I don’t think the (very old) CGP Grey video on the topic has been posted yet.

The only elements in this video I know to be out of date are the UK’s membership of the EU (*shakes fist), and Barbados is now a republic.
I’m with you, but it’s harder for more modern buildings.

One I’ve gone past a few times.
That’s a great piece. Thanks for sharing.
The fact that most of our signals for extra-terrestrial life are based on life on earth has always made me concerned we’d miss something. This has made me reconsider a little. We would miss life unlike earth’s with our approach, but without an analogy like this to draw on, how could we know?
That photo is so adorable.
We had 10 over the course of about 5 years, but yeah it got sad saying goodbye all the time. Rats are hugely underrated as housepets. They are super sociable, and smart. When I see snaps like yours I miss having them, but when I read posts like yours I remember why I don’t.
It was a while ago now and I’m rubbish with photos anyway, so not sure I can pay the pet tax. If I find anything I’ll come back and edit.
