Ants are awesome. If they were the size of humans, they would have taken over the galaxy by now.

I find ants fascinating. They're so extremely dumb as single organisms but a whole nest is a brainy being capable of farming, spying, building, repairing, finding food.

[doutonight]

@kid29a so.. exactly as humans?

@kid29a

Indeed! Lewis Thomas once said that they, "Are so much like humans as to be an embarrassment. They farm fungi, raise aphids as livestock, launch armies into war, use chemical sprays to alarm and confuse enemies, capture slaves, engage in child labor, exchange information ceaselessly. They do everything but watch television."

@kid29a Hive minds have always been particularly interesting to me.
