    The reason we don’t see ‘pre-today humans’ walking around is that humans and other primates, like monkeys, have common ancestors. Over millions of years, different environmental pressures led to diverse evolutionary paths. Monkeys continued evolving into various species, just as our ancestors evolved into modern humans. It’s not a case of one transforming directly into another but branching paths from shared roots. #EvolutionExplained

        Right? The premise of this meme is dumb, but is Stoke-on-Trent the Florida of England? I feel like this could be a really funny joke and I just don’t know what it is. And I want to know.

    There are not millions of the creature on the left, they are just a common ancestor that long ago diverted in to humans and OTHER apes… You fucking idiot.

    Homo sapiens killed and outfucked all the other species extant in their genus, forgot, and then made this meme.

    Thanks for attending my TED Talk on the Fermi paradox.
