5yo: "Why don't people grow up quickly like birds?"
Me: "Well, we have something different about us that takes a long time to grow and develop. Something in our heads. Do you know what that is?"
5yo: " ... ... snot?"
Me: "...."
5yo: "animals don't have snot."
@theplaguedoc I would like them to meet my friend Crosby, who happens to be a very friendly french bulldog.

@theplaguedoc Just as well. Birds don't have fingers to get the snot out with, either!

@theplaguedoc I was told by some English teacher or professor that in medieval Europe the prevailing belief on the purpose of the brain was to produce snot. I don't know how true that is but it is funny

@theplaguedoc I just can't stop laughing.
Please if anyone knows how to forward this to #ChrisPackham on #winterwatch please do. I think he'd appreciate it. -

@theplaguedoc @Unlikelylass sadly, my cat definitely has snot.

@theplaguedoc You want to introduce the 5yo to Larvacean.
Wikipedia describes it as "houses they build around their bodies to assist in filter-feeding. Secreted from mucus and cellulose, these structures often comprise several layers of filters".
What it actually is: gigantic palaces made of snot.

@aral @MediaActivist you’re such an eloquent speaker Aral (content + form), it’s hard to fight the urge to applaud you. We are so lucky to have you here on the Fediverse advocating for all these worthy causes 💖

@catsalad the one that immediately comes to mind for me is Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons. There's a specific moment near the end that hit me in a way that I've never had any game hit me before or since.
