    Do we also get a thread of pictures of animals getting CT scans with their consent?

        Thanks for sharing. How does the fish one work? The dolphin I get because it breathes oxygen, but don’t all fish have gills? I feel like it should be in the water.

          It can be out for a matter of minutes.

          Humans are just ludicrously overdependent on aerobic respiration, our brain metabolism is overcharged to the point of being broken.

          Most other animals have a lot more room to function sans oxygen, they’re more limited by stored energy reserves.

            Why do you use sans instead of just saying without?

              Can’t speak for op but it usually adds cheek. Sans’ use was revived a few decades ago. It tends to alter one’s tone to sound slightly stuffier, like putting on a top-hat and monocle. I’ve also seen it used more randomly by younger people who recently learned its meaning.

              Edit: disclaimer and use case

                I’m old, from when it was first revived, it’s slightly snarky and removes seriousness from a topic in the middle.

          You’re supposed to hold your breath for a CT, so the fish is just fine for a bit.

          Maybe the fish are dead, or not out of the water for too long.

        Somehow I don’t think the fish consented to this…

        Some of those seem to have consented after being forced to.

          I’m pretty convinced the cat is just being a cat though.

      I hate to read any post on the internet that involves both the words “animal” and “consent.”

      Human beings are inexplicable, contradictory species that don’t know how to view the world through anything other than our momentary feelings about things, and the universe suffers for it.
