Title: Which animal would you choose to be?
Post by: Roses on July 16, 2025, 10:28:05 AM: If you were an animal of another species instead of a human animal, which one would you choose to be?

I think I would be a tortoise.

I've been getting more batty with age. Sometimes it's irritating, sometimes amusing.

I read a paper on that by Thomas Nagel. It was sadly somewhat impenetrable. Anyway, it probably wouldn't be much fun what with being smacked around by cricket balls all day.
