When am I allowed to stab a man?

saw a tiktok of a mother taking her very tiny daughter to an art museum and she’s just walking around going “whoooa” “woooaah” to everything but then they got to a marble statue of a nude woman lying on her back and the girl points and goes “mommy🫵” and i just immediately welled up with tears and all the comments are just laughing about it and of course it’s funny but how are you not insanely moved by the way art connects everyone on earth from a centuries-old sculptor to a toddler in 2023

It's so cool how current research into mycorrhizal networks talks about plants and fungi communicating, making decisions and engaging in "dialogue" because there is really no other way to describe it

They each have so many, like potentially hundreds, of different chemicals produced as signals to their symbionts

what really fucks me up though is the paper i read this morning talking about plants' decision making in balancing their immune response against pathogens vs. their need to form symbiosis with beneficial organisms. Basically plants have to distinguish between helpful symbionts and parasites and they have to actively initiate symbiosis with one while producing an immune response against the other. The paper was saying that this decision making process would have to be like a series of logic gates. excuse me are you saying that PLANT is COMPUTER.
