no offense but after thousands of years of evolution… why can’t I breathe underwater, fly, or be motivated for more than 2 days at a time
Listen as a species we’re still working on knees that reliably last longer than peak reproductive age, you can only expect so much
Ok so what we need to do is introduce some kind of superpredator that can only hunt near the ground, like an exceptionally deadly crocodile. Then, only people with good enough knees to jump safely out of harm’s way will survive long enough to reproduce, resulting in a new species of human with strong and resilient knees. After many generations, some subspecies may even develop the ability to glide or fly. I just realized I’m outlining crocodile-based eugenics

Hey quick question do people actually wear jeans indoors at home? Like, as a casual thing to wear? As in you don’t plan on going out or anything you just put jeans on.
me, the first palaeontologist to dig up a triceratops skull, whispering softly: what the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuckkkk
fun fact: modern paleontologists and archaeologists have pointed to some greek vase art of mythological monsters as being evidence that the greeks dug up dinosaur skulls and were like “what the fuck, what the fuck, what the fuckkkk”
and then they did the Greek Thing and painted naked men fighting the monster
or, well, a deeply flawed representation of what they imagined the fossil had looked like while alive, an early form of paleoart.
but sometimes they also just. drew the skull and slapped a black blob monster onto it? anyway i love the greeks.
