    They are forgetting that TERRIBLE design choice where if you accidentally bite the inside of your cheek it swells up making it easier to bite it on accident again and again.

      There’s also the weird decision to put a bunch of easily-bruised bones in your butt which would normally be used for a tail.

      I once had a creationist defend the coccyx as being necessary for keeping muscles together. That was fun.

    Other species already do these things smh.

      We used to do the vitamin c but then were like its too easy to get elsewhere why bother.

    • Eating and breathing pathways no longer intersect. This should prevent the bug when food could block the airway and result in death.

      Yeah, it’s crazy to me that people believe we were “intelligently designed” when our food hole and breathing hole are so close that we can only use one at a time, and that our waste dumping grounds are right next to the amusement park.

        you mean the slightly more muddy amusment park, that is next to the new, purprose built one, right?

      This is actually a result of changes to our larynx and stuff, which allows us to make such a variety of sounds when speaking. In other animals (and human babies), the air and food tubes are physically separated at rest. But in humans, our epiglottis can’t properly keep things separate because our larynx is further down in our throat.

      Wasn’t this a compromise that allows speech? Babies can drink and breathe at the same time.

      Agreed, that shits rough on people. Impacts of teeth and post partem. Yet a funny thing there is that we can tell you down to the day you were impregnated by the growth of the fetus.

      ironically we may well have been the only somewhat intelligently designed animal for a long time, since there’s a pretty good argument that we’re self-domesticated.

      A lot of Bioluminiscence, but Infrared light as almost in any living be, which we can’t see without special devices.

      Structural weakness not only in the lower back, but also in the knees. The human being still has many reminists of an quadruped, as one of the younger species. He still has a way to be optimized as bipedo. Lower back and knees are still not optimized for this, apart of some other static and organic problems. We are still in phase beta.

        It’s different from the blackbody radiation that body heat produces.

        Evolution doesn’t follow the rules of intelligent design anyhow. If they did, we would all be crabs.

    • Suffocation sensation is now tied to a lack of oxygen instead of an abundance of carbon dioxide.
    source
    • Hoimo@ani.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Would that fix our carbonmonoxide weakness?

      source
      • JackbyDev@programming.dev ⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

        It wouldn’t make carbon monoxide less poisonous to us, but depending on how sensitive the sensation of suffocation is made it would help us realize something is wrong and maybe even eliminate the need for carbon monoxide detectors.

        Carbon monoxide isn’t only dangerous because it’s not oxygen, but because it disrupts our blood’s normal process of absorbing oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. My laymen understanding is that it sort of jams the door lol. As opposed to things like nitrogen which merely gets in the way but don’t disrupt the process.
