Just smart enough to figure out how to blow ourselves up, and still stupid enough to do it.

It always provides context for me in life to remember that, with great difficulty, humanity managed to do something I would think any sapient life form would consider a massive technological threshold/achievement: we figured out how to split the atom, releasing practically limitless energy.

…And Why did we suddenly rush to do so? To make big boomie boom rival monkey tribe.
