Orcas have incredibly complex social structures, complete with languages, regional dialects, and even names. They sing, dance, mourn deaths, and celebrate births, sometimes across pods and families that share a common language. The matriarchs teach the young verbally, passing down knowledge through words, not just actions.
That means orcas don’t just follow instinct , they have culture. One of the few animals on Earth that truly does.

Saw a pod of them in the waters off Vancouver Island yesterday and it evoked a real sense of wonder, of being part of nature and not separate from it.

When I was seven, an 80s movie aired on TV, and I watched it until my mom turned it off at bedtime. I cried, wanting to see the rest, but she refused, and I eventually fell asleep. The next day, I couldn’t remember the movie’s name, so I never finished it—until today. It aired again, and the experience was surreal; I remembered every detail and finally saw the ending.

It's a big NO from me for Espresso and Please Please Please , they were the Dance Monkey of 2024. I swear, I get so uncomfortable whenever either of those songs comes on.
