but do little for real human interaction

2017-06-07 19:02:17 UTC  

Having a purpose really feels nice, honestly

2017-06-07 19:02:42 UTC  

Water is still important

2017-06-07 19:03:44 UTC  

XD If you have to use a bunch of labels to describe yourself thats kinda sad

2017-06-07 19:04:11 UTC  

I'm fine with who I am, I'm the motherly type of person who cares and dotes on my family and works hard to make sure everyone in my household is a-okay

2017-06-07 19:04:27 UTC  

And is taht not a label?

2017-06-07 19:04:58 UTC  

That's not a label, that's a description

2017-06-07 19:05:02 UTC  

Big difference

2017-06-07 19:05:42 UTC  

Well could labels be descriptions but just abreviated

2017-06-07 19:06:24 UTC  

sure

2017-06-07 19:06:41 UTC  

getting hung up on it is the problem

2017-06-07 19:06:43 UTC  

So I looked it up real quick, and
"a classifying phrase or name applied to a person or thing, especially one that is inaccurate or restrictive."

2017-06-07 19:06:59 UTC  

And could pigeons have consiousness like humans

2017-06-07 19:07:30 UTC  

there's an easy way to test this

2017-06-07 19:07:40 UTC  

make the animal look at itself in the mirror

2017-06-07 19:08:19 UTC  

most animals just recognize it as another anime

2017-06-07 19:08:22 UTC  

anime

2017-06-07 19:08:23 UTC  

lol

2017-06-07 19:08:25 UTC  

animal

2017-06-07 19:08:38 UTC  

dolphins and elephants react to their reflection and seem to understand it's tem

2017-06-07 19:08:39 UTC  

them

2017-06-07 19:08:41 UTC  

Well is that the best test for consuousness

2017-06-07 19:08:48 UTC  

so do most primates

2017-06-07 19:08:49 UTC  

I mean isnt that just intelligent

2017-06-07 19:09:17 UTC  

intelligence and consciousness are linked

2017-06-07 19:09:26 UTC  

But not the same

2017-06-07 19:09:29 UTC  

The word consciousness just means you're awake, and aware of what you are and what surrounds you

2017-06-07 19:09:38 UTC  

Your environment, your feelings, all that

2017-06-07 19:09:58 UTC  

consciousness is an illusion constructed by a high functioning brain

2017-06-07 19:10:09 UTC  

Being self aware is part of consiousness

2017-06-07 19:10:27 UTC  

And could pigeons expiernce this in anyway

2017-06-07 19:10:36 UTC  

no

2017-06-07 19:11:03 UTC  

they don't have the body to brain ratio that seems to correlate with higher intelligence

2017-06-07 19:11:10 UTC  

ik

2017-06-07 19:11:21 UTC  

I just want someone to say they could

2017-06-07 19:11:28 UTC  

It would make me happy

2017-06-07 19:11:32 UTC  

What is this conversation

2017-06-07 19:11:35 UTC  

...

2017-06-07 19:11:47 UTC  

I don't know anymore

2017-06-07 19:11:50 UTC  

animals are dumb some are dumber

2017-06-07 19:11:56 UTC
