    it’s gonna be so disappointing when they find out 70% of whale talk is just fart jokes. they just really really like them.

      i’m assuming that when you dive down, the pressure forces all the farts out of you. so it’s something that must appear in whale humor even more frequently than in our humor. seeing as how they go up and down the water column.

    Imho, it’s a bit exceptionalistic/embarrassing that large parts of humanity automatically assume that other animals can’t think or feel. It seems correlated with ‘profits’ somehow.

    Any way, I hope NONE of the other dominant species on the planet have discovered who creates all the problems for them (cough)… We could continue our lies, and say that Aliens - or the evil ‘lizard people’ - made us do it ?

      Omg their version of whaling shanties are going to be dank. Like “Sink the Bismarck” except called “Sink the Pequod”.
