#evolution#once was typesetting a lower-grades science book and the author (a TEACHER) had the absolute GALL to write that#“the kit fox's large ears are designed to cool them in hot desert temperatures” (or something—the word “design” was definitely in there)#went at that with so many !!!!s and post-its and long explanations about how “design” should NEVER be used in a lesson on evolution#thankfully the editor agreed with me... but how did that make it past the first round of editing in the first place huh????#if humans were intelligently designed it was by a AAA game designer on an unrealistic schedule who didn't realize until after release#that it would not be possible to fix all the blatant issues through post-release patches so they wrote propaganda#in an effort to hide the problems by trying to re-frame everything as “features” instead of “bugs”
