Elephants are the smartest land animals on earth and the complexity of their brains is comparable to that of humans. This is also clearly reflected in their behaviour. They are able to communicate with body language within their own species and even with humans, and a recent study has shown they even give each other names.

Dolphins and whales are also pretty smart, so yes, size is a big part of what matters.

their brains are a lot smaller though, so less complex

sonwhat?

they obviously have emotions, just a bit less complex ones, but it’s pretty clear they’re not just robots

None of my friends had Signal and I’ve only been able to convince two of them to install it. They only use it to message me. Some have WhatsApp, but most use only Instagram or Facebook Messenger, which both don’t support my .webp memes.

People who have friends I guess

if you don’t use any social media then sure

by nothing I mean social media other than lemmy

yeah it’s supposedly a better format, except nothing seems to support it

not to mention the belly button that is somehow part of her dress

sounds impressive

please elaborate what this is about?

yeah this is something I can get behind

of course it’s the Netherlands!

why is the rich man green

A few months ago I was following an Instagram page about sustainability and they posted this pic and claimed the trees grew like that because of a “sideways gravitational pull” 🙄. This was on what’s supposed to be a page about science. And of course there were tons of people who believed it.

Not great for sawing into planks, but they work just fine to make paper and agglomerate.

are you saying you’re willing to cut these majestic fellas down??

seriously what smooth brain made this meme lol

and to earn a lot of money + bragging rights
