sometimes I wonder if I wouldn't be such a shut-in right now if I had socialized more in college. which would've maybe been a lot easier if I hadn't been a classist asshole who went to a c hristian uni instead of the local community college (which were apparently my only choices- at least, that's what my parents say- on account of COVID moment). I think it's either that or I shouldve locked in when I was 12*

*arguably I put more effort into things at 12 than in college

I missed the release date anniversary but I finished monk 👍 go my yellow.

Finished almost everything THEN broke my phone stylus. So a lot of the work on the mouth ref was done by finger -.-

Here then is our pig. Representative of a population of hogs released in a nice temperate area on the warmer side, pesky humans nowhere in sight.

[a-book-of-creatures]

Of course the first thing these pigs will do is get bigger. Stands to reason. And if you’re the toughest, most adaptable ungulate in a landscape cleared of most ungulates, why not take advantage of that?

[a-book-of-creatures]

With great size comes great reposeability. It’s gonna need meatier legs than that to support it. I’m thinking its feet will form big cushiony pads to hold its weight.

[a-book-of-creatures]

Another problem is overheating. I don’t think just being hairless is enough. So since they’re in a pretty warm place, why not give them big fan-like ears? Ears work great to diffuse excess body heat, so let’s give them those.

[a-book-of-creatures]

But I’m just adding things on, really. What are some things pigs already have? Oh, I know! Tusks! Pigs use their tusks for defense. At this size they would still be used for fighting, but now can fill a lot of roles, like digging or bark stripping. Why not have females be attracted to bigger tusks too? These giant pigs could have really big tusks for display!

[a-book-of-creatures]

What’s something else pigs have? Snouts! That amazing, sensitive nasal disc! A really big pig could use an even more sensitive snout to pick up things. Let’s make it really long so it can reach things on the ground, freeing up the need for a long neck and allowing the head to get as big and heavy as it needs. And let’s make the tip really sensitive, give it “fingers” to manipulate things. Pigs are smart, surely they would get even smarter with a dexterous appendage!

… hmm why does this look oddly familiar. This can’t be right.

why does famous puzzle game dynomite from popcap game dynomite skip the vast majority of the paleozoic in regards to its combo names. like i bet they only included cambrian cause it sounded cool like there weren't even dinosaurs yet. not even close.

i feel sooo bad for the bald eagle she's just a girl who likes fish but 300 years ago a bunch of slave owning settler colonialists claimed her and now shes a symbol for the worst people on earth

damn daniels post is irrelevant to it being international women's day btw. other than the fact the joke was at the very least popularized, if not invented, by Cool Women Online (I'm not 100% sure who came up with the concept I'm sorry). i don't think women should be laying that many eggs at once that's just a really big nutrient sink it's probably not healthy for them. unless maybe the women in question are like eusocial insect queens or something. but it would be fine if they just didn't want to like if they got surgery to stop laying eggs or something cause they didn't want to anymore. #respect. men can keep laying though idk that's not important rn :/
