    I learned something new! I was aware that rats being tickled make a sound believed to be analogous to human laughter, but I didn’t know that they make the same sound when they anticipate a tickling, when they see tickling-person approaching. That’s… rather adorable.

    Tell them if they really want traffic, write something about sexism.

    It think “Cute cuddly animals” will do just fine.
