"#this implies that the entire tetrapod lineage had some kind of external ears and reptiles and amphibians just lost them at some point" Oh, no, that article does not imply this. It isn't saying that we have had external ears since our fish ancestors, just the the type of cartilage in our ears originated in the gill structures of fish and over the course of our evolution migrated to form the pinna of our ears. Tetrapods certainly had not evolved pinnae, they came much, much later. They are a mammal exclusive.

Wizards are not naturally immortal, in fact creating their own form of immortality is their graduate thesis.

the thing about the mummy movies is that you really spend most of the time thinking "wow brendan fraser's character is so cool" or "man oded fehr is so mysterious and heroic" when the fact of the matter is that these two

are the absolute most batshit insane heroes in the entire franchise

these two are intellectual loner siblings with archeology backgrounds who read and speak ancient egyptian, hire a dude directly out of prison to take them to a lost city of gold, and fight mummies literally with their bare hands. twice.

no one in these movies stands a chance against the carnahans. frankly they're lethal in how willing they are to make the absolute and most undeniably deranged decisions. jonathan pickpockets a dude on fire. evy's resurrected from the dead and immediately remembers how to use sai. they're racking shotguns from a cliff in this scene and then proceed to blow away half the antagonists.

rick and ardeth should be so lucky

very strange phenomenon now that many people have learned online not to pet service dogs is that they walk by little bird and me, wave their hands at little bird, and say in a baby voice "oooohh you're so cute! you're so cute! i'm not going to pet you because i know you're working! ooohhhh puppy puppy puppy, i want to pet you but i'm not allowed~" and i have to tell them what they're doing is literally as distracting as petting her. this happens almost every single time i'm out with her.

When people say "identifying as intersex is just like identifying as a man or a woman" they forget that

Intersex is not a gender it's a descriptor for a person's body

We have the words cis and trans to differentiate between whether or not someone was assigned or transitioned to a certain gender or bodily state This dichotomy does NOT EXIST for the term intersex. Intersex exclusively refers to a birth difference.

There are like 12 different labels for transitioning to have mixed sex traits. Just use one of those.

If intersex is used non-exclusively and just refers to any trans person, the only way we can talk about our unique struggles being born sex variant is to refer to ourselves with pathologizing terminology like DSD.
