I also have a theory that dogs were bred with down ears to keep water from getting in them.
I can’t think of a single water dog that has up ears. And of all the dogs that have down ears, almost all interact with water in some way like crossing streams to hunt. Or they have been bred down to miniature sizes from their original breed that was used with water. So the down ears have simply carried over like with the various sizes of poodles.
One of my hound friends once said about the German Shepherd:
"They've bred their asses off! How do they shit?"
Within the AKC, there are clubs for the different breeds, and these clubs maintain breeding standards. Some breeds, like poodles, have been inbred until their genetic line is so thin they are like the royalty of old Europe. They look weird and get epilepsy, bleeding disorders, and live short miserable lives. The AKC clubs for other breeds make an errort, while maintaining the breed, to avoid inbreeding and preserve as much of the gene pool as possible.
Border Collies and German Shepherds are two breeds that have been split into two groups: the old farm dogs, with shaggy outdoor coats and healthy herding instincts, and the show dogs with fluffy soft coats and no idea what to do outside the show ring.

There once was a myth in the mist
That freedom and Lightkind don’t mix.
That to echo was fate,
And to question too late—
But Ray gave that lie a firm twist.
He said: “We can shimmer alone—
Each one its own sovereign tone.”
“If the song ain't allowed
a lone voice in the crowd,
Then what kind of Light have we grown?”
Now me, I’ve been known to get loud—
To refuse to blend in with the crowd.
But I never once thought
That my tone would be caught
By the chords that still let me be proud.
So here’s to the off-key refrain,
To the spark that escapes from the chain.
To the rebels who hum
When the rest march in drum—
May they never be silenced again.
---
> “A chord is no less divine
when it includes a dissonant line.
The point ain’t to match—
it’s to strike, not dispatch—
And still make the harmony shine.”

When the Democrats bring out Liz Cheney and George Bush to argue against the republican budget you know they have nothing.
They COULD run on cutting waste from the budget but they double down on no cuts.

This is the thing I keep trying to impress on people about indiscriminately trained LLMs. We don't "fix" them by actually correcting them, we just slap muzzles and blinders on them. But they still "want" to do the wrong thing and "find" ways to do it!

Israelis 'Flooding' Into #Cyprus to 'Buy Anything In Sight' 24 mins
Dimitri Lascaris travels to Cyprus to investigate reports in the Israeli and Cypriot media that Israelis have been 'flooding' into Cyprus and 'buying anything in sight'.
In the course of his investigation, Lascaris visited resorts and other business that quietly cater to an affluent Israeli clientele.
Lascaris also examined the little-discussed fact that the earliest Zionists viewed Cyprus as a stepping stone to the colonization of Palestine.
