I hate when idiots discover something

we aren’t even sure of what exact species humans evolved from other than it being related to the one chimpanzees evolved from, or how, where, and why it became human over time. no sure bet human ancestor has ever been found, only potential offshoots and cousins that fit the stereotype of progressive evolution. none explain our distinct-among-monke adaptations that are only found in marine mammals and mammals with marine ancestors.

if man can not know himself there could be dozens if not hundreds of branches of life he is too ignorant and dumb to even guess at and paleontology as you know it is hilariously incomplete.

The remnants of entire undiscovered kingdoms of life were probably destroyed by strip mining.

>This finding casts doubt upon the fungal affinity of Prototaxites, instead suggesting that this enigmatic organism is best assigned to an entirely extinct eukaryotic lineage.

Groovy. But something mycologists would best understand.
So I imagine Prototaxites are a sister lineage to animalia and fungi in the Opisthokonta? Perhaps some extant relatives still but undetected.

I meant secondary idiots like OP

>>5098920
Yeah bro, I learned about le giant fungi from reddit a decade ago, can you believe these fucking newfags trying to butt into our prototaxites community just like that?

>>5098920
yes anon

EVERYONE should be born knowing EVERYTHING

oh fuck off faggot

he's probably mostly talking about the blubber-form fat we build up, which I think evolved to protect the abdominal wall from being punctured with sharp sticks. Whoever our ancestors were, they stabbed other too. The lack of body hair is another thing, which I don't have an explanation for. One thing the aquatic ape theory has in its favor is the reproductive organs that work underwater, for intact males at least. I think we're more buoyant than any of the great apes too, we can escape bigger stronger monkeys by swimming.

Hear me out... Land Corals.

>fat
Most common in wh*tes and least developed in subsaharan africans because its an insulation and energy storage trait developed after we lost the hair thing to be pursuit hunters. Body hair also correlates with climate in most cases. Plus there are many aquatic and semiaquatic mammals that are very dense like hippos or those southeast asian islanders who dive for pearls all day. needing fat for bouyancy is only really a factor if you swim long distance which doesnt help you get food and most humans will never need to do. You cant even escape predators that way because almost all carnivorans willing to take a swing at a protohuman will happily swim after you. You arent outpacing a tiger or bear.

Protaxites were the last member of the Gaboniota family before their final extinction.

I thought it was so we could sweat more, for hunting across open plains.

Deboonked.
