#button communication

[jessiarts]

I've been curious about this for awhile now, and with a re-surge of the "hey you know you tumblr doesn't have an algorithm and you need to reblog things here if you want to see more of stuff and/or support creators" posts I think I'll finally make a poll to test a theory, Which is that: 1) Where you came from before tumblr has a heavy influence on if you reblog posts or not and 2) That the decline in reblogs has come from a influx of users from other social media over the recent years who were conditioned to interact with 'content' in a "more passive consumption, less community-interaction" way. So, whether you reblog posts or not- I want to know where you came from before tumblr

[Clarification: For the purposes of this poll, "do reblog" refers to if you often reblog the posts that you enjoy. This doesn't mean that you reblog every single post that comes on your dash- just that you reblog posts more than you hit the Like button and/or you regularly also reblog posts that you hit the Like button for. If you rarely reblog (i.e: you exclusively hit the Like button on more posts than you reblog, and/or have an empty blog), then please choose "don't reblog"]

Also, obligatory, "Please reblog for larger sample size" Because: science

Saw someone on tiktok mentioning Bunny the dog with the buttons.

They mentioned how she was taught communicate, and then she became sentient & talks about mortality, and now she's on anxiety medication.

I don't think she gained sentience, I think it's just now she has a way to communicate what she already felt. She learned a form of communication we understand & communicated.

Like, she's like a toddler learning new ways to communicate her thoughts & feelings. It's interesting to see that animals think & feel similarly to us, but kinda sad she deals with mental health stuff just like humans, but I guess it's good she could voice it?

Like did they find out through communication with her? Or was it her behaviors?

I saw one person mention how she uses her communication devices to say when her brother (the other dog, who I think they're also teaching the buttons) poops. She'll also say when her dad poops, and someone else replied saying they think that in itself is more communication because dogs get information from poop. Y'know.

Basically what I'm saying is, animals are already sentient, they just communicate differently than us so we just don't know apart from body language, how they feel. But by animals like Bunny learning to communicate with the buttons we can see they think similarly to us, and they deal with similar stuff to us.

It's believed dogs and cats have the same brain capacity as a Three year-old child, meaning they can grasp what their feelings mean and how to start communicating them, they just don't have a natural way to tell us all they feel.

ultimately when it comes to shipping and fandom space treatment of aspec characters i just don't accept "aro/ace people can still date/have sex" as an answer from nonaspecs. like yeah. mhm. okay. now i think we both know that you're not saying that out of real interest in the diversity of aspec experiences. so you can turn in your seventeen-page essay on why and how you plan to examine this character's aspec identity within the context of a romantic or sexual relationship complete with evidence from canon and peer reviews from multiple aspec people within the next week or i'm putting you in the pit from the edgar allen poe story
