    Upgrade?

    Have we even seriously tried opening dialogue with elephant or whale tribes?

    I know we jacked off a bunch of dolphins we raised in captivity, but, like… Did we send anthropologists anf linguists?

        Dude, we jack off about first contact math abd how we would talk to aliens. Seti was(is?) A thing.

        If we cant talk to fuckers whose antique bones my grandmother decorated her room with, whose grandmother read by the light of the burning flesh of? We have no god damn right to be calling ourselves intelligent or civilized as a species.

      Just because we could talk to a whale wouldn’t make them a furry. They need to be anthropoidal to be a furry.

        I said upgrade.

        Let’s make their bodies more enjoyable for us to see. If we never meet aliens, let’s make them.

          But that’s not an upgrade, it would be a lateral mov. Maube there are whales or eleohsnts with the same weird kinks as us; we don’t know: never asked.
