What the Fuck??
this is fucking disgusting???
1. the ‘artist’ didn’t even create the 3D model, he bought it online for around $50, slapped a gold texture on it, and sold it to the oscars for god knows how much
2. how fucking dare they think this is a sufficient and good way to honour chadwick???
3. only half of the profits made from this goes to a cancer research charity
4. NFTs are the worst, anyway
Does anyone aside from tech bros think this is a good idea?
I CANT BELIEVE I HAVE TO SAY THIS BUR STOP CAPITALISING OFF CHADWICK BOSEMAN’S DEATH

What is island dwarfism and what are your favorite examples?
island dwarfism is actually just one half of a whole phenomenon, the flip side of this coin is called island gigantism and this story really can’t be told without it!
basically, island dwarfism/gigantism is a descriptor of the effect on animal populations when they get stranded on an island for a few million years and evolve to fit their new limited biome! when this happens, large animals tend to become smaller (due to the limited resources on an island) and small animals tend to become larger (due to the lack of natural predators).
island gigantism and island dwarfism sort of work together in this way to force animals into an equilibrium state. this effect has given some truly bonkers results over the eons, including pygmy mammoths on the channel islands off california:

and giant rabbits on an island in the mediterranean:

my favorite example of island dwarfism in particular though is the dwarf elephants of cyprus, believed to be the source of the legend of the cyclops.
<art src: Julio Lacerda>
How do dwarf elephants relate to cyclops legends, exactly? I just... can’t see the connection here.
dwarf elephants went extinct in a volcanic eruption about 12,000 years ago, but they left plenty of bones kicking around for humans to find! and if you were an early human sailor just wandering around an island beach stuffing clams into your pants and you happened to stumble across THIS:
...you could very easily believe that you were looking at the skull of an extremely large dude who had exactly one giant eyeball and also some pretty scary teeth.
and, as several people in the note have pointed out, island dwarfism has actually even produced a single human species: homo floresiensis!
these 3-foot-tall humans were descended from a population of homo eructus that went and got themselves island-locked on the indonesian island Flores for 100,000 years or so, and reduced in size in order to compensate for the limited resources.
they were indeed true humans, being in the same genus as modern humans, homo! aside from the size difference, they probably weren’t all that different from you, except that social media hadn’t been invented yet. like you, they understood abstract concepts and had hopes, fears, and dreams for the future.

unfortunately though homo floresiensis was ultimately also a casualty of a volcanic eruption, disappearing from the fossil record some 50,000 years ago during an island-leveling event and leaving only bones and tools behind.
volcanic activity, by the way, is the number one reason why evolving into an island niche is often a TERRIBLE idea.
this is you in a mainland biome:

Gotta say, the trend of “Politicians play video games” AOC began started off strong, but it really should have stopped when Mitch McConnell started getting into Doki Doki Literature Club.

Okay but like The absolutely scalding commentary on the fact that a robot who doesn’t feel emotions is better at being a partner than most men because he actually fucking changes diapers and is emotionally available I love this movie
Good ace husband terminator is my favorite thing of 2019
