I don't think nematodes are social enough nor have memory such that they could remember that something cares about it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] turdas@suppo.fi 1 point 9 months ago (3 children) Very confusing title in that case permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] pebbles@sh.itjust.works [S] 1 point 9 months ago (2 children) Fair enough.
