the tail wasn't used for the purpose of balancing, some researchers are saying

well obviously they just had to click their talons and a stressed looking edmontosaurus or some other from the precariat/lunch class of dinos would dutifully scamper to the local shitpit to wipe their arse for them with some 2 ply leaves!

they need to evolve into sub-micron sized ugly bassas with faces like anuses before harbouring ambitions to go into space ffs!

Carnian Pluvial Episode might be a new one to add to the big five, or six if you count the current one playing out in our brutish and short human timeline.

calzino, Wednesday, 23 September 2020 07:49 (three years ago) link

Probably not one of the "big 5" (or 6_). More of a "dwarf" mass extinction, like the end-Edicarian (541 Mya), Capitanian (260 Mya), or Paleocene-Eocene (55 Mya). Since the marine fossil record is so much more complete, that's generally used to plot extinction intensity, and there no real signal of the Carnian-Pluvial above the noise in that data set.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/0/06/Extinction_intensity.svg/1200px-Extinction_intensity.svg.png

Still, the first 17 My of the Triassic were possibly the worst extended period for life since the Snowball earths of Cryogenian. First the two great extinction pulses of the Great Dying (end-Permian), then another 9 My where life is scarce and gains little traction, and in another 8 million years, the Carnian Pluvial.

Haha I read the thread title and my first thought was “Does KM have anything to contribute to this topic?”

or imagine being murderer (aka predator animal trying to survive) and it's the end of the world right after you kill the other dino friend. you'd be like "is god punishing the world for what i did? how important am i?"

…And there it is.

I was just reading history of the Lisbon earthquake of 1755 in relation to the rise of atheism. The thought processes were very similar, but with a lot more god blaming.

recovering internet addict/shitposter (viborg), Wednesday, 6 October 2021 18:09 (two years ago) link

hahaha!

yeah, i mean in many ways the world makes a lot more sense if you think of it as god punishing people for one thing or another. especially if you think that god is flawed and constantly makes mistakes!
