A mother octopus lays her eggs, then stops eating. She slowly starves to death while she guards them, and by the time they hatch, she's already gone. Her babies float off into the ocean and will never meet her.

An Oxford scientist named Tim Coulson thinks these animals could be the ones to take over after we're gone. He laid it out in a 2024 book, and the case holds up. An octopus has about 500 million brain cells, roughly the same as a dog. Two-thirds of them aren't even in its head. They're spread through the eight arms, so each arm can taste what it touches and move on its own. Octopuses open jars. They carry coconut shells across the seafloor to hide under later. They've squeezed out of sealed tanks in the dark and gotten away. No animal without a backbone comes close.

But being smart has never been enough to build a city. Everything humans built runs on one trick: each generation starts where the last one left off. A kid today learns in school what took people thousands of years to work out, and inherits all of it for free. An octopus inherits nothing. Its mother died before it hatched, so there's no one to copy and nothing left over from the octopus that came before.

So every octopus has to figure out the whole world by itself, starting from zero. And they're good at it, weirdly good. Then a year or two later they die and take everything they learned with them. Peter Godfrey-Smith, a philosopher who spent years diving with octopuses for his book Other Minds, points out that they pass almost nothing on to their young. The cleverest animal in the sea wipes its memory clean every generation and starts over.

Coulson said it could take hundreds of thousands of years, maybe millions, and he's right that the raw ability is already there. The brain is built, and the body can crack almost any puzzle you hand it. The only thing missing is a second generation that remembers the first.

All this chaos.

Just to protect the Dutertes and their allies.

The country has sacrificed too much—our institutions, our democracy, and far too many lives—for the survival of people who believe they are above accountability.

Nanunuod at nakikinig ang mga kabataan. We see what is happening, and we will remember the decisions and actions being made today.

Darating ang 2028, and many people will use their voices and votes to demand better leadership and accountability for the country.

Romualdez exits. The President forms a Commission to deal with corruption. Newly appointed DPWH Head Dizon takes an ax to flood projects. Senator Sotto comes back in a superhero cape. The people are of a mood to protest. De Lima is working again. Am I still in the Philippines?
