    As much as I love this post, it’s not terribly accurate. Snails are capable of learning behaviors and navigation, and they specifically do use dopamine as a neurotransmitter. I think this person has mistakenly assumed that their lack of a centralized brain limits their experiences and abilities more than it really does, and I think that’s a very interesting and educational mistake to have made in this case. It drives home the overall feel of accepting and appreciating life in whatever way it manifests.
