@0uijaFinger I wonder if she would still pick on me

@DeadOrbit Yes.

@0uijaFinger Bollox....

@GerOttman What do you mean, an African or European swallow?

@DeadOrbit I.. I ummn, don't know?

@GerOttman You have to know these things when you’re a king, you know.

@Rabscuttle do you think human are natrually empathetic or do you think they have to learn to be?

@DeadOrbit Okay, that makes sense.

@DeadOrbit Both. A basic level of interpersonal empathy would've been selected for in pretty much any strongly social lifeform, but that's mostly going to show up as low-level survival stuff, or a general unformed benevolence. Deeper empathy requires understanding of another individual's desires and personality, and that needs to be learned- but there's going to be some level of instinct for that in healthy individuals.

Edit: Or so I think, anyway.

@DeadOrbit Yes . :-)

Thank you.

@valobasa4ever you are very welcome
