Ignore apple, he's talking bollocks, says bag of rice.

As a matter of fact, I often wonder what someone from 50 years ago would make of modern media. "What the hell is online shopping?" "Internet? Is that where Stockport County rarely put the ball?" "Smartphone? Well, it's quite stylish, I suppose, but where's the dial?".
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.
