Last night my amoeba croaked from his petri dish, "Why do philosophers remain stuck in an impasse between attributing mind either only to top chess players or else to the entire universe when even phototactic water beetles modulate their behavior by sensing light?" I was shook.
My amoeba dutifully cited Noë, Action in Perception. I asked if his generalization was not thus uncharitably broad. Sneering, he replied I knew nothing of the lingering prejudice against the Continentals in English-speaking programs, and wriggled to the far side of his dish.
this is doing rather well on amoeba twitter
