It is commonly understood that his glasses are taped to his head but their frame is drawn over what is more likely therefore to be a clump of old white hair, making him bald from age and not from a fashion choice in youth. A final insult, found only if you go looking for it.

They are moving into Africa like they think they are Old Europe.

I was probably a touch hard on the frogs.

Sometimes note taking can be very very time critical, once travelling with Dr Who the Daleks gave a laser bank disarm code which I tried to jot down in Keep but owing to not being able to start in one stroke I missed the first digit. It resulted in the destruction of 12 planets. Fortunately they were unpopulated except for one which had some frogs on it, but I don’t really care for frogs anyway so I can’t see it hurts. Still I am glad of the update.

Shocking how quickly people will fall in line with a burgeoning dictatorship. Everyone thinks they are an Oscar Schindler but really they are a Hugo Boss.

True, also they do not raise offspring which means zero communication of non-instinctive knowledge between generations.

We have terrestrial volcanoes, how far would human civilisation advanced if they were our only source of fire.

This is a search engine showing open evidence of skewing results away from true for their own motivations. Slightly comic when it is Microsoft doing it to Google but if they do this so blatantly how else are they more subtly redirecting our searches towards biased or even false results that benefit them and misinform the user.

Intelligence is a qualifier unlike other physical qualities, it allows humanity to dominate its environment while not being physically superior to many of the species surrounding us. Intelligence is a quality we recognise and calibrate in other species and seek out in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence and the development of artificial intelligence. Unlike flying or walking intelligence is universally accepted as a uniquely separate attribute, although not of course by you, so this is where I will end my discussion with you.

Humans most certainly would be it by almost any intellectual qualifier you chose to use. Grading every species we have encountered with regards to intelligence and ability to control its environment humanity is a wildly insane outlier. To point of absurdity, to the point where we do not fit to such an extent that some agency other than organic evolution might be suspected.

They are marine which makes fire impossible which severely limits industrial advancement. Similarly they are not social animals which negates a lot of the division of labour advantages of a society. While a species of octopus might advance intellectually to ponder its own existence I doubt it could achieve the infrastructure necessary to significantly control its environment.

Their best workers never existed - scheiße.

These dentists are the worst sort of people, they think they have great business acumen making these profits but they really are just working a monopoly. If they truly are business orientated let them invent something and go market it and be an actual entrepreneur in the real world, if not go back to caring for people as they were trained to do and make enough money to live a comfortable life but not extort people.

I think western interests at least are beginning to detach from nation states.

Yeah, the American tag was just a throwaway line, greed unchecked, insane and self-harming has always been with us. We let it sit with us around our camp fires like wolves but unlike wolves we never tamed it.

If you do not agree bird strike we do nuclear attack on world.

The way my Surface Pro was packaged I can completely understand this, all the cardboard was pulled open at one side.

So the development of inorganic intelligence, considered by many as an inflection point in human civilisation is to be handed to business graduates who are historically proven to be capable of any level of atrocity in the name of corporate greed. America, fuck yeah.
