I think it’s a bad thing, and those are the words I would use. Or something along those lines.

Some sanity.
I studied plant signalling/phytohormones during my MSc, it’s genuinely fascinating but it doesn’t imply consciousness. Cows have a central nervous system. Beyond that, it’s magical thinking. You are making an unfalsifiable claim, and that’s fine, but please acknowledge that you are adopting a faith-based position here. I could claim the sentience of crystals and be similarly obstinate when challenged.
Plants do have incredibly impressive defence mechanisms, but that doesn’t mean onions are crying when you cut them. There’s no central nervous system, you are anthropomorphising. That is very common whenever this topic comes up, but it really is magical thinking, and the garden is already magical enough without imagining fairies at the bottom.
Thermostat sentience.
I think a better word might be needed, to be honest.
I don’t like the use of “othering” as a verb, basically. A girthy third of my MSc included swimming in the twat-infested waters of academic sociology so I feel I’ve earned my battle-scars in that respect. I once had a professor tell me “dams don’t work, anyway” as a way of terminating a debate on the relocation of tribal communities in central India. The entire history of agriculture would seem to disagree with that assessment.
Can’t get behind the annoying sociology degree language. Even if the point is valid.
Tell me about this chin.
An elderly couple got stuck on the M25 and needed to be rescued and treated for dehydration. That’s kind of a roundabout. It was ages ago.
It’s like baggy jeans.
You kiss your mother with that mouth?

Chinese version 你吃了吗 or variations on that, although it’s not used so much anymore. Literally means “have you eaten”, except it doesn’t really require an answer. I imagine it came up in that video, but it’s a good one.
I just don’t find males attractive. I don’t find male genitals attractive.
Uncle Anon, is it?
