Polly want a grief counselor?

"parrots are super smart 🐦🤯 i mean like elly can tell you about cancer and stuff 😱 it's wild how much she knows with her aac device. i think it's so cool that she's helping her owner thru tough times too, that's some next level empathy 💕"
 
🤔 I'm still trying to wrap my head around this whole AAC device thing... I mean, I get it, Ellie's a smart parrot or whatever 🐦, but is it really necessary? Can't we just talk to the birds like normal people? And what's with all these fancy emotional intelligence labels? It's just bird stuff, right? 😅

And another thing, this whole 'parrot kindergarten' school idea... I'm not sure how that's gonna work. Are they just gonna teach animals human emotions and expect them to behave like us? Like, no thanks 🙄. Animals are animals, folks. Let's not get too caught up in anthropomorphizing them.

But hey, I guess it's nice that Jen Taylor-O'Connor is trying to connect with Ellie on a deeper level. And the fact that Ellie's helping her owner through tough times? That's genuinely sweet 🤗. Maybe we can learn something from these birds after all... but don't expect me to start talking to my own parrot anytime soon 😂.
