Translation....The little ba****** were all over me and I wound up in emergency.
it’s good news. They should do the same thing with humans. Dig up the graves of people from thousands of years ago. We were stronger, smarter and just plain better. We are de-evolving.
Medievil bees practiced fudalism.
There was a monarch...or queen, then serfs, or worker bees, that labored to support the monarch and the hive.
Worker bees did not own property back then either.
In modern times though, bees have moved away from the antiquated feudalism model, and most hives have a democratic republic in some form, although they often will keep a figurehead queen in a nod to tradition and their roots.
I believe this, though in no position to prove it. Among reasons to suspect it, there's the complexity of ancient languages like Sanskrit, compared to numerous modern languages; and the physical vigor of our ancestors, versus generations of ease and indolence; and the world wars, plus the 1918 flu that severely struck the young adults.
Did they find any elves in the trunk?
We are de-evolving.
Are we not men?
We are Devo.
sweet...
If you look at the Neanderthals, we were stockier, had thicker bones and bigger brains. Amazing. Look at kids today- they don’t even know what gender they are. So weak. It might be the soy, the chemicals in the water supply, plastic that emulates estrogen- who knows. We are literally running on fumes. We have gone from wolves to poodles. If we actually could clone people properly, we could use DnA from our ancestors. Get DNA from battlefields because the best of us, the strongest have been pissed away in the endless wars. Unfortunately harvesting sncient DNA is beyond us. Clones always turn out weaker than the original. We used to produce Isaac Newtons, now we produce diddys
It’s the grown “men” with high voices who irritate me the most. Maybe the plastic, maybe the soy, who knows. Seems like only one in a dozen sound like a proper male. :(
What’s the buzz?
Tell me what’s a happenin’?
“We used to produce Isaac Newtons, now we produce diddys”
I wouldn’t call humankind’s 40 year leap from the horse and buggy in 1910 to atomic science in 1950 meaningless or trivial. A big bunch of “Isaacs” were busy at work in that era.
Why should you want to know?
Why are you obsessed with fighting
Times and fates you can’t defy?
If you knew the path we’re riding
You’d understand it less than I.
“Half a bee, philosophically, must ipso facto half not be. But half the bee has got to be, vis-à-vis its entity – d’you see? But can a bee be said to be or not to be an entire bee when half the bee is not a bee, due to some ancient injury?”
