the errant noise that is your specific dna is irrelevant.

Could you please edit the title to contain the entire shower though, as per rule 2

But you just said you’re breaking it.
WarmSoda@lemm.ee 8 months ago
It’s concluding, not breaking.
schmidtster@lemmy.world 8 months ago
A lineage that has concluded is broken. You can’t have both.

Unless you have siblings. Then you’re the less successful evolutionary branch that died out.
Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 8 months ago
With or without siblings, that’s the more accurate way of looking at it than OP’s idea that they are the pinnacle of fitness because their line ends with them.

Interesting point. I do have siblings, but they’re half siblings. My father only had 1 child but my mother had 3, including yours truly. My paternal uncle had 3 children and my maternal aunt had 2. None of my siblings or cousins have had children yet but also they’re still young, 4 are in their 20s and 3 are in their teens. Statistically at least one of the 7 will so yes you’re right, it’s likely that at least 1 and possibly both lines will carry on, and that I’ll be a branch of a family tree some future relative may map off to the side which ends with just me. Think I might freeze some sperm…

Look at all you’ve accomplished and then think of the hundreds of generations that came before you all leading to this.

Yup, I want to be able to time travel just so I can show off my bidet to my ancestors and make them proud

“What an incredible thing to have invented!”
“Well I didn’t invent it”
“Well then, what a marvelous thing to have built! With your own skilled hands!”
“Well I uh I’m not so good with my hands. This was built in a factory”
“But then we are amazed at your modern intellect, to understand such a thing’s inner workings!”
“To be honest I don’t even know how it works”
