Scientists Uncover ‘Jedi Rats’ Power: Moving Matter Without Touching It
@AskTheDevil 😂 you would
@damselfly59 I would! Lots of animals get declared cute or scary. Not only do I think the scary animals need appreciation too, I think most of them aren't that scary when you get to know them.
Everyone thinks pandas and squirrels are adorable. Someone has to have some love for the rats!
My sister has rats!
They're clever, sweet, and clean.
@tyghebright @damselfly59 The only thing that keeps us from having pet rats is that they live such short lives. I can't handle a heartbreak every 3 years.
Yes, they're fragile and short-lived. Even if I didn't have cats, I wouldn't be able to deal with that.
@tyghebright @damselfly59 I like to _visit_ rats. Sort of like how I like to _visit_ with ferrets, but we don't live with any. ; )
@AskTheDevil they are cute wben not in the wild.
The wharf rats in portland having telekinetic powers is kinda creepy though
@damselfly59 You mean the way rats squeak to stir up dust and scents, and it looks like they're moving things without touching them?
@damselfly59 Yeah, they do it with their little squeaks!
@damselfly59 I 🖤 rats.
