Crows are currently experiencing their stone age, but we will never see cool modern crows because we will be long gone before they reach the next stage. Basically they have been creating tools which researchers are saying are actually more advanced than ones that early humans made. They also have been studied domesticating wolves! They hunt with them, sleep with them, and individual crows have been seen specifically bonding with individual dogs, like humans do with pets.Not-Fun-Facts-Reddit

Hey Pandas, What Is Your Favorite Poem You Wrote?
I am the breeze on a summer’s day, With mild temperatures in tow, Gently blowing leaves astray, Delivering scents of home. I am the breeze singing through the trees, Rustling the lush green fields, Slipping by largely unseen, Unnoticed by all but the pinwheel. But life is fickle, shifting like the mists, The ocean tide turns twice a day, The breeze becomes a raging tempest, The wind picks up, get away, get away. I am the tempest raging forth, Destroying homes, ripping trees, Going on, wanting more, Impartially dangerous, ignoring pleas, I am the tempest whipping on, Urging thunderclouds across the sky, Causing damage that lasts too long, Longer than the rampage that ruined lives. But life is fickle, shifting like the mists, The ocean tide turns twice a day, One day I’m a gentle breeze of bliss, The next I’m a tempest in skies of gray. Not necessarily my favorite but especially for my earlier poems I think it flows nicely.Hey Pandas, What Is Your Favorite Poem You Wrote?
Oh man, I wish I could post it here but unfortunately the thumbdrive it was on got broken. I think it was called The Librarian or something. It was a Gothic poem about a man who lived in a tower and wrote everyone's secrets. I'll try to recreate it from memory: He knows every secret, the Librarian does. Every whisper, every confession, every murmur. He writes them in long scrolls, one for each person, as they are born. And their lives progress, and these secrets unfold. He sees all. He knows all. He knows your secrets as you whisper them on your deathbed As you stare into the oncoming night. He knows you killed her. He has it written here, see? He does not care for your emotions. He merely documents. Now he climbs a ladder to put your scroll on a shelf. There will be no more secrets for you now. He pulls a blank sheet from his piles. A new life has been born And he must write her secrets.Hey Pandas, What Is Your Favorite Poem You Wrote?
I've posted this before, but here it is: Strong Alpha You told me that I’m strong But maybe you’re wrong I feel weak I’m not perfect Or unique I wish you were still here To hold me gently and wipe away my tears But you’re not Maybe you were But you forgot I’m still searching for you Hoping that what you said was true It could be I’m a strong Alpha Don’t you agree?Hey Pandas, What Is The Best Food Creation You Have Ever Made?
Take a burito wrap, add mayo, salami, turkey, or ham, pepperoni (any type), and potato chips (best if use original Lays) and fold burito.

TIL that tigers are nearly invisible to their prey, who see orange as green. Tigers are orange because mammals can’t produce green fur, and orange was the next best thing.

During a traffic stop, while trying to act casual, I handed a police officer $50 instead of the licence he asked for.
