the noun, as opposed to, say, Spanish where it’s the other way around and you say what the thing is BEFORE describing it. “The white…” “The white what? THE WHITE WHAT??” “…wall.” “Oh, okay.”
