Well, I guess the attention deficit goes through the family

Okay, time to revolt! Time for a cancerlution!

Koalas have even two oposable thumbs but are not able to use them intellectually. They are smooth brained, because their digestive system is highly specialized for breaking down eucalyptus and this needs a lot of energy, so development of higher intellect is impaired in these animals. Else the potential would be extremely high for these to evolve similarly to us intellectually. Having two opposable thumbs is even more advantageous than just one. You can see that in a few cases of polydactyly, where these cases have a second pointing finger. They use it like a second thumb and are far more capable in manipulating objects with one hand than non-polydactylic humans are. Koalas could do that too, if they would have evolutionary more energy left for their brain.

Understanding other languages that never developed from each other are extremely hard to analyze from one of the two perspectives and it even seems more primitive on first glance. I wouldn't assume that dolphines are that intelligent to develop such a sophisticated language as we did with verbs, adjectives and what not but wales language has been tried to analize by correlating it with fitting propositions by creating a knowledgebase and it was found to be pretty sophisticated already.

Also as a cognitive scientist I have to say that our language might only seem from our perspective very sophisticated. If wales were more intelligent they would lough similarly about our weird noises we do with our mouths, because they are not built to understand our language, the same way as we are not built to understand their language.

But why does this occur in horses?

What about birds, dolphins and wales then? They arguably also communicate in complex ways as we do through another type of "language". Also on another note, animals also do use propositions, while this is still discussed in behavioural sciences, scientists are pretty sure that dogs for example do understand propositions too without having a language.

Also what makes us strage? Our species has lived through a lot of different states in history, which made us evolve more often than other species did, which makes us seem quite fifferent to other animals, while we are in construction still very close to other animals.

And compare us to chimps and bonobos. They are very similar to us in many ways except for the capabilities we excert through our neocortex, which is far more developed then theirs aside from some morphological differences.

And where do dolphines work on the same principles like ants? They are also extremely different, like we are to lets say pigeons.

I would call your argument invalid.

Ive seen an early 2000's kids room decor on display once... It was exactly a design I knew from my childhood. I was slapped in the face with a feeling of old.

First of all, we are a product of it. We also demand nutrition, like any other animal. We work by the same principles like any other animal. We just have a large neocortex, which allows us to solve complex problems, which other animals cannot. We use this to our advantage like any other animal would do. I am not saying that it is the right thing we are doing but we grew out of primitivism and have much more complex problems at hand now, which mainly need us to reject our tribal behaviour and move past it. Many of these large problems are due to our tribalism. Why should we care about the world? We care about our loved ones only. Why should I give money to people I do not know? I would rather give it to my close ones. Everything else is a potential threat. Our tribalism doesn't function properly at this scale and we have to move past it somehow, while it is deeply natural for us to behave like this and it's at small scale also beneficial and not harmful to others.

Nut and Yahoo guy?

There is always distrust and something to die for. Let's take your friends and family? What if someone kills your partner either just for fun (which does happen) or because of a differing morale. What now? Can you still trust people for this not happening again?

Don't get me wrong, I am also hoping for a better, freeer and more trustworthy world. More peace and such but you cannot expect this just from simplification.

Even though, if it were true, if he would only roam around in the castle and in the shade, he becomes paler. As a poor man living in the streets especially in such a warm region, you get pretty brown relatively fast. This accounts as true for people from this region especially, because they are basically white in skin tone. Their melatonin just rises (and that relatively quickly), because they are often in the sun. I know that, because I am turkish myself. I can be potato white but get pretty brown relatively fast when summer comes around and I am outside a lot.

Nature Documentary Narrator: "The Human. A peculiar specimin within the primate kingdom..."

I actually would love a Nature Documentary style explanation about humans, as if they were just another species spotlighted in their documentary seriesXD

I think this is considerable as tacticalXD
