A little time, a good teacher and an enticing incentive. Read more here: http://to.pbs.org/2mpRUAzCredit: O.J. Loukola et al., Science (2017)@clockworkrobotic“Friend? Friend push ball? I push ball. I do good.”Bees. Smart enough to push a ball, not smart enough to not be fooled by a stick masquerading as a bee. maybe they know and they’re just being politeOther dimensional beings are undoubtedly amazed at what human beings will accept as human beings too. “But it’s just a stick with a person on it.” #excuse me neil but what the FUCK was that #thanks for that terrifying thought (nooby-banana)NEIL WHY. WHY WOULD YOU SAY THAT.This turns up on my dashboard. And I read it and am impressed that someone writes exactly the post that I’d write, without actually reading the name of the person who posted it. And then I’m puzzled at all the Neil Why’s, and realise that this was me in the Wayback Long-ago.At least I’m consistent.And, I should point out, we are no closer to being able to spot the extra-dimensional stick “people” who move unobserved among us.Hmmm, i always thought it was the absolute quietness, the staring dead set inquisitive eyes, the way they sort of glide around in a crowd, but never quite seem to interact with anyone around them as your glance passes by. A form of lethargic stillness that you never notice unless you quiet your inner mind, and even then only brief glimpses captured from the side of your eye. Like something purposefully trying to walk out of your view, but when you go to look, no one is there….that prickling sensation of eyes on back of the neck the only mention of their passing by.meh, or maybe i’m just slightly paranoid (or mad), and most definitely did not notice a few individuals of human appearance over the years, with not so human behaviors….yeah…that’s got to be it…. -- source link
