My buddy read an article about octopus intelligence. It was feeding time, and the handler dumped some shrimp into an octopus’ tank. Then he went into another room and sat at his desk.
A while later, a shrimp was tossed onto his desk.
The octopus, upon finding one bad shrimp in the lot, had grabbed it, escaped its tank, crossed the hall, and threw the expired shrimp at its caretaker. Not only does this showcase their problem-solving capabilities, but also that it could have escaped at any time. It just broke out this time to chuck an off shrimp in indignation at its handler. That’s not just intelligence, that’s a human-like reaction. Kinda make you wonder exactly how smart these guys can be…
OH MY GOD
I went to the aquarium once and we had a tour and we walked past the octopus tank and it was duct taped shut so I asked why and the guy was like. “Well, we had a problem before because these fish were disappearing randomly at night and we had no idea why. Turns out the octopus had memorised the night guards rounds and would creep out of its tank, crawl across the floor to the fish tank, have a little snack and be back in its own tank with the lid shut before the guard came back.” they are super smart

Apparently you forgot the legendary Roof Koreans during the LA riots of ‘92. After days of violence and minimal police intervention, Korean-Americans used their guns to defend their shops when the lawful authorities were nowhere to be found.
The logic is that some people aren’t privileged enough to rely on the police to defend them in an emergency.
45 YEARS AGO THIS DAY: Welcome to the Moon, August 1, 1971. The top three photos are of Apollo 15 astronaut Jim Irwin by the flag at the end of the second moonwalk of the mission, taken by Dave Scott. In the bottom three, the two switch places with Dave Scott by the flag posing for Jim Irwin behind the camera. (NASA)
