Probably thought the whole to-do was a bit patronizing.

I hired a firm of them to design me a house and their plans had me living in a tree hollow and there was nowhere to park my car.

I have seen them ride little bikes and that is a very green mode of transportation. So as long as they are not loading up their gas-guzzling utility trucks with these toolkits for their contractor gigs, I am down with this.

I’ve known of pet cockatoos who have disassembled their own cages in order to escape. They’re also loud as fuck.

A friend of mine inherited a cockatoo from his grandfather. Grandpa had gotten the bird when he was a young man, and when he died my friend took over care.
These birds live for like 100 years, so it’s a big deal to get one as a pet. This particular cockatoo was a grumpy little thing and only liked grandpa. No one else. It was a hellion after grandpa died.
It happened to be an endangered species, so eventually my friend donated him to the local wildlife sanctuary. He was given a big enclosure and lots of stuff to do.
We went to visit him once, and he was there calling out to visitors. “Come closer, come closer.”
Whenever anyone did, he threw rocks at them, then laughed uproariously. Living his best life.

We have so consistently underestimated other species.

Use one for your next repair job. Their bills are small.

I was just thinking about this after watching old videos of my cockatoo tearing shit up. He’s a good tool user too
