ARE ANTS CONSCIOUS!...

I know you're probably like "What's he even on about?", but hear me out first, I have a story to share... 

So the story starts like this... 

So I was just chilling in my room, playing some nice ol' FIFA, when I noticed from the corner of my eye, three or four ants on my floor and I'm like "What? In my room? Yous coming here to play?!", so in my divine rage, I decimated the ant trio and sought their destination. Behold the holy grail!, the cup which I had just enjoyed my delectable fizzy beverage, within which another trio had arrived. In my rage and forgiving benevolence, I decided to quench these miniature soldiers existences in the most merciful way I could think of... So I attempted to drown them in the sea of carbonated liquid 😈. With them now in their final resting place, I decided to move the burial grounds to my heavenly cooking place [the kitchen so I would stop getting ants in my room😪]. I then chose to watch if these fallen soldiers could escape their damnation [I can be really bored at times... Don't judge me...]. During my observation, I had come to the conclusion that they could not survive and decided to witness their last moments on this earth. When the first of the three was about to give up, something spectacular happened! The other two seemingly tried harder and one even tried pulling the one that was about to give up to a breathable area, at this point I felt if they could be so selfless and so determined to survive I could not kill them so shamefully... So I drained the cup and let them free. They did a couple more peculiar things, like move as if they had just been traumatized or were disoriented and even rested at a point [splashed water to see if they were dead or not, they weren't]. It then hit me, Yoooo, what if these 🐜s are conscious!

I know they're probably not, but what if they are? Like there's no way for us to know if any animal is conscious or not, and it's actually a bit sad if they are 😔. 

I hope one day we can have fully fleshed out conversations with animals. I feel the convo would go a little like this:

Scientist: "Aye pig, you conscious?"
Pig: "Yea mate"
Scientist: "Alright cool, you feel pain?"
Pig: "You killed my mother a month back..."
Scientist: *ticks box* "Pigs feel pain, reduce pork intake"
Scientist: "Ok ant, your turn, are you conscious?"
Ant: "Nah, not really"
Scientist: "Feel pain?"
Ant: "Yea fam"
Scientist: "How does that work?"
Ant: "I don't know, ask evolution"
Scientist: "How about you roach?"
Roach: "Not conscious, but feel pain"
Scientist: "Do you know why? "
Roach: "Yea... So over millions of years more efficient an-"
Scientist: "Ok I don't really care, but if I see you in my room again..."
Roach: *Crawls back into hole*"Understood sir"

Till then... I'm gonna enjoy me some 🐔. 

Proper post later today 💯 💯 💯
