    I sometimes feel bad that animals that know how to use word buttons and iPads and all these interesting new technology things will never be able to pass their knowledge down to other animals in the wild and I wonder sometimes if animals as a whole would be smarter if we would just share our smart pets with the wild animals so they can learn good stuff

            … oh yeah, I think it might lol but the smart animals that escaped and taught wild animals in that movie were being horrifically abused… so we could have a planet of the cats I guess, where everything was nicer? One would hope

              Sigh, If it’s not animals it’s gonna be aliens, clones, or robots. Only hope is Some tech boi or evil captialist learns the lesson of not being a jerk before they ruin it for humanity.

              Did you see the prophecy documentary 3 robots? Once cats gets thumbs, it’s over.

      That’s basically why humans are OP. A maxed out teach skill, paired with a high social base stat, is incredible synergy. Tool use is just a bonus.
