This was wonderful. However, I still don’t understand why the bugs project their pee. There must be some evolutionary purpose for doing so.

if only TED talks went back to being like this one. but I’m sure they have way too many propaganda quotas sponsored by ultraweathy corporations to meet, to actually care about informative content or integrity.
