Iirc the closest modern day relative is some form of sea slug. How you go from spore to slug has got to be a wild journey

Happened all the time. It just depends on the environment. Check out basically anything on the “Tully monster” if you want to know more.
Tully monsters are actually even older than OPs fossil and we have no idea where they came from or where they went, from an evolutionary perspective.

What about an opposite bridge where you cross under the river? Some sort of tubular subterranean structure. We could call them opposite bridges.

A planet is a pen without fences. You just have to expand your perspective. You’ve obviously never interacted with a farmer in your life if you’ve never heard them brag about how many animals they have on the property. And those are just the ones they can count. Im sure some crazy farmer somewhere in India would be mad proud of how many rats he’s got running around. They’re holy in certain parts.

The pic says “of all the mammals on earth”. It’s exactly as i said with the pen, just scaled up to a 3d spherical planetary sized pen. The numbers I’m talking about don’t change.
There are WAY more rats than cows. Period. They’re on every continent except Antarctica, and there might be some weird subterranean prehistoric voles huddled around a hydrothermal vent pool or some shit.
OP just needs to add a qualifier to the graphic. Anything along the lines of “with respect to biomass” right at the start

Okay, so you have 240 rats and one cow in a pen on a farm. How many mammals are in the pen?
This survey would answer that the pen is 90% cow and 10% rat, therefore there are 9 times as many cows as there are rats.
In reality land, where the rest of us live, would say that there are 241 mammals in the pen and only 1 of them is a cow.
You see why I’m calling bullshit by the way this is worded?

OK so how many tons of cow are accounted for by whales?
Or does the survey cherry pick land animals too?

Source?
Im gonna go out on a limb and say this is udder cowshit. Rats are mammals, as are raccoons, squirrels, and whole fucking masses of little basically unfarmable varmints. You’re telling me that there’s like 3 farm cows for every wild rat on earth?
Horse. Shit.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
Well and the amazing sloppy toppy pudding poppy.

Agree. Did not get sucked in like subnautica, which is weird because it’s basically a small reskin and new (but much smaller) map.
It should have worked, but it very didn’t.

Being dumb enough to let your infant die has a direct effect on the gene pool. Unfortunately, we only have a 50% success rate here. The other one might grow up to cook even more babies. Only time will tell.

Darwinism is pseudoscience?

Idk man baby Hitler totally deserved to go out that way imo. Mussolini, Netanyahu, and Stalin too while we’re at it. Not every baby is destined for greatness.

Nature is healing. We don’t need every brain dead genetic abomination reproducing to make more brain dead abominations. Let Darwinism take its course. That’s what trumps mom should’ve done with captain bonespurs.

You just need a union job. I just started mine and my first day I find out we’re getting a new contract with $1/hr raises yearly for the next five years, a new boot benefit of $250 a year, better per diem on travel, and better compensation while traveling.

The majority of these people should be in retirement homes. Bad ones.
