Octopus filmed changing colours while sleeping.

i wonder what they are dreaming about

Changing colors duh

What’s really cool about this is that cephalopod (octopus, squid, etc.) intelligence evolved completely separately from intelligence in tetrapods (which includes primates, dolphins, crows… basically any other intelligent animals you can think of). Cephalopods are very, very far away from us on the tree of life. For context, you and a starfish are more closely related than you and an octopus. The last common ancestor of humans and cephalopods was the so-called Urbilaterian, the hypothetical first animal with a left-right symmetric body. This animal almost certainly had, at most, an extremely simple nervous system, without anything resembling a brain.

All this is to say that the fact that this octopus appears to be dreaming means one of two things. Either

a) dreaming is a very, very old thing indeed, going directly back to the Urbilaterian. This would mean that almost every animal, from insects to starfish to sea slugs to newts, is likely to have the ability to dream in some capacity or another (unless they have specifically lost it by evolutionary simplification).

or

b) dreaming evolved entirely independently in cephalopods when they developed greater intelligence. This would suggest, at least, that there’s something very fundamental about dreaming related to intelligence itself, which causes it to emerge independently when sufficient intelligence arises.

Needless to say, either of these outcomes would be really very cool.

im inclined to believe its the latter as dreaming is commonly theorized to be how the brain processes the information its learned during the waking hours.

Fellas, if your game has:

  • A Simple Style
image
  • An Emphasis on Building
image
  • Esoteric Crafting Recipes
image
  • A Leveling/Enchanting System
image
  • Traveling Through Different Dimensions
image
  • A Meta Narrative
image
  • And Frog Breeding
image
image
image

Then that’s not your game, that’s Homestuck

WHAT IN THE SWEET AND SOUR FUCK IS HOMESTUCK

its a comic about a game with an emphasis on resource collection, esoteric crafting, enchanting, interdimensional travel, building and most importantly, frog breeding.
