So I saw Rise of the Planet of the Apes

[cleolinda]

I have most of a linkspam ready to go, but since I'm running behind, we have to take these things in a different order. First things first:

@cleolinda: EARLY MOVIE IS EARLY. Going to see Rise of the Prequel of the Planet of the Apes shortly. #leavingthehouseomg

[Two or three hours later.]

@cleolinda: My sister is now afraid apes are going to

Polydactyl kitties are working on that opposable thumbs thing. When they get it down, we're in trouble.

You mean they haven't already?

Oh my goddess, so that's where the gif of the kitty reading 'The Art of Military Strategy' comes from!

Btw, my cat can already open doors. Well, doors that have certain kind of doorknob anyway! O_O

That was AMAZING. Thank you for bringing that into my life.

hahaha....my cat very nearly has human thumbs. It kinda frightens me. (http://pics.livejournal.com/sun_star_n_moon/pic/00030p1d)

My polydactyl cat has thumbs, and I have seen her use them -- like, to pick up a long skinny thing she's playing with, getting it in the crook of her thumb and curling her "fingers" around it. It's kind of scary when that happens.

If that were my cat I'd praise her for it. I like to encourage cats to use their brains.

[eregyrn]

Oh, I praise her for it. Stay on her good side, that's what I'm thinking.
