Oof, shoulda evolved.
Those ugly bastards got milked so that we could live. They really did help save our ass during the pandemic
Can someone explain what is going on here?
Horseshoe crab blood is used to test vaccines for contamination.
Maryland sends its regards 🦀
Looks yummy what are they drinking?
Some kind of blueberry drink, looks like. Through their backs.
Blue drink enema goes hard
They just have already ate the boba.
Lore-accurate Lunacid mana potions
At least the nautilus listened
He didn’t. All but one of his diverse descendants were wiped out along with the dinosaurs, relatively “recently”.
I mean if you want to suck the fun out of it only 4/22 of horseshoe crab species survived.
Saying any species not evolving for millions of years is a misnomer anyway. A living fossil only superficially resemble ancient species. Since both nautilus and horseshoe crabs are considered living fossils I thought it’s a fair comparison.
But this is a silly little comic ultimately about the existential dread of modern human life so this level of pedantry isn’t needed.
More like add all the fun, that’s interesting!
They are the true blue bloods of the animal kingdom, they are already at the pinnacle.
Coelacanth started going with them then stopped, figuring horse shoe crab knew what was up
Must be fun winning evolution off the hop
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 life through evolution ended up miserable, toiling away oppressed by their own kind. A fate no one at the time could have imagined. We are these spawns.
I like triops.
I’m not sure I understand. There’s a nautilus, croc, shark, trilobite - so is the point that non of them really evolved? I feel dumb today.
