I have devolved

they probably had their own meta network to shit post on back then. We'd never know

For real. Hundreds of millions of years of evolution and I'm supposed to believe dinosaurs didn't have advanced civilisations or maybe even developed space travel and simply fled the planet?

Humans by comparison are considered "advanced" in like 300k years.

Apparently, time is such a bitch that even if an advanced non human civilization flourished in the past, we wouldn't have any way to know, since any evidence pointing towards it would already be long gone

And it will end with me

Its an actual theory in fact. That people have considered for years

And its inspired things like an episode of I think star trek Voyager. Where they meet aliens who actually turn out to be a species that evolved from dinosaurs on earth and then left and never went back. Only to randomly millions of years later accidentally bump into the Voyager crew

We were engineered by aliens to mine gold. Animals wouldn't naturally evolve into what we've become.

3 billion years ago, life was so worried about no horny that life didn't horny at all. If you ever felt forever alone, you would just split into a clone.

We have animals still around that are as old or older than the dinosaurs - like crocodiles and sharks - and they plainly are not sentient either.

Evolution does not invariably lead to sentience. In fact, given the state of humanity and the planet, there is a credible case to be made that sentience is an evolutionarily recessive trait, as any species that develops it inevitably winds up killing themselves off after a few hundred thousand years due to overuse of resources and/or developing and using destructive technologies capable of wiping themselves out.

After all that, it ends with me

And that is a good explanation for why we aren't finding evidence of aliens. One theory is most if not all civilizations end up destroying themselves once they reach a certain point in advancement. I think of it like a test, one that probably like 90% of civilizations fail. Then maybe if you manage to pass, you get to live in Star Trek

Yeah, there's a theory about that as well, called the Great Filter.

If they had this sort of advanced tech the remnants of it wouldn't have vanished. There are no pollutants left in the soil like we observe from the real industrial revolution.

I bet they're proud of us. Jealous, even.

it's all been downhill since we made the leap to eukaryotic cells

The idea that shitposting evolved from life randomly spawning from amino acids sitting around in sunlight just makes no sense to me, but it's all we got.
