Every time I find out about someone that enjoys not thinking rather than thinking it hurts me as much as the first person I'd found out about that prefers such a life.
It's their choice and their right to enjoy such a freedom, but when one begins and continues to read and learn up on the proliferation of a species, and then think about humanity's growth and how our consciousness and intelligent minds add such a different and wholly new factor to such a natural process, one begins to see that if we wish to succeed in becoming greater than we are, the nourishment of our minds must become popular.
Laziness and dull mindedness shouldn't be favored or pursued; the elite institutions continue to favor such a pursuit for fear of losing their position and an attempt to think of a society in which such wonderful people can exist -- people that favor growing their minds -- becomes difficult immediately.
This is one of the things I think about sometimes.

Does the decision of a musical artist to provide their music in digital form automatically state that they give the community the right to freely share it? This would then turn the internet into simply a tool of sharing, much like a public bulletin board on which posters would be placed to advertise local thingies.
The owner of the physical artifact is allowed to record the music onto a cassette. The internet is only a middle-man between the physical artifact and someone that wishes to listen to it. If one wants the true art of it, they'll buy it. If one only wishes to listen to lesser quality versions of it, they will download it and not buy it.
For greater companies in a society when the majority of people cannot tell the difference between higher and lower quality recordings, this system is detrimental. But is it right for the government to declare the sharing of music illegal? Is sharing something illegal?

Given this link, I begin to see a pattern of struggling consciousnesses. I explore my mind for past occurrences of such animal behavior and find multiple examples. For instance, the playfulness of dogs, bears, other fish, and a wealth of other animal species, all exemplify the kind of adaptation and play in the article.
Therefore, one can playfully assume that each animal has a consciousness that struggles within the body of the given animal, as a human struggles to adapt with any particular tool.
The body is a tool for the mind, and when circumstances allow animals to perform activity that reveals this, it is funny.
