Birds: A 360° turn is a complete circle so they'd keep going in the direction they're going in.

I see this alot on lemmy. "That's the joke". Ok well the joke was dumb
No, they do a 360 into dinos and moonwalk away.
Unless they‘re like Spinors rotating in an abstract space.
They'd go back and forth.
I watched a reliable documentary and humans turn into lizards, then leave their creepy babies on a planet alone
Ten Forward is losing containment, I see.
Listen, it was a celerity-induced accelerated somatic mutation rate, they're totally fine now. Warp 10 is super safe.
Very Vexing
So is zuckerburg just a more evolved human?
hes an android learning how to be human, and to control it one day through his glasses, he will try to be the machine god like in the matrix.
so you are in the android camp. i am in lizard camp
in order to control humanity, zuckerborg must be able to hook people up to machines.
or (hear me out) - get everyone to leave their mortal bodies and be replaced by lizard like limbs (which can grow back)?
Gods: circle back to fungi
All life on earth: gamma ray burst.
Fungi (filled up with that sweet gamma): "Whaa? Where did everyone go? Guys??" :(
the fungi remember, the fungi know all. The gamma radiation would trigger them to achieve sapience and recreate earth as it was.
I thought mammals will turn into anteaters?
Nobody has taken the fact we humans can basically control our own evolution through science and technology into account.
If we don't nuke ourselves, we might just become the Borg in 50 million years.
It's going to be catgirls and catboys. We all know it.
we'd be the opposite of the borg, we'd just be vrchat avatars with wifi antennae in our ears. Except for the amish of course, they'd still be doing their thing with larger beards and hair that grows into the shape of a hat.
Everything turns into crabs
Shark: shark
All will be crabs. Riding on trains, of course.
Crabs holding each other's pincers into a crab train.
Okay so what was fungus like 50 million years ago?
The first fungi were towering giant "trees" of which we've found remains. And before they arrived, wood didn't degrade.
fungi are like bacteria, they don't really change in shape. Remember that what we see is basically a limb that drops a bunch of babies, the actual fungi are just filaments in the dirt.
the only differently shaped fungus i can think of is lichen, which is a compound organism made of a fungus body with algae or cyanobacteria inside it.
So i guess that's the most sensible thing for them to evolve into, more complex compound organisms. They already parasitize and control stuff like ants so it's not that far-fetched to imagine them being part of the full lifespan, and hypothetically this could happen to all animals to the point that it's as normal as animals having mitochondria (which are separate organisms that were absorbed by our single-celled ancestors).
Imagine that, having a fungus that's just utterly interlaced through your body, like a secondary nervous system and extra layer to the immune system!
In a similar vein, it is so unfair that I won't get to see the night sky when the milky way and Andromeda collide in 3.5 billion years
All Tomorrows is about the future evolution of humans manipulated by aliens if you want that
And how about insects? Arthropods? Creatures capable of engineering their environment?
Ants, it's all ants
shan't
Ahh yes, frogs, the perfect species
Dang, this is a bit too absolutely correct.
