From wikipedia: A fossil (from Classical Latin fossilis, lit. 'obtained by digging')[1] is any preserved remains, impression, or trace of any once-living thing from a past geological age.
Answer: yes. It does count. Specifically carbonization.
Personal take: when I think of a "fossil", I think of the stereotypical mineralized bones. Like the T-Rex in the museum of natural history that most people have seen from various movies and TV shows. Thinking of human and human predecessor bones as fossils is just weird to me.
Shit like this is why I donate to Wikipedia.
Fuck off and die, nazi scum.
Well, he's not in prison for treason or anything related to classified documents being mishandled, soooooooo.......
Rule of law means nothing in the US anymore unless you're poor. If it mattered, we would have had different presidential candidates from the start.
If anyone still cares in the government, none of them care enough to actually do anything but stand by and watch. Maybe give a half-hearted "yeah way to take a stand" after the fact when someone gets dragged out of the room by the fascists.
Excellent domain name for your instance, by the way. Absolutely horrifying in just the right way.
almost complete immunity to any consequences for their actions.
legal immunity.
Fingers crossed more people wake the fuck up that nobody is coming to step in and save us, we have to do it ourselves.
We used to know how to fight dictators and fascism, but apparently all we can do now is protest, quietly, in our government mandated protest spot, miles away from anyone who can hear or see us. Anything else just wouldn't be proper.
Can't wait until they get declared domestic terrorists and alphabet squadded.
Just ask Reagan how Republicans feel about armed minorities.
Armed minorities are harder to oppress.
Well, I've only seen d9 and chappie, so I'm not too hopeful.
Honestly it's more "I'm so tired of remakes" but hey, I've been pleasantly surprised by movies before.
Fingers crossed its good.
Lmao this will be so neutered and watered down it will be unwatchable.
$5 says they make it a generic action movie with no deeper meaning than "bugs needed killing we just defended ourselves"
Why do we need to wait to know that violence against fascists is the appropriate response?
This sort of thinking makes me "sound like a teenager" because I'm "trying to be Edgy"
Lol no, anyone who genuinely thinks violence will not be needed because we will simply vote soon and it'll all be over is either sticking their head in the sand, naive as fuck, or their lifestyle depends on things continuing as they are and stand to benefit from it.
Like holy shit go to the 1800s and tell all the slaves if they want real change they need to keep their heads down and quietly protest in the back where nobody can see them. Similar vibes.
That way, he can just point to everyone else and say “see? They’re prolonging the war!“
Luckily this only works for two year iods and the dumbest motherfuckers on the planet.
Which is who is in charge of a lot of places, but you'd think normal people would never listen for a second.
I have a idea. We do our own scream test.
Let's turn his brain off permanently.
And we Don't bother listening for anyone complaining about it.
It's the perfect plan.
Okay so even though I read all this last night, I somehow missed the "2000 - (-2000) years" thus making the current geological age around 4000 years, and technically Pompeii would not count in the strictest definition. That said, had it happened 4,000 years ago, absolutely nothing would have changed. All the stuff would still be carbonized.
~~Also from Wikipedia in the (geological age) article: An age is the smallest hierarchical geochronologic unit. It is equivalent to a chronostratigraphic stage.[14][13] There are 96 formal and five informal ages.[2] The current age is the Meghalayan.~~
~~So again the answer is "yes it counts" but my personal take is "it feels weird to consider 4,000-10,000 ago multiple different geologic ages"~~
