Must be fun winning evolution off the hop

Ironic it’s a nautilus talking about evolving

Crocodile, shark, pill bug… They’re all creatures that are now famed as “living fossils”. Even looks like a coeleocanth fin in one of the panels.

What’s the guy on the computer supposed to be about?

Something about the drudgery of modern existence, I suspect.

That’s what they evolved into. Crab is happy staying a crab

The implication is that the crab is content with it’s life but the spawn of some of those seeking a better like through evolution ended up miserable, toiling away oppressed by their own kind.

I’m not sure I understand. There’s a nautilus, croc, shark, trilobite - so is the point that non of them really evolved?
DarkCloud@lemmy.world 4 weeks ago
Triops (tadpole shrimp) have been around longer, they’re the oldest living fossil (360 million years), and they only live for three months at a time, and are still around today.
