how many times has a bipedal animal evolved back into a quadruped
Me when I run up the stairs on alll fours when no one is watching
i love that we and cats share pareidolia (seeing patterns where they dont exist), but instead of seeing faces in everyday objects like us, they see snakes
that computer cord? snake. string? small snake. cucumber? short fat straight snake
snake pareidolia is one of the strongest things in human minds too! people report freezing mid-stride before being consciously aware of a snake in front of them, and the same happens with coiled rope, etc. in humans and other primates. it’s even been proposed that the need to detect snakes was a factor in the development of primates’ insanely good color eyesight
It’s because snakes are wonderful and we must stop and admire them at any cost
The fact humans can’t eat grass to survive in the wilderness is a failure of evolution
Are you out there eating grass and trying to justify it again?
