Where does poop come into this? Regardless of what whether anyone thinks "goes well with" refers to JUST eating (which it doesn't. "those pants go well with that shirt" isn't saying you're eating them), where does the poop come in? They said cocaine, cannabinoids, and cacao, where is there any poop mentioned for anyone to be eating?

    Business cards are for business... giving them to any woman who isn't a prostitute doing business feels way too formal to be asking for a date. Just my opinion but seems like it'd go into a wallet to be forgotten like most of the business cards people get from people they DO want to talk to.

    No reason it wouldn't be. Ground up vs tree down is more about if controlling a jump or a fall comes before the gliding.

    Personally I see the researchers who place bat locomotion as most analogous to how pterosaurs would've moved, and then further reason that our evidence points more towards bats being tree down (but we're STILL not sure on that one because everything that flys evolves too fuckin fast) and that would also mean pterosaurs are PROBABLY also a tree down evolutionary path.

    Of course, I'm not a scientist with any sort of official opinions, but I also feel like your babies surviving a fall from a canopy by gliding would have more evolutionary weight and result in the super fast adaptation towards flight than controlling jumps.

    Plus fossils can form, emerge, and erode away before humans even evolved, thus removing our chances of knowing about species that DID have a chance to fossilize, all because bad luck said the geology between now and then would fuck our knowledge over.

    I seriously cannot have any degree of nuanced conversation here.

    Like I get it, we all know capitalism is bad, but it feels like every time I or anyone go towards discussing the steps that need to be taken to address current looming problems in the short term, someone has to jump in and shut it down with "capitalism bad >:[ " and tear down any idea presented because its not complete and total destruction of the current economic model.

    The result just feels like an echo chamber where no actual solutions get presented other than someone posting whole ass dissertations on their 33-step (where 30/33 steps are about as vague as "we'll just handle it") plan to fully convert the world to an anarchist commune.

    Edit: I still vastly prefer Lemmy and the fediverse and a whole, my complaint here is that many of you are TOO INTENSE. You blow up small scale discussion.
