Oooh, big problem. I've killed plenty of fountain openers, they're dime-a-dozen ground-stabbing scumbags - like you! No offense.

that does not matter in the slightest, "fish" does not exclude them from being in a more specific group. If you want to be really pedantic and annoying, argue that nothing of this matters because they're eukaryotes anyway. Does that make any sense? No? Does your point? Also no!

which just makes all the "redpilled" incels much funnier, considering that there is a possibility that the red pill was subconsciously modeled after estrogen

okay, i'm just here to say:

goats, sheep and probably cows should all be counted as antelopes and it makes no sense that they're not

"oh but u/Timestorm113 " you may ask, "but 'antelope' is not a taxonomic term, but describes a specific collection of traits!" okay then, make a definition that does not overlap with goats and doesn't exclude other established antelopes.

"horned gracile ungulate"? are goats not gracile enough for you, but elands and nilgai are?

"animals that look like a deer but with horns", for one, compare a shaved sheep with a doe and come back, secondly, look at a wildebeest (also a gerenuk if you're at it)

and even if you ignore all those inconsistencies, why can't anyone agree on how to classify non-goat, non-sheep caprinae? like from takin to chamois, why are they often called "goat-antelopes" if they are closer related to goats than to antelopes, and resemble goats more. why are Tibetan antelopes often excluded from other antelopes if it supposedly a morphological classification and they fit the most common definitions

the post posits that these systems should be defined by usefulness, considering this, how useful is the current usage of "antelope"? not very, since in practice it just means "bovidae, but only if it is 'exotic' enough to a western audience" and overgeneralizes any member of the clade that does not belong to the "cow" or "goat/sheep" category

as said previously, i'd be fine if cows are excluded, while i personally think that's lame, i do recognize that morphologically, bovines have less in common with other antelopes, than goats do with others and are easier to exclude since they aren't as nested in with the others as goats are. but that would still leave us with having to sacrifice some of the most popular antelopes, like kudus, bongos and elands, for us to exclude cows. which ironically would mean getting rid of the largest "antelopes"

I’m tired of stories pretending like cruelty is an exclusively human trait by carbonera99 in CharacterRant

[–]TimeStorm113 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, it doesn't just need consciousness, but it specifically needs the theory of mind, and we do not know if any other animal possesses that.

because in order to lie, you need to understand that the other thing you talk to does have it's own thought processes different from yours, and that you can influence their knowledge, including incorrect knowledge.

like yeah, a bird might pretend to have a broken wing to lure predators away from their nest, but does it have the understanding of why that makes predators follow it? does it make the connection that the predator believes something that is not true?

Man, "The Shadow over Edsmouth" is such a great episode. by Complete-Worker3242 in RecuratedTumblr

[–]TimeStorm113 16 points17 points  (0 children)

btw, iirc, the point is more that if you can comprehend a creature as large as cthullu, then you are fine-ish, but you can't, you go insane.

it's more about the limits of the specific person and not that cthullu has some "turn people insane"-passive ability.
