I thought this and then I dogsat my friends Australian Shepard border collie mix and oh my god after hours and hours of running him and interactions he’d still look at me like “what’s next” and I realized I’m too introverted for this breed of dog.

    Agree. Dogs wear their mood on their body; you can tell how a dog is feeling and what they want in 2 or 3 seconds from their body language. People are way harder to read, and have a much more complicated relationship with honesty. We wear poker faces and learn to hide our tells

    Dogs are animals

    Absolutely not! Animals are nothing but sensory overload. Not to mention their generally shorter lives make the emotional attachment not worth it to me neither.

    This, but with machines.

    Humans are draining and there isn't much positive coming from them, so overall rather negative.

    Animals are neutral, though need upkeep which cant be ignored, so maybe slightly leaning towards overall negative even.

    Machines on the other hand, those serve a purpose, even though those do need maintenance and prayer, generally the purpose those serve is simple and useful enough to be worth the effort of dealing with those, in addition nothing happens if those are forgotten for a while.

    I would rather hang out with 1 bear or gorilla than with 100 men or women.
