Could we accidentally bestow human-style awareness into a pig?

• put the poster’s name at the top of the post.
• ask your visiting contributors to stick closely to the ‘headline, short summary/teaser, link to click through to full post" format

Agreed. This skims like an absurdly long scrollscrollscrolldown self-promo.

I promise not to say more! Cross my heart, hope to regenerate.

Just as an aside @beschizza this is a(nother) classic example of why one or other of the 2 suggestions below is needed.

• put the poster’s name at the top of the post.

I use blog view (as do many). Why would I click through to the article’s dedicated page when the entire article is already in the blog view?

[SheiffFatman]

My mistake. Apologies.

[anothernewbbaccount]

No, no. I should have been clearer in my original post that I was in blog view. (I just assume all sensible people are!)
And you nearly got an embarrassed apology from ME - until I realised what I was looking at.

Ahah! The important missing info that means I can make sense of the request!

The blog view is a recreation of early-2000s Boing Boing, when all the posts were short. It’s cleaned up a bit as it is – refining it would make for an interesting parralel universe.

Why do you assume that pigs don’t already have “human-style” awareness?

[redesigned]

make the short pigs the same as the long pigs, then it doesn’t matter which we eat!
