𓀐 @Eo+ugShR: I don't really get evolution. I mean I read this book, very interesting, but I don't really understand why every animal isn't intelligent. It seems like the most useful trait by far and one that would be easily selected for since smarter creatures would have a better survival rate. Random mutations of things like air-breathing lungs and wings would be way harder to select for. Let's talk wings for a second. Birds come from reptiles, I can buy that.

The list goes on and on. Anyone trying to give you some black and white 5 dot point list of how it works is pants on head retarded.+
